“The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives” star Layla Taylor has a new love interest! Weeks after coming out as bisexual during a candid interview, the TV personality appeared to have confirmed who her new boo is in a new TikTok video.

Layla Taylor’s dating life has been a topic of conversation since the first season of “SLOMW” debuted on Hulu in 2024. Throughout the last four seasons, the mother of two has not only documented her divorce from Clayton Wessel, but she’s also dated Cameron Jolly and Mason McWhorter on camera.

On July 21, TikTok creator Kelsie Chesser posted a video set to a trending Beyoncé sound, with overlaid text that read, “When I slid into my girlfriends DM’s just hoping she was into girls.” Of course, “SLOMW” fans rushed to the comments to see whether she was talking about Taylor. However, they didn’t have to speculate for too long, considering Taylor commented, “Folded.”

Taylor recently shared a video of herself holding the hand of a woman off-screen. That video also featured overlaid text that shed more light on her newfound identity. “‘You’re glowing recently’ thanks I’m dating a woman now,” the text read. She even captioned the video, “Chivalry isn’t dead it’s w the lesbians.”

Layla Taylor Recently Came Out As Bisexual

According to a previous report from The Blast, Taylor recently came out as bisexual during an interview with Jay Shetty. During the conversation, the Hulu reality star said that she’s now “gay and bi,” confirming that she has romantic feelings for men and women.

Taylor told Shetty that she’s known about her feelings for women since she was a child, but she wasn’t able to act on them because of her upbringing. Over the last few years, though, Taylor has become more comfortable with who she is and said that she’d no longer live inside of a box. “I’ll be d-mned if I’m not able to be fully who I am,” she said.

Layla Taylor’s Breakup Helped Her Realize She Was Into Women

As mentioned above, Taylor has showcased her romantic relationships on camera over the last several years. In season 4 of “The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives,” viewers saw Taylor struggling in her relationship with McWhorter, who voiced his concerns about dating Taylor because of her two small children.

While speaking with Shetty, Taylor confirmed that she and McWhorter ended things and even revealed that their split helped her realize she was into women. “Honestly, I went through a breakup at the beginning of this year, and I feel like for just a long period of my life, I was constantly living my life for other people,” she said.

“Whether that was being a mom or I was in a marriage at one point, I was married. And I just feel like I was always fulfilling other people around me. And it honestly just caused me to never really focus on myself and never be able to really just sit alone with who I am as a person… And I think honestly that breakup was like a blessing in disguise because I feel like now I’ve been fully able to just focus on Layla. And yeah, just focus on who I truly am.”

Details About Apartment Building Death In Japan

According to ABC News 4, the woman who died was named Houra Inaba. Media outlets such as Japan Today said the 23-year-old passed away in the hospital after a 29-year-old Shinsei Taguchi landed on her as she walked along a sidewalk with a friend. The friend called emergency services. Inaba died from hemorrhagic shock at around 5:30 a.m., per Japan Today. Reports say the incident occurred at around 1 a.m. in the Sakae district of Nagoya, a city about halfway between Tokyo and Osaka. The area is reportedly packed with shops, office buildings and apartment complexes.

How Did The Fall Happen?

Unlike the 23-year-old woman, Taguchi reportedly survived the drop. However, per ABC News 4, he is still unconscious and in critical condition. At this time, investigators are still trying to determine what happened that caused Shinsei Taguchi to fall from the 12-story apartment building. It’s unclear whether he accidentally fell or intentionally jump and from which level.

Woman’s “Rope Jumping” Death Also Recently Went Viral

This story out of Japan has made its way across social media platforms. Many are expressing condolences for the victim’s family, while others are calling out the survivor, even alleging he should be charged in the death. The investigation is still pending.

Last month, another bizarre death of a young woman went viral on social media. 21-year-old Maria Eduarda Rodrigues de Freitas passed away during rope jumping activity in Brazil. Video footage shows the moment two instructors let her go with no safety cord attached, only to realize their actions a few moments later.  Though she reportedly survived initial impact with the ground approximately 130 feet below, she later died from her injuries. Also, officials charged three individuals in connection.

