When your an ideal weight at 100 pd it will show asap. She looks amazing get off your donkey, if you dont like the site dont look, She is a doing what most women dream of in there 30′s and she is 25. Great husband and supportive family and a better fan base stop being mean, it makes you ugly. And i am sorry if i sounded mean its not a good look its like slippers in the snow
Actually, you sound mean “Carrie”. “A.E.” wrote another comment before that was nice, so calm down. It’s a legit question. I thought the same thing. So YOU need to get off your “donkey” and stop harassing people.
Good life as in having a failing website, unkept promises, a husband that belittles for a living, a dad that is marrying someone younger than Shayne, dressing trashy, doing coke and living off of club appearances?
Genevieve, I find it interesting that you are always sticking up for Shayne because people being mean to her, which is fine. But the message is kind of lost when you throw around the word ‘bitch’ like its nothing. Just a tad hypocritical don’t you think?
Ideal weight for who exactly? I’m 5’8 if I weighed 100lbs I would look disgusting! 100lbs might be an ideal weight for Shaynes height but its not for me & lots of other girls.
Your comment is kind of weird in general. Just saying…
I use “bitches” as more of a slang term for “girls”. I call my friends my “bitches” too. If I directly call you a BITCH, then I’m using it as an insult.
I agree with A.E. I’m 5’9″ & weigh 120lb. I was 7 months before my stomach even had the little bump at the bottom. With Shayne being so skinny you’d think she’d stay small for a while. If she’s already this big I wonder what her husband will have to say as she progresses (& of course after baby). Probably not the best man to gain weight around- regardless of why she’s gaining it.
Also her “bump” isn’t really the shape of a pregnant woman’s belly. It’s like she’s swaying her back & sticking her stomach out as far as she can to LOOK pregnant. Hmm something’s fishy I think…
Congratulations Shayne & Nik, this is AMAZING news that will change everything about what’s important in your lives. Enjoy, I’m really happy for you both!
Congratulations! I have 3 of my own including twin 2-year-old girls, and they make everything in life have meaning! Can’t wait til they can go shopping with me and I can teach them all about the power of having amazing style! Good luck…your life will NEVER be the same!
CONGRATSSSSS a million times!!!! You look really healthy! and of course happy!!! Be sure to have your baby at Scottsdale Shea in AZ they are great!!! I can’t get over that Nik is going to be a dad. But I have no doubt that this baby will be more than happy! How many weeks are you?!?!? Share with your readers!!!
Omg!! I’ve been wondering why shayne hasn’t been on LR. But I wish you & Nik nothing but happiness & joy during & after your pregnancy–which I believe is the time when a woman is at her sexiest & fully embracing her womanhood!!! (: love you shayne.
Congratulations! You are such a beautiful mommy to be. Sending you lots of positive vibes and remember to get lots of rest now while you still can! (Nik too.)
Congratulations to You and Nik! I never once commented anything negative and critical of you while you was MIA, I knew it had to be something going on for you to not update.Glad your back Shayne! =) Some of your followers should apologize for being so hateful!
And Genevieve. Like I said before I respect your opinion and you seem like an intelligent girl. But you don’t always have to be the blog police for Shaynes blog. Sometimes its ok to just let people say what they want to say, negative or positive.
I don’t think Kelly was trying to mean. When I was pregnant I still did everything I normally do. I worked full time, had a social life, nothing changed other than the obvious no drinking and that sort of thing.
Just because you’re pregnant does not mean your life stops.
Just because YOU did everything the same when you were pregnant does not mean that she has to. Give me a break, its her first child!! Maybe she wants to enjoy the experience. I know what a surprise and LIFE change a child brings. My goodness people…
Congrats! You look fabulous! Girl if you think you are in love with your husband he will have NOTHING on how much you love your child. I have three kids and there is nothing in the world as awesome as seeing your baby for the first time and the instant love at first sight that comes with it. Stay healthy and have a wonderful pregnancy!
Congrats!!! I am so happy for you guys!! I hope you have a little girl!! I have a little girl and it is soo much fun!! Can’t wait to see your little fashionista <3
They are killing her on the TMZ comments. I don’t think she realizes how she’s perceived. She used to seem so classy- what the hell happened? Druggie coke look with horrible trashy clothes. Eek.
Congrats!! I hope you have a happy healthy pregnancie. fingers crossedd for a girl…every man needs to have a daddy’s little girl!!! Can’t wait to see how Nik really starts to look at the world once he holds his child for the first time. Get ready to experience a love you never knew exsisted until you hold your baby.
Congratulations may the new baby bring you much joy love and happiness, you look beautiful my daughter is 26 now and being pregnant and having her was the best time of my life.
shes going to have an eating disorder by age 2 hahahaha good one nik. it will probably be true. congrats guys. you will be a fab mom! children will change your life!!! and i hope for the better for you nik
I think you look beautiful Shayne! But I hate the lingerie bikini look. This is how all the girls look on the dirty so I find it weird that you wear this trash. If you like skimpy suits look up Vix or vitamin A.
But Congrats to you and Nik, Shayne! I can’t believe you’re showing that much at 2.5 months! I didn’t REALLY start showing until around 20 weeks. I was still wearing my normal clothes up until then too. But I’m 5’8 and the doctors told me I could “hide a baby.” LOL! You’re a tiny little thing, little bodies get big bellies!
I hope you have a healthy pregnancy and safe delivery!
Happy Pushing!! I did it natural, most amazing experience of my life!
Yeah, I don’t see how it’s possible for her to have a belly already. I think she’s just pushing it out. Especially since this is her first. Well, her first that has made it this far…
TL, I’m 5’8 also and both my daughters I didn’t show till 20 weeks. I really find it hard to believe to show that much no matter how skinny you are. I mean congrats and as I said earlier I’m super happy for them. But, I really think people shouldn’t announce their pregnancies until they are 12 weeks to be safe you never know! Plus its not like the papz are following her around looking for a bump on her! Anyways I think all of us girls can agree that we just wish you a happy safe pregnancy! No matter what we all say!
True. At this stage, your uterus is the only thing that is large. It’s pretty much impossible to be showing at 2.5 months- even with her weight and height. The baby is like the size of a grape.
SHAYNNEE! omg I’m so happy for you and Nik, your absolutley glowing your going to be the best mom and I’m sure Nik will be a fantastic dad !!! Congratsss
Aw your due date is 11 11 11? That’s epic!! Congrats shayne and nik! Shayne you look beautiful! Stay healthy and I hope this baby (whether it’s a boy or a girl) comes to this world healthy and beautiful like his or her mommy I have a 2 year old and it isn’t easy but I know you will have Nik’s support and you will be a great mom. I can’t wait to see your baby bump get bigger!!:) being a parent is the best gift you could ever get. Changes your entire view about life and makes you a stronger and more caring person. We love ya shayne! Congrats!!!
