Scheana Shay considered warning Jesse Metcalfe about her memoir
The 40-year-old reality star has discussed her romance with Jesse in My Good Side, her new memoir, but she didn't feel the need to give him any kind of warning.
Scheana - who is now married to Brock Davies - told E! News: "I don't say anything bad about any of these guys that I felt like I needed to give them a heads up on.
"The only person I had to sit down with was [ex-husband Mike] Shay. I wanted to tell him about it in person. That was the only person I really felt I owed a conversation to."
Scheana actually had the opportunity to discuss her memoir with Jesse prior to its release. However, she ultimately decided against it.
She said: "I've ran into Jesse Metcalfe a few times recently at events and I've said 'hi'.
"I met his girlfriend. The last time I ran into him, it was the night before we were announcing the book and I made a joke to Brock—they've played poker together before too. I was like, 'Do I tell Jesse he's in the book?' And he's like, 'You're joking, right?'
"I'm not gonna go and be like, 'By the way, nice to meet your girlfriend, you're in my book.'"
Scheana has previously dated the likes of John Mayer, Shemar Moore, Shane West, Jesse McCartney, and Adrian Grenier. And Scheana insists she doesn't regret discussing her love life in the memoir.
The TV star joked: "Those were some fun times. And even though I am a married mother writing this book, it wouldn't be a complete memoir if I didn't touch on my Hollywood hoe days, because it was like six years of those."
Meanwhile, Jesse recently revealed that he regrets being mentioned in Scheana's memoir.
The 46-year-old actor - who dated the reality TV star back in 2007 - told E! News: "I run into Scheana from time to time at events and stuff like that. She's a super sweet girl and I'm happy for her success. I guess it's a story worthy of print, but it's not a story for me."

Mark Ferguson boycotts Logies after nomination snub
Seven newsreader Mark Ferguson is said to be steaming that his longtime understudy Michael Usher has been nominated by bosses for a Logie Award. According to network sources, Ferguson feels slighted Usher has been nominated over the prime time news anchor for a Logie in a new category, the Ray Martin Award for Most Popular News or Public Affairs Presenter. The award will be presented for the first time on Sunday night and sees Usher, Seven's only nominee in the category, pitted against Nine's Ally Langdon, Tara Brown and Peter Overton and the ABC's Sarah Ferguson and David Speers. The nomination comes after Usher was tapped to appear on the current series of Seven's reality program Dancing With The Stars where he has emerged as a fan-favourite and, remarkably, a finals contender. On Thursday insiders told that as a result of the simmering rivalry between the two veteran newsreaders, Ferguson had declined an invitation to attend the upcoming 65th Logie Awards which are set to screen on Seven. The snub comes a week after Seven's commercial rival Nine claimed the news ratings in the Sydney market for 2025, a market Seven has not won since Ferguson was appointed anchor of its 6pm news bulletin in January 2014. Nine also claimed the first half of the ratings year nationally in five capital cities. Ferguson's tenure has long been debated internally at Seven as the network's year-on-year losses to Nine in the news hour have mounted up. As far back as 2016 Seven's longtime director of news Craig McPherson publicly championed Ferguson, telling media outlets the Tamworth reporter with the film-star good looks could have the job 'for as long as he wanted it'. However McPherson would come under increasing pressure from engaged Seven proprietor Kerry Stokes to introduce changes to the nightly news bulletin. In September 2024, following McPherson's departure in April that year, Stokes persuaded Macpherson's acquiescent replacement Anthony De Ceglie to welcome a joint-anchor, Angela Cox, to the desk. The decision is said to have bruised Ferguson. According to sources the relationship between the two newsreaders has not been an easy one and now Stokes is once again agitating for change. Sources are adamant the Seven chairman wants to see Usher, who now enjoys a national profile courtesy of his Dancing with the Stars turn, appointed to the plum role. Seven of Foxtel's eight Real Housewives of Sydney (RHOS) are understood to be shattered at being informed just one member of the program's cast will be going to this year's Logie Awards. Fashion-obsessed program stars Krissy Marsh, Nicole Gazal-O'Neil, Terry Biviano, Caroline Gaultier, Dr. Kate Adams, Victoria Montano, Martine Chippendale and Sally Obermeder had spent months contemplating their couture options for television's glamorous night of nights when a brief missive from an executive, the head of unscripted/development at RHOS co-production partner Matchbox, arrived in their inboxes. In the letter, the executive begins by softening the women up with a note of congratulations. 'Congratulations to each of you on the Logies nomination for RHOS,' she wrote. 'It's a show we are very proud of and we are grateful for all your hard work that helped make it such a great series.' Then came the bitter pill. 