Whew, Roommates! The debate over Yung Miami’s hit song ‘Spend Dat’ isn’t slowing down. Nicci Gilbert, one of the voices behind the R&B group Brownstone, recently jumped into the conversation and shared her thoughts on the viral track. Now, with social media still going back and forth over Miami’s record, Trina has entered the chat with some words on how she should move going forward.

Trina Defends Yung Miami Amid Ongoing Debate Over ‘Spend Dat’

Recently, Trina pulled up to the ‘So Who Gon Say It’ podcast, where she addressed the haters, opened up about relationships, and reflected on how she has handled negativity and criticism throughout her career. During the conversation with Chella H, Trina also weighed in on the controversy surrounding Yung Miami’s hit song, ‘Spend Dat.’ Although she never mentioned anyone by name, Trina said she doesn’t understand why people keep criticizing Miami for simply making music. She also said she thinks speaking on whether ‘Spend Dat’ deserves Grammy recognition is going too far.

“Who are you to say she shouldn’t receive a Grammy. You’re not God. It doesn’t matter if you don’t like it. Keep your opinion, that’s fine.” Trina added, “But then these are the same people that are so Godly and so for the rights. If you are so right then you don’t even have the time to be distracted by that. If your so right this isn’t even in your ears. She’s just making music, that’s the only thing she’s doing nothing else.” 

She then encouraged Caresha to keep going, keep chasing her dreams, and to ignore the noise. Trina also pointed out that plenty of folks criticized the music Miami dropped before ‘Spend Dat,’ but now they can’t get enough of the record as it continues taking over the internet and airwaves. “Continue to win Yung Miami. Continue to grow, continue to flourish, continue to live your dream, live out fully what you got in this game to do. Stay humble and just keep living your life.” Trina said.

Nicci Gilbert Sparks Debate After Giving Her “Unpopular Opinion” On ‘Spend Dat’

Conversations about Yung Miami and ‘Spend Dat’ have kept social media buzzing all summer, but Nicci Gilbert took the debate to another level when she shared her thoughts on the record. Shortly after Yung Miami appeared at the BET Awards in June, Nicci hopped on Instagram and weighed in on the song’s influence. She told her followers that real creators deserve real recognition and explained that while she doesn’t believe ‘Spend Dat’ will push people to boost or scam, those issues continue to plague the culture. Nicci also made it clear that she wasn’t about to jump on the bandwagon just because everyone else was enjoying the song. “I’m not buying into the hype because everybody else is. Never have, never will!” 

Nicci later slid into her own comment section to double down, adding that although she doesn’t think Caresha is encouraging people to make certain decisions, she still believes music carries influence and can leave a lasting impact. “Music is too powerful to pretend like it doesn’t impact our Community & Culture . I hope more people take it seriously 🙏🏽,” Gilbert wrote. 

Social Media Continues To Sound OFF As The ‘Spend Dat’ Conversation Continues

Once The Shade Room posted the clips of Trina and Nicci Gilbert, the comment section lit up. Plenty of Roomies applauded Trina for standing up for Yung Miami, while others doubled down, saying ‘Spend Dat’ is a certified hit and Caresha deserves to enjoy her moment. Peep some of the reactions below.

Instagram user @bonnie_flame wrote, “I don’t understand what all the controversy is about !! It’s been wayyy worst music in the past and present .. stop hating on my girl lol 😤” 

Instagram user @therealdee27 wrote, “One thing about Miami we gone stick together! 🫶🏾😍 #SpendDat” 

While Instagram user @thamaniac wrote, “Trina well said 👏”

Another Instagram user @mrcoolbeardguy wrote, “That song plays every 5 mins on the radio even the country stations & latino station plays it 😂💯” 

Instagram user @mss.crystall wrote, “funny thing is nobody can’t stop what God has for you ..”

“The Bachelor” stars Catherine Giudici and Sean Lowe are navigating a frightening “new normal” after their eight-year-old son, Isaiah Hendrix, was hospitalized and diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. Giudici revealed that Isaiah spent four days in Children’s Hospital after his pediatrician noticed concerning symptoms during an annual appointment. Although the family faced tears, pain, and confusion, the mother of three said her “tough boy” maintained his playful personality through countless injections and an overwhelming lifestyle change.

