SHOCKING ENTERTAINMENT NEWS ONLINE

ONE-HALF OF ROYAL REALITY COUPLE LANDS IN LOS ANGELES

But where’s the other? And why the rush?

by Talky Ted

Ever since The Marrying Kind’s Amanda announced that she was leaving Braden to join the Peace Corps, we’ve wondered what would happen to their show, scheduled to start filming at the end of May. Now, thanks to some astute Instagrammers, I’ve got the inside scoop.

Jen Reid, half of the famous “Jen and Justin” from The Fishbowl, landed in Los Angeles this morning sporting gorgeous long hair begging for an updo. Fans may remember that the couple met on one of the Network’s shows and became engaged on another, making them an obvious choice for a last-minute replacement. As recently as March, the couple had reportedly not set a date.

But is there another reason for the quick, secret trip? Jen, is that a baby bump or did you enjoy too many free cookies on the flight?

A spokeswoman for the Network said, “The show will go on,” but refused to elaborate. Jen did not return several voice mails. Justin could not be reached for comment. I managed to get ahold of his twin sister Sarah at her place of business. In response to my question whether Jen and Justin could expect their very own bundle of joy soon, she replied, and I quote, “Bite me.”

When does that girl get her own show?
