2024's Wildest Reality TV Moments

Back in February, Love Is Blind season 6 made headlines when Chelsea Blackwell inaccurately named herself Megan Fox as her celeb look-alike.

The reality star told her blind date in the pods, Jimmy Presnell, that she was often compared to the actress, which got a visibly excited reaction from him on the other side of the wall. Even though Blackwell clarified that she didn’t really see much of a resemblance, fans have been roasting her for days, with many viewers calling her bluff and questioning whether people had really told her that before.

Jimmy’s decision to pick her over another connection, Jessica Vestal, led to an epic moment when Jessica told him he was going to “choke” and “need an EpiPen” when he saw her after he ditched her for Chelsea.

Spoiler alert: he was indeed enamored by Jessica and disappointed that Chelsea did not look like Megan Fox, and even though he was still attracted to his fiancée, he said she “lied” to him about her appearance.

Ultimately, Chelsea and Jimmy (not so shockingly) did not tie the knot.

Blinded by love, AD ignored all of Clay’s bright red flags and trusted him despite him admitting to having unpacked issues stemming from his father’s chronic cheating.

“I thought a lot of things about the marriage, I felt like with the timeline there were a lot of these things in my head and I felt like the one thing that I knew for sure was that me and AD had an electric chemistry, however, I just didn’t feel as though it was the right time for us to be married,” Clay told BOSSIP about his decision.

“I thought that some holes in our relationship weren’t addressed. A lot of stuff that wasn’t aired on film, a lot of stuff that I didn’t say, because I did want to make sure that she was presented in the best light. I didn’t want to talk about these certain things on camera because I just didn’t think it really mattered in the grand scheme of things.”

In the aftermath, despite calling AD “the love of his life,” Clay moved on quickly, namely with serial clout chaser Celina Powell and with adult film star Willow Ryder, at one point even being admonished by his mom for his bad boy behavior.

Clay later apologized to his mother for his antics.

Ashley was floored and seemingly heartbroken by the news, and the Internet collectively gasped, especially amid Tyler never disclosing the info about the pods and amid pictures of Tyler and his “unknown” children surfacing on the Internet.

On Oct. 20, Bri Thomas, the mother of Francis’ children, took to Instagram to allege that the 34-year-old accounting manager was actively involved in co-parenting their three adorable kiddos, Kyreaux, Kali, and Kamari. In a five-part video series, Thomas explained her relationship with Francis, noting that their first child was conceived to intentionally to assist Thomas and her ex-wife at the time.

Regarding their 5-year-old twin daughters, Kali and Kamari, however, alleged that they were conceived naturally from an unplanned pregnancy shortly before their firstborn turned one.

Despite the drama, viewers watched Ashley say “yes” to Tyler at the altar and stick by his side, even after he recently said he wanted Bri Thomas and “those kids” to leave him alone.

He and Ashley are still married to this day.

After exciting fans with news of her return to #RHOA for season 16, the excitement was cut short when Kenya announced in June that she was exiting the show. During a filmed event at her Kenya Moore Hair Spa, Kenya allegedly violated production’s code of conduct by blowing up photos of newbie Brit Ead seemingly performing oral sex.

Audio also leaked of Moore alleging that the #RHOA newbie was an escort who charged $1,400 for her “services” and rumors swirled that Kenya engaged in revenge porn, something she vehemently denied, instead saying she blew up the photos to “protect” her daughter.

Kenya was initially suspended for her actions before being booted from the show, and she’s adamant that she’ll be vindicated when #RHOA returns.

She has also apologized and took full accountability for her actions.
