Married

HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry made headlines when a NY tabloid speculated on the state of their marriage since they haven’t been accompanying each other while on various trips. Here’s what we know. Aside from typical marital issues there’s no trouble in paradise. As Meg and Harry settle into their marriage they’re at that stage where they’re comfortable spending time apart, especially when it involves business trips and ventures. My well placed source says all is fine and that the couple is actually trying to expand their family.

Paris Hilton made the news when she shared an iconic paparazzi photo from 18 years ago of her, Britney Spears, and Lindsay Lohan, leaving the Beverly Hills Hotel. It was iconic because at the time Paris was the world’s biggest reality star (and one of the first) Britney the biggest popstar, and Lindsay the biggest movie star of her generation. Don’t think for a second that this was some random social media post – conniving Paris has a plan. She’s eager to reclaim the level of fame she enjoyed 2 decades ago and is negotiating to team up with Britney and Lindsay for a movie about -what else- 3 former teen stars who reunite 20 years later. Paris has a team working on the rom-com script and my source says Netflix is interested.

Oliver Hudson was a topic of conversation this week after revealing Kurt Russell offered to adopt him and his sister Kate (Kurt is the longtime companion of their mom Goldie Hawn). What he didn’t reveal, though, was after all these years, Goldie and Kurt might actually be MARRIED. The former couple applied for a PRIVATE marriage license (available in California for an additional fee -this means there’s no public record of the marriage and it’s all kept private- they’re extremely popular with celebrities and the upper class for privacy reasons). My source says that Goldie has dropped a few hints but has yet to confirm if she and Kurt went through with it or just applied for the license.

Reality fans will either rejoice or be sad that Bravo announced the entire cast of Vanderpump Rules was getting replaced except for Lisa Vanderpump. Loyal readers will remember we reported some rumblings about this months ago. Here’s what we know. The show is eventually being retooled to have all of the action take place in Las Vegas where Lisa is spearheading some new ventures. The new season will start at her restaurant Sur in West Hollywood with a new cast, but quickly spread to Sin City, where Andy Cohen and the folks at Bravo are eventually planning to expand their Real Housewives franchise with Lisa starring in at least the first season.

Sean Diddy Combs made the news when he was denied bail for the third time, but don’t think for a moment the disgraced rapper is giving up. We just heard that Diddy is planning to either REPLACE his entire legal team or at the very least beef it up with some new players. Get this… he’s hoping to poach some of Donald Trump’s former criminal attorneys! My source says Sean can’t believe he’s still locked up and denied bail, so he’s willing to spend WHATEVER it takes on the best legal eagles to get him sprung from the pokey on bail until his upcoming May 2025 trial.

And finally, Vice President Kamala Harris made the news for taking some time off and visiting Hawaii for Thanksgiving (a well deserved vacation in our opinion). Here’s the latest on Kamala. Once she’s done with Washington, DC her FIRST interview will be with her buddy Oprah Winfrey where she will discuss her thoughts on her last minute presidential campaign. Her next professional step will be hosting a podcast as she decides whether to continue to pursue a career in politics or focus on the private sector.

Happy Thanksgiving readers! We are thankful for the opportunity to bring you the best Hollywood gossip. We will continue to dish it out if you continue to keep gobbling it up….and remember to SHARE!

HILARY SWANK: NO LONGER MISSING IN ACTION

It’s been a few years since we’ve seen Hilary Swank, 48, and today she popped up to promote her new series, Alaska Daily, and she was full of good news. Apparently she took a break from Hollywood in 2017 to care for her father who had a lung transplant. He died in 2021, but during her time off, Hilary not only got married, but became pregnant with twins. (She always talked about wanting kids) She very quietly married Philip Schneider (not sure what he does for a living) in a secretive wedding in 2019 in Carmel, Cal. We didn’t even know she was DATING anyone! It’s not surprising that she’s in a great mood promoting her new drama series – she plays a culture-shocked investigative journalist who moves from New York to Alaska. Nice to see her so happy…

LOOK LIKE ANYONE YOU KNOW?

Does this face look familiar? She’s starting to look like Madonna or a Kardashian with all that fakery, but it’s actually Lindsay Lohan. The Mean Girls star posted this photos on Instagram and called it “Glam Time.” Lindsay has been living in Dubai since 2018 – she says she loves it because paparazzi are “against the law” there, and she can have a private life. That’s where she met her financier husband Badar Shammas. They got married in June and live in Dubai, but Lindsay is apparently homesick for Hollywood. She has a Christmas movie coming out and she signed up for two Netflix movies filming soon.

