Strange how these things work out… for the worse! It looks like Billy Joel is attempting to fix things up with his ex-wife, Katie Lee, who is half his age and is in her current marital position because she cheated on him with a fashion designer while Billy Joel was working hard to support her. Now they are apparently spending more and more time together. There’s never a shortage for gold diggers or poor sobs who take them seriously is there? It’s good to see that Billy Joel still finds the time to keep the delicate balance of the universe still hanging in there.
It seems the singer’s husband hasn’t really changed his more unpleasant habits. Ashley Cole is apparently being accused of having cheated on Cheryl Cole with the help of an American woman. This is what a source said on the matter: “Ann and a friend got talking to Ashley in a bar in Seattle. They hit it off straight away and they spent most of the rest of that evening by each other’s side.” Apparently this all happened last July when Ashley Cole’s team was touring America. Cheryl Cole is of course devastated by the whole thing… she seems to get over the denial part of all of this pretty quick. Maybe one particular song from Lenny Kravitz might help the troubled couple in their time of need… especially Ashley Cole.
Though no one could care less about Jerry Seinfeld and his new show ‘The Marriage Ref’, it’s being said that a special upcoming guest star should pique everyone’s interest. And mine was definitely piqued! The Queen of Pop Madonna will be on the NBC show listening to married couples ramble about their problems and give them advice. I’m not entirely sure that she’d be the first choice for marriage counseling given her failed marriages and relationships but I am interested to hear what she says. Other guests slated to appear on the show are Ricky Gervais and Matthew Broderick. How do you think they would fare?
This really wasn’t that big a mystery to be honest, but it’s interesting to see how honest Mariah Carey’s husband, Nick Cannon, is about her musical preferences. When asked if his wife likes to hear her own music at home, Nick Cannon replied with the following: “We’re talking about Mariah Carey. Of course she loves to hear herself.” It’s so good that Mariah Carey has such an honest husband… their marriage must really be a blast and it’s probably going to be even more of a blast after this. Fortunately, Mariah Carey loves Nick Cannon and this will all blow over… eventually.
It seems that the fact that Fergie has put on a few extra pounds for her part in the upcoming movie “Nine” has not affected her marriage with Josh Duhamel. This is what Fergie said on the matter: “When I came home from filming he was excited. He enjoys having both: the extra meat to grab when it’s there and the tight stomach when that’s there… he’s never been critical.” Aw, isn’t that cute! She’s in denial… but maybe she knows full well that Josh Duhamel is in no position to be complaining about anything right now. Lucky Fergie, she can have all of the ice-cream and chocolate she wants now.
As all Jonas Brothers fan know, eldest band member Kevin Jonas is set to marry his girlfriend Danielle Deleasa. Not too many details have been released yet but it’s being said that one major detail may be the end of the nuptials before they even walk down the aisle. The singer is said to be getting an iron clad pre-nup drafted for his fiancé to sign before they get married. Sources say that Danielle isn’t too happy about the request. As of now, she has yet to sign the pre-nup and is taking time to come to terms with it.
David and Victoria Beckham will reportedly spend their anniversary in the Seychelles.
David, 34, and Victoria, 35, are set to celebrate their 10th wedding anniversary after marrying on July 4, 1999. The couple will now celebrate the day with a break in the Indian Ocean.
Victoria’s mum and dad will be looking after their three sons in the South of France while the superstar couple celebrate.
A source said: “They may have been married for a decade but Victoria and David are like a pair of newlyweds when they get time alone.”
An insider said of the islands’ villas: “To keep out any prying eyes, the stars will have a private plunge pool and thatched massage gazebo overlooking the sea. And a personal chef is on call to prepare meals around the clock.”
Katie Price and Peter Andre fans are still desperate to travel in the reality stars’ “pumpkin-style” wedding carriage despite their marriage split, according to reports.
The couple married at Highclere Castle in Berkshire, UK, in 2005, but it was recently announced that they are separating.
Katie, 31, and Peter, 36, travelled in the carriage when they married and bookings for it are still high, according to the carriage’s owner Georgina McDonagh.
She said: “It’s more in demand than ever, regardless of the split between Katie and Peter.”
She added: “The majority of our customers are based in the UK, but we get a lot of enquiries from Ireland and we’ve done a few weddings and first communions there in the past.
“We’ve a few coming up over there during the summer. It usually costs an additional £800 to cover transport costs on top of the £1,400 rental fee.”
Jade Goody’s husband Jack Tweed has visited his wife’s grave just hours after he was released from prison.
Tweed, 21, was released from an Essex prison after serving half of a 12-week sentence for assaulting a taxi driver.
Goody died in March this year after losing her battle with cervical cancer. The couple married just weeks before she passed away.
Tweed will be having a party in a local nightclub to celebrate his release. Magistrates told him that he would have received a harsher sentence if it wasn’t for his “personal circumstances”.
