Michael Douglas Urged to Repair Marriage

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Break-ups, Divorce, Rumors,

Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-JonesMichael Douglas' father has urged his son to patch things up with Catherine Zeta-Jones.

The Hollywood couple called time on their relationship earlier this week in order to "evaluate their marriage," but Michael's dad Kirk Jones has begged the Behind The Candelabra star to save his romance before it's too late. "Kirk likes Catherine and has told Michael to sort his problems out. He's been with his wife Anne for almost 60 years and thinks marriage is about sticking with someone through good and bad," a source close to the family told The Sun.

Neither Michael nor Catherine have made any movements to file for divorce or legally separate and are said to be working through their differences. "Michael is still talking to Catherine and their family and friends are trying to help them work through their issues," a friend of the couple said.

The pair's 13-year marriage has been rocked by numerous stresses in the last three years with Michael being diagnosed with throat cancer in 2010 - which he beat - and Catherine suffering from bouts of bipolar II disorder, most recently in May this year.

Ben WishawBen Whishaw has confirmed he is gay and married to his partner since last year.

The 32-year-old actor - who is best known for playing Q in the James Bond movie Skyfall - revealed he entered into a civil partnership with Australian composer Mark Bradshaw in August 2012.

"Ben has never hidden his sexuality, but like many actors he prefers not to discuss his family or life outside of his work. Due to speculation, I can confirm that Ben and Mark entered into a civil partnership in August 2012. They were proud to do so and are very happy," a spokesperson for the actor said.

Ben and Mark, 30, met on the set of Jane Campion's 2009 movie Bright Star, which Ben starred in and Mark composed the score for. "Everyone's delighted for them. Mark's a lovely guy, very talented and very close to Jane Campion. There hasn't been a chance for a big celebration because of Ben's schedule but I'm sure there will be one at some point," a close friend said.

Speaking at the New York premiere of bittersweet romantic comedy Hope Springs on Monday night, she reflected on what makes a marriage work and the importance of friendship: "I think marriage is hard work no matter what. I think it's about first and foremost being great friends."

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Weddings, Pregnancies, Rumors,

AdeleAdele is reportedly due to give birth in September.

The "Someone Like You" singer is seven months pregnant by boyfriend Simon Konecki, but has hidden her bump from the public by keeping a low profile and wearing baggy clothes. A source close to the singer says Simon and Adele wanted to keep their happy news a secret for as long as possible to avoid attention. "Adele has barely left the house in recent months, so she could keep this to herself for as long as possible. She stopped exercising a few months ago, and since then it's been all about the baby," a source said.

Other friends say 36-year-old Simon - who has a five-year-old daughter from a previous marriage - and Adele, 24, have been keen to have children since they started dating last year. "Family is very important to them and they've been talking about kids and getting married since they met last September. I think Adele's still quite surprised at how quickly it happened, though. She's clearly got the usual nerves of an expectant mum, but Simon's been amazingly reassuring, they're both so happy," another source said.

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Weddings,

Christian Bale and wife Sibi BlazicChristian Bale "never planned" to get married.

The Dark Knight Rises actor admits seeing his loved ones divorce when he was young meant he didn't hold the institution in high regard but soon changed his mind when he met make-up artist Sandra "Sibi" Blazic, whom he went on to marry in 2000.

"I never planned to marry. Everyone was divorced in my family so I didn't have very healthy ideas about marriage. Then I met Sibi and suddenly it seemed a fantastic idea," he said.

Christian and Sibi have a seven-year-old daughter Emmeline and the actor thinks being a father is the "best thing ever." He added to East Living magazine, "Nothing can prepare you for fatherhood. It's the best thing ever. I don't want to leave my daughter's side for one second."

While Christian is very close to his wife and daughter, the same cannot be said of his relationship with his mother Jenny or sister Sharon, whom he hasn't spoken to since a furious row at his London hotel before the UK premiere of The Dark Knight four years ago.


Kourtney Kardashian is Scared of Commitment

Kourtney Kardashian and Scott DisickKourtney Kardashian has commitment issues.

