Contracts expired.

BINGO!! And hey the 6 month wait for a divorce to be final would be up now if they filed it at the 6 month mark. Which I said I wouldn't be surprised if that is how it played out. Obviously no one is surprised at this. More so considering the 1 yr tweets out and how that was obvious they were doing other things. Now they can be free and drop the fake act (which was badly done) of being together still.

Henley Hehner? Why would you do that?

OMG I saw the name and though that as well. Poor girl. I hope there is a reason for the name though.....some special meaning behind it. On another note with that I laughed that not only was this news out but the Cody/Danielle divorce as well. LOL

On the name choice, I found this:

Quote

Otis told PEOPLE back in February they were leaning towards “Henley” — and not because of the famous Don.

“When Doug and I first got married — we were married at first sight, so we didn’t obviously know each other very well — and the first morning, we wake up and he goes, ‘You’re Jamie Nicole Otis, and I’m …’ ‘Douglas Edward Henley?’ ” she explained.

It's their decision obviously, but it isn't about what they think of as Jamie's cute mistake, it's about a name she has to LIVE with. But then everything is about Jamie... yes, I forgot.

I never understood the give them a name but not use it thing, but again not my decision.

To me it's not the name itself; I just don't prefer how it goes with the last name.

This is the thing. I know I wanted names for my kids you didn't hear often. I changed the first letter of one of my son's name from a C to a K when we found the name for him. Their middle names are all first names are the first name of someone from our families. My oldest was my dad's first name, other son was my grandpa's (dad's dad) and our daughter is husband's grandma's first name (his mom's mom). I will never understand when people name their kids but then decide to use only the middle name. I get if the child is older and decides to go by that instead but it seems silly IMO. That is just me though. I thankfully don't have a last name that sound weird with first and middle names. My only rule when we named our kids was I wanted them to have different first letters and middle had to be after someone important to one of us. Some like all the same and I wanted us all different.

Whoever had August 22 as the day for the Degroot/Knapek divorce announcement collect your bet....

Anybody want to name a date for N8 and Sheila's divorce announcement?

LOL I wouldn't be surprised over that one either when it happens. I knew they would probably be together in the end but I think it may not last for long. How long I have no clue but depending on a few things I can see it announced before their 2nd anniversary.

Sorry if this is in the wrong place, but Neil's Twitter header implies the next season of MAFS starts in December:

https://twitter.com/Neil_MAFS

Anybody have any information on this?

I believe that is leftover from his season which debuted on Tuesday, Dec. 1st, 2015. This year December 1st is a Friday.

She already has her own Twitter account. I shit you not.

Let me guess it is all about her awesome mommy.

 

I like Henley as a name not with the surname though, and of course it has to reference a 'Jamie' moment. Hopefully motherhood calms the famewhore in Jamie or Henley is in for a heck of a ride.

Henley Grace will have enough to talk to her therapist about...her unfortunate name will just break the ice....

Maybe I'm slow but, what's wrong with the name Henley Grace?  Not everybody wants to name their kids Mary Patricia, Mary Catherine or Mary Elizabeth (popular names at my college).

Really. I recall a back-to-school nite where almost all the other mothers had two names, mostly variations on a theme like the ones you listed - I said, "Sorry, I'm only remembering one name for each of you." Ha!

You just know that Jamie named her Henley, so that everyone who says, "oh what an unusual name, how did you come up with that?" will then be treated to the full Married At First Sight story.

Nothing wrong with the name Henley in and of itself, but Henley Hehner sounds weird together, and the attention-getting aspect as I mentioned above, annoys me.

Get ready for HenGrace's world/Instagram to be plastered with branded/sponsored/ product placement crap-any company that will throw a few dollars and swag Jamie's way...

And there we go. The only reason to do it is more attention and hey maybe some money or free products tossed her way to promote. SMH Honestly these sites shouldn't even allow this stuff since you have to be 13 yrs old or older to sign up for those sites. They are not the first and won't be the last to do this stuff with using their child in such a way. Its one thing to post under her own or his but IMO its beyond wrong to make these up for your kids...more so when they have no say in it at all. *SMHasIstepoffsoapbox*

Seriously I am one that didn't want my kids names to be one you heard all the time. They aren't out there names but not as common as most. I have one of the most common names in the world...my first and middle together are commonly done together. So I wanted my kids to be different and tossed in a middle name that would have a meaning. I also would watch how the names looked altogether as a full name with our last name. Its not that something is wrong with the name Jamie picked but more how it comes off with the last name. Toss then post from below and well there we go....SMH

I work with college age kids so Henley didn't even register on my radar as odd. (My name is Reighley but I go by Harmony.) How do you pronounce Hehner? I can't remember. I tend to think of Jamie as "Jamie Otis" and Doug as "that guy she cried at the sight of." 

As for Cody and Danielle, I think they divorced in their minds on week one of the experiment, after the honeymoon mess. In the little bit of social media I've looked at of theirs, she comes across more desperate to stay SM relevant.

I teach college and some of their names definitely faze me! Henley would be one of them. I do keep a straight face and never make comments, though. Snark only on the internet!

I think the name is pronounced HAY-ner.

Speaking of names... I knew a child who was given the name Snowflake because she was born in August and it snowed.  I feel sorry for her because she is the right age for the snowflake generation.  I don't know her anymore so I have no idea how it affected her but I am sure it did.

I like Henley Grace as a name.

I'd like to take November 27th. I figure that turkey dinner with the families will be the last straw. 

Any family gathering with Nate's mom has the potential to be strained. (Who'd be cooking, Nate's mom or Sheila?)Throw in the fathers of the bride and groom, and it may be a (verbal) free-for-all.

Those are the years you make reservations! Neutral turf, no home field advantage, and everyone gets to dress up and have fun! Sheila and Nate can treat, so there are no hard feelings.

We've had a few "dry tinder" years. The best way to avoid a spark is to get out of the kitchen!

 Brilliant idea about them going to a neutral place and having Thanksgiving dinner at a restaurant. Then again, I'd lose my bet lol.

Jamie said they are going to call her Gracie, which isn't so bad. I've known people to go by their middle name and it sounds like that's what they are going to do. 

Really? Oh, you mean like Leah on Teen Mom 2? The girl who birthed twin girls after a one-night stand in a pick-up truck? She named the fraternal twins variations of the same name (twin #1 = Aliannah Hope, and twin #2 = Alleyah Grace).  When it became clear - about four or five years later - that going around calling both girls "Ally" wasn't going to cut it Leah began calling twin #2 her middle name, hence, we now have "Gracie."

I was wondering why Jamie wasn't posting tons of pics of the baby that really showed her off; figures she saved it for the 'People Exclusive'. Such a sweet little bundle... of cash.

So in this article, it says that Jamie has never changed or swaddled a baby... wasn't she a labor and delivery nurse? Forgive my ignorance, but I thought they were the ones to initially clothe and swaddle the baby, especially when mom is somewhat incapacitated after a c-section.

I believe that was Doug speaking at that point. It was a bit confusing as I misread it first as well & thought the same thing.

Yes it was Doug that said it. It would have been odd had it been Jamie saying it considering her job. I figured the didn't show the baby because there was plans to do something like that for some money......and attention for herself as well. SMH
