Me too, girl. And why a surrogate for Marilu?

I do NOT want to get this great thread shut down (why can't we talk about Bruno??), but I also want to know the details on this, particularly what did Alec know and when did he know it.

She wanted a girl and she wanted to be able to breastfeed, hence getting pregnant (with random sex baby) at the same time as surrogate.

This is one celeb book I would actually read. Katie or Nicole.

There is an article on this about Katie with a lot of detail, although not everything. To summarize, her father was an attorney (I think family law) who helped her to get out.

Yes, I've read about that. Still a lot for a small town family law attorney to get her out of the grips of Scientology, but I'd still like to know more. I really want to know about Nicole. They were together something like 11 years and "infertile" when they adopted those 2 kids who have now disowned her since she freed herself from the church. She broke free and...they both (Tom and Nicole) had 1 and 2 biological kids within a year or so. She seems pretty "normal" and has really flourished, but a) I can't imagine her pain that those kids consider her a "suppressive person" and won't make any contact b) I just want to know about those 11 years. Katie wisened up faster and got her daughter out (in like, a SWAT team attempt to escape), and her daughter is a "suppressive person" who hasn't seen her dad in like 7 years. It's just so bizarre. I want a tell-all from Nicole.

And to add, Tom is widely rumored to be gay. How did these women get into this and out?

He was on some podcast where he was like, "what are the odds it would be ANOTHER boy?" Well, high. Got pregnant with a boy but had girl embryos so she transferred to a surrogate to "get her girl."

Add Palin to my pregnancy fakers list: Halle Berry, Kelly Preston (post-Jett), Beyoncé and Megan Markle.

I can buy that she wasn’t pregnant with Trig because there was so much weird stuff there, but who’s his real mom then? The math wouldn’t have worked for it to be the older daughter I don’t think. Bristol had her kid in December of 2008, and Trig was born in April of 2008.

There is absolutely something weird about Trig's birth. Did she not tell people she was pregnant because she originally planned to abort or adopt out the baby and then found out she was in the running to be McCain's running mate? Or was she really not pregnant -- even some of her friends and her security person have said that they don't believe she was pregnant. That said, the whole weird flight/drive/etc while she was allegedly leaking amniotic fluid is even weirder if she wasn't pregnant... If she was just covering for someone, why wouldn't she just fly home and then say she went into labor? Why would she make all of that up (which among other things made her look like a completely unfit parent who could have killed herself and the baby)? It's just so... odd all the way around.

My sister lives in AK, and during a visit in 2009 I went deep into the rabbit hole of information on that pregnancy. At the time, I came away convinced that the baby was the oldest daughter’s child. Wish I could find the most convincing article, but it’s been too many years and I can’t seem to dig it up.

I don’t think she was in the running to be McCain’s running mate until the 11th hour. She had plenty of time to get a secret, quiet abortion while she was still just the obscure governor of Alaska. I guess I could buy that Trig is the son of Track and whoever his girlfriend would have been? But that seems weird somehow too.

Katie used burner phones to communicate with her dad.

Say more! You think they're a PR couple?

NP. Totally, IMO. Every once in awhile he has to behave because word gets out.

I don't think it was fake. Music exec Tommy Mottola's ugly *** was married to prime Mariah Carey. Jay Z was/is loaded and had a lot of appeal to old millennial / young gen Z women like Beyonce. Do I think it's a loveless marriage now? Wouldn't surprise me.

You will never convince me that Jessica Chastain isn’t Ron Howard’s out-of-wedlock daughter. She looks just like Bryce Dallas Howard, and her birth name is Jessica Howard. The fact that everyone denies it just feels like gaslighting are this point.

Along these lines I would like to know:

1) What, exactly, Hybe gives to Dispatch and the other Korean tabloids to keep their artists (not just BTS but like, TXT, Seventeen, Enhypen, all those dudes, and their bazillions of trainees) out of the tabloids and away from dating scandals. Look up Dispatch D-Festa aka the “hostage concert.” Look up BTS’s continued attendance of The Fact Music Awards, which is a 1000% no-name thing but they go every year. It’s very sus and complicated. Also for any longer time K-ent fans, during one of the previous presidential administrations which was really corrupt, the government would literally use the tabloids to leak idol/actor dating news when another government scandal was about to break. It’s hard to find info about this now because k-ent wasn’t as big of a thing in the west back then, this was like 2014-2016 stuff. But following it at the time it 100% happened.

