The Stephen Smokescreen 😕🐰🐇

In the shadow of the lawsuit and complaint levied against Howard and Beth Stern by their alleged executive assistant and house manager Leslie Kuhn, alleged sources insist that Howard has a Sag Harbor safehouse away from "Oceanview", that cringy name he gave to his Hamptons house.

Strangely enough, as reported on the 5-12-26 Beth Fan Page, Howard and Beth are planning a vacation getaway in June, which is very odd because that's when Beth always schedules her North Shore Animal League (NSAL) Beth Gala, where everyone honors Beth for posing with animals on her IG Show and calling it charity work.

This year's NSAL Gala is scheduled again on June 12th, and will be held at The Plaza Hotel and Howard Stern's ward Joshua Radin is the musical guest. For the past several years, they had to change the gala from the Winter to the Spring because all the rich people are already at their ski lodges in Switzerland by November and December. so Beth moved it to June hoping a bunch of people would show up and of course it's held in NYC. 

So, the Sterns are doing the Beth Gala on June 12th, then going on vacation, then are back to work? Or did Boss Witz finally get her 3-month furlough from Howard instead of the standard 2 months? Since the Beth Gala is always held in NYC, the Sterns can catch a plane straight from the gala held on Friday, June 12th and then we'll see if they make it back in time for the standard furlough in July and August.

Well, people are talking that they think Boss Witz got the motherlode when she agreed to Howard's three year contract extension and that she finally got her 3-month furlough deal instead of the standard two months during the summer.

Plus, following the three-year contract extension ending at midnight, December 31, 2028, insiders who are not close to the situation, say that Boss Witz will agree to yet another contract extension only if Howard agrees to cut Howard 101 and only continue with Howard 100 and his 2-day per week schedule for live shows. Boss Witz is at wit's end trying to get Howard to retire but he has too many conditions for retirement but seems to be conceding to cutting back his satellite footprint because he has no content to fill two channels. [Ref BFP 4-28-26 when Howard said he might be cutting Howard 101.]

As long stated on this blog, Howard's retirement conditions include, but are not limited to, a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame award, and now add to that list a Grammy award for voicing Stephen the rabbit in the audiobook of "Coco and Stephen", a book by Beth Stern that she is currenlty on a huge TV and radio blitz publicizing it everywhere as if Stephen the rabbit is Stephen King with a new novel, she's that nuts foisting herself onto everyone.

Smokescreen Stephen

Isn't it interesting how Beth has no current photo of Stephen the rabbit with Howard?? Is Howard hiding out at his Sag Safe Harbor House so he doesn't have to produce those NDAs he claims Leslie Kuhn signed? Is Stephen the rabbit already dead and Beth is passing off old photos as current hiding a Coco & Stephen conspiracy? 

Beth passes off a 3-year old photo of Howard & Stephen as

current when it's not

This deception is not knew for Beth. This blog site is the only site to track Beth's bizarre routine of posting years old photos passing them off as current.

Beth's deception is commonplace, like a few years ago there was a major incident with Buddy the cat. Beth told no one publicly about that cat, her little IG followers didn't know she adopted the cat. It had escaped from Stalag Beth in the Hamptons and she had to recapture him with the help of Howard. It was a whole dramatic scene trying to recapture the cat, a cat no one knew she already had adopted but the cat was let out of the bag and all hell broke loose.

Beth renamed him 'Bud' [she used to have Buddy the blind cat that was the subject of her "Yoda & Buddy" book that came out 11 years ago], but Beth said she was keeping him and would no longer provide public updates about him to her IG followers because she was getting backlash over the whole incident. Then, Bud the cat died without explanation thus closing that adoption debacle and no one is allowed to revisit that incident.

Buddy the cat escaped from Stalag Beth in the Hamptons. Beth and Howard staged a 
huge embarrassing recapturing of this cat that did NOT want to go back to the Sterns.
Beth didn't think this incident would get out in the public arena, but it did and came clean
by showing him being recaptured on her IG show. Buddy, renamed Bud, died 9-2-25.
Reference the Beth Fan Page dated October 18, 23, and 27, 2024 and September 2, 2025.

Beth's Clarkson Buddy

As already blogged about in recent blog entries, Beth taped the Kelly Clarkson talk show on May 12th but she didn't mention the other guest was Geena Davis.

Here is the original screenshot where the public could get 

tickets to the taping:

Geena was spotted in NYC on May 13th coming out of the CBS This Morning studios, but how come no photos exist of she and Beth Stern arriving [or leaving] the taping of the Kelly Clarkson show on May 12th?

