The Bachelorette alum DeAnna Pappas is ready to turn the page after a bumpy 2025. "My birthday was in November, and with the closing of 2025, I would like for it to just be done," Pappas, 44, shared on the Wednesday, December 3, episode of iHeartRadio's "misSPELLING" podcast. "Bring on a new year, wash me clean, make me new. It can't get worse than what it was." In the past 12 months, Pappas made headlines for her ongoing custody battle with ex Stephen Stagliano. The pair - who share two children - split in January 2023 after 11 years of marriage.