The singer recently admitted that she doesn’t really like the idea of being alone and that she would most likely marry an older man. Katy Perry said: “I don’t like being single. I live a fantastic life, full of magical things, and at the end of the day all I want to do is share it with someone. I’ll probably end up with someone who’s a bit older and a few steps ahead of me – I want someone I can learn from.” Right… whatever happened to men being like artichokes? I seriously doubt that old artichokes are a lot better than the fresh ones. Or is their creamy center a lot easier to reach since the shell is not so hard? How come Katy Perry doesn’t enlighten us regarding such aspects?
Actress Natascha McElhone has spoken out about the death of her husband and how she gave birth to their third son alone.
Natascha, 37, was four months pregnant with her third child when her husband Martin Kelly died suddenly of a heart condition. They have two older sons Theo, now eight, and Otis, five.
She gave birth to son Rex in October last year, just five months after Martin’s death, and chose to give birth alone. She said: “It just felt right somehow.”
Natascha added to Britain’s Hello! magazine: “If Martin couldn’t be there, I couldn’t replace him with someone, as that would have felt very strange. I wanted to be on my own because that was the way it was going to be.”
She added: “I was going to be my baby’s only parent so I may as well get used to it. But I was fortunate to have the most brilliant obstetrician. He knew Martin, so he was wonderful.”
Talking about her late husband, she said: “He was the most magical father you could wish for. I often used to look at him in action and think: ‘Wow! I would have loved that as a kid.’”
She added: “He had this gift for doing the unexpected and turning everything on its head, which children adore, whereas I tend to gravitate towards the safer and more obvious.”
Natascha added that she still talks about her husband with their two older sons.
She said: “We speak about him all the time. He’s very present in our lives. They don’t really ask questions, but I think kids live very much in the moment and I anticipate that, later on in their lives, they will have many.”
On May 20 it will be a year since Martin’s death and Natascha plans to remember the day as a “happy” one. She said: “It’ll be a happy occasion; a celebration of his life. Martin was such a huge man in every way and so very funny, so there is a lot to celebrate.”
Matthew McConaughey may be enjoying family life but this is not an indication that he has immediate plans of getting married. The “Marley & Me” star has been a parent with girlfriend Camilla Alves for almost a year now to son Levi who was born last July. Matthew McConaughey said he has nothing against marriage but has no plans of getting married right now. The actor will be seen in the upcoming movie “Ghosts of Girlfriends Past” where he plays the role or Connor Mead who is in search for true love.
But has the movie and the role he is playing in it changed his ideas about relationships and marriage? Matthew McConaughey said he has always been fond of the idea of marriage. He said he is for the institution of marriage and has seen couples who have made it work. Matthew McConaughey said he comes from a family that has tested out marriage well. Unfortunately, wedding bells will not be ringing for Matthew McConaughey soon.
The actor has recently shared with the rest of us puny mortals his secrets to a happy marriage. Ashton Kutcher said: “For me it’s about relearning that supporting my wife isn’t about providing $ and Home, it’s about supporting her desires, needs and emotions. Greatest lesson in my marriage. Don’t try to solve her problems, just listen, love and be supportive. This is the opposite of male nature. 2nd greatest lesson. When she says time for bed… hop to, good things await.” Well of course good things await. After all, Ashton Kutcher is married to Demi Moore. Under those circumstances it’s no wonder Ashton Kutcher finds so much patience for everything in his marriage.
The actor from “Wedding Crashers” will soon marry an estate agent, Kyla Weber, who has been his girlfriend for over 9 months now. A friend of Vince Vaughn had this to say about his upcoming nuptials: “Vince is ready to get married and has been for a while. He wants to start a family.” Also, Kyla’s father has been quoted as saying: “I am thrilled for them.” Well, if the father gave his approval, then there clearly is no more turning back now. Long gone are Vince Vaughn’s wedding crashing days… or was that just in the movie? At any rate, hopefully he won’t get cold feet too soon.
At least it is difficult for the home-sexual married couples, who are already married.
The singer Melissa Etheridge married her partner Tammy Lynn Michaels in 2003, on the very next day after state officials granted homo sexual couples domestic partnership rights.
With the news of probable law declaring roll back of the same sex marriages, Melissa Etheridge is convinced that it is bound to fail.
The singer said that even her nine-year old son declared the proposition 8 as “lame”.
Etheridge wrote on a website, “Prop 8 is a blatantly hateful, and fearful proposition that I believe the great citizens of California can see through.”
She further wrote, “I called my son over. I said ‘Read this, tell me what you think.’ He, being 9 years old and very proud of his reading skills, read ‘Changes California Constitution to eliminate right of same sex couples to marry.’ He looked at me, very matter-of-factly and said, ‘Wow, that’s lame.’”
Why our constitution experts are expert at making “Lame” laws only?
Although still rumors but strong ones that Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson are soon getting married!!!
I am still wondering whether it is really love or just another publicity stunt.
The rumors acquired pace when Miss Samantha Ronson herself narrated in one of her gigs, “By the end of this year [Lindsay] will be Mrs. Ronson.”
Lindsay’s rep was swift to deny and said, “They lie,” but I still somehow think that there is something fishy in this one.
