Tough news for longtime fans of "Sister Wives" star Kody Brown and his one remaining wife, Robyn ... the couple is NOT returning for the upcoming season of the popular TLC reality show.

TLC just dropped the season 21 trailer, and right off the bat they told fans Kody and Robyn would no longer be involved.

The two have yet to comment on their dramatic exit.

Brandi Glanville's 'Real Housewives' connections are paying off ... and we mean that literally -- because a bunch of stars with ties to the show donated to pay her medical bills.

As of Saturday morning, Glanville's GoFundMe -- set up to offset the cost of the bills connected to her highly resistant ESBL Klebsiella and Enterobacter with biofilm, Coccidioidomycosis (Valley Fever), Demodex dermatitis and mononucleosis diagnoses -- has raised about $7,000 of its stated $28K goal.

While she's still got a long way to go to reach the ultimate number, Brandi can take heart that some of her longtime colleagues have her back ... like Kyle Richards, who forked over $500 for BG.

Taylor Frankie Paul says she's not getting down and dirty with anyone until she finds Mr. Right ... and she's teasing that she'd like to find him on "Bachelorette Round Two."

The reality TV star took to social media on Saturday to discuss her current dating life ... telling fans she's sorry for those who thought they'd have seen her redemption arc already -- because it's just beginning.

12:13 PM PT -- Video from inside the courtroom shows KJ's lawyer talking to the judge during the hearing, explaining why KJ's case should play out in juvenile court to keep things away from the media and public. The attorney also mentions the polygraph test Kim claims her son took and passed.

The judge did not make a ruling on the juvenile court ask ... taking more time to mull it over.

10:48 AM PT -- Kim Zolciak and her daughter Brielle Biermann were seen leaving after Court on Friday.

Kroy "KJ" Biermann Jr. had videos on his phone showing him having sex with an underage relative ... according to prosecutors in his sexual assault case.

Kim Zolciak and Kroy Biermann's eldest son appeared in a Georgia court Friday as part of a bond hearing ... and Page Six reports the prosecution claims investigators found videos on KJ's cell phone which they say depict the 15-year-old having penetrative sex with a relative under 12 years old.

It's unclear how old KJ was when the alleged videos were taken.

Deputy District Attorney Caitlin McGillicuddy claims there were "multiple encounters" on video found on KJ's phone. She also claims KJ uses "predatory, derogatory" language toward the alleged victim in the videos.
