Eddie Cibrian responds to his ex, Brandi: “I’m truly sorry that people got hurt”

Singer LeAnn Rimes spent the day in Calabasas, California with her loving actor boyfriend Eddie Cibrian on April 26, 2010. The happy couple showed one another some affection after a bite to eat followed by some Menchie s dessert. Eddie grabbed his leading lady and gave her a big smooch before catching on the shutterbugs. The country singer is the face of a campaign called Stop Hiding From Psoriasis, by the American Academy of Dermatology and the National Psoriasis Foundation which is aimed at informing the public about the condition and getting those who suffer from it to stop hiding and start living.

Last Thursday, E! News began releasing parts of Ken Baker’s interview with Brandi Glanville, soon-to-be ex-wife of Eddie Cibrian. The purpose of Brandi’s interview, in my mind, was to send Eddie – and more specifically, LeAnn Rimes – a “F-ck you, your lawyers and your bullsh-t apologies.” I was surprised Brandi didn’t come out swinging – instead, she seemed to want to talk more about the history of Eddie and LeAnn’s affair, making it clear that she thinks Eddie and LeAnn are both terrible because they were screwing around while she was pregnant. It took a few days, but Eddie responded. Basically, he’s telling Brandi to STFU and grow up, while she’s at. Only he says nicer:

Eddie Cibrian is sorry for hurting his soon-to-be ex-wife. But he would prefer that she get over it.

“As I’ve said before, my children and their well-being are my number one priority,” LeAnn Rimes’ boyfriend said in response to ex Brandi Glanville’s recent interview with E! News, airing tonight at 7 p.m.

“I can’t change the past and I’m truly sorry that people got hurt along the way but not everything reported in the media is reality and continuing to rehash things publicly only makes it more difficult for everyone to heal. I hope for the sake of our children we can all move forward and heal privately. I wish their mother nothing but the best.”

Cibrian and Glanville have two young children together. He filed for divorce last August in the wake of overwhelming evidence—i.e., Rimes separating from her husband—that he was having an affair with the country singer.

Glanville also told E! News that she found out Cibrian had a three-year fling with a cocktail waitress that overlapped with the time she was pregnant.

“To find out that whole time that he was doing that—it just made me sick,” she said.

Eh, I don’t know what to make of Eddie’s statement, honestly. I doesn’t seem like something he would say, considering it’s so blah and vaguely legal and non-committal. Perhaps one of LeAnn’s lawyers wrote it? Because when Eddie is left to his own devices, he gives statements where he whines about unfair fishbowls. I also wonder about this “not everything reported in the media is reality” comment. Is he calling Brandi a liar, or is he talking about the tabloids reporting on LeAnn’s desire to marry Eddie ASAP? Your guess is as good as mine.

    They both have devilish smirks planted on their faces in everything picture I see of them.

  2. Deb says:

    LeAnn did Brandi a favor, of sorts, in that she found out sooner rather than later that he wasn’t committed to their relationship. Now, LeAnn can worry about being cheated on.
    Brandi needs to take the “high road” for the sake of her kids, now.

  3. One Planet says:

    Brandi was last pregnant three years ago and Eddie and LeAnn have been together for one year only. Brandi was speaking of when Eddie was in a three year relationship with Scheana Jancan that she didn’t find out about until the Eddie/LeAnn news came out. The Scheana affair had been in the tabs before he met LeAnn but Brandi must not have seen it.

    I would like to see LeAnn leave Eddie soon. He seems to have a long-term problem with multiple infidelity. He’s ten years LeAnn’s senior. Brandi acts like a woman who would take him back under conditions of marriage counseling and others.

    Send him on his way LeAnn!

  4. Judy says:

    This whore needs to tell his whore to shut her hole to and stop trying to sell her album. The wife has every right to speak if she feels like it. If he was looking out for his children there wouldn’t be pictures circling the internet with the whore sucking his finger while he was married. If he gave a damn about his children he would have respected their mother.

  5. Anna E. says:

    @Deb and @OnePlanet

    My thoughts precisely. Eddie, if he is to get on track, should seek serious counseling and LeAnn ought to pick it up, shake it off and distance herself from this experience. Let Eddie tend to his kids and LeAnn could take some time off from relationships, reflect and find a younger man, minus Eddie’s burdensome luggage, and begin a family of her own. Much better chance of it lasting.

