Reality Rumors

Survivor: Pearl Islands contestant Jonny Fairplay is having a baby.

TMZ reported Monday, Reality television star Jon Dalton and former America’s Next Top Model fourth-season finalist Michelle Deighton are expecting their first child together.

“Michelle and I couldn’t be more happier [sic] and I wouldn’t LIE about that!” Dalton told TMZ.

“Jonny Fairplay” starred in Survivor’s seventh installment in Fall 2003, in which he finished third and failed to live up to his self-appointed nickname when he faked that he had just learned of his grandmother’s death to win a Reward Challenge.

The Survivor: Pearl Islands appearance landed Dalton several additional reality television roles — beginning in 2005 with E!’s Kill Reality, which documented the making of the horror film The Scorned and featured a cast entirely comprised of reality stars.

In 2006, Dalton participated in a special three-episode Reality Stars Fear Factor edition . This summer, he was part of the celebrity cast of CMT’s Celebrity Bull Riding Challenge.

Deighton was one of the 14 catwalk wannabes featured on Top Model’s fourth season and was the ninth girl eliminated.

Deighton and Dalton have been dating for two years, according to TMZ.

Stephen Baldwin was reportedly bucked to the ground by a bull while filming CMT’s Ty Murray’s Celebrity Bull Riding Challenge last Thursday.

I held on for about four jumps, and then I just ate a bunch of dirt,” Baldwin told Reuters in a telephone interview Friday. 

A safety helmet apparently didn’t help Baldwin, as he told Reuters he suffered a broken left scapula as well as a broken rib when he “landed hard” and “got stepped on a little bit, too” during the training session that ended with his fall.

“We were supposed to be on these kind of dainty versions of [bulls] that weren’t supposed to get too excited,” he told Reuters.  “But you never can tell what a bull’s gonna do. So this particular one that I had kind of rose to the occasion.”

Currently filming in Texas, Ty Murray’s Celebrity Bull Riding Challenge is scheduled to premiere Friday, August 10 at 9PM ET/PT on CMT.