The reality TV star is currently expecting her second child with partner Scott Disick, but says the couple have no plans to wed because she's too scared to.

"I have major commitment problems. I'm really claustrophobic and all my issues - and I have a lot of them - they all stem from this thing. I can't commit to anything - I love Scott, and he is my partner," Kourtney - who already has two-year-old son Mason with Scott - told talk show host Jimmy Kimmel.

As well as Kourtney being happy with Scott, her stepfather Bruce Jenner also revealed he has changed his opinion of the businessman, ever since he became a dad to little Mason. "I have to give him credit. He really has turned his life around. He doesn't drink anymore; he's been a great dad with Mason, he's there all the time. He's really been doing a great job. I commend anyone who can do that," he said.


Hilary Duff: Baby Made My Marriage Stronger

Mike Comrie, Hilary Duff, and their baby

Hilary Duff thinks having her 10-week-old child Luca Cruz with ex-NHL player Mike Comrie has made their marriage even stronger.

"It's made [our marriage] stronger. Having a baby is a lot of hard work and you really depend on each other for a lot. There is so much love...you can't imagine it until it happens to you and you look at your husband and you're like 'we did this together.' There is so much purpose now, there was before but it is just on a whole other level there is so much joy and excitement every single day. [There's] lots of hard work, [but] its fantastic. [Having a child] has just done so much for our family. Mike and I were married before and that's a great feeling but to really have a child and feel that connection, that unit, it really has been an incredible journey."

Josh Lucas and his wifeSweet Home Alabama star Josh Lucas is married!

The 40-year-old actor tied the knot with long-term partner Jessica on Friday. His representative confirmed the happy news to website TooFab.com although no other details about the ceremony were revealed.

Josh announced their engagement in January after he had proposed following a frightening experience with a mountain lion while shooting a movie in Big Sur, California:

"As the week went on, the movie started shooting later and later and, on a Thursday night, we ended up getting home at around 3 o'clock in the morning. So my girlfriend at the time and I, luckily we both had flashlights, so we began the 20-minute hike up the hill. It was black - pitch black. So we get to the top and we get into that lovely little trailer and immediately she starts hyperventilating and just can't even breathe. And I'm like, 'Baby, what's wrong?' and she's like, 'I'm so scared, the most scared I've ever been in my life because I know that we are about to be attacked by a mountain lion.' And I'm like, 'Honey, this is Big Sur, there are no mountain lions. That night, I then go home at 4 o'clock in the morning and realize I don't have a flashlight. And as I'm going up, I get to the point where I realize I can see nothing...I hear, totally serious, two big breaths, and six feet above me, I see the very slight glint of the eyes of a huge [mountain lion] and I literally proceed to do what I had just read in the instructions. And I started screaming and yelling and literally being as crazy as I could be, it padded off and just slowly went away and I worked my way into the trailer and I got in and I decided at that moment that this woman was the woman for me."

Victoria Beckham Confesses to Therapy Sessions

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Rants, Rumors,

Victoria Beckham on VogueVictoria Beckham has undergone therapy. The fashion designer - whose 11-year-marriage to soccer player David Beckham has been marred by unsubstantiated claims of infidelity - trusts her spouse completely but feels she needs some help turning her anger into something positive.

"Haven't most people at some time or other? I don't know if I'm balanced or deluded. I don't mean about David - him, I trust completely because we're both such talkers - but I'm quite spiritual. I'd rather turn anger into energy," she said when asked whether she has ever turned to therapy.

However, the 36-year-old star - who has sons Brooklyn,11, Romeo, eight, and five-year-old Cruz with 35-year-old David - admitted she tries not to care about what people say about her, otherwise she would have been driven to suicide "years ago."

"It's never nice when people write hurtful things and as much as I say I don't see it, I'm not stupid. But I've seen both sides of fame and I realize that it's brought me a lot of opportunities. I suppose if I really cared what people say I'd have topped myself years ago."
