I married a convict after waiting 4 YEARS for his release – he got another woman pregnant & that wasn't the worst part
A WOMAN has been left distraught after her husband got another woman pregnant just weeks after being released from prison. Emma Bradford, 33, waited four years for her man to come out of prison, but was devastated by his behaviour following his release. 3 3 3 The Brit, who appeared on US reality series Prison Brides, met her husband Curtis back in 2021, through a prisoner pen pal service. Emma became interested in Curtis' story, as he was serving seven years in prison for carjacking, which she thought was a lengthy sentence given that in the UK, the maximum jail term for this kind of crime is two years. However, romance soon blossomed between the pair, and they began to regularly chat on the phone. After eight months, Emma jetted off the US to finally meet her man, and set herself boundaries, such as to not send Curtis any money. As their relationship continued to grow, Emma became increasingly proud of Curt, and decided to share their relationship on the Prison Brides' TV show. "Curt could not read or write when he went to prison, and now he's got a Master's degree in business," she told the Tamron Hall show. "I'm not proud of his situation, but I'm extremely proud of the man he's become." Keen to make their relationship work, Emma moved across the Atlantic to be with Curt, and the couple even tied the knot behind bars. After four long years of waiting, Curt was finally released from prison, and Emma was ecstatic to start their life together. However, just weeks after being released, her husband cheated on her with another woman, whom he got pregnant. I'm a prison wife Emma was bowled over by the betrayal and was even more shocked when her husband got sent straight back to prison again after just six months. The dark-haired beauty, who got her beau's name tattooed on her hand said that she regrets a lot of her life decisions, and dated the person she thought she deserved. However, she has not let the traumatic experience get to her, and has now relocated back to the UK to start a new life. "I'm living life for me and it feels so good," she said in a recent TikTok video. UK Prison Brides Tracey Bottomley married double murderer Ernest Otto Smith in the US after meeting through a prison pen pal initiative. Tracey, from West Yorks, knew he had been given a life sentence with no possibility of parole Rebecca Short, from Oxfordshire, told her family she was on holiday in the US in 2022.

Naomi Wise, from Essex, married Victor Oquendo, nicknamed Animal, while he was serving a 24-year prison term in a US jail. They split up in 2022 but have now rekindled their romance "Never tolerating anything less than what I deserve again." Emma, (@_efbee) has documented her story on TikTok, gaining thousands of loyal fans. Under a recent post, one supporter commented: "Sometimes these men don't know they have a good woman until they lose us. "Too bad on them. I'm sorry he did that girl!"

‘Live with Kelly and Mark' will debut new Hudson Square set on April 14 — but will shoot from ‘cafeteria' until then
'Live' from the cafeteria! Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos' big move to ABC and Disney's swanky new Hudson Square headquarters is a bit delayed, it seems. The husband and wife co-hosts of the morning show will officially broadcast from their new set on April 14, but we're told they'll have to film near the buffet until then. 'They're basically going to be doing it from the cafeteria lobby… because they don't have a studio,' an insider told Page Six. Another insider described the location as a 'gorgeous open sprawling space near the cafeteria.' 'It's amazing!,' they insisted. 'They're just putting the final touches on the studio, but everyone is thrilled to be in this new Disney building,' they said. Disney has previously hosted movie premieres and events in the temporary space. A production source confirmed, 'We will be broadcasting our show live next week from the beautiful 10th floor in our new building while we put the final touches on our studio.' Ripa and Consuelos taped their final show from 7 Lincoln Square, the show's studio of 37 years, on Tuesday. Sources described the goodbye as 'bittersweet.' Ripa, who joined the show in 2001 as co-host to Regis Philbin, reminisced about their kids growing up in building, which is now somewhat decrepit. The show aired a re-run from November on Wednesday after the big move. We hear they'll return to live shows starting Monday. The hosting couple and their TV crew join ABC News and ABC/Disney shows like 'The View' and 'Tamron Hall.' 'Everyone is very excited,' the production source said. We hear that next week guests will including Elizabeth Moss, Jay Shetty, Bradley Whitford, Walton Goggins, Tracee Ellis Ross, Yvonne Strahovski, Matthew Rhys, Chrissy Metz, Bryce Dallas Howard and Hailee Steinfeld.

ABC News Chief Sets New Mission and Structure As Division Seeks to Move on From Tough Layoffs
ABC News president Almin Karamehmedovic sought to reassure staffers at the network news division that it was engaging in a thoughtful strategy to grow and expand the ABC News brand, despite the difficult layoffs that took place earlier this month. Karamehmedovic gathered ABC News employees at The Walt Disney Co.'s newly-opened New York City headquarters Tuesday in Hudson Square, taking questions and outlining his vision for the storied network news division. He also recapped the town hall in a note to staff, which The Hollywood Reporter obtained. More from The Hollywood Reporter ABC News Pivots Podcast Slate to Focus on True Crime, 20/20 Shows in the Works (Exclusive) Disney Cuts Nearly 200 Jobs at ABC News and Entertainment Networks ABC News Agrees to AI Protections for Writers in Latest Contract A source says he fielded multiple questions about the layoffs, which saw 538 shuttered, the Nightline and 20/20 teams consolidated, the Good Morning America team consolidated under producer Simone Swink, and a merging of digital and social operations. He also discussed the future of GMA3, the early afternoon spinoff of the morning program, and said that it was there to stay, despite the merging of teams. 'This is not easy. The entire industry has been challenged, and restructuring the way we operate has, unfortunately, had an impact on some of our colleagues,' he wrote to staff. 'We thank them again for their professionalism, dedication and meaningful contributions.' Karamehmedovic told employees that ABC News was restructuring around three 'pillars': '24/7 live and breaking news,' in an effort to ensure that ABC News is the default choice on linear, streaming, digital and social for anyone seeking information on news happening now; 'signature shows,' including GMA, World News Tonight, The View, Tamron Hall, and This Week; and 'longform storytelling,' built around 20/20, Nightline, and ABC News Studios. He also laid out three 'priorities' for the news division going forward, including a mission to 'preserve and expand our audience by reaching our viewers wherever they are,'; 'Streamline and strengthen our operations to collaborate better in service of the news.,'; and 'execute and deliver for our audience with excellence.' He framed the ABC News mission as being about 'straightforward journalism.' 'We were called to journalism because we believe in its value in society,' he wrote. 'The role of an independent press is essential, and we cannot take this for granted. For 70 years, ABC News has delivered exceptional reporting, interviews and analysis — this is why audiences turn to us. We must continue to prove our value to protect our future. We must earn their trust every single day by providing straightforward journalism.' Of course the ABC News cuts come as TV news writ large is facing a cash crunch, as cord-cutting impacts the bottom lines of cable news outlets (Fox News seeming to be the only exception for now), while network news divisions deal with a fracturing linear audience and a digital audience that isn't quite making up for those linear losses. The result, across companies, is more consolidation and merging of teams, smaller pay packages for top talent, and even a rethinking of programming strategy.
