  5. There is a reality star who acts like a sister to a male child who is in fact her child.

  6. Sooo a reality star is actually her brother's mother instead of his sister?

    2. I think it's Courtney from masterchef too. She has a six year old brother they brought on the show a couple of times and she would go on about how he was her inspiration, blah blah blah. I thought it was an unusually large age gap but wasn't too judgemental because there's a 14 year gap between my youngest sister and me. Looking at the two of them I think she looks more like his mother than his sister.

  19. A = Little boy
    B = Older female

    It appears that B is the older sister of A.
    In fact, B is A's mother.
    A is son of B.

    No? Should I use Jack & Jill?

  22. The conjunction screws it up. Mom to a child AND not his sister could mean she's mom the girl and not to the boy, or she's the boy's sister pretending to be his mother.

    People need to whisper their conjunctions better.

    ReplyDelete
  23. A reality star has a son who is presented in the show like her brother?

    ReplyDelete
  24. The reality star is the mother and is saying that she is the sister. So, this can't be EJ, obviously.

  25. A conjunction whisper campaign aimed at Enty.

  31. Well, there's a reddit thread that was created September 10th about whether that was her brother or son, so there you have 27 whispers.

  39. Definitely Master Chef Courtney. That little boy is not her brother.

  45. I think it's the recent Master Chef winner.

    Remember the old story about Jack Nicholson finding out his sister was really his Mother?

  46. She'a nor his sister, he's her mom.

    I had a new employee who claimed she was 10 yeaes younger than she was. I had to insist because, no way, plus I would be filing fraudulent paperwork.

  49. This is that stripper who just won Master Chef. She had a different pair of Louboutins on each episode. I was wondering what the story was behind those shoes....until she almost "broke down in tears" confessing she works at a "Gentlemen's Club." Mmmmm-hmmm......she gets the side-eye for that and alleging she's got a younger brother. Shame on her for lying to him. But the truth always comes out.

    Karma, Court.....Karma

  51. There was speculation back in 2008 that Trig was really Bristol's, which pissed off a lot of conservatives.

    Bristol Palin, and not Sarah Palin, is the mother of Trig. Sarah had a tubal ligation after the birth of her youngest child Piper.

    ReplyDelete
  56. So Bristol Palin had two kids in the space of like 2 years? Because she was pregnant on the campaign trail, too. And Trig was very young.

    ReplyDelete
  57. maybe the palins are irish?? irish twins?? is that what it's called..

    ReplyDelete
  58. I think it's Master Chef Courtney as well, it isnt impossible but kinda unlikely that her mom had kids 20 years apart and he looks exactly like C. It's also been said on reddit over a week, so not a new theory http://www.reddit.com/r/Masterchef/comments/2fz17r/was_that_really_courtneys_brother/

    ReplyDelete
  59. Courtney from Master Chef. I clued in when she said she moved away shortly after he was born. Lots of people do this...raise a grandchild as their own, for whatever reasons there may be to do so. It really does screw up the kid though when they discover the truth.

    ReplyDelete
  60. parents do this so their daughter can still go live her life and b/c they physically can

    ReplyDelete
  61. Bristol Palin is the mother of Trig Palin.
    1) no one really knows Trig's birthdate. Sarah Palin announced his BD as 4/18/08, but there's no record -- anywhere (and she lies a lot). ALL records pertaining to Trig Palin are sealed, on order from the Gov at the time...Sarah Palin.
    2) Bristol hinted on MySpace in July 2007 she might be pregnant. She didn't hint her MOTHER was pregnant.
    3) If Trig was born Jan-Feb 2008, not April 2008 to Bristol, she could certainly have gotten pregnant soon afterward, and delivered Tripp in late December.

    ReplyDelete
  62. Wait. This could mean:

    - She claims to be the mother of two children but is only the mother of the boy and not the girl; or

    - She is not actually her son's mother, but is his sister.

    Which one is it, Enty/tern?

    ReplyDelete
  63. As for the Palin thing - it's extremely unusual for a very young mother to have a Down Syndrome child - the odds of a DS child increase dramatically with the age of the mother.

    ReplyDelete
  64. pb..what if mother is on drugs like meth??
    that teen mom that has the twins.. both are messed up, the girl has a serious eye deformity

    ReplyDelete
  65. also eric clapton was raised by his grandparents thinking they were his parents b/c his mother was young and his dad was a married Canadian jazz musician

    ReplyDelete
  66. I vote that youngest Palin baby is really what's-her-face Bristol's, not Sarah's kid. Or at least that rumor has been floating around forever.

    ReplyDelete
  67. @sugarbread, of course there can be health consequences to the fetus if the mother uses drugs or alcohol or has other medical issues. However Down Syndrome is caused by a genetic mutation (usually in cell division in the egg) and older eggs are more likely to undergo this improper cell division.

    From Wikipedia:

    "Maternal age affects the chances of having a pregnancy with Down syndrome. At age 20, the chance is one in 1441; at age 30, it is one in 959; at age 40, it is one in 84; and at age 50 it is one in 44."

    Bristol was 17 when Trig was born, and Sarah Palin was 44. The odds of a 17 year old mother having a Down Syndrome child are - rounding down from 1/1441 at age 20 - let's say 1/1500. The odds of a 44 year old woman having a Down Syndrome baby are about 1/65. If you do the math, the odds that Sarah, rather than Bristol, is Trig's mother are 1500/65 = 23 to 1. Just based on their ages.