Congratulations! Just remember what you do, where you go, what you ingest, and what you breathe will have a full impact on the baby. I know Nik loves to party and be in the social limelight, but for you, the little one needs all the fresh air and controlled environment he/she can get. I wish you both the very best on this new and exciting venture of bring a little one into this world.
I thought this was some kind of joke at first, but you look amazing in the pics! Congrats to the both of you Can’t wait to see all your maternity fashion choices. Please fill us in, some of us will be on the same path very soon too.
Yea they’re mean but some of them are KIND OF true. I mean, the kid will be “sucking on silicone.” I mean if she breast feeds that is. Which I really hope she does! There is nothing better for the baby!!
what is wrong with TL! Babies can’t ingest Silicone unless her breast implants are leaking! If that was the case half the world of babies would be sucking on silicone. If that was a danger the MD’s would not allow new mothers to breast feed, plus the fact most breast implants are using saline which is not harmful for babies or the mother. Mothers use saline drops in babies noses to keep their airway clear.
Oh and it’s great for mama too! Nursing makes that baby weight just fall off you! I was back to my pre baby weight (I weighed even less actually) in no time thanks to nursing! And it releases endorphins (the feel good hormone). *Sigh* I miss nursing! LOL!
Heck yea, I was back to my original shape in just a month or two thanks to breastfeeding. It’s so much cheaper, too!
Ultimately it’s your choice though, Shayne.
Yep formula is crazy-expensive! And who the hell wants to make a bottle at 3am? Ugh! So glad I breast fed! No bottles to deal with, its always the perfect temperature and its natures prefect food for babies!
Ok seriously all this pregnancy and nursing tall is making me want another baby so bad! LOL! I miss that newborn smell, so yummy! There is nothing like having your newborn fall asleep on you after nursing! So relaxing! Just wait Shayne, you will see!
If I had to make a guess though I would say Shayne is the c-section formula feeding type. I’m not trying to be mean but that’s just the vibe I get. But I really hope you prove me wrong Shayne! It would be refreshing!!
But then again, there is nothing wrong with forumula feeding and c-sections, i had a c-section and was a formula feeder and my little girl is very happy, healthy and gorgeous.
My baby was born 8 weeks early due a placenta failure and weighed only 2lb 10oz, she was born by c-section and breast feeding didnt work out for me so she was formula fed and is now the cutest 2 yr old ive ever seen
If i had another baby ( which is definitely not on the agenda ) i would opt for the c-section, for sure, although i didnt get a choice with Aimee as she wouldnt have survived childbirth.
I agree there is nothing wrong with a c-section in an emergency situation. BUT I don’t understand women who choose it! Our bodies are built to have kids so why mess with nature? I think c-sections can be avoided 80-90% of the time though. But hospitals LOVE c-sections because they make more money off them. But really that’s a whole other debate (how messed up our medical industry is).
Same with breast feeding I totally don’t understand someone who would CHOOSE to formula feed. I totally understand that it doesn’t work out sometimes but why someone would choose it is beyond me. Again, its natural ALL mammals do it. Why mess with nature??
Also, so awesome that your daughter is healthy now! I was lucky to have a natural, healthy childbirth (the birth experience I wanted) & my son was born perfectly healthy! But I can only imagine how scary that must have been to have your baby so early!
But like I said so awesome that she is healthy now! Babies are resilient little creatures! I’m sure she’s adorable too.
Good luck to you and Nik! I’m currently getting my masters in nursing midwifery and have always been fascinated with the creation of life.
Everyone is going to have an opinion on what you should and shouldn’t be doing. All I can say is do your own research, listen to your own body and don’t be TOO hard on yourself. People like to throw things in your face that THEY did such as a natural birth, different cheeses, etc, ad nauseum. You will feel like you have to live in a plastic bubble by the time everyone is done giving their 2 cents
Not to say that there aren’t things that should be done or avoided but a stress free mama is much better than a mama trying to please everyone and their expectations for her. Stress in utero is being linked to decreased IQ and trouble paying attention in your child so there’s one more reason Nik should be rubbing your shoulders every night
The more I think about it I really like your photos with the bikini ONLY because you went with no makeup or hair.
You know what I think is really tacky? Moms who take their babies in nail salons. The chemicals stink and give me a headache so one can only imagine…
Congratulations Shayne & Nik!! I am TEAM GIRL as well. I think it would be cute to have a little mini style diva like her mother! Also having another woman in the house might put Nik in his place lol j/k. But seriously I am happy for you two
SIDE NOTE: Has anyone else noticed how much Shayne looks like Nik’s first wife?
Yup but I have no idea who she is. I just recall seeing a picture of her when I was reading about Nik’s DUI a year or two ago. The article said they were married for four years I think. Anyways she looked A LOT like Shayne from what I remember.
my sister just had a baby…shes 1 month and a week old! i lover her sooo much, the whole family is in love! the is the best blessing you will ever have! enjoy it…i hope you have a beautiful, healthy, happy family!!!!
so beautiful!
congratulations! you will be the most gorgeous & fun mommy! (never with frumpy shoes, like those minivan mommas) HA! only the most fashion forward, sexual shoes + babie and of course the babe will be rockin some essential Gucci booties asap. what can you say… i mean, there is “wants” and there is “needs” –>that is definitely a “need”
i love your style!
happy Good Friday, Lamas-Richie fam!

You obviously know nothing about social media. She is certainly getting $ for this. If she wasnt in it for $ she wouldnt be trying to sell clearance reject shit in her “vault”. The only thing she does post these days are “paparazzi” pictures and “articles” about her. Aside from that, I think the only meaningful fashion articles she has posted as of late were putting down someone more successful than her. Lets not forget in her “about” section for THIS site it touts that it’s, “updated daily!”. Just sayin…
Hun you really don’t know what you’re taking about. She doesn’t have any advertisers on the right hand column (so she isn’t getting paid per hit), she also doesn’t update/ or add to her vault(so no funds), and the paparazzi shots are sold outside of her blog… so NO funds from this blog. Now she COULD make money, but this is NOT her main priority.
TL- She is making money from wearing an item and selling the pictures to a large publication or entertainment site…not from the traffic that this blog generates.
Really? She wanted to let us know that she was starting a shoe line. She wanted to let us know that she and her husband signed up for a reality program. So yes, this was to generate buzz for projects that she could promote her and make money. Stop kissing up, we signed in to this loving her and expecting her to treat this site as more. SHE IS THE ONE who said how much this site meant to her and what we could expect from it. Elegant Fridays ? Wed? I’ve been pregnant and worked 40 hours a week, how hard is her job doing this? It’s an insult to all of us hard working wives and mothers for us to be so excited and supportive of her when we see she doesn’t even come through with what she said she would. Granted, I am still a fan of hers, but come on, at least acknowledge the fact that you have changed the site and are NOT doing the vault shopping, elegant Friday ect. Really doubt that this will even show on the post.
