The Bachelorette’s season finale may just live up to its most dramatic billing. Forced to choose between suave chiropractor Bryan Abasolo, 37, fun-loving motivational speaker Eric Bigger, 29, and reserved personal trainer Peter Kraus, 31, on the August 7 episode of the ABC love hunt, Rachel Lindsay “was torn until the end,” reveals an insider. Her indecision caused her to “make a sudden left turn,” says a show source, and blindsided the runner-up. “Their breakup is the most heart-wrenching of all time,” says the insider. Lindsay struggled to stop crying enough to say goodbye, adds the insider, and after she left, her devastated suitor “collapsed and sobbed.” ROSE-COLORED VIEW While the Dallas attorney admits to Us the scene was “the hardest moment” of filming, she has no regrets. Now happily…

While traveling, Chrissy Teigen and John Legend have just one essential: 16-month-old daughter Luna. When the 10-time Grammy winner, 38, kicked off his Darkness and Light show in May, “we never thought of not bringing her with us,” Teigen explains. And as her husband mapped out his 53-date route, he kept family in mind. “In each city, we try and get an AirBnb, so we can cook and have a normal life,” adds the model, 31. On a break from the road, the spokeswoman for McDonald’s McDelivery partnership with UberEats gave Us a backstage pass. What’s a typical day like? CT Oh my gosh, we’re always on the bus. Luna loves her car seat. She points at everything like, “Trees!” That leaves us to take a breather. It’s a lot…

DON'T LET MOMBOTS GET YOU DOWN It’s fine to skip cutting the crusts, swears the mom of Sadie, 14, Ivy, 11, and Fletch, 9, “or look like crap because you slept three hours as your husband snored.” Immaculately groomed supermoms “seem flawless,” she says, “but many are #deadinside.” IGNORE SOCIAL MEDIA “Images of dreamy children in white with huge bows are only one moment,” says the NYC-based writer and actress. “There were 30 others with screaming, crying and a Code Brown brewing in the Huggies. Never forget that that keyhole into another family's world is curated artifice.” MAKE WINE YOUR BFF Jokes the 43-yearold: “Unless you once woke up in a Dumpster two states away, crack the pinot noir at 4:59. That vino will make bath time, dinnertime and bedtime…

R achael Leigh Cook avoids a heavy pour. While filming Hallmark’s Summer in the Vineyard (August 12 at 9 p.m.), “we drank nonalcoholic wine, which tastes l like wine from the Stone Age mixed with Ocean Spray,” the actress, 37, says of the film, in which her character and love Nate (Brendan Penny) work to perfect their cabernet in time for an annual festival. “Luckily, we mostly drank cranberry juice. But there was one scene where I had the nonalcoholic and spat it out. It tasted like liquid mistakes.” The mom of two (with husband Daniel Gillies) gives Us the buzz. Q: So then what was the best part about filming this movie? We shot in this region of British Columbia called Okanagan Valley. This place needs a better publicist because,…

Unlike Nova Clarke, Cassie Scerbo’s weapon-wielding character in the Sharknado films, the actress, 27, relies on higher powers for protection: “I have this little guardian angel stone,” Scerbo tells Us. “I’m superstitious!” The star of Sharknado 5: Global Swarming (airing on SyFy August 6 at 8 p.m.) empties her Fjällräven Kånken sack.