    Now throw in the fact that Bristol would have had to get pregnant IMMEDIATELY after giving birth to Trig and then give birth to her second child slightly prematurely AND, in the small town of Wasilla, where the heck would Bristol hide that first pregnancy? And was Sarah Palin for some reason wearing a pregnancy belly for several months to protect Bristol?

    Makes no sense at all.

  71. Bristol Palin. Oh wait.....that's old news and you said "recent".

    ReplyDelete
  72. Prunella Buggerweeds, you're wrong about young women vs. older women and the likelihood of bearing a DS child. For one thing, 44 year old women get pregnant much less frequently than 17-18 year old women, so the RATIO or PERCENTAGE seems to show older women are more likely -- but the RAW NUMBERS show that there are more DS babies born to younger women - period.

    Also, for Alaska specifically, there are MANY more births to girls 15-19 years of age than there are to women 40-44 years of age (the ages of Bristol Palin and Sarah Palin, in 2007-2008)(for the year I found, 2009): 1,106 for 15-19 y/o women, 152 for 40-something women.

    Using your figures 1:65 and 1:1441, that averages to 1 DS child born to a young teen for every 5 DS children born to 40-something women.


    Births by age in alaska, all races, 2009
    15-19 1441/466+473+55+105+7 = 1,106 = .7675 ) 1
    40-44 65/152+57+3+27+3 = 242 = 3.72 ) for every 5

    It wouldn't have been that unlikely for Bristol Palin to be the one of those 1:1441.

    Also, new research suggests that around 65 percent of women who start trying to get pregnant naturally at age 40 will be successful. That success rate goes down rapidly from 41 to 45, after which point almost all women are infertile. (Sarah Palin was 43 in 2007, and she's said to have had her tubes tied in 2001).

    ReplyDelete
  73. Actually KaJo, you're right that if we're going strictly by the numbers, fertility rates in those age groups matter. Actual Alaska birth rates don't - just fertility rates. To infer anything from birth rates you'd have to go into demographics - how many 15-19 year old females are there in Alaska, how many are having unprotected sex, how many are trying to have a child. Same for 44 year olds. Without all of that data, actual children born in Alaska to each age group is a useless number.

    Let's leave the "said to have had her tubes tied in 2001" out of it unless you're willing to quote a reputable source.

    So, let me refine my argument. Let's assume that 95% of 17 year olds are fertile and 50% of 44 year olds are fertile.

    Of 10,000 17 year olds trying to get pregnant (or having unprotected sex), 9500 will get pregnant and 1/1500 will have a Down Syndrome baby = 6.33 DS babies per 10,000 women.

    Of 10,000 44 year olds, 5000 will get pregnant and 1/65 will have DS babies = 76.92 DS babies per 10,000 women.

    Statistical probability that Sarah is Trig's mother rather than Bristol: 76.92/6.33 = 12:1

    Then, explain how Trig was born - IN A HOSPITAL - on 4/18/08 and Bristol's baby was born - IN A HOSPITAL - on 12/27/08 just 8 months later.

    Yes, a woman can get pregnant soon after giving birth but she has to ovulate first and gestation is actually closer to 10 months, so now we have to factor in the likelihood of Bristol ovulating immediately after giving birth to Trig and then giving birth prematurely.

    So, in order for Bristol to be the mother, we'd have to buck the 12:1 odds against her having a DS baby versus her mom having one, we'd have to explain how she didn't appear to be pregnant in the months before Trig's birth but her mother did, we'd have to account for two births 8 months apart and we'd have to invent some huge conspiracy theory in which hospital employees risk their careers to lie and say the Governor was the mother as opposed to her daughter.

    STILL. NOT. BUYING. IT.

    ReplyDelete
  74. This page indicates that for non-breastfeeding women, ovulation takes place on average 45 days after giving birth, with the range being 25 to 72 days. Meaning that at the earliest, if Bristol were Trig's mother she could have gotten pregnant May 13 and at the latest June 29th - with the average of 45 days putting conception at June 2nd.

    Tripp was born on December 27th. Meaning the longest her "second" pregnancy could have been was less than 7.5 months, the likeliest length was 6.5 months and it could have been as short as 6 months.

    If she were Trig's mother and she breastfed him, fertility rates are even lower. See this page.

    That page says that ovulation can be delayed up to a year after giving birth if you breastfeed regularly, and even if your baby starts sleeping through the night ovulation usually doesn't start up again for 3-8 months after giving birth.

    Now, since Bristol is NOT Trig's mother, we can't check whether she breastfed him.

    But assuming she is his mother (which I don't for a minute believe due to all the factors that would have to align, which I went into in my previous post) ... then little Tripp was almost certainly premature.

    Actually, statistics do indicate that teen mothers are more likely to have premature babies, and especially with their second child.

    But newp - still not buying it!

  76. Yea, I think it is Courtney too. I think Elizabeth should have won Masterchef. The original premise for this show was fun, open to home cooks (the finale was Elizabeth and Courtney, two real home cooks), yet most of the contestants are chefs or sous chefs, students etc., already working in the business.