Giudici shared the difficult update in a lengthy Instagram post on Tuesday. “This past week has been a rough one for the Lowes,” the 40-year-old reality star began. “Our precious boy Isaiah was admitted to Children’s Hospital and diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. Our wonderful pediatrician noticed some symptoms at our annual appointment that stuck out to her.”

According to Giudici, Isaiah had lost a significant amount of weight since his previous visit. He had also been drinking and urinating frequently, which prompted the pediatrician to investigate further. The child had lost 11 pounds despite otherwise appearing healthy and remaining active. The unexpected findings quickly transformed a routine appointment into a four-day hospital stay for Isaiah and his family.

The ‘Bachelor’ Couple Spent Four Days Learning About His Condition

Giudici expressed gratitude for the medical professionals who helped the family understand Isaiah’s diagnosis. “Thankful for the nurses, doctors and staff who gave us a 4-year college education on his condition in 4 days,” she wrote.

The four-day hospitalization required Isaiah to remain away from his home, siblings, and usual routine while his parents learned how to manage his condition. Although the experience was emotionally and physically difficult, she said Isaiah continued showing the fun-loving personality his family knows.

“He’s done all this without losing his playful spirit and a joy that doesn’t make sense,” she wrote. “A lot of tears, pain and confusion too, but he has been a trooper, no question about it.”

Catherine Giudici Calls Isaiah Her ‘New Hero’

The reality star concluded her emotional message by praising Isaiah’s strength and asking followers to keep the entire Lowe family in their thoughts. “Isaiah is my new hero, and I am so proud to be his mama,” Giudici wrote. “Prayers for him, his siblings and his parents are welcomed as we navigate this new normal. [red heart emoji].”

Giudici acknowledged that his siblings and parents will also need support as the family adjusts to a routine that currently feels unfamiliar. While she did not share additional details about his treatment, her post confirmed that he had returned home after spending four days in the hospital.

Catherine Giudici And Sean Lowe Met On ‘The Bachelor’

Giudici and Lowe became one of Bachelor Nation’s most enduring couples after meeting during Season 17 of “The Bachelor.” Lowe served as the show’s leading man in 2013 after previously appearing as a contestant on Emily Maynard’s season of “The Bachelorette.” Giudici competed for his heart alongside the other women and ultimately received his final rose.

The pair became engaged during the season finale before marrying in a televised ceremony the following year. They later welcomed their sons, Samuel and Isaiah, followed by their daughter, Mia. The couple has continued sharing pieces of their family life with fans long after leaving the franchise.

The Lowe Family Previously Endured Another Medical Emergency

Isaiah’s hospitalization comes after Lowe experienced a traumatic medical emergency involving the family’s former Boxer, Moose. The dog attacked Lowe twice within 12 hours, drawing blood and requiring him to visit the hospital emergency room. Lowe later revealed that his family was forced to rehome Moose.

“It was quite the ordeal,” Lowe said during a December appearance on Jordan Syatt’s podcast. “I was just telling someone I don’t really have PTSD,” he continued. “It’s funny because I’m such a dog lover and I’d never thought twice about putting my face in a dog’s face, but now I do think twice about doing stuff like that.”

Lowe said the repeated attacks left him thinking about what could have happened if Moose had targeted his wife or children. “The only PTSD I have is the thought of, ‘What if it had been my children,’” he explained. “He absolutely would have killed my children or my wife for that matter. I think about that quite a bit, but for the most part, I’m doing pretty good.”

The family had previously rehomed its Bullmastiff, Gus, after attacks involving Mia and Samuel. Samuel was bitten on the side of his head, resulting in an emergency room visit and a staple. “So, as much as I love that dog, I have to protect my kids first,” Lowe said at the time.

Now, Giudici and Lowe are confronting a different type of health crisis as they help Isaiah adjust to his diagnosis. Giudici made clear that despite the fear and upheaval of the past week, her son’s resilience has already given the family a reason to feel proud.
