Jenny McCarthy Defends Jim Carrey’s Parenting

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Rivalries,

Jenny McCarthy and Jim Carrey with her sonJenny McCarthy has defended Jim Carrey's parenting skills.

The model and activist came to the defence of her former partner after Shia LaBeouf accused him of abandoning his daughter, Jane, from his first marriage to Melissa Womer. After Jim had made a small joke at Shia's expense during the Golden Globes on Sunday, he had responded on Twitter, "At least I don't get arrested for indecency on major LA highways! Or abandon love child's [sic]."

Shia soon backtracked, saying, "Jim Carrey states that he is deeply involved in his daughter's life - I accept that. Regret tweet on the matter. Apologies to both parents."

However, Jenny felt the Transformers star had taken things a step too far. "You can attack myself, but don't bring my children into it. And I'm sure it's the same for Jim. Jim and I have become friends now since our breakup [in 2010]. We dated for five years and I got to know his daughter, Jane, who is a lovely, lovely girl. It's completely uncalled for and wrong. Jim is a great father. He loves Jane more than anything in the world. Shia did apologize and Jim did take it, but the whole thing is, do not bring our children into it," she said on The View.