'We have one ticket only available for a RHOS cast member … I know this will be disappointing news for many of you..' the email continued. Rather than conduct a ballot or a random draw to determine who the golden ticket would go to, the producers announced they'd drawn a line under the lobbying begun months earlier and made the decision about a Logies representative themselves. The ticket would go to the most anodyne of the group. The woman least likely to cause offence. The woman least likely to get ugly-drunk or hurl abuse should the trophy go to another in Best Structured Reality Program category, a category which sees RHOS in contention with Farmer Wants a Wife, Gogglebox Australia, Married At First Sight, Muster Dogs and Shark Tank. The woman least likely to jump Hamish Blake on the red carpet or try to souvenir a Logie or a kelpie pup. In short, it would go to the most unlikely and least intriguing Housewife of them all. It would go to.... Sally Obermeder. Victoria Montana spoke for her castmates when she took to social media this week to blast the decision to give two tickets to TV producers: 'I was under no misconceptions about the fact that production would prioritise themselves over the stars of the show. The ladies, who for almost no pay at all, open their lives to the public so that production can make money from our lives.' Hamish schmoozes the room following ratings crash Broadcaster and networker par excellence Hamish Macdonald looks confident of having a big bright future at the ABC despite shedding 16 per cent market share in the latest radio ratings survey. Macdonald's sustained ratings nosedive on ABC Sydney was confirmed last week six-months after he replaced Sarah Macdonald at the microphone in January. Given his losses were greater than any of his stablemates in the latest radio survey, there was a sense that Macdonald, renowned for moving on fast from media gigs, might prove a no-show at last weekend's Andrew Olle Media Lecture, held on Friday July 25, just three days after his latest ratings capitulation was exposed. However it was an exuberant Macdonald who turned out for the Olle Lecture at the W (Hotel) Sydney, the ABC-hosted event perhaps too tasty a networking opportunity for Macdonald, who recently lost his lucrative sideline gig on Ten's cancelled The Project, to miss. With a gig on ABC local radio and a second on the ABC's Radio National where he presents a program called Global Roaming on his CV, Macdonald has no lack of options at the ABC. It allows him to choose the company he keeps. And so it was with interest that our sources noted Macdonald's decision not to sit his colleagues from the struggling local radio division but instead with the stars and bosses of the national broadcaster's more prestigious counterpart, Radio National. He looked at home, this column hears, sitting with the presenter of this year's Olle lecture Geraldine Doogue, a friend, and the controversial ABC executive who recruited Macdonald to local radio, Ben Latimer, the ABC's head of audio content who played a role in Antoinette Lattouf's unfair dismissal case. Meanwhile Macdonald's ABC Sydney colleagues including breakfast host Craig Reucassel, drive presenter Chris Bath, retired drive host Richard Glover (Bath and Glover joined by spouses Jim Wilson and Debra Oswald), and a cast of execs and producers including the beloved Peter Wall sat at one of a series of tables earmarked for the local radio team. Also eager to be associated with the high profile oration was ABC chairman Kim Williams and ABC managing director Hugh 'I've been rumoured to be linked to many women' Marks, the former Nine CEO who has said he was unaware Nine had a culture problem when he was running that shop. On his arm at the Olle Lecture was the woman he romanced while playing culture captain at Nine, his former Nine subordinate Alexi Baker. Hegarty spied at Nine 60 Minutes' reporter Adam Hegarty appears to have been welcomed back into the fold following a long interstate sabbatical. Mystery surrounds the decision for Hegarty to up stumps and relocate from Sydney to Melbourne earlier this year though we're informed it followed his break-up with a girlfriend. Hegarty was involved with fellow Nine staffer Amber Johnston in 2024 and into the early months of 2025. According to sources Hegarty, one of only two male reporters still on the books at 60, then took extended leave from the show although few wanted to furnish us with details on what prompted it. Sources initially claimed he wouldn't be returning to the current affairs program yet a week ago he was spotted back in the Nine bunker. As previously reported by this columnist, not everyone was thrilled when Hegarty was recruited to 60 Minutes at the start of 2024 with some telling us Hegarty's appointment irked some colleagues. Pub icon departs Sydney publican Margaret Hargreaves was given a fond farewell at St Mary's Catholic Church in North Sydney on Tuesday following her death on July 15 at age 90. The longtime proprietor of hotels The Strawberry Hills and The Shakespeare, Hargreaves' pubs were a home away from home for tribes of journalists through the years as well as detectives from the police fraud squad and an array Sydney identities who she collected through the decades and who thought of her as a surrogate mother. Among those paying respects at her funeral was troubled former game show host Andrew O'Keefe, Foxtel chief Patrick Delany and Real Housewives of Sydney cast member Krissy Marsh. Pallbearers included one-time real estate heavyweight James Dack and car salesman John Altomonte. Hargreaves is survived by her husband John, and four children Elizabeth, Kelly, John-Paul and Angie.