RICHARD GERE STILL ISN’T GAY

Along came the pandemic and we forgot all about Richard Gere. He became single in 2016 when his divorce from Carey Lowell was finalized (She remarked that she fell in love with his CHARACTER in An Officer and a Gentleman)- they had a cute son, Homer, who’s 22 now. After dating various pretty young women, Gere, now 72, settled on Spanish publicist/political activist Alejandra Silva (who is 33 years younger than he is) and they got married in 2018. She comes from a wealthy Spanish family and went to school in the US. They already have two young sons – age 2 and 3. The Gere family lives at his NY ranch but they often vacation in Spain. We remember back in the 80’s when Richard’s career was red HOT, that jealous guys liked to insist that Richard was gay, but it turned out they were wrong…

MATTHEW MCCONAUGHEY WAS IN NO HURRY TO GET MARRIED

Matthew McConaughey ,53, and his Brazilian model wife Camila Alves,43, were guests at the Gran Prix races in France, and from the way he holds her hand, they look very together. They met in 2006 and their first son Levi was born in 2008. Matthew was happily unmarried and didn’t want to jinx it by actually tying the knot. (He admired Kurt and Goldie’s relationship.) But in 2010 after their daughter Vida was born, Camila gave Matthew an ultimatum: it’s now or never. Matthew admitted he didn’t want to do it just because it was the RIGHT thing to do – he wanted to WANT to get married. After talking to both divorced and happily married friends, he decided he DID want to, and they married in 2012 with no regrets so far…

BRITNEY SPEARS’ MCMANSION

Somebody finally gave Britney Spears some good advice. She bought her new $11.8 million dollar Calabasas house BEFORE she tied the knot with Sam Asghari. According to her pre-nup, (another good piece of advice- and NOT from her father) Britney is sole owner of all her money and investments that she achieved before she married. Sam will no doubt share in her future earnings now that he’s her husband, but he can’t take the house away. Days after the ceremony, Britney is already moving into her new Mcmansion in The Oaks – not far from her ex Kevin Federline and their two sons. It’s big – with 9 bathrooms, a 10 seat movie theater, and his n’ hers walk in closets. And it’s all HERS.

BO DEREK AND JOHN CORBETT: AGAINST ALL ODDS

For some reason it’s always a delight to see this couple still together and happy. Bo Derek and John Corbett were set up by agent Norby Walters because John needed a date for an Oscar party in 2002. Corbett admits he was very intimidated by the beautiful Bo, but he did all the right things and made her laugh. In 2016 John said the secret to their successful relationship was NOT getting married and Bo agreed. Yet they DID quietly wed in December 2020 – right before Covid hit. Nice to see their romance survived the pandemic…

DENNIS QUAID MARRIED A COLLEGE STUDENT

In 2020, while most of us were in isolation during the pandemic, 68 year old Dennis Quaid quietly tiptoed off and got married for the 4th time. Actually, he eloped in June of that year with Laura Savoie, 29, a PHD student (in accounting) at the University of Texas in Austin, and the ceremony was so small that there were no guests. Laura is the same age as Quaid’s son Jack, (with Meg Ryan.) Despite the age difference, Dennis is convinced that at last he has found his “life partner.”

DIANE KEATON’S KIDS ARE GOING, GOING, GONE…

Seems like yesterday that Diane Keaton ( A unique Hollywood actress who has NEVER been married!) adopted her two children while in her fifties. The kids, Dexter and Duke, grew up OUT of the limelight and daughter Dexter, 28, just got married yesterday in Laguna Beach to her boyfriend Jordan White, who loves both motorcycles and cooking. Diane walked her daughter down the aisle in a white pantsuit and hat. Time flies…

NEWLYWED PAM ANDERSON INSULTS 4 EX-HUSBANDS IN ONE SWOOP

A few years ago, Pamela Anderson, 53, left her cheating soccer-player boyfriend in France and moved back home to Canada, where she has 6 acres of property on Vancouver Island. Her grandmother had originally owned the land and Pam bought it 25 years ago. (Her parents still live there) There are several homes and a dock that she has been remodeling – with the help of her bodyguard, Dan Hayhurst, who is also a builder. They were isolated together during the pandemic, fell in love, and got married in December. Pam seems deliriously happy – she describes her new man as “a good guy- the kind I would have met if I’d stayed home.” Then she calmly disparaged her previous 4 husbands (Tommy Lee, Kid Rock, Rick Salomon, and Jon Peters) by adding “It’s nice to be with a real man who can change a light bulb!”
