Miranda Lambert and Blake Shelton cover this week’s US Weekly. It reads like a PR piece in which Miranda admits that she knows people are saying her husband cheats, but she’s pretty sure there’s nothing going on and it’s just rumors. Miranda supposedly knows Blake is faithful, even though she’s apart from her husband most of the time, because she snoops in his twitter account and phone whenever they’re together. The article also includes quotes from Miranda about how tough marriage is and how she’s surprised they even lasted a year. Miranda and Blake are coming up on their two year anniversary.

She knows it looks bad and she monitors his data
“She knows he comes off as flirty,” says one source of the country darling, who has copped to reading her husband’s text and direct Twitter messages. “She questions him at times and asks about certain girls. The rumors are hard for her to hear.”

Blake swears he didn’t cheat with young singer Cady Groves
“Blake swears up and down that nothing happened,” says a Shelton insider – another source says the ugly rumors have taken a toll.

And at the very least, stir up some memories. Lambert herself has confessed to falling for him at first sight in 2005 – even though she was reportedly in a relationship at the time and he was still wed to Kaynette Williams.

She’s monitoring him on set
“Miranda is definitely aware of how Blake can act,” says a Voice insider. “That’s why she’ll hang out on set to keep an eye on him.” Echoes another insider, “She trusts him, but she knows how flirty she appears.”

They won’t be together this summer
Even sharing a time zone this summer will amount to a serious challenge. “Their schedule is truly the harderst part,” says a Lambert source of the couple, who share a spacious rental in the Hollywood Hills, a Nashville pad and a farm in Tishomingo, Oklahoma. “Miranda always has to go to L.A., or they’ll meet in Oklahoma. It’s a lot of flying.”

Miranda told US in January that she snoops
“Either one of us can always look at each other’s phone, and we know each other’s passcode. I don’t have to snoop anymore. It just takes the question out of the marriage. I like to check his direct messages [On Twitter]”

[From US Weekly, print edition, April 29, 2013]

Is this acceptable in a marriage to reach a point where you don’t trust the person and are digging through their data whenever you can? Or is that just being open? If a cheating spouse knows their partner is snooping through their stuff they’re going to get better at hiding it. If one party thinks the other one is cheating, is a non-incriminating data trail going to reassure them?

Miranda has half-admitted that she got with Blake back when he was married. She said in an interview a couple of years ago that she was instantly attracted to Blake when she met him, that she “knew better,” and “I knew he was married.” It sounded like she was trying to own up to an affair without stating it outright. So now she’s fighting for her own marriage after a scant couple years. She seems to think it’s worth fighting for at this point, but it also reads like she didn’t know what she was getting into. She should have, she’s said that her parents are private investigators and “I’ve seen this my whole life – affairs.” I’m sure she’s seen affairs happening in second marriages too, when the husband decides he wants to trade in his second wife/former mistress.

Kyle Richards of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills has been touting her 17 year marriage, with real estate salesman Mauricio Umansky, as ideal. She regularly brags about him on the show, and Kyle put out a book in December of 2011 in which she crowed about her relationship, calling Mauricio a “devoted husband and wonderful father,” among other things. There were rumors as far back as season one of the show that Mauricio was cheating on Kyle, although those were spawned by Kyle’s then-rival, Camille Grammer. (Whose husband was cheating on her at the time, which she found out about shortly afterwards.)

Many people were willing to believe that Mauricio is a cheater, because he just seems so slippery. He has the facade of a happy family man but he’s extremely smooth and friendly with everyone, and it gives the impression that he plays the “good husband” role and gets up to things behind the scenes. Well Star Magazine has some evidence for us. They have a named source who claims that Mauricio hit on a woman at a bar and admitted to her that he’s not faithful to his wife. This “alleged” incident happened four years ago, making me wonder why the source is coming out with the news now. Maybe she just remembered it and it took her a while to realize the guy was semi-famous:

In a show known for its many relationship roller coasters, Kyle Richards and Mauricio Umansky appear to enjoy a marriage made in reality heaven — but, according to a bombshell report in the new Star magazine — the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills hunky hubby is actually one of the biggest flirts in Hollywood!

Just weeks after Kyle and Mauricio appeared on Good Morning America dishing details on how they stay so happy together after seventeen years of marriage, an eyewitness tells Star that the real estate mogul hit on her friend in a hotel bar — and claims he admitted to cheating on Kyle!

In addition, a source tells Star that rumors of Mauricio’s flirtatious dalliances are ten a penny in Hollywood, but claims Kyle remains blissfully ignorant on the subject.

“There are tons of stories circulating about his extra-marital activities – it is common knowledge in their social circles,” the source tells Star.

“The only person who doesn’t know is Kyle, she is so proud of her sexy husband, but if she ever found out about his flings, it would destroy her.”

According to eyewitness Tess Broussard of Comedy Central’s Kroll Show, Umansky made no effort to conceal his flirtatious intentions with her friend, a busty escort named Cristina Schultz, when he set eyes on her at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel bar a few years back.

Still wearing his wedding ring, “Mauricio just beelined for us,” Broussard tells Star, claiming he even told green eyed brunette Schultz that she looked like his wife!

Broussard tells Star that after asking for her friend’s phone number and offering his in exchange, the 42-year-old left his black AmEx card on the table and told the women, “I’m married, but I stray once in a while.”

The alleged encounter occurred four years ago, but a source tells Star that Mauricio’s flirtatious behavior has only intensified with time and claims that mother-of-three Richards, 44, refuses to see the signs.

“Kyle won’t hear a word against him so people just talk about it behind her back,” the source says.

However, a rep for Umansky denies any wrongdoing on his client’s behalf, telling Star that Mauricio is “networking and being friendly and pleasant, and this is construed as flirting. He is a good looking guy.”

[From Radar]

That last quote, from Mauricio’s rep, kind of explains it all. That’s his go-to excuse, “he’s good looking,” “women throw themselves at him, but he’s just being friendly,” etc. This reminds me that after the first season of RHOBH, Mauricio claimed that women were texting him nude photos because of his sudden fame. This begs the question: how did they get his number in the first place?! It looks like Camille’s drunk “psychic” friend was right: Kyle’s husband was/is cheating on her. You don’t have to be psychic to predict that one.

We’ve already gone over this, but I just wanted to point out some of the more hilarious quotes from the US Weekly cover story on Lindsey Vonn and Tiger Woods’ new romance: “In Love With A Sex Addict.” You know that their PR people cosigned all this at least, although let’s face it they probably planted this entire story. This is the official version of what happened, not the one that acknowledges that Tiger was trying to get back with his ex wife to improve his image and that he scrapped those plans and went with Plan B, Lindsey. The story was from Lindsey’s point of view, to explain what the hell she was thinking, and there were some laughable moments. I’ll just do the highlights since you know the story already. It’s also worth noting that Lindsey/this story admits that she was dating Kris Humphries at the same time as Tiger Woods, which Star Magazine also reported.

How they met
The athletes first met at his April 2012 Tiger Jