Here’s What We Know About Niecy Nash’s New Wife—Who, BTW, Sang at Her Last “Wedding”

People already wanting to know: Who is Niecy Nash’s wife, Jessica Betts? The Claws star surprised fans everywhere when she announced on Monday, August 31, that she and Betts were married. The pair each took to Instagram to make their big reveal.

“Mrs. Carol Denise Betts,” the 50-year-old actress captioned a photo from their wedding. She included the hashtag “#LoveWins” along with a diamond ring emoji. Meanwhile, new wife Betts took to her account to share the same photo. She added, “I got a whole wife,” and the “#LoveWins” hashtag to match. Soon after the duo shared the photos to their Instagram accounts, Nash took to her Instagram Stories to share another photo of the couple, writing, “#PlotTwist.” Um, yes!

Nash was previously married to Jay Tucker before the couple filed for divorce in 2019 after eight years of marriage. Nash announced the divorce via her Instagram on October 30 that year, writing, “Our truth is that in this season of our lives, we are better friends than partners in marriage. Our union was such a gorgeous ride. And as we go our separate ways now, we feel fortunate for the love we share – present tense.” Her divorce from Tucker was finalized in March 2020, according to TMZ. The television host was also married to Don Nash, an ordained minister, prior to her relationship with Tucker. The pair were married for 13 years before filing for divorce in June 2007. They share three children together: Dia Nash, Dominic Nash, and Donielle Nash.

Fast-forward to 2020, and now the pair have held a real-life ceremony of their own.

My Favorite Matte Sunscreens For Oily & Blemish-Prone Skin

Sunscreen is arguably the non-negotiable skincare product that pretty much every dermatologist will tell you is an absolute must . Aside from SPF’s beauty benefits (it protects your skin from the sun’s wrinkle-inducing rays and offers defense against free radical damage), you probably already know just how important it is for the purpose of preventing life-threatening forms of skin cancer as well. Unfortunately, finding a matte sunscreen for oily skin types isn’t exactly an easy feat. While I recognize that a good sunscreen is paramount when it comes to preventative skincare and my overall health, I also happen to have very oily skin that tends to react rather poorly (a.k.a. looks like an absolute oil slick) with many sunscreen formulas — both mineral and chemical. However, just like it’s important to moisturize even the oiliest of skin types, it’s equally — if not more — vital to protecting shine-prone skin with SPF, regardless of what season it happens to be. On that note, yes, ...

The Best From-Behind Sex Positions For Bottomless Pleasure

Image
When you think of sex positions from behind , you may scratch your head at how backward penetration could stretch far beyond classic doggy style. And, I’ll be honest, I immediately (and erroneously) had the same reaction. As an avid fan of the down-on-all-fours technique, I questioned how you could possibly switch up reach-from-behind penetration for the better. I quickly realized I was overthinking it. You see, when it comes to sex positions from behind, it’s not as much about drastic directional changes as it is all about getting deep and, in some cases, putting balance to the test. Hell, in some renditions, you can even bring in props for added pleasure . The more research I conduct on from-behind play, the more I realize I have tested many of these delightful iterations in my own life. And that’s the beauty of these backwards sex positions: They don’t require gymnast-level flexibility to accomplish O-worthy depth—at least not all of them do. And let’s not forget: The view is pret...

The Best Drugstore BB & CC Creams For Acne Prone Skin

Image
Temperatures are beginning to sky-rocket, which means if you have oily or breakout-prone skin, excess sweat and shine may just become your worst enemy in the months to come. But if you’re like me, wearing a heavy, oil-controlling foundation with a flat-matte finish feels just plain wrong during the summertime, especially if you’re spending more time outdoors and looking for a simplified beauty routine. For me, beauty should be care-free and low maintenance during summer, not a hassle. While BB and CC creams are traditionally associated with having more hydrating formulas and dewy finishes, if you’re looking to get the fuss-free blendability, fast application and skincare-enhanced benefits of one of these complexion multi-taskers without the risk of turning your face into an oil slick mid-day, switching to an oil-free BB cream for acne-prone skin is your best bet. When both temperatures our skin’s oil production reaches their peak high, pores open up more, which can lead to exacerbat...