2) Are Jennie from Blackpink and G-Dragon really actually dating?!

JiKook. All of it: Japan. The Rings. Laguna. Rose Bowl. They won’t just deny it and end all the shipping.

Why not just have the girl embryo implanted in her? Or was that the ones she miscarried?

(Don't come for me, Swifties. Taylor is absolutely not reading a random DC parents forum.)

Tell us more!

During the pandemic, Taylor went on super lockdown (like most people), but while many other celebrities were seen out in public (masked) or posted lots of photos/videos of themselves, during the second half of 2020, the photos/videos of Taylor seem intended to obscure her midsection. (Examples: her photoshoot with Paul McCartney, her pro-Biden post, and the entire promotion of Folklore.) There are a number of videos/photos of her with a glass of wine, but many women who have tried to hide an early pregnancy know that lots of liquids look like wine. And then from November 2020 through early 2021, she's particularly quiet, with the exception of the release of Evermore (which was likely recorded at the same time as Folklore, and the promo photos continue to hide her midsection). And since about March 2021, she's gone back to wearing more form-fitting clothes, posting photos videos that don't obscure her midsection, etc.

Stepping back from that, she's in a 5+ year relationship with a guy that she was singing about marrying more than three years ago. And she's 31 and has said that she wants kids. Considering her desire for more privacy these days, the pandemic may have just given her a very convenient cover.

BUT she has instructed her Swifties to never speculate about her pregnancy status, so those who watch her closest and would be likeliest to notice these things would never say anything. So clever of her!

As an obsessed Swiftie, I can’t make the timeline work for her having had a baby then, but I do this that she and Joe are married and have been for a while. You can get a “confidential marriage license” in California.

This is from that same TS/PM photo shoot:

https://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.rollingstone.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2020%2F11%2FR1346_COV_Mom_1800px.jpg&imgrefurl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.rollingstone.com%2Fmusic%2Fmusic-features%2Fpaul-mccartney-taylor-swift-musicians-on-musicians-1089058%2F&tbnid=1ElUezcIq6IdmM&vet=12ahUKEwiJwKfNk4P3AhVRA50JHWzMCF8QMygAegUIARC2AQ..i&docid=myXK8NLt35FdqM&w=1484&h=1800&q=paul%20mccartney%20taylor%20swift&hl=en-us&client=safari&ved=2ahUKEwiJwKfNk4P3AhVRA50JHWzMCF8QMygAegUIARC2AQ

We haven’t really seen her since Red came out in November though so it would not shock me to find out later she was gestating a secret baby right now.

Oh man, I knew the Swifties would find this eventually...

Yes, I've seen the full article, including that photo. You might've noticed that I tried to stay away from picking apart photos of her body in my original post (and instead relied on how much hiding of her belly that she did), but since you insist: The looseness of her pants, her odd pose, and the creases around her midsection suggest she absolutely could have a belly there. Also, if she gave birth in, say, January 2021, and this photo was taken in October, she would have been ~6 months pregnant. I am a bit shorter than Taylor and do not have her popstar abs, but there are absolutely photos of me more pregnant than that in which you could not tell that I was pregnant.

Now, you might argue that someone on the set would have spilled the beans by now, but that argument would've been true for the original photo I posted. And we all know that Taylor keeps her circle pretty tight and her information locked down hard. So I'd say the jury is still out.

Right? You'd think there would be footage of this somewhere, or people talking. And who killed Jon Benet? Or kidnapped Madeleine McCann?

I think nearly everyone who has looked closely at the case agrees: it was the brother. And the parents covered it up.

Interesting. Jon Benet's brother. Any speculation on how he killed her if he did?

No one agrees on this. He was cleared.

By DNA

Wait, you guys aren't actually referring to the apology letter from Mary Lacy, are you? Oh dear...

This sounds stupid. Too many moving parts and a mere leak of this would be worth $100K, easily. If she wanted a secret baby, she'd pay someone to carry it. Duh. And where's the boyfriend she's allegedly been dating for five plus years? It's all weird.

Taylor is allegedly in the closet. It’s no coincidence that several of the men she’s been linked to are allegedly closeted as well. Jake, Harry, Joe Jonas, to name a few

Always here for the Gaylor rumors.