The “Mean Girls” babe Lindsay Lohan is yet to show her cards.
Whatever happens? Whether they marry or not, the stars of today’s Hollywood understand the importance of publicity and money saving more than any previous time.
Who needs to throw bags of money to the publicists when they can get more publicity without spending a penny?
They should at least pay some funds to the paparazzi.
Sir Bob Geldof has finally given his blessing to rebel daughter Peaches’ quickie marriage to a US rocker. But as the wild-child, 19, cleared the air with her dad, it emerged that her new hubby tried to ban her from his UK tour this weekend.
Peaches wed Max Drummey, 23, in Las Vegas — after telling Live Aid legend Sir Bob just before.S he faced the music by flying out from London to meet him in Majorca, where he is on holiday with younger daughter Pixie, 17.
After days of angry rows, they were seen airing their differences over her whirlwind romance at a tapas bar in Deia, near to the family’s rented $8million villa.
An onlooker said of Tuesday night’s showdown: “They arrived with Pixie and sat quietly at a corner table on a private terrace. They ordered some vegetarian tapas, but you could tell things were tense because Pixie seemed to be doing a lot of the talking. But after a couple of drinks the atmosphere warmed up and Bob and Peaches were speaking very intensely together. He told her everything was OK and he would support her. Peaches started beaming from ear to ear.”
Sir Bob, 56, and his daughters spent nearly two hours inside Xelini’s — one of Deia’s most popular restaurants and haunt of visiting celebs.
Peaches, who was wearing her wedding ring, and Pixie later went to the nearby Sa Fonda bar. A source said: “Peaches looked like a weight had been lifted from her shoulders. Although Bob was furious about the wedding at first, he’s hugely protective of her and loves her very much — and it was hugely important to Peaches to have his blessing. The meal was a massive breakthrough before Bob meets Max for the first time.”
But back in the UK Peaches was forced to contact gig promoters to get tickets to see Max’s US band Chester French perform this Saturday. Pals claimed her new hubby has been “embarrassed” about all the attention since the wedding and wanted to avoid a public reunion with his wife at the London gig.
A source said: “Max didn’t really want her there. He wants the UK tour to pass without too much attention on him and Peaches. But she sorted out tickets another way so she’ll be there. He wants to sort out where they go from here in private. But she’s got her way, as usual.”
Nicole Richie wants to marry fiance Joel Madden ’soon’. The ‘Simple Life’ star – who gave birth to the couple’s first child, Harlow, in January – is keen to tie the knot with the Good Charlotte rocker once their busy schedules allow it.
She said: “The wedding will be soon. We want to get married, it’s just finding the right time. It’s very exciting.”
Nicole also says Joel is an ‘amazing’ dad to little Harlow and is hands-on father. She added: “He is an amazing father. He actually changes more diapers than I do. He’s always singing to her and playing with her.”
Nicole – who has previously been in rehab for drug addiction – says her life has never been better since she met Joel and gave birth to Harlow.
She said: “I’m happier than I have ever been but I take nothing for granted. I have great friends, a great family, a great place to live and a beautiful baby. I’ve gone through a lot of hardship in my past but I really feel like I’ve come out on the other end. I’d really like to show how much I appreciate the fact that I’m still here, because I almost didn’t get that chance.”
Franklin, Tennessee, was the locale for Sara Evans’ wedding to former University of Alabama football star Jay Barker. In attendance were the couple’s seven children.
Yes, we said seven. No, they are not together. Sara has three from her former marriage, two girls and a boy. Jay has four from his previous marriage.
Minister Joe Beam performed the ceremony. He is also credited with introducing the couple last fall. Additionally, songwriter Marcus Hummon performed “God Bless the Broken Road” which he cowrote. Friends in attendance were treated to friend chicken, pole beans, biscuits, and macaroni and cheese.
Sara says, “It was hard for me to believe he was real and that he loves me the way he loves me. I thank God many times a day for bringing me Jay.”
Days after the singer sparked engagement rumours when she was pictured wearing a diamond ring, it has now been revealed she tied the knot with rapper Nick Cannon in the Caribbean.
According to reports, the “very impulsive” ceremony took place at Mariah’s new home in the Bahamas on Wednesday.
Mariah’s nephew added fuel to the speculation with messages posted on the social networking website Facebook. Updates made by Shawn McDonald to his page this week referred to him going to the Bahamas and acting as a witness.
Family member Linda Cannon confirmed the news, saying: “Nick called us and told us all about it. We are happy for him. If that is what he wants then we are happy for him. I’m not going to give you any details, but we are happy for him.”
Another source confirmed the news, adding that there was no pre-nuptial agreement as “there wasn’t time”. It was reported yesterday that the $2.5 million ring Mariah has been sporting was originally given to Nick’s ex, Selita Ebanks.
However, jewellers Jacob and Co. have dismissed the suggestion, saying they designed the 17 carat pink diamond ring after he split from Selita. Mariah and Nick began dating after he directed the video for her single, ‘Bye Bye’, in March.