Sorry, no @ss kissing here. I just don’t get all bent out of shape if elegant Fridays or anything else isn’t posted like others.Who truly cares??? lol…its an entertainment blog. I guess I understand as a parent of a 2 1/2 yr old that there’s more important things. I don’t have enough hrs in my day to work, spend with my family,friends, run errands and in her case run a blog.
All I’m saying is… she owes no one an apology.
Congratulations! I always come and check out your site (fan since the bachelor and looking forward to your new show)! Seriously you deserve happiness and hope the baby is healthy/happy! definitely team girl…I mean come on, who doesn’t want a little princess to dress in Chanel and Louis?
Wow, just when i thought there were no more possible excuses to use for not keeping up with her site, shayne suprises us with this one. Thankfully, i stopped reading the site and just came back to see if she said anything about the pregnancy (and saw this 8 word “announcement”). Hm… 2.5 months pregnant and she looks like that, ok. Im sure it has nothing to do with sounding cool and trendy by having a due date of 11/11/11. Its crazy looking at shayne circa “the bachelor” days and looking at her now. Its sad seeing beautiful girls who you think have all the confidence in the world pay to have their looks changed and go from being classy to trashy in such a short period of time. Im going to blame the drugs, bc its the only thing that makes sense
I come on here from time to time, mainly out of boredome. I’ve written some choice words about Shayne, and Nik…but some of these people that hate on her because she doesn’t update…UM, you must even be more bored than me at times! lol It’s nothing to get hot an bothered about. Now, do I feel sorry for this child having Nik Richie as his/her father? Yes. Nik said himself that if it’s a girl, she’ll probably have an eating disorder by the age of 2. Wow. That’s nice. Does he say these things for shock value, or because he’s ignorant and disgusting? That is so sad. I remember seeing Shayne on Leave it to Lamas, and not knowing who she was, but thinking she was GORGEOUS. Now she looks hardly recognizable. Her face looks different, and the boobs really don’t suit her. I can only imagine that she looks the way she does now after meeting her trashbag husband. Hopefully she’ll come to her senses and divorce the guy and raise this baby on her own and get back to the classier girl she appeared to be before meeting him!
I find it hilarious that people seem to think pregnancy makes everything better.
In my honest opinion, I find this blog interesting because I’m a young woman and this type of petty BS passes the time. I can’t always relate, but it’s cool.
I’m not exactly ready to congratulate Nik & Shayne because Shayne’s only twenty-five and you’ve they’ve been married a year. Also only known each other, a year. I don’t understand why young women are so anxious to have babies out of the blue like this. It’s almost as if people forget babies are humans, they’re going to require a lot of attention. They’re not just a photo opportunity for TMZ.
I guess I can’t relate to all this because I’m young. I found thedirty & Shayne’s blog intriguing because of the party element that follows. I have a weird sense of skepticism about Nik & Shayne raising a child.
I just know what Scottsdale is about. The clubs, the drinking, the promoting, it’s how they make money. It’s just strange to think about how a pregnant Shayne & infant would come into play.
It’s times like this that guys run for the hills.
It’s plain to see this vicious cycle, when the young woman settles too young, has a kid she isn’t ready for. 18 yrs later they’re Real Housewife style; plastic surgeried, pathetic, prematurely aged with Empty Nest Syndrome because they’ve been robbed of their own young adulthood.
Studies show that the more educated a woman, the less likely she is to have children.
Just saying, I live around Scottsdale, I’m young, and I have a lot of stuff to do with my life before I bring a child into this superficial place. That’s why I can’t relate. Kids bring you down at this point in life & marriage.
yogaslut i have to say that i agree with a lot of things you bring up in your comment about them knowing each other for only a year and now having a baby so soon AND their lifestyle. But i do have to say that i was 19 when i had my son and although he was not planned he did NOT bring me down in my life and i was younger than Shayne. He changed my life in so many amazing ways which is what i hope happens to shayne and nik.
I understand that your child is a blessing in your life. I am absolutely happy for you and other young mothers content with their lives. Congratulations.
I guess what bothers me is their lifestyle more than anything. I’m assuming you weren’t under the circumstances Shayne & Nik are currently. Nik is publicly hated by many & scrutinized by Dr. Phil. Shayne runs a blog where most of the comments are negative. Thedirty.com is among many of the gossip blogs that generate online bullying, a fucking epidemic. They drink, a lot. Nik boasts on Twitpic about his favorite “No Hangover” shot he has to take all the time. They’re never home. They’re always in Miami or Las Vegas, having the time of their live. That’s hella dope and all, just seems as though a baby would harsh the mellow.
Then comes the spoiled-girl vanity that is pretty apparent in Shayne. The hair bleaching, the botox/fillers, lip injections, tanning, wearing heels everywhere.
I dunno if I’d be ready to give all that up, if I were her.
It’s almost like Snooki having a kid. Then again, we love Trainwreck.
Yogaslut, Wow, you said it so well! I can see what you’re saying about kids bringing you down. I think you were talking about them bringing Nik and Shayne down at this point in their life, which is true. Their life is all about partying and jet setting. How a kid is going to fit into that I don’t know. I have a 19-month-son and for that whole first year you are literally (and figuratively) attached to them! So like I said I don’t see how a baby is going to fit into that lifestyle. Those first few months are a total blur of diapers, breast feeding, poop, spit up, being up all night (not to mention you’re still trying to get back to normal after pushing a baby out of your body!)…. Yea, it’s not easy!
Babies don’t just require SOME of your attention, they require it ALL!!
I obviously don’t have the same lifestyle as Shanye so for me it didn’t change too much. BUT you can’t just run to the grocery store to grab a couple things real quick anymore or just go grab coffee or go out with your husband. All those things require a little more planning after a kid. There is no such thing as spur-of-the-moment anymore. I’ve seen Nik say “I don’t plan things it’s boring” well guess what Nik? You’re going to have to plan everything now!
Also I have read about the less education a woman has, the more likely they are to have a kid. I only have a high school education. I consider myself smart and articulate but I would say I’m more common sense, street smart and less book smart. Both my sisters however have a higher education and my younger sister is not married and doesn’t plan on getting married anytime soon so who knows if/when she’ll have kids? My older sister has a kid but didn’t have him until she was 37. So yea I think those studies are true.
I am a stay-at-home-mom and kids are a FULL TIME 24/7 job! And a serious life decision and SHOULD NOT be considered anything less!
