Jennifer Love Hewitt might be back with her ex, comic Jamie Kennedy: good idea?


I used to have a lot of love for Jennifer Love Hewitt. She just seemed like a goofy, sweet person who would tell you about her issues with men. Then it became clear that she wouldn’t spare any details. She went on to write a book about relationships, and she would make sure we knew about every guy she was dating, to the point where it was surely detrimental to her relationships. Now she’s tweeting a lot and seems somewhat up her own butt, but she’s still nice enough and comes across as genuine. One of the things that Hewitt is tweeting about is this recent rumor that she’s back with her ex-fiance, comic Jamie Kennedy, who was three or four boyfriends ago by my count. She’s vague about it, and just denies that it’s true. But come on, why would E! be reporting this unless she put the rumor out there somehow? It’s not like she’s followed by paps she doesn’t call. Here’s the story, thanks to E!:

Natural brunette Jennifer Love Hewitt —who is no stranger to changing up her hue—debuted some lighter locks over the weekend.

But is the 32-year-old actress pairing her new hair with an old flame?

It sure looks that way!

A source tells E! News exclusively that Hewitt has rekindled her romance with actor Jamie Kennedy. The Ghost Whisperer costars enjoyed a year-long romance that ended with a high-profile split in March 2010.

Late last year, Hewitt split with actor Jarod Einsohn. Fortunately for the star, her old beau was conveniently unattached as well.

“They are dating again,” the source tells us, adding that the reunited couple has been enjoying sleepovers at Kennedy’s L.A. condo.

Hewitt’s Twitter feed certainly has been lovey-dovey the past month. She’s retweeted Love Quotes and Megan Fox’s parody Twitter account’s uplifting messages about romance and choosing to “look beyond the imperfections” in order to be happy.

Hewitt’s rep had no comment.

[From E! Online]

Do you think they’re rebound friends with benefits? That’s the impression I’m getting from this story and her tweets, like this onethe rumors are not true, the day was good,and sweet dreams will be awesome!” These two did part on good terms a couple of years ago, and it seemed to be about the fact that Hewitt wanted to get married and Kennedy wasn’t ready to commit. (I remembered that they were engaged, but that was just a rumor.) I don’t think it will last. At least she’s being somewhat realistic about it, even if she’s putting it out there. She needs to get publicity for something I guess.

Also, here’s her new hair, which you can’t really see in this photo. It’s got blonde streaks in it. (Another photo is here.) I like her better as a brunette. In the header image her hair looks just like Kim Kardashian’s new ‘do, down to the color. So maybe it was a good idea to switch it up anyway.

    JLH always gets slack for the fact that she “dates down” but I always thought that was part of her charm. She seems to date guys she actually likes rather than base it on looks or status. I’ve always liked her, she never seemed to let fame change the core of who she is and I like that.

    • Ha! says:

      RIGHT ON! I hope if they in fact reunited that it “sticks” this time around….maybe he’s ready for comittment now 🙂

  2. iloveretro says:

    Hmm, this girl obviously has a high tolerance for misery. JK is a douche & I speak from first hand experience.

    Run, JLH, run.

  3. kazoo says:

    Isn’t he the one who called her pear ass?

    I like her sequiny shirt.

  4. mln76 says:

    She’s dumb as a bunch of rocks but good natured. Her taste in men his shitty, plus she drives them away with her marraige obsession. I feel bad for her stupidity and neurosis is a bad combo.

    • brin says:

      True. At least she’s keeping expectations low this time (even she knows the outcome won’t be good).

  5. Alejandro says:

    Didn’t he cheat on her with an ex gf? Going back is rarely a good idea as the same problems always creep back up.

  6. Ari says:

    She has a new show coming out called the client list – I actually am looking forward to it – i think he deserves a break although she’s a bit desperate

  7. Jackie says:

    32? she looks more like 42.

    • heidiho says:

      I’m 43 and she’s as crinkly as me even worse crows feet, get out of the sun or quit lying about your age JLH!

    • Becky says:

      So what-she has crow’s feet when she smiles? So do a lot of women in their 30’s. She doesn’t look old to me. I think it’s refreshing that she hasn’t hit the Botox yet.

  8. Little Darling says:

    I always thought the two of them had a strong relationship, so good for her if it’s true. Sometimes the second time sticks.

  9. Kara Ann says:

    I can’t hate on her but I often cringe for her!

  10. Roxy750 says:

    I think she is so pretty, she always seems to have a glow about her..maybe it’s her aura or whatever but she seems so nice and positive. Too bad she has a horrible taste in men.

  11. RobN says:

    Her hair was always the best thing she had going for her and now she’s screwed with that.

  12. I Ivy says:

    This is a publicity stunt.

    A “cheap shot” occurring (by coincidence) just one week before Valentines’ Day….and,at a time when
    “The Client List”-JLH new series–has started filming.

    Hard to believe that JLH has a “real” spouse at this time. And she’s always had a rule to NEVER re-date somebody she’s broken up with!

    That would be a mistake Jennifer..

  14. MAMAKOWALSKA says:

    She’s starting to gain weight back on the bottom end……..she’s a mess……check in on her in 20 years and she’ll still be chasing the first high of romance…she’ll get older, more desperate…..how depressing…….you gotta pick someone while your rose is in bloom deary…..there’s still time…….
