She revealed that patriarch “Papa” Bill Putman, Neenee, and Aunt Megan were all killed in the crash.

She further explained that “Uncle Blake, Lulu, Alena, Noah and Gia” were all injured and remain in the hospital. The severity of their injuries is unclear at this time.

“We are asking for complete healing and strength for each of them,” Isabelle wrote.

“My entire family — Papa, Neenee, Billy, Jen, Brandon, Kacie, Blake, Megan, Jamie, Blair, myself (Isabelle), Abby, Emma, Addison, Bella, Mercy, Gabby, Noah, Mya, Nova, Lulu, Alena, Gia, Jonah, Eli, Solomon, Uriah, Samson, Luke, and Anna — all proclaim that Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior.

He is our hope, our peace, and our salvation. Even in this time of heartbreak, we rest in knowing that God is in control,” Isabella continued.

“We ask for your continued prayers for Uncle Blake, Lulu, Alena, Noah and Gia as they recover, and for our whole family as we walk through this deep loss,” she added.

“Thank you for every prayer, message and act of love. Your support means more than words can express.”

In the comments on Isabelle’s Instagram post, followers expressed shock and disbelief, with some going so far as to suggest that news of the tragedy must be some sort of hoax.

Sadly, this horrific development appears to be all too real, having now been confirmed by outlets such as People magazine and TMZ.

Meet the Putmans ran for six episodes on TLC beginning in September of 2017.

According to a description on the network’s website, the series documented the family’s unusual living arrangement in which “three generations [lived] in the same house and [shared] everything from one bank account to six bedrooms and only two bathrooms

We will have updates on the condition of the surviving Putmans as new information becomes available.

Our thoughts go out to the entire family during this enormously difficult time.

Benny Blanco and Selena Gomez: BOOM! We’re Married!

Reading Time: 3 minutes

There went the bride, folks!

And the Internet cannot stop celebrating.

On September 27, Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco celebrated two years of dating by taking the most important step any couple can take:

They went ahead and got married!

Gomez confirmed the blessed news on Instagram, sharing a series of photos and clips from the nuptials and the simple caption: “🤍 9.27.25 🤍.”

We’ve uploaded one of these pictures below.

For the huge day, the artist walked down the aisle in a satin halterneck gown with lace detailing on the bodice and around the neck.

She also held a bouquet of white baby’s breath flowers as she wrapped her arm around her husband’s neck. It was really very beautiful.

For his part, Benny complemented his now wife’s look with a classic black tuxedo and bowtie, along with a white button down shirt with lace detailing.

Ahead of their nuptlais, Gomez celebrated her bachelorette party in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, while Blanco had his own bash in Las Vegas.

The singer and her friends were spotted dancing, laughing and soaking up the sun on a luxury yacht August 23.

Among the famous faces spotted at the weekend festivities were Gomez’s Only Murders in the Building costars Paul Rudd, Steve Martin and Martin Short.

Prior to striking up a red hot romance, Gomez and Blanco collaborated on various tracks, including “Same Old Love” and “Kill Em With Kindness” from her 2015 album, Revival.

Their working relationship led to a friendship, which eventually became something more. They got engaged this past December.

The famous twosome had dropped hints here and there about what their wedding and reception might be like.

During their appearance on the Today show on March 21, for example, they said wanted their big occasion “to be pretty casual.” Blanco revealed they had one wedding must-have: “Pickles.”

“It was really simple. We got in the studio to work on a song and we just talked; that’s how easy it was for me. I liked him before he liked me,” Gomez said in a joint Interview magazine profile with Blanco published in February 2025.

All it took was two dates for Blanco to be fully smitten.”

“It was easy,” he previously explained. “You know when you think you met the right person, you’re like, ‘Oh, my God.’ But it feels so different. The second we started hanging out, I was like, ‘This is my wife.’ I was telling my mom, ‘This is the girl I’m going to marry.’ … She’s my best friend.”

And now they’ve done ahead and made this prediction into a reality! Congratulations to the newlyweds!

As for what, or who, might come next?

Gomez said on the March 24 episode of the Jay Shetty Podcast that a family could be on the way:

“I don’t know what will happen, obviously, but I love children … I love making [children] laugh; they’re just so sweet. So absolutely, when that day comes, I’m so excited for it.”

Reading Time: 3 minutes

It’s official! Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco have tied the knot!

The A-list couple exchanged vows Saturday afternoon at a star-studded ceremony in Santa Barbara.

While the newlyweds did an impressive job of keeping most of the details under wraps, news of the nuptials leaked on Friday afternoon.

Details of Selena Gomez-Benny Blanco wedding leak to media

About 24 hours before the wedding, various tabloid outlets reported that the preprations were underway, and a rehearsal dinner had been scheduled for Friday night.

“It will be a huge, A-list, star-studded wedding planned by Mindy Weiss,” a source told Us Weekly, adding that the guest list would include of Taylor Swift and Selena’s Only Murders in the Building costars Martin Short and Ashley Park.

“Guests still do not know exact locations for the rehearsal or the wedding.”

Yes, the happy couple did their best to keep the specifics under wraps until the big moment arrived.

Insiders say special precautions were taken to keep Taylor’s arrival under wraps.

That’s no surprise, given that Taylor has been keeping a lower profile in general lately.

She even hid behind a security screen while attenging a Kansas City Chiefs game.

Despite the A-list table chart (some social media users quipped that the wedding was nearly as star-studded as the Met Gala), organizers did an impressive job keeping a tight lid on the details.

Insiders say Selena ‘snubbed’ her mother ahead of ceremony

Selena’s parents were in attandance at the ceremony, but insiders claim that her mom, Mindy Teefey, felt “snubbed” when she learned that Selena had chosen to have her grandfather walk her down the aisle.

“Selena’s mother and her stepfather Brian were shattered she didn’t choose her mother to walk her down the aisle,” an insider told the Daily Mail of the Disney Channel alum’s nuptials on Saturday.

“In a shock move she chose her grandfather David [Cornett] to give her away to Benny.”

“David and his wife Debbie broke down in tears of joy when she asked him. Selena made the decision as soon as they started planning the wedding.”

Teefey hasn’t replied to the speculation, but again — this was a very secretive wedding.

“All the guests will be picked up and driven to the location without knowing their destination ahead of time,” one insider tells the Mail.

“Everyone is so excited despite the mystery, they know it will be an amazing time.”

Well, we’re sure Mandy enjoyed the ceremony regardless. We’d like to extend our sincere congratulations to Benny and Selena!