I sure hope Nik and Shayne have a strong marriage because every little problem you had before a kid gets multiplied by 100 after a kid!
I just turned 25 and everyone around me is having or have already had babies! whether they are my slightly older friends or the friends I have that are my age. They all think I’m weird and strange for not having had children yet or planning to very soon. i’m constantly getting remarks and comments from them about it and how happy it would make us and make our relationship so much better! now here’s the breaker, i have a wonderful amazing realtionship with my fiance. Ive been engaged for about 4 yrs and been in my realtionship for 7 years. we live the young get up and go lifestyle. we arent ready for children, I get the remarks “you’ll never be ready just do it now while ur young and this way you wont be too old.. bla bla!” I think to myself and talk to my guy about all this and he kind of thinks its funny how so many women love to create this clan of mommies and have babies together etc. in a way I feel like children would literally slam the brakes on our life and bring us down. I want them.. I do, BUT i’m going to school and I also work full time.. my weekends are little vacations and etc.
After reading these comments above, I finally feel “OK” about not wanting to bring children into this world and our lives just yet. i’m soooo happy that i finally have clarity! i was starting to think maybe something is wrong with me and i’m selfish for choosing “my life” versus having kids!!
Very well said. I wouldn’t necessarily say a kid brings you down, but from the moment you conceive a child, your life & decisions are all based on them. Your main priority should only be your kid(s) & obviously your husband comes first in certain situations, but that is a different subject.
My first year anniversary of marriage will be coming now in June. My husband really wants to plant the seed soon, but after babysitting our 3 month nephew (overnight, all weekend!!!!) it was no easy task. By Monday we were so pooped. After a couple trials of babysitting, we both decided we should wait a little longer. There is nothing like spontaneously going on date night or taking a trip on a whim. Plus I still enjoy sleeping, thank you very much! lol.
I do think that Shayne and Nik are moving really quickly, especially where they are both at in their careers. At the same time, nobody really knows if this was planned. What if she got pregnant by mistake? Atleast they are embracing it & are excited
I feel like you’re doing a lot of generalization. Your whole point is based on judging people you don’t know by pictures and stuff written on the internet, then coming to your conclusion on them based on just that. I don’t think that’s enough to base on – who knows how much we’re not getting from TMZ, Lamasrichie and The Dirty? I think it’s unfair to draw all your conclusions without any real knowledge. And, you really don’t need to have the typical cookie cutter lifestyle to be a good parent. Just because they’re jetsetters, blonde hair, etc…that makes it so they can’t be good parents? I applaud out of the box type of people that pave the path for the non-normal, weird, non sensical and bizzare. I think they have a great chance, especially if they’re genuine
Um, YogaSLUT…I kind of agreed with some of what you wrote. Then I came across “Studies show that the more educated a woman, the less likely she is to have children.”
Are you…retarded? You’re basically writing that smart women are far less likely to have children? What studies are you reading, and are they credible sources? I was with my boyfriend for only 5 months, I was only 22, when I became pregnant with my daughter. We were being careful, but it’s something that happened, and now she…(and my son now as well,) are the BIGGEST and most amazing blessings I could ever ask for. I take it you don’t have children? I didn’t even WANT kids when I was out of highshcool, and now I don’t know what I’d do without mine.
From what I gather from what I’ve READ about Shayne, she seems like somewhat of a sweet girl, and I hope she takes amazing care of her baby. I don’t believe in using abortion as a means of birth control so she has to move forward with the situation she’s got going on. I’m sad that this child will have Nik Richie for a father, but hopefully he’ll man up and be a pillar of strength in this childs life.
um Lala, she did not say that smart women are less likely to have children. Nor did she imply that smart women are less likely to have children because they are more careful as opposed to “stupid” women who are not careful. When you define someone as highly educated, they presumably have a BA or Masters, etc. Meaning some educated women are more career oriented and probably do not have time for personal relationships and/or children. This could be the case for some women, not all so please do not quote me on that. In other words, she is not stating that only stupid women have kids.
I said educated, not smart. Talking about school, here. If you’re in school you’re less likely to have a baby. Nobody said anything about abortion, and since you called me retarded, I am going to call you a dipshit.
Shane you look darling with your cute little poochy belly. Enjoy every minute of it and don’t worry about what anyone else thinks. Be happy, be healthy and be peaceful! Happy pregnancy!
CONGRADULATIONS <3
It seems like it’s a little early to be having a baby bump if you’re only 2.5 months pregnant. I thought usually women don’t show until 4-5 months?
When your an ideal weight at 100 pd it will show asap. She looks amazing get off your donkey, if you dont like the site dont look, She is a doing what most women dream of in there 30′s and she is 25. Great husband and supportive family and a better fan base stop being mean, it makes you ugly. And i am sorry if i sounded mean its not a good look its like slippers in the snow
damn i think she was just asking a question. you are the one sounding mean.
Actually, you sound mean “Carrie”. “A.E.” wrote another comment before that was nice, so calm down. It’s a legit question. I thought the same thing. So YOU need to get off your “donkey” and stop harassing people.
Not true idiot
Carrie- Get off your donkey? Lmao. Get out of here idiot and grow up. Stop defending someone like you know them. Lol.
I agree with Carrie – Shayne is living the GOOD life and bitches just be jealous
Good life as in having a failing website, unkept promises, a husband that belittles for a living, a dad that is marrying someone younger than Shayne, dressing trashy, doing coke and living off of club appearances?
Yeah, the good life…
Genevieve, I find it interesting that you are always sticking up for Shayne because people being mean to her, which is fine. But the message is kind of lost when you throw around the word ‘bitch’ like its nothing. Just a tad hypocritical don’t you think?
Ideal weight for who exactly? I’m 5’8 if I weighed 100lbs I would look disgusting! 100lbs might be an ideal weight for Shaynes height but its not for me & lots of other girls.
Your comment is kind of weird in general. Just saying…
That was to Carrie. I don’t know what happened.
I use “bitches” as more of a slang term for “girls”. I call my friends my “bitches” too. If I directly call you a BITCH, then I’m using it as an insult.
All women’s bodies are different.. Maybe she just started to show early? She is a thin lady.
I agree with A.E. I’m 5’9″ & weigh 120lb. I was 7 months before my stomach even had the little bump at the bottom. With Shayne being so skinny you’d think she’d stay small for a while. If she’s already this big I wonder what her husband will have to say as she progresses (& of course after baby). Probably not the best man to gain weight around- regardless of why she’s gaining it.
Also her “bump” isn’t really the shape of a pregnant woman’s belly. It’s like she’s swaying her back & sticking her stomach out as far as she can to LOOK pregnant. Hmm something’s fishy I think…
Congratulations Shayne & Nik, this is AMAZING news that will change everything about what’s important in your lives. Enjoy, I’m really happy for you both!
