"Real" Househusband Tries to "Quiet Demons"

31. #19- You're the one on that's a crackhead. Learn how to read. He was hit on the head over 20 years ago (86'). Cancer is a disease. Chosing to medicate yourself by drinking because of marial, finacial, or any other problems isn't a disease! People like you and this guy never take responsiblity for their poor choices.

32. HIS BRAIN INJURY IS NO EXCUSE FOR HIS HATEFUL ,MEAN ASS WAYS! SHE STAYED WITH HIM AS LONG AS SHE COULD STAND HIM.HE WAS VERY ABUSIVE(VERBAL) TO HER AND ALSO HIS KIDS.HE TOOK NO INTEREST IN THEIR LIFE AND WHEN THE SHOW STARTED HE WAS VERY JELOUS AND DID NOT WANT TO BE ON THE SHOW.IF YOU EVER SAW THE SHOW WHEN HE WAS THERE HE WOLD LEAVE. HE HAS ALWAYS BEEN A DRINKING MAN AND A PILL POPPER. THIS IS ONLY THE BEGINNING FOR THESE "HOUSEWIVES" (YEAH RIGHT) THEIR LIFE WILL BE MORE OPEN TO THE PUBLIC THAN BEFORE. THE NEWS MEDIA IS ALL OVER THESE FAMILYS JUST WANITING FOR ANOTHER ONE OF THE HUSBANDS OR KIDS TO SCREW UP.MONEY TALKS AND IT HAS TALKED FOR QUITE AWHILE FOR MATT.THE MONEY IS ONE OF THE REASONS HE ONLY GOT PROBATION FOR HIT AND RUN,AND THE MONEY IS ONE OF THE REASONS THIS DATE HAS BEEN PUT OFF!!

33. Coulnd't agree more. with #25.....the Keough family wants their privacy NOW????? LMAO!

They sure as hell didn't want their privacy when they $old their $oul$ to a Z-list reality tv show and exposed themselves as total white trash idiots with money.

I, too hope the injured cyclist sues their asses and gets every penny those shallow, self indulgent, narcissitic morons have!
Happy new year Jeana!

34. I hope he gets the help he needs. After the accident he was never the same. His wife stayed with him as long as she could, she didnt ask for a life like that

35. All the comments state what is forgotten:This alcoholism,is what it does, Takes your , family,business,faith,and your life. I saw for the first t time, Orange Co Housewives, what it was a program re: money,sex,ego and drinking to excess, I have never seen a program devoted to disfunction like this in my life. Sadly in at least Orange Co,, where I live: their are sick people like this who live this discusting scenario and some people wish they could live like them. The only scenario not involved in this picture is death ::and if their is no change that will probably be down the road.

36. What is with these celebs and their excuses??? my bus got pulled over (R. Kelly) Spears was too ill to go to depo but out partying that night, Michael Vick found God after he was found out about his discusting dog fighting and worst of all killing them, now, the hit in the head with the baseball caused his problem and on and on..

37. It's sad but true, a traumatic brain injury like he had (he developed a blood clot on his brain and required surgery, it ended his baseball career), can change your life forever. All different in an instant. No, he has not coped well, but few people do. His wife even stated that he was never the same, his personality was gone, and that was the reason she stayed married to him for so long, because it was not really his fault. I have a family member that suffered a similiar injury from a car accident - one minute fine, the next minute, everything had all changed. She has never been the same, and she was hit from behind on the freeway by an 18-wheeler. 10 years ago, and she has been in and out of mental hospitals ever since. Mental illness is not something that you can easily fix with a pill, folks. It can be with you for the rest of your life.

39. Oh, don't get me wrong. I'm sure his wife and family have suffered greatly, but that's what happens to people who have this this sort of injury. Like I said, I am one of the few friends my buddy still has- and he was a popular guy back in the day! But I simply will not stand by and let idiots call this sort of injury total bs! If people are stupid, they should be called on it!

40. Every one of the "Real Housewives of Orange County"has sold their souls to the devil. They are pimping themselves, their families and their kids on national TV for Gods sake! Matt Keough clearly did not want to be a part of his wife's pimping of their family on the show. He had personal, private health and mental issues, yet his IDIOT wife Jeana chose to put the family's disfunctional private life on display for all to see! She sold out the family for fame. Even her kids did not want to be on the show. Now I'm sure their "Big Momma" regrets not listening to her family, and putting her own need to again be in the limelight in front of her husband and kids needs to remain private. Jeana (and all the housewives on the show for that matter) parade around like over-age hookers-all painted up like circus clowns GET OVER IT GIRLS....think you're still hot...well guess what YOU'RE NOT !!!.

41. All the housewives on the show will end up divorced and with their kids hating them. Reality shows always break the families apart. The best example on the show is Laurie Waring who abandones her son for a new life with a rich guy. Her son even tells her ON THE SHOW, WITH THE CAMERAS ROLLING, Mom, I feel you're abandoning me for a life with a new family: AND THEN SHE GOES AND DOES IT ANYWAY! AND she's even proud of it, she now says I FEEL LIIKE ROYALTY, I'm THE LUCKIEST GIRL IN THE WORLD, I'VE NEVER BEEN THIS HAPPY!...Laurie...please look in the mirror...you're not a girl, nor a princess, and you certainly can't be serious about being happy...with your only son suffering and in so much torment...you're in denial...living in a fantasy world...the TV audience doesn't think you're pretty or even nice...and you're a terrible mother...seriously, go get some professional mental help before you crack from the guilt of what you've done to your son...

42. I hope his family is doing ok ! I have a father that played proffesional sports and it takes a special person to fit their mold. I am not forgiving or forgeting the role he played in my life but the most important thing he taught me was the ability to indure anything! I wish the Keogh Family well!

43. look at the horrible phote of Matt Keough: What you see is the "Real Orange County". That's reality The show is not reality: it's just a bunch of gussied-up aging publicity whores, trying desperately for a chance at fame Don't the housewives on the show realize how ridiculous they look? Less is more. They make Britney Spears look like a genius. Even Britney's acne marked face looks better than their botox-filled, stretched out mask-like faces. Plastric surgery nightmares!!!...Yuck!...Who do they think they're fooling!...they're only fooling themselves..........no one admires them..not even their own kids! Their kids all hate them on the show...and for good reason..their moms are all selfish, self-centered bitches...no wonder all the kids on the show are so screwed up~

44. I think Matt had problems before he was hit on the head. His wife stated I think in the first season that his mother had 3 girls she was choosing from for him to marry and that SHE picked Jeanna because of her sturdy stock so they would have kids that were athletic.
Laurie makes me sick. She did indeed IMO toss out her son so he wouldn't pose a problem for her new money man, I mean George. Then she cries (well, water was coming from her eyes, but the rest of her face didn't move) that her son now lives with he money mans, I mean George's ex wife.
