Jim, 56, who is seeking damages in excess of $1 million, filed paperwork on Monday, according to The Blast, claiming he was contacted by Slade. The reality TV star told him he and Gretchen wanted to help him in his lawsuit against Tamra and Shannon, providing "testimony regarding the anger, hostility and ill-will that Defendants harbor with respect to Bellino."
