I will say this, though. The social media team works

get all that coordinated once Brooke and Steffy and I get
settled in Monaco. >> Zende: Okay. Sounds good.
Oh, and if you decide you need extra people on the trip, I can
pack fast--I'm just saying. >> Steffy: Appreciate the offer,

Everyone's happy except you. >> Katie: I just think it's odd.
You've had this secret. You've kept it for over 20

You change your mind. You get a paternity test done
