  • Jillian Michaels, Former “Biggest Loser” Trainer Proposes to Longtime Girlfriend Heidi Rhoades

    Jillian Michaels, Former “Biggest Loser” Trainer Proposes to Longtime Girlfriend Heidi Rhoades

    Jillian Michaels, former trainer on NBC’s The Biggest Loser, proposed to her longtime girlfriend, Heidi Rhoades, a few months ago. The proposal was shared on the season finale of Just Jillian, in recent days.

    “Heidi is the perfect person for me. The only place where there’s like a solace…a safe haven is with my family,” Jillian Michaels said in an interview with People magazine. “And Heidi is the nucleus of that family. She’s the glue that really holds everything together and I think without that, I would be lost.”

    Heidi Rhoades and Jillian Michaels began dating back in 2009. They have two children. Daughter Lu is five and son Phoenix is three.

    Jillian Michaels took to Twitter to thank fans for the many warm wishes she and Heidi have received since the proposal was aired on the Just Jillian finale.

    Neither Jillian Michaels nor Heidi Rhoades has released word of when they’ll tie the knot.

  • Jillian Michaels Opens Up About Her Nose Job And Her New Show

    Jillian Michaels is known for a lot of things – her confidence, her determination to make her protégées reach their weight goals and her way of inspiring people.

    Who would’ve thought that this uber confident woman was bullied at a very young age?

    In one interview, Michaels recounted the time when a group of students from her school gathered around her and made fun of her looks, particularly about her nose which she described was “the size of a softball.”

    The incident was so bad that her mother had to place her in another school.

    The incident made her decide to have a nose job, and she admits that she never regretted her decision as she felt more confident after the surgery.

    While she has always encouraged her clients to look for their inner strength to lead better lives, Michaels also admits that a little plastic surgery can be a positive thing, “little” being the operative word here.

    “There are some things that can make people feel really insecure,” the Biggest Loser trainer admits. “So, if there is something you want to fix that allows you to feel a little bit more confident, I support it.”

    But she cautions that it has to be done “for the right reasons.”

    This mindset is probably what led the outspoken personal trainer to leave The Biggest Loser.

    According to Michaels, she wanted some changes to be made to the show but the producers weren’t too keen about it. Reports say that some of those changes were prompted by the extreme weight loss of winner Rachel Frederickson, who dropped 155 lbs.

    The fitness guru believed Frederickson “lost too much weight” and said she felt “ashamed” by the incident.

    But the 41-year-old Michaels is now moving on and will be seen next in Just Jillian, a new docu-reality show for E!

    Just Jillian will revolve around the Biggest Loser trainer as she tries to juggle her private life with the demands of business.
