WILLIAM H MACY DODGED A BULLET

Can you IMAGINE what’s been going on at the home of Shameless star William H Macy and his wife Felicity Huffman since the college admission cheating scandal broke? For unknown reasons, William was not charged and he’s probably been waiting for the other shoe to fall. So far Felicity has pled guilty and could still serve up to 10 months in prison, but most likely less. Since prosecutors consider the amount of money involved in the crime, Felicity’s $15,000 is significantly less than Lori Loughlin’s $500,000, so things are looking grim for Loughlin. Macy celebrated his freedom by stocking up on plants and potting soil at his local nursery.

FELICITY HUFFMAN: WHAT ARE YOU TEACHING YOUR KIDS?

It was a HUGE disappointment to learn that Felicity Huffman and William H Macy are involved in the college admissions cheating scheme because they always seemed like such an earnest couple. We can understand wealthy parents making large contributions to a college to get their child enrolled, But CHEATING on SAT tests is unforgivable! That is BY FAR the worst part of this bribery scandal. Hardworking non-wealthy students prepare and study endlessly for these challenging tests. WHAT are parents who BUY high test scores teaching their kids? Are these SAT cheating kids even likely to earn the grades to graduate? BUYING SAT scores is no substitute for tutoring and good upbringing.

FELICITY HUFFMAN AND WILLIAM H MACY HAVE LONGEVITY

Can you imagine? Actors William Macy and Felicity Huffman have been together for 36 years! One of our favorite Hollywood couples, they met when they were young actors in a theater group and were immediately attracted. They both LOVED talking about acting and working together, but Felicity was not interested in marriage and they just hung out and dated for fifteen years. Macy proposed several times and almost gave up. Eventually marriage-shy Felicity realized she didn’t want to lose him, so they got married in 1997, and now have two teenage daughters. Felicity, along with her husband, showed up for Eva Longoria’s Walk of Fame Ceremony – she was the only Desperate Housewife who did…

WILLIAM H MACY IS DOING SOMETHING RIGHT

What’s interesting about this photo is first of all, Shameless star William H Macy, 65, took his daughter Sophia, 15, shopping at The Grove and he is NOT a divorced father – he is still married to her mom Felicity Huffman. (for 18 years!) The Grove is generally loaded with single fathers trying to entertain their kids on the day they have custody. Second interesting feature: teenage Sophia has her face buried in a BOOK, not a phone! How often do you see that!

People on the street in New York probably wouldn’t realize these two were celebrities if they didn’t see the paparazzi running backwards in front of them. William H Macy (“The Cooler”) and his wife of 12 years Felicity Huffman (“Desperate Housewives“) seem quite oblivious, walking together on Madison Avenue. Macy took over his role when Jeremy Piven abruptly left the play “Speed-The-Plow” on Broadway.
