JaNa Craig Torches Kenny Rodriguez in Scathing Instagram Rant After Polished Breakup Statement: 'STFU, You Manipulative Liar'

JaNa Craig Torches Kenny Rodriguez in Scathing Instagram Rant After Polished Breakup Statement: 'STFU, You Manipulative Liar'

Yahoo3 days ago
What began as a cordial, albeit painful, split between Love Island USA Season 6 favorites JaNa Craig and Kenny Rodriguez has detonated into a full-blown social media war, and JaNa just burned the house down.
In a savage follow-up to Kenny's polished and diplomatic breakup post, JaNa Craig exploded on Instagram Tuesday morning, accusing her ex of manipulation and emotional deceit. Craig's latest statement isn't just a clapback. It's scorched earth.
'@kennyrodriguez stfu you manipulative liar,' she wrote bluntly. 'You not taking accountability and telling people the type of person you really are is insane to me!! My first statement was me being nice. Do not piss me off.'
A Breakup Gone Nuclear
Only an hour before Craig unleashed her fury, Kenny took to Instagram to share a carefully worded and emotionally tender message reflecting on their breakup and attempting to close the chapter on good terms.
'The past few days have been incredibly difficult,' Kenny wrote. 'Breakups are never easy, especially in the public eye… Sometimes, despite how deeply you care for someone, you come to the hard truth that the relationship was not something that could last long-term. I release this chapter with no ill will, only a hope that JaNa's path forward brings her nothing but happiness.'
But to JaNa, the sentiment reeked of performative grace. And she wasn't having it.
Her initial statement, shared with fans earlier today, was already heavy with veiled disappointment, hinting that something far more sinister had gone down behind closed doors.
'Thank you for all your love & support,' JaNa told fans. 'Please know that I have seen all the breakup theories and none have matched up to how terrible, disgusting and disappointing it truly is. Discovering that someone you loved isn't who you thought they were and that the relationship you thought you were building hasn't been genuine since day one has been truly devastating.'
TMZ Confirms the Breakup and the Fallout
Sources close to the couple told TMZ the split went down on Sunday morning, and it was JaNa who pulled the plug.
While it's unclear what exactly triggered the end of their romance, the aftermath has been explosive. Fans noticed the couple had unfollowed each other and removed each other's names from their bios within hours, the classic Love Island death knell.
Even more damning: JaNa's tight-knit inner circle, Serena Page and Leah Kateb, also known as 'PPG' (Powerpuff Girls) from their Love Island days, quickly unfollowed Kenny as well. Their boyfriends followed suit. This wasn't a mutual fade-out. This was a coordinated erasure.
'You don't unfollow someone's entire circle unless something nasty went down,' one Twitter user posted. 'I'm choosing to believe JaNa 100%.'
The Split Heard 'Round the World
JaNa and Kenny were once fan-favorite finalists from Love Island USA Season 6, celebrated for their electric chemistry and wholesome, goofy energy. But cracks had reportedly been forming behind the scenes, with fans recently clocking a noticeable shift in their online dynamic.
They were posting loved-up photos one night and wiping each other from their digital lives the next.
Insiders say JaNa has been leaning heavily on her friends since the breakup. Despite the public drama, those close to her say she's staying grounded in her faith and inner strength.
'As a child of God, I will always be okay,' she assured fans in her original post.
Kenny, on the other hand, appears to be staying silent following JaNa's verbal evisceration. His Instagram story is now gone. He has yet to respond.

Savannah Chrisley skewers sister Lindsie: ‘We're no longer family, lose our last name'

Savannah Chrisley is unlocking her truth. The trailer for the 27-year-old and her family's new reality series, 'The Chrisleys: Back to Reality,' dropped on Thursday, in which she highlights the estrangement between their brood. The Lifetime show, which premieres on Sept 1, will follow Savannah, her parents, Todd and Julie, and two of her brothers, Chase, Grayson, and Chloe (whom Todd and Julie adopted in 2016). Nanny Faye will also be back, along with Julie's parents, Harvey and Pam Hughes. Advertisement 9 Savannah Chrisley slams her sister Lindsie in her new reality show. Lifetime The project will highlight Todd, 56, and Julie, 52, navigating life after they 'are eventually pardoned, released from prison and return home.' And they are not holding back. In the five-minute trailer, the Chrisleys detail having their 'own family members betray' them. Advertisement 'The prosecutor read the letter Lindsie wrote to the FBI. We're no longer family, lose our last name,' Savannah said of her older sister. 9 Savannah Chrisley opens up about her relationship with Lindsie Chrisley. Lifetime 'I mean, if your own blood will screw you over, then a stranger definitely will,' Chase, 29, added. 'This family's been torn apart. Because it was always like this and now it's like this,' Nanny Faye explained. Advertisement Todd and Julie were indicted in 2019, with federal prosecutors accusing them of submitting fake documents to banks in order to garner more than $30 million in loans. In 2022, the couple was found guilty of bank fraud and tax evasion. 9 Documents from Lindsie Chrisley speaking with the FBI. Lifetime Todd received a 12-year prison sentence, while Julie was sentenced to seven years. The pair has maintained their innocence. 'With my parents gone, our household is completely divided,' Savannah said in the trailer. 'I told my parents I don't know if it can ever be repaired, honestly.'