Congratulations! I have 3 of my own including twin 2-year-old girls, and they make everything in life have meaning! Can’t wait til they can go shopping with me and I can teach them all about the power of having amazing style! Good luck…your life will NEVER be the same!
CONGRATSSSSS a million times!!!! You look really healthy! and of course happy!!! Be sure to have your baby at Scottsdale Shea in AZ they are great!!! I can’t get over that Nik is going to be a dad. But I have no doubt that this baby will be more than happy! How many weeks are you?!?!? Share with your readers!!!
Omg!! I’ve been wondering why shayne hasn’t been on LR. But I wish you & Nik nothing but happiness & joy during & after your pregnancy–which I believe is the time when a woman is at her sexiest & fully embracing her womanhood!!! (: love you shayne.
#teamgirl !!!
simplysooo_
Congratulations! You are such a beautiful mommy to be. Sending you lots of positive vibes and remember to get lots of rest now while you still can! (Nik too.)

Idk what to say about this it’s a bit random, But if it’s true Congrats!
congrats beautiful! what an exciting way to celebrate
Shayne,
Congrats to you and Nik on the baby bump. Best wishes to you both. Welcome to motherhood:)
Wow. Pimping out your baby before it’s even born. NICE.
By letting us know she’s pregnant? I beg to differ.
It actually is pimping the baby out when you release these photos to any organization that will print them…
But…this is her own blog…so….yea……
I was obviously talking about pimping the pictures out to TMZ and other various outlets… so… yeah. And, it is spelled “y-e-a-h”…
OMGGGGGGGGGG CONGRATULATIONS! You are glowing!
Congrats Shayne and Nik! You look amazing! <3
wow!!!! Congratulations!!!
Congratulations from switzerland
my little baby has 1 year now you’ll see it’s great to be a mom …big kisses from Geneva shayne
yeaaaaah! congrats!
way to ‘lock him down’ baby mama
team girl!!! right nik? i hope she NEVER
Congratulations, i had a sneaky feeling that this was the project you were working on !
And im assuming its a little girl ? I have a 2 yr old daughter and she’s amazing
How far along are you ? ( if you dont mind sharing that info ) xx
Congratulations to You and Nik! I never once commented anything negative and critical of you while you was MIA, I knew it had to be something going on for you to not update.Glad your back Shayne! =) Some of your followers should apologize for being so hateful!
Why? Because she’s pregnant? Many people in the world are pregnant and can still keep up with their obligations…
Shut up and get off her site
Thank you MissC.
Why “thank you”? Like you’re not on here bashing her already… Nice try though
And Genevieve. Like I said before I respect your opinion and you seem like an intelligent girl. But you don’t always have to be the blog police for Shaynes blog. Sometimes its ok to just let people say what they want to say, negative or positive.
I don’t think Kelly was trying to mean. When I was pregnant I still did everything I normally do. I worked full time, had a social life, nothing changed other than the obvious no drinking and that sort of thing.
Just because you’re pregnant does not mean your life stops.
Exactly. Well said. Being pregnant doesn’t give you an excuse to get out of everything.
Just because YOU did everything the same when you were pregnant does not mean that she has to. Give me a break, its her first child!! Maybe she wants to enjoy the experience. I know what a surprise and LIFE change a child brings. My goodness people…
Congrats! You look fabulous! Girl if you think you are in love with your husband he will have NOTHING on how much you love your child. I have three kids and there is nothing in the world as awesome as seeing your baby for the first time and the instant love at first sight that comes with it. Stay healthy and have a wonderful pregnancy!
Congrats!!! I am so happy for you guys!! I hope you have a little girl!! I have a little girl and it is soo much fun!! Can’t wait to see your little fashionista <3
CONGRATS! Wishing you both all the best
<33

Congratulations!
omg, tmz are having a field day with these pictures
Just noticed that she’s due 11-11-11 so she’s only about 2.5 months pregnant, congratulations again ! xx
How exciting! Congratulations to both you and your husband.
Congrats!!!! This definitly explains why you haven’t been blogging lately!
Shayne you are absolutely radiant.. TEAM GIRL!
Congrats!
They are killing her on the TMZ comments. I don’t think she realizes how she’s perceived. She used to seem so classy- what the hell happened? Druggie coke look with horrible trashy clothes. Eek.
Have you read anything about what Nik thinks? I haven’t been able to find anything. Is he excited? I would figure he’d have a lot to say.
Nevermind I found this. There is a cute pic of Nik kissing her tummy.

OMYGOSH!!! CONGRATS SHAYNE!!! I’m sure that your child will be a true fashionistas as well
Congrats!
Wow congratulations to both of you! You’ll be wonderful parents! Best of luck!
I think you look beautiful Shayne! But I hate the lingerie bikini look. This is how all the girls look on the dirty so I find it weird that you wear this trash. If you like skimpy suits look up Vix or vitamin A.
I agree, that bikini is UGLY! Super trashy!
But Congrats to you and Nik, Shayne! I can’t believe you’re showing that much at 2.5 months! I didn’t REALLY start showing until around 20 weeks. I was still wearing my normal clothes up until then too. But I’m 5’8 and the doctors told me I could “hide a baby.” LOL! You’re a tiny little thing, little bodies get big bellies!
I hope you have a healthy pregnancy and safe delivery!
Happy Pushing!!
I did it natural, most amazing experience of my life!
Yeah, I don’t see how it’s possible for her to have a belly already. I think she’s just pushing it out. Especially since this is her first. Well, her first that has made it this far…
Tamra is that you??? ^^^^^
Who’s “Tamra”?
um.. yes.. lol
how did you know she was only 2.5 months?? i was looking for that info!
thanks!
It’s all over the z-list pages….
TL, I’m 5’8 also and both my daughters I didn’t show till 20 weeks. I really find it hard to believe to show that much no matter how skinny you are. I mean congrats and as I said earlier I’m super happy for them. But, I really think people shouldn’t announce their pregnancies until they are 12 weeks to be safe you never know! Plus its not like the papz are following her around looking for a bump on her! Anyways I think all of us girls can agree that we just wish you a happy safe pregnancy! No matter what we all say!
True. At this stage, your uterus is the only thing that is large. It’s pretty much impossible to be showing at 2.5 months- even with her weight and height. The baby is like the size of a grape.
Ahhhhh <3 Congratulations!!!
#TeamGirl!!!!!