Nikki Reed wears the same clothes every day
Nikki Reed wears the same clothes every day. The 37-year-old actress - who is best known for playing Rosalie Hale in the Twilight film franchise – lives on a farm north of Los Angeles with her husband Ian Somerhalder, two children and 17 animals, including chickens, cows, dogs, cats, and goats. And, she prefers to focus on sustainability these days rather than following the latest fashion trends. She told The Art of Being Well With Dr. Will Cole podcast: 'I wear the same clothes every day. I've got vintage pants on and they've got a bunch of holes. And if I were to turn around and show you my butt pockets, you would see that my mom helps me patch the back of them because I wear the same pants. 'I'm wearing my same shoes right now that I've worn for 15 years. I just got them resoled. I resole them every three years, because I wear the same shoes every day.' Although Nikki is happy to wear old clothes, she insisted she still wants to focus on quality. She explained: 'We live in a culture of more and more and more. And I don't want more. I want less, but I want good. 'I try to keep things for an entire lifetime. Before I purchase anything at all, I think about where it's made, how it's made, and how long I'm going to wear it.' Nikki – who calls sustainability her 'true passion' – doesn't miss her former life in Hollywood. She said: 'I don't even often hear the word 'Hollywood' or 'actress' anymore at all in my orbit. It's just been so, so long. I really am a nature gal, an animal gal. I would much rather be barefoot walking through soil than in high heels anywhere.' Nikki also believes life on the farm away from Hollywood was the best choice for her family. She previously told E! News: 'I can't personally envision a life without that connection to plants and soil. In this day and age, we're getting closer and closer to falling into full tech worlds. No matter how hard we try to shelter our kids from that, we're growing up in the age of tech, and I think the only way to really combat that is through nature. 'Getting back into the rhythm of the earth and getting our kids outdoors in a world where we're all living indoors, in front of screens and blue light everywhere, we need some red light. We need some sun, we need some fresh air.'

Larsa Pippen not interesting in renewing friendship with Kim Karadshian
Larsa Pippen is not interested in becoming friends with Kim Kardashian again. The former best friends fell out five years ago and although Larsa has previously suggested that Kim's ex-husband Kanye West played a role in their friendship split, Larsa insisted she has no plans to reconcile with Kim, 44. She told The Jason Lee Show: "I'm not the same person I was yesterday, and I feel like I'm good." However, Larsa, 51, revealed her daughter Sophia Pippen, 16 – who she shares with ex-husband Scottie Pippen – is still close to Kim and her family as Kim is her godmother. She said: 'I feel like Sophia has a good relationship with Kim. She still hangs out with the Kardashians. They're loving to her, so I feel like I don't want to tarnish that. It's fine." The public first learned of Larsa and Kim's rift when Kim and her siblings Kourtney and Khloe all stopped following Larsa on social media. Those close to Kim insisted there was no falling out but that the pair "naturally grew apart over a period of time'. A source told E! News: 'Kim is focused on matters at home. They are just in a different place in their lives and are not as close as they used to be. 'For Kim's own mental health she wanted to narrow down what was showing up on her feed. There are a lot of people she is still friends with who she doesn't follow on social media." Speaking about the drama on The Real Housewives of Miami, Larsa previously said: 'I love her and I love Kanye, and I just was the person that was stuck in the middle. I took a beating because I was the friend that was basically there and saw everything. And that basically was the demise of our relationship."