Lifetime Lindsie, whom Todd shares with his first wife, Teresa Terry, wrote on her Instagram Stories, 'With God all things are possible.' The podcast host previously starred alongside her family in 20 episodes of their 10-season reality show, 'Chrisley Knows Best.' Last month, Lindsie revealed she decided to drop her surname and go by her boyfriend's last name instead. 9 Lindsie Chrisley on Instagram. lindsiechrisley/Instagram After eagle-eyed fans noticed the mom-of-one changed her name on Instagram to 'Lindsie Landsman,' she detailed the reason why. 'For a long time, I very much battled with carrying my maiden last name, and with me carrying that last name came public association,' she explained to listeners on her 'Southern Tea' podcast.

Advertisement This isn't the first time, however, that the Chrisleys' drama has played out publicly. In 2023, Lindsie gave insight into her fractured relationship with Todd and Julie. 'There were some rumors that went around after our last podcast episode that the reason that I have not seen Julie was because she doesn't want to see me, and that is just untrue,' she said on her podcast. 'Finally, I have been able to communicate over [her prison's] form of email for the first time, but also her email is very delayed. Dad's is very different. You can send him an email and you will hear back within maybe two hours.' 9 'Chrisley Knows Best' cast. Tommy Garcia/USA Network Advertisement A year later, Lindsie confessed that her relationship with Savannah is 'nothing.' 'It's mind-blowing to me, the control and manipulation. It very much alarms me, and I'm just going to leave it at that,' she stated.

Dog rests his head on baby bump—then the kick comes

A sweet, quiet moment between a pregnant woman and her dog turned into something unforgettable when the baby gave a well-timed kick… right into the pup's head! The dog's wide-eyed reaction, captured in a video posted to Instagram on June 30, has earned over 580,000 likes, and moms everywhere are feeling both the laughter and the love. Why these baby bump cuddles feel so powerful Many pet owners swear their dogs knew they were pregnant before they did. I know I felt it myself. My dog has always been attached to me, but those first few weeks after I got pregnant? She was glued to my side. It's incredible what animals pick up on in their owners, often before we're even ready to admit to ourselves that something has changed. Experts believe this heightened sensitivity comes down to a mix of biology and intuition. While research hasn't definitively proven that dogs can detect pregnancy, scientists say it's likely they pick up on the hormonal shifts and changes in our body odor that come with it. With up to 300 million scent receptors, dogs live in a world of smell, and they notice every tiny change. Related: You won't believe what this 14-year-old dog did when she heard a crying baby How dogs sense pregnancy Beyond scent, dogs are also experts at reading behavior and routine. They notice when our energy changes, when we move differently, and even when our moods shift. Some dogs become more protective or clingy during pregnancy, almost as if they sense their role in the family is about to evolve. Behaviorists say this isn't just a coincidence. Dogs thrive on consistency, so when they detect change—whether it's hormonal or simply a difference in the way we carry ourselves—they respond. And for many expecting moms, that response looks a lot like unconditional loyalty. Related: Can dogs sense you're pregnant? Here's what science and pet experts say Why this moment hits home for moms The dog cuddling its owner's bump and reacting to that first kick captures a feeling that's instantly recognizable to so many parents. It shows how pregnancy is felt not just by moms but by everyone in the home—pets included. And maybe that's why moms can't stop sharing their own stories. Did your dog suddenly become a shadow during your pregnancy? Did your cat start sleeping on your belly every night? For so many of us, these are the first signs that our growing families are already reshaping the way we're loved. What to keep in mind as your pet adjusts For moms preparing to welcome a baby, it can be reassuring to know that pets don't just adapt, they bond. Experts suggest introducing baby gear and sounds ahead of time so pets feel included in the transition. Some families even bring home a baby blanket from the hospital first so the dog can get used to the scent before the official introduction. These small steps help create a smooth transition, but the truth is that many pets don't need much convincing. They already know. They've been watching, sniffing, and waiting—long before we ever pulled out the baby monitor. This video, and that perfectly timed kick, shows how remarkable animals can be in the way they sense and respond to the changes in our lives. For moms, it's one of the sweetest comforts of all.

John Krasinski to write, direct, produce ‘A Quiet Place Part III'

John Krasinski is returning to direct, write and produce 'A Quiet Place Part III.' The film has been set for a July 9, 2027 theatrical release, Paramount Pictures said Friday. The first film, released in 2018, was a box-office smash, earning some $341 million worldwide on a budget of only $17 million. It also established Krasinski, who starred alongside his wife Emily Blunt in the post-apocalyptic horror, as a bankable filmmaker. He returned to write and direct 'A Quiet Place Part II,' the release of which was delayed over a year due to the pandemic. The franchise also expanded to include a prequel, 'A Quiet Place: Day One.' Krasinski produced but handed over the reins to filmmaker Michael Sarnoski. In total, the three films have grossed over $892 million. Krasinski on Friday posted a graphic with the numeral 'III' and the release date on Instagram. No other details about cast or story were immediately available.