  6. irena NL says:

    LeAnn will continue to be covered by the press because of her status as an entertainer….that’s a given. Brandi seems extremely jealous of that fact and will have to accept that she can’t erase LeAnn’s celebrity if she and Eddie stay a couple.

    I’d like to see LeAnn discard the Eddie, also. Let it settle and look forward. It’s been a long time for this to still be discussed. I can’t think of another spurned woman of a HW star coming out again and again in the press as Brandi.Most accept it and start to rebuild a new life. I sincerely hope she can do that for her happiness and kids.

  7. Erin says:

    Karma is a bitch.

  8. Larissa says:

    @Irena, I think she is more than entitled to come out to the press , or to discuss it as much as she wants…who are you people to tell her to move on, seriously? lol

  9. irena NL says:

    @Larissa

    No one is disputing her entitlement to do that. It’s lacking in good sense and thoughtfulness for their children. Best to put it in a forward gear after so long.

  10. Ricci says:

    @HotPackets

    what you are seeing is happiness.
    There is a lot of chemistry too
    Also she is not ugly , she is cute.
    Damn jealous ppl..

  11. Orbit says:

    This, English students, is why you use or don’t use the passive voice. People got hurt, but it might not have been my fault.

  12. MoMo says:

    Okay part of me would like to see a reality show with these two (the morbid, messed up part of me). But seriously, just to be a fly on the wall for a day in their lives, to see what goes on between them…priceless. Ha Ha they look about as happy as Tom Kat in those red carpet pics.

  13. Wif says:

    They *do* look really happy together though.

  14. RHONYC says:

    dearest brandi,

    “don’t get mad…get everything!” – ivana trump

    “It’s no use sitting down
    Don’t walk round with a frown
    Oh no, keep looking
    It’s no use sitting around
    With your head in your hands
    Oh no, keep looking” – sade

    “keep your waist tight,
    your clavicles sharp,
    move on,
    and land a bigger fish” – rhonyc 🙂

  15. jj says:

    LR has a spread in People discussing the affair. Serial Cheater Eddie has no problemo with this. Brandi talks about the pain of betrayal and Eddie the Idiot says she she move on??????????? Oops forgot LR has him on a short leasch and yanked it, so he came out with this statement. If his children are the priority then why did he lie and sleep with three women during the same period of time? Cannot wait for the LR/EC bubble to burst.

  16. LolaBella says:

    All three of them need to STFU, act like adults and MOVE ON!

    Enough of these statements to the press/tweets/stories from ‘sources/friends’.

  17. Lori says:

    I’m just gonna say it, even though I know there will be hate spewed in my direction…

    There is a special place in Hell for LeAnn and Angelina. My 2 cents.

  18. malachais says:

    @Deb, I totally agree with you. I don’t think Leann is his “Soulmate” or his “future wife” by any means. The public is interested in hearing about Brandi’s side of the story, and more than likely she did the interviews because of that restraining order thing Leann placed against her. If I was in Brandi’s position, I’d prob do the same thing, but I wouldn’t focus my conversation on how they are just wrong for being cheaters. At the end of the day, Leann did her a favor.

    I give it a year or less before Eddie drops Leann… or they’ll get married, have a kid, then he will leave her.

  19. lrm says:

    omg-he is SO using Leann.
    Leann is also a dog-she’s ugly. frankly. borderline cute, at times…

    in every pic, he is just smirking at the camera in his ‘hey, ho, hey’ pose….look at me!!!!

    he’s so using her a la Dean and Tori.
    so painfully obvious, just looking at the photos.

    wife IS lucky she got rid of him sooner than later. guy is interested in fame, as his main priority. good to know.

  20. Rosanna says:

    Way more mature than Brandi. Regardless of the infidelities, the kids don’t deserve to have it rehashed every freaking time just to play saint. NO relationship ends because of one person only. Teaching something like that to a kid is downright irresponsible other than simply inaccurate.