SHAYNNEE! omg I’m so happy for you and Nik, your absolutley glowing your going to be the best mom and I’m sure Nik will be a fantastic dad !!! Congratsss
Aw your due date is 11 11 11? That’s epic!! Congrats shayne and nik! Shayne you look beautiful! Stay healthy and I hope this baby (whether it’s a boy or a girl) comes to this world healthy and beautiful like his or her mommy
I have a 2 year old and it isn’t easy but I know you will have Nik’s support and you will be a great mom. I can’t wait to see your baby bump get bigger!!:) being a parent is the best gift you could ever get. Changes your entire view about life and makes you a stronger and more caring person. We love ya shayne! Congrats!!!
Congratulations! Just remember what you do, where you go, what you ingest, and what you breathe will have a full impact on the baby. I know Nik loves to party and be in the social limelight, but for you, the little one needs all the fresh air and controlled environment he/she can get. I wish you both the very best on this new and exciting venture of bring a little one into this world.
God bless my dear you make the world believe in love and happness TEAM GIRL!!!!!
I mean Happiness
The congrats are in order.
I hope you have time to continue to let us relish in your blog and life! Can’t wait to see more baby bump pics!
Plenty of food-based vitamins, fish oil and organic foods. Yay!
yea eat organic and vegetarian!!!
CONGRATULATIONS you look amazing and so happy!
I thought this was some kind of joke at first, but you look amazing in the pics! Congrats to the both of you
Can’t wait to see all your maternity fashion choices. Please fill us in, some of us will be on the same path very soon too.
Hey ladies Shayne really is getting shredded on TMZ and not very creatively at all. Join me in leaving some positive comments about her there!!
Congradulations! Much blessings to you, the baby and Nik.
Yea they’re mean but some of them are KIND OF true. I mean, the kid will be “sucking on silicone.” I mean if she breast feeds that is. Which I really hope she does! There is nothing better for the baby!!
what is wrong with TL! Babies can’t ingest Silicone unless her breast implants are leaking! If that was the case half the world of babies would be sucking on silicone. If that was a danger the MD’s would not allow new mothers to breast feed, plus the fact most breast implants are using saline which is not harmful for babies or the mother. Mothers use saline drops in babies noses to keep their airway clear.
Oh and it’s great for mama too! Nursing makes that baby weight just fall off you! I was back to my pre baby weight (I weighed even less actually) in no time thanks to nursing! And it releases endorphins (the feel good hormone). *Sigh* I miss nursing! LOL!
Heck yea, I was back to my original shape in just a month or two thanks to breastfeeding. It’s so much cheaper, too!
Ultimately it’s your choice though, Shayne.
Yep formula is crazy-expensive! And who the hell wants to make a bottle at 3am? Ugh! So glad I breast fed! No bottles to deal with, its always the perfect temperature and its natures prefect food for babies!
Ok seriously all this pregnancy and nursing tall is making me want another baby so bad! LOL! I miss that newborn smell, so yummy! There is nothing like having your newborn fall asleep on you after nursing! So relaxing! Just wait Shayne, you will see!
If I had to make a guess though I would say Shayne is the c-section formula feeding type. I’m not trying to be mean but that’s just the vibe I get. But I really hope you prove me wrong Shayne! It would be refreshing!!
But then again, there is nothing wrong with forumula feeding and c-sections, i had a c-section and was a formula feeder and my little girl is very happy, healthy and gorgeous.
My baby was born 8 weeks early due a placenta failure and weighed only 2lb 10oz, she was born by c-section and breast feeding didnt work out for me so she was formula fed and is now the cutest 2 yr old ive ever seen
If i had another baby ( which is definitely not on the agenda ) i would opt for the c-section, for sure, although i didnt get a choice with Aimee as she wouldnt have survived childbirth.
xx
I agree there is nothing wrong with a c-section in an emergency situation. BUT I don’t understand women who choose it! Our bodies are built to have kids so why mess with nature? I think c-sections can be avoided 80-90% of the time though. But hospitals LOVE c-sections because they make more money off them. But really that’s a whole other debate (how messed up our medical industry is).
Same with breast feeding I totally don’t understand someone who would CHOOSE to formula feed. I totally understand that it doesn’t work out sometimes but why someone would choose it is beyond me. Again, its natural ALL mammals do it. Why mess with nature??
Also, so awesome that your daughter is healthy now! I was lucky to have a natural, healthy childbirth (the birth experience I wanted) & my son was born perfectly healthy! But I can only imagine how scary that must have been to have your baby so early!
But like I said so awesome that she is healthy now! Babies are resilient little creatures!
I’m sure she’s adorable too. 
PLEASE PLEASE STOP SMOKING FOR THE BABY!!!!! so are you going to be showing in your wedding dress? what are your plans for the wedding now?!
I totally agree about the smoking thing, there is nothing more disgusting than seeing a pregnant lady smoke or drink, imo xx
CONGRATS! you look amazing!
Good luck to you and Nik! I’m currently getting my masters in nursing midwifery and have always been fascinated with the creation of life.
Everyone is going to have an opinion on what you should and shouldn’t be doing. All I can say is do your own research, listen to your own body and don’t be TOO hard on yourself. People like to throw things in your face that THEY did such as a natural birth, different cheeses, etc, ad nauseum. You will feel like you have to live in a plastic bubble by the time everyone is done giving their 2 cents
Not to say that there aren’t things that should be done or avoided but a stress free mama is much better than a mama trying to please everyone and their expectations for her. Stress in utero is being linked to decreased IQ and trouble paying attention in your child so there’s one more reason Nik should be rubbing your shoulders every night
Oh, and get a nurse midwife! You won’t regret it.
The more I think about it I really like your photos with the bikini ONLY because you went with no makeup or hair.
You know what I think is really tacky? Moms who take their babies in nail salons. The chemicals stink and give me a headache so one can only imagine…
Congratulations Shayne & Nik!! I am TEAM GIRL as well. I think it would be cute to have a little mini style diva like her mother! Also having another woman in the house might put Nik in his place lol j/k. But seriously I am happy for you two
SIDE NOTE: Has anyone else noticed how much Shayne looks like Nik’s first wife?
Nik was married previously??
http://thefashionobsessed.wordpress.com/
Yup but I have no idea who she is. I just recall seeing a picture of her when I was reading about Nik’s DUI a year or two ago. The article said they were married for four years I think. Anyways she looked A LOT like Shayne from what I remember.
I juwt looked it up and she looks NOTNING like her in my opnion…
my sister just had a baby…shes 1 month and a week old! i lover her sooo much, the whole family is in love! the is the best blessing you will ever have! enjoy it…i hope you have a beautiful, healthy, happy family!!!!
so beautiful!
and of course the babe will be rockin some essential Gucci booties asap. what can you say… i mean, there is “wants” and there is “needs” –>that is definitely a “need”
congratulations! you will be the most gorgeous & fun mommy! (never with frumpy shoes, like those minivan mommas) HA! only the most fashion forward, sexual shoes + babie
i love your style!
happy Good Friday, Lamas-Richie fam!