Beth Bantered about Howard on

Radio Andy

Beth taped her appearance on Radio Andy on May 12th and it just aired on May 14th. She bragged about being a former model when all her former modeling pictures are embarrassing D-List catalog stock photo stuff, bragged about knowing purpose girls like Brandi Glanville, and essentially said Howard is never quitting his radio show.

Beth's Never-ending Big Book Tour 👱🏻‍♀️😕🐎 📚

As blogged about on May 5, 2026, Beth Stern was scheduled to be on Kelly Clarkson's toxic talk show on May 12th to talk up her latest book about a cat and a rabbit "Coco and Stephen", as Beth pretends to be an author when her husband Howard hasn't been able to fund another book for her in 11 years. What a joke. 

But Beth appeared on her husband Howard's radio show this week and said both the Clarkson and Cohen shows are being pre-taped on May 12th airing at a later date.

Andy Cohen is guest hosting on Kelly Clarkson's show on May 13th because he is vying for a daytime talk show. As exclusively revealed on this blog, he was vying for the co-hosting spot on Kelly Ripa's show but her husband got that job so now he wants Clarkson's time slot that she will be vacating in the Fall, even though the singer Pink is a frontrunner in the daytime talk show race.

Howard's spending thousands of dollars for Beth to go on a huge tour on TV and radio plugging her book trying to make her famous once again and it always fails. She just shills for a local New York area animal shelter, the North Shore Animal League (NSAL), and would be nothing without their paycheck as their useless spokesperson and board member and laundering pet books and calendars through their shallow halls.

Beth was on Radio Andy at SiriusXM in NYC on May 12th. Her boobs are
huge misshapen blobs of fat as she tries to rescue those botched
breast implants hoping they can be revived.

Andy got stuck with Beth Stern at SiriusXM NYC to
plug that dumb book of hers. It took Howard Stern 11 years
to come up with enough phony donated dough to fund another
book and giant book tour for his rarely vertical wife.

No wonder Howard had to fire Leslie Kuhn, it was to fund Beth's big book tour since he couldn't afford to get another book published for Beth in 11 years. Beth acts like we all don't know Howard is funding all her appearances and media blitz, but she's going around as if she's Stephen King with a new novel out, she's that delusional.

5-12-26, a nerd from USA Today Pets got stuck with interviewing Beth
as if she's a real author. Beth claims to be an animal lover
since birth, as if that matters. So what, Beth. You're still just
a low rent famehound who trolls around NYC stalking
talk show hosts.

USA Today Beth plugs that "Coco and Stephen" book about nothing. Beth
acts like it's the biggest book release on the planet when Howard hasn't been
able to fund another book for her for 11 years while Beth has too much cheese
stuffed in that tight jeans skirt that's 2 sizes too small. 

Howard's Hamptons Hostile Hostel

As blogged about many times, Howard advertises his real estate holdings in articles disguised as PR puff pieces by plugging in the dollar amounts he paid for the properties, bragging about them, and then what he thinks they are worth now because he is downsizing his overpriced lifestyle having already unloaded his former Manhattan man cave. [See BFP 12-16-25 for the backstory and references to prior blog entries about Howard escaping from New York City.]

Since it hit the online tabloid news in April 2026 that Howard and Beth Stern have been battling hostile work environment allegations from their alleged assistant Leslie Kuhn, we now find out Howard advertised his Hamptons hostel hostile work environment in December 2025, just when his problems with Kuhn emerged, but this was BEFORE it hit the press.

Howard frequently tries to force celebs to stay for a weekend at the Hamptons Hostel where he foists Beth on them to donate to Beth's Furry Friends foundation because these little freebie weekend stays with the Sterns are not really free, you must donate to Beth or you can forget about finding the key to your locked bedroom suite.

On December 17, 2025, Howard had a puff piece posted online on the Social Life magazine website by a Hamptons real estate investor named Cass Almendral. The article was a whole Stern résumé about his past and how he came to be in radio and how his Hamptons house was a way to quiet the voice of his now-deceased father Ben Stern. Funny thing is, the stock photos plugged into the article are not of Stern's Hamptons home, and the whole article features only stock photos, nothing is from the Hamptons hostile home which is super weird.

In December 2025, Howard advertised the approximate amount of $20m that he paid for the Hamptons hostile home, now in April since the lawsuit by Leslie Kuhn was made public, he has listed the value at $50m [see BFP 4-10-26].

This article was a lengthy PR puff piece all about Howard's
climb to fame, bragging about himself. The full article
is at the link above, but who knew his Hamptons home was an alleged
house of horrors per his alleged assistant Leslie Kuhn.