  21. Feebee says:

    I think Brandi should move on when she’s good and ready to. Fuck Eddie and LeAnn. They’ve moved on, good for them. It’s a little easier for the screwers to move on than screwee. Having said that, the 12 month mark is definitely a cut off (at least publicly). See Aniston.

    I hate it when one of the exs refers the other as “my children’s father” or as “their mother”. It’s so impersonal, patronising and just cold… blah. Especially if the children were part of a marriage or committed relationship as opposed to a one night stand/short fling.

  22. truebie says:

    LeAnn did do Brandi a ‘favor’ in one way, helping her find out about his infidelties. But, LeAnn also willingly entered into an affair with a married man and was public about it…so I can’t wait for Eddie to cheat on her publicly and put her through the same embarrassment she helped put Brandi through. She deserves as much embarrasment and ridicule as him.

  23. Sandy says:

    Gee golly wiz I am sure sawry that I slipped and fell down and when I fell my penis went into another woman’s vagina and then damn if it dint happen again blah blah blah and then I tried to lie my way out of it and damn if I dint get caught. But I sure am sorry that the janitor left a wet floor and I felled in da first place so it’s really all his fault.

    Ummm, Eddie, you lying cheating beyotch, you and your homewrecking adulterous hobag do not GET TO TELL ANYONE ELSE WHAT TO DO!!!! If your were really interested in not hurting your children you would have REFRAINED FROM ACTING LIKE A SKANKY HO!!!! So you, STFU!!

  24. Linda says:

    What goes around comes around.

  25. irena NL says:

    jj

    I know of two women. Who was the third you speak of? Do tell!

    Much time has lapsed. Best to put it behind you and find a new happiness somewhere, with someone else. All the best to all of them.

  26. B says:

    They both look like Clown-Men

  27. Peg says:

    The relationship between Eddie and LeeAnn will be over in the blink of an eye. Unfortunately, this was probably LeeAnn’s first real relationship. (Technically speaking) It’s going to be hard on her when he moves on, as he most certainly will.

  28. jules says:

    you found some awesomely bad photos of Leann…uh, yeah- so ugly.

  29. Missfit says:

    UHU, they are always “SO SORRY” then they just go back to the SAME SHIT. They are sure laughing it up, aren’t they, how they got away with it and how they are “sooo HAPPY.” People like that don’t deserve to be happy, and I’m not happy for them, like Alicia Keys and that dude she’s with, sorry, but they just DON’T.

  30. Faithless says:

    Not going to last. To be frank, he is far more attractive than she and is a serial cheater. She is going to get her just desserts sooner rather than later.

  31. Jame E. Son says:

    Dear Orbit (#11),

    Totally. Your comment made me smile amidst alot of nonsense. Thanks.

    Love,
    Smart people

  32. embertine says:

    Orbit, that was exactly my thought too.

    “Oh, people got hurt, may or may not have been by me, either way I take no responsibility. But I’m sorry that happened.”

    What a scumbag.

  33. Johnthing says:

    She sure is ugly.

  34. jj says:

    Irena…Ever ready Eddie was sleeping with Brandi, Mz. Rimes and Scheana (some groupie). Plus both EC and LR were in couples therapy with their respective spouses and still banging each other. How low can you get?

  35. MSat says:

    I love how the CHEATER cites the children as his priority. Please. He couldn’t be faithful even when his wife was carrying their child, so this whole “I’m a devoted dad” thing is for PR only.

    Why should Brandi be quiet about what a lowlife her husband is? Her kids are little, they can’t even read. If Eddie was so worried about his kids finding out what kind of scumbag he is, maybe he should keep it in his pants. It’s not Brandi’s job to make him look good.

  36. Sara says:

    Haha! I’m an English teacher and I always get a kicked when people use passive voice to avoid taking resibility for their actions.

    What a jerk.

  37. prissa says:

    OH. MY. LORD!! The squinty eyes on these two are ridiculous!! Is it me or is he beginning to look like her? I don’t remember his eyes being so squinty before. Weird!

  38. buckley says:

    “As I’ve said before, my children and their well-being are my number one priority,”

    Oh yea Eddie, quite obviously…

    Hope your tiny career tanks.

  39. original kate says:

    these three need to put duct tape over their mouths already.