Thanks Tl, thats much appreciated
xx
If she cant post during pregnancy, I dont even want to think about when the baby is here.
I don’t understand why some of you don’t get the fact that she started this blog for FUN. This isn’t a job, or a money maker, it’s a fansite blog.
So SURPRISE….this site will take a back seat to any type of work or family situation…and she doesn’t need to give ANY explanation.
Again, congrats shayne, and I wish you all the best in the next stage in your life.
You obviously know nothing about social media. She is certainly getting $ for this. If she wasnt in it for $ she wouldnt be trying to sell clearance reject shit in her “vault”. The only thing she does post these days are “paparazzi” pictures and “articles” about her. Aside from that, I think the only meaningful fashion articles she has posted as of late were putting down someone more successful than her. Lets not forget in her “about” section for THIS site it touts that it’s, “updated daily!”. Just sayin…
She’s also getting money for that trashy looking bathing suit.
Hun you really don’t know what you’re taking about. She doesn’t have any advertisers on the right hand column (so she isn’t getting paid per hit), she also doesn’t update/ or add to her vault(so no funds), and the paparazzi shots are sold outside of her blog… so NO funds from this blog. Now she COULD make money, but this is NOT her main priority.
TL- She is making money from wearing an item and selling the pictures to a large publication or entertainment site…not from the traffic that this blog generates.
Really? She wanted to let us know that she was starting a shoe line. She wanted to let us know that she and her husband signed up for a reality program. So yes, this was to generate buzz for projects that she could promote her and make money. Stop kissing up, we signed in to this loving her and expecting her to treat this site as more. SHE IS THE ONE who said how much this site meant to her and what we could expect from it. Elegant Fridays ? Wed? I’ve been pregnant and worked 40 hours a week, how hard is her job doing this? It’s an insult to all of us hard working wives and mothers for us to be so excited and supportive of her when we see she doesn’t even come through with what she said she would. Granted, I am still a fan of hers, but come on, at least acknowledge the fact that you have changed the site and are NOT doing the vault shopping, elegant Friday ect. Really doubt that this will even show on the post.
Well said!
Sorry, no @ss kissing here. I just don’t get all bent out of shape if elegant Fridays or anything else isn’t posted like others.Who truly cares??? lol…its an entertainment blog. I guess I understand as a parent of a 2 1/2 yr old that there’s more important things. I don’t have enough hrs in my day to work, spend with my family,friends, run errands and in her case run a blog.
All I’m saying is… she owes no one an apology.
Congratulations! I always come and check out your site (fan since the bachelor and looking forward to your new show)! Seriously you deserve happiness and hope the baby is healthy/happy! definitely team girl…I mean come on, who doesn’t want a little princess to dress in Chanel and Louis?
Wow, just when i thought there were no more possible excuses to use for not keeping up with her site, shayne suprises us with this one. Thankfully, i stopped reading the site and just came back to see if she said anything about the pregnancy (and saw this 8 word “announcement”). Hm… 2.5 months pregnant and she looks like that, ok. Im sure it has nothing to do with sounding cool and trendy by having a due date of 11/11/11. Its crazy looking at shayne circa “the bachelor” days and looking at her now. Its sad seeing beautiful girls who you think have all the confidence in the world pay to have their looks changed and go from being classy to trashy in such a short period of time. Im going to blame the drugs, bc its the only thing that makes sense
I come on here from time to time, mainly out of boredome. I’ve written some choice words about Shayne, and Nik…but some of these people that hate on her because she doesn’t update…UM, you must even be more bored than me at times! lol It’s nothing to get hot an bothered about. Now, do I feel sorry for this child having Nik Richie as his/her father? Yes. Nik said himself that if it’s a girl, she’ll probably have an eating disorder by the age of 2. Wow. That’s nice. Does he say these things for shock value, or because he’s ignorant and disgusting? That is so sad. I remember seeing Shayne on Leave it to Lamas, and not knowing who she was, but thinking she was GORGEOUS. Now she looks hardly recognizable. Her face looks different, and the boobs really don’t suit her. I can only imagine that she looks the way she does now after meeting her trashbag husband. Hopefully she’ll come to her senses and divorce the guy and raise this baby on her own and get back to the classier girl she appeared to be before meeting him!
I find it hilarious that people seem to think pregnancy makes everything better.
In my honest opinion, I find this blog interesting because I’m a young woman and this type of petty BS passes the time. I can’t always relate, but it’s cool.
I’m not exactly ready to congratulate Nik & Shayne because Shayne’s only twenty-five and you’ve they’ve been married a year. Also only known each other, a year. I don’t understand why young women are so anxious to have babies out of the blue like this. It’s almost as if people forget babies are humans, they’re going to require a lot of attention. They’re not just a photo opportunity for TMZ.
I guess I can’t relate to all this because I’m young. I found thedirty & Shayne’s blog intriguing because of the party element that follows. I have a weird sense of skepticism about Nik & Shayne raising a child.
I just know what Scottsdale is about. The clubs, the drinking, the promoting, it’s how they make money. It’s just strange to think about how a pregnant Shayne & infant would come into play.
It’s times like this that guys run for the hills.
It’s plain to see this vicious cycle, when the young woman settles too young, has a kid she isn’t ready for. 18 yrs later they’re Real Housewife style; plastic surgeried, pathetic, prematurely aged with Empty Nest Syndrome because they’ve been robbed of their own young adulthood.
Studies show that the more educated a woman, the less likely she is to have children.
Just saying, I live around Scottsdale, I’m young, and I have a lot of stuff to do with my life before I bring a child into this superficial place. That’s why I can’t relate. Kids bring you down at this point in life & marriage.
yogaslut i have to say that i agree with a lot of things you bring up in your comment about them knowing each other for only a year and now having a baby so soon AND their lifestyle. But i do have to say that i was 19 when i had my son and although he was not planned he did NOT bring me down in my life and i was younger than Shayne. He changed my life in so many amazing ways which is what i hope happens to shayne and nik.
I understand that your child is a blessing in your life. I am absolutely happy for you and other young mothers content with their lives. Congratulations.
I guess what bothers me is their lifestyle more than anything. I’m assuming you weren’t under the circumstances Shayne & Nik are currently. Nik is publicly hated by many & scrutinized by Dr. Phil. Shayne runs a blog where most of the comments are negative. Thedirty.com is among many of the gossip blogs that generate online bullying, a fucking epidemic. They drink, a lot. Nik boasts on Twitpic about his favorite “No Hangover” shot he has to take all the time. They’re never home. They’re always in Miami or Las Vegas, having the time of their live. That’s hella dope and all, just seems as though a baby would harsh the mellow.
