After Reality: Halloween, Dodgers & Papa Robertson
This week on After Reality, Papa Robertson joins me as I catch up on life, motherhood, and the beautiful chaos of the holiday season with our three little ones.

I even share a recent pregnancy scare (because, of course, why not add that to the mix?). We also chat about the Dodgers’ historic game, and I dish a bit of reality TV news—including when you can expect to see Taylor Frankie Paul’s season of The Bachelorette. Hosted on Acast.

Catching Up After Reality TV: Anniversary Updates, Kevin Federline, MTV News & Bachelor Drama 🔥
This week on After Reality, I’m catching up on life after filming and getting back into the rhythm of everyday life post-reality TV. I’m sharing personal updates, including celebrating my five-year wedding anniversary with a much-needed parent getaway, and a heartwarming reunion with my friend and former Bachelor castmate, Casey Shteamer Patak.Then, I dive into Kevin Federline’s new book, You Thought You Knew, which really surprised me. I found it heartfelt and honest — more of a love letter to his kids than a money grab — as he opens up about his life, his relationship with Britney Spears, and what fatherhood has meant to him.And yes — I officially met my new AI co-host, Echo (I even found out what Echo was wearing… and might’ve said “I love you”). Stay tuned till the end for my thoughts on the latest Bachelor Nation headlines: Mel Owens hometowns, Gerry Turner’s tell-all, new engagements, and Rachel Kirkconnell on Extra Dirty. Hosted on Acast.