  40. Aimee says:

    Leann is FUG, just plain FUG…

  41. j. ferber says:

    Lee Ann’s nose seems to be growing. From so much lying? She looks pregnant, too. Why not add that to the mix? He will so dump her. She is clearly more intoxicated with him than vice versa.

  42. lala says:

    Money money money, Ed, hope you are happy…because all of his relationship with LR seems very fake to me…

  43. Rita says:

    Brandi has every right to respond after LeAnn threatening her with a lawsuit. That’s typical of Rimes. Strut around to taunt and flaunt and then sue to shut up your victim. Eddie replied to Brandi on orders from LeAnn and without a script Eddie can only bend over and open wide. Every time this Eddie opens his mouth he proves himself more and more the king of mamma boys and idiots.

  44. DiMi says:

    1. I find it disturbing that he uses the phrase “people got hurt” both for his use of the passive voice (as if he did nothing as others have noted) and as if the people he hurt were strangers rather than his own family.

    2. I find it downright disgusting that he is blaming his wife for hurting their children by continuing to discuss the situation when he caused the initial and greatest harm by actually creating the situation. It’s shockingly irresponsible.

    The problem with “winning” the cheater when you are the other woman is that you have just won an unethical jerk. Not a prize.

  45. kelly says:

    Both of them just smile and say sorry in such a non-sincere way. The most important thing is my kids???doubt it you would have never betrayed them like that. A distant friend of mine says its a known thing by many of his close circle that he is still seeing this other woman. He never stopped even when he started with leann. Oppps! I wonder when that will come out. OUCH and karma for Leann.

  46. leanne looks like miss piggy says:

    i hate leann rimes. Brandi you are hot and can do so much better than eddie. He is a cheater and will always be a cheater. Soon he will be cheating on leanne. haha. if i were you i would take all his money and find yourself a GOOD looking dude. forget him and his disgusting fake tooth looking gf. her music stinks too. who listens to that anymore? haha. she is garbage and you are beautiful. i wouldnt let my kids around that skank either.

  47. gen says:

    If he was so concerned about his kids he wouldn’t have CHEATED ON THEIR MOTHER! What a frinkin idiot!!! If you want to be with someone else, get a divorice 1st at least. The mom isn’t the one who wanted to put the kids life in turmoil, it was him & Leanne. And ya, Leanne can talk about this in a magazine but his ex can’t talk about it at all!? Whatever! The guy is as dumb as rocks & will never stop cheating.

  48. Green Is Good says:

    Eddie just pissed off his 1st wife won’t roll over and PLAY DEAD so he can have a perfect, happily-ever-after with his new piece of ass.

  49. Holly says:

    There is only one thing worse than infidelity/cheating: and that’s pretty much murder. Because when you cheat, you break the soul of the spouse you’ve wronged, and you break the hearts of children. I don’t understand some of you on this board. Brandi, and ANY other wronged woman, have every right to speak. They didn’t do anything wrong. Why are some of you insistent that they should shut up and let the cheaters escape unscathed? How backward.

  50. irena NL says:

    Because Brandi needs to move on. I can’t remember another woman in Hollywood going on and on so long after the fact.

  51. patsy says:

    LR and EC created all this horrible mess without any concern that there were two little kids involved. Eddie is a terrible father not to have considered his babies before he started living with his mistresss and bringing his and his wifes children to her house of Sin. They think because they are minor celebs that they can use the press when it suits them and tell the press and the public to leave them alone when what they are hearing is not flattering. You can’t have it both ways. EC and LEann you are both adulterers and I hope Brandi gets lots of money to help her get on her feet. I hope the Judge takes into consideration the ACTIONS of LR and EC when he awards custody. LR should never be allowed around those kids.

  52. joe says:

    Brandi is Hot Leann is NOT And then there are the pictures of Leann going after her latest album cover way up in her nostrils, Noticed when I watched the July 4 concert that she really flares those suckers ,no wonder they are so big when she has her finger in them up to the first knucle As a man, I wouldn’t touch her with a ten foot pole even with all that money. If you want to see what I’m talking about, go to “leann rimes nose picking” Take your barf bag