Then comes the spoiled-girl vanity that is pretty apparent in Shayne. The hair bleaching, the botox/fillers, lip injections, tanning, wearing heels everywhere.
I dunno if I’d be ready to give all that up, if I were her.
It’s almost like Snooki having a kid. Then again, we love Trainwreck.
Yogaslut, Wow, you said it so well! I can see what you’re saying about kids bringing you down. I think you were talking about them bringing Nik and Shayne down at this point in their life, which is true. Their life is all about partying and jet setting. How a kid is going to fit into that I don’t know. I have a 19-month-son and for that whole first year you are literally (and figuratively) attached to them! So like I said I don’t see how a baby is going to fit into that lifestyle. Those first few months are a total blur of diapers, breast feeding, poop, spit up, being up all night (not to mention you’re still trying to get back to normal after pushing a baby out of your body!)…. Yea, it’s not easy!
Babies don’t just require SOME of your attention, they require it ALL!!
I obviously don’t have the same lifestyle as Shanye so for me it didn’t change too much. BUT you can’t just run to the grocery store to grab a couple things real quick anymore or just go grab coffee or go out with your husband. All those things require a little more planning after a kid. There is no such thing as spur-of-the-moment anymore. I’ve seen Nik say “I don’t plan things it’s boring” well guess what Nik? You’re going to have to plan everything now!
Also I have read about the less education a woman has, the more likely they are to have a kid. I only have a high school education. I consider myself smart and articulate but I would say I’m more common sense, street smart and less book smart. Both my sisters however have a higher education and my younger sister is not married and doesn’t plan on getting married anytime soon so who knows if/when she’ll have kids? My older sister has a kid but didn’t have him until she was 37. So yea I think those studies are true.
I am a stay-at-home-mom and kids are a FULL TIME 24/7 job! And a serious life decision and SHOULD NOT be considered anything less!
I sure hope Nik and Shayne have a strong marriage because every little problem you had before a kid gets multiplied by 100 after a kid!
God how i miss the days of just going somewhere on a whim
Its a military operation whenever i go out ! xx
I just turned 25 and everyone around me is having or have already had babies! whether they are my slightly older friends or the friends I have that are my age. They all think I’m weird and strange for not having had children yet or planning to very soon. i’m constantly getting remarks and comments from them about it and how happy it would make us and make our relationship so much better! now here’s the breaker, i have a wonderful amazing realtionship with my fiance. Ive been engaged for about 4 yrs and been in my realtionship for 7 years. we live the young get up and go lifestyle. we arent ready for children, I get the remarks “you’ll never be ready just do it now while ur young and this way you wont be too old.. bla bla!” I think to myself and talk to my guy about all this and he kind of thinks its funny how so many women love to create this clan of mommies and have babies together etc. in a way I feel like children would literally slam the brakes on our life and bring us down. I want them.. I do, BUT i’m going to school and I also work full time.. my weekends are little vacations and etc.
After reading these comments above, I finally feel “OK” about not wanting to bring children into this world and our lives just yet. i’m soooo happy that i finally have clarity! i was starting to think maybe something is wrong with me and i’m selfish for choosing “my life” versus having kids!!
Thanks guys
xo
Ugh god after reading that (especially that last sentence) I’m sufficiently turned off from having a kid for at least 5 years
Very well said. I wouldn’t necessarily say a kid brings you down, but from the moment you conceive a child, your life & decisions are all based on them. Your main priority should only be your kid(s) & obviously your husband comes first in certain situations, but that is a different subject.
My first year anniversary of marriage will be coming now in June. My husband really wants to plant the seed soon, but after babysitting our 3 month nephew (overnight, all weekend!!!!) it was no easy task. By Monday we were so pooped. After a couple trials of babysitting, we both decided we should wait a little longer. There is nothing like spontaneously going on date night or taking a trip on a whim. Plus I still enjoy sleeping, thank you very much! lol.
I do think that Shayne and Nik are moving really quickly, especially where they are both at in their careers. At the same time, nobody really knows if this was planned. What if she got pregnant by mistake? Atleast they are embracing it & are excited
agreed!!!!! congrats to you and your anniversary btw CLG <3
I feel like you’re doing a lot of generalization. Your whole point is based on judging people you don’t know by pictures and stuff written on the internet, then coming to your conclusion on them based on just that. I don’t think that’s enough to base on – who knows how much we’re not getting from TMZ, Lamasrichie and The Dirty? I think it’s unfair to draw all your conclusions without any real knowledge. And, you really don’t need to have the typical cookie cutter lifestyle to be a good parent. Just because they’re jetsetters, blonde hair, etc…that makes it so they can’t be good parents? I applaud out of the box type of people that pave the path for the non-normal, weird, non sensical and bizzare. I think they have a great chance, especially if they’re genuine
Congrats Shayne!!!!!
Um, YogaSLUT…I kind of agreed with some of what you wrote. Then I came across “Studies show that the more educated a woman, the less likely she is to have children.”
Are you…retarded? You’re basically writing that smart women are far less likely to have children? What studies are you reading, and are they credible sources? I was with my boyfriend for only 5 months, I was only 22, when I became pregnant with my daughter. We were being careful, but it’s something that happened, and now she…(and my son now as well,) are the BIGGEST and most amazing blessings I could ever ask for. I take it you don’t have children? I didn’t even WANT kids when I was out of highshcool, and now I don’t know what I’d do without mine.
From what I gather from what I’ve READ about Shayne, she seems like somewhat of a sweet girl, and I hope she takes amazing care of her baby. I don’t believe in using abortion as a means of birth control so she has to move forward with the situation she’s got going on. I’m sad that this child will have Nik Richie for a father, but hopefully he’ll man up and be a pillar of strength in this childs life.
um Lala, she did not say that smart women are less likely to have children. Nor did she imply that smart women are less likely to have children because they are more careful as opposed to “stupid” women who are not careful. When you define someone as highly educated, they presumably have a BA or Masters, etc. Meaning some educated women are more career oriented and probably do not have time for personal relationships and/or children. This could be the case for some women, not all so please do not quote me on that. In other words, she is not stating that only stupid women have kids.

For being a mother who feels blessed for two kids, throwing the retarded word seems nonsensical. Not very smart of you.
I said educated, not smart. Talking about school, here. If you’re in school you’re less likely to have a baby. Nobody said anything about abortion, and since you called me retarded, I am going to call you a dipshit.
Dipshit.
“retarded” is such an awful word especially when using it as an insult
shayne you look Gorgeous! BEST OF LUCK TO YOU AND NIK!
Shane you look darling with your cute little poochy belly. Enjoy every minute of it and don’t worry about what anyone else thinks. Be happy, be healthy and be peaceful! Happy pregnancy!
Kindest Regards,
Cathy
