Yes Craig was devastated by the death of Gia but her boyfriend at the time Ryan Anderson and Gia’s mother are the ones that organized several events in the name of Gia .

Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry to hear that. I follow him on twitter and he used to tweet quite often. Then he stopped. I thought maybe because of his job but I'd check once in awhile because he used to get together with Chris L and Tyler V. I thought maybe he changed his twitter handle but I couldn't find another one.

I know he advocated and promoted the events in Gia's honour. He used to do a walk in NYC and post links to donate.

I don't listen to RS's podcast but I hope he sought the help he needed and is getting better.

I am amazed that he was still managing to function and work! I always liked him and it sounds like he is in a much better place. Probably a good thing he moved to somewhere were the people he is surrounding himself with are a sober influence. Wishing him the best.

I always liked Craig and I am glad that he is on the road to recovery. Addiction can be so scary. Best wishes to him.

I always liked Craig too.  He seems to have such a loving heart and was so happy for Chris when he found Peyton. It’s sweet to see Chris say he’s proud of him for getting help and talking about his struggles.  Wishing all the best for Craig!

@alwaystulips where did Chris say that?

ETA : NM found it.

Proud he came forward to tell his story and hope it will help others battling #addiction and thinking of #suicide https://t.co/hJGAPfXrU2

That's too bad about Craig but good that he's getting help. I wish him well.

Happy wedding day to Liz! For those that don't remember, she was Jade's MOH and on Nick's season. From the franchise, Christen Whitney, Danielle Maltby, and Taylor Nolan were in attendance.

I'll try to bring over some pictures and stories when I can.

She was the one he had met earlier at a wedding, yes?

Yeah, that was her. And from what I'm hearing, her and Jade might have had some type of falling out because she wasn't at Liz's wedding. It's weird because they've been best friends since childhood and I don't think that Jade being pregnant is an excuse for missing the nuptials. But apparently, that's the reasoning that she gave on FB (Babes and Babies Podcast group page).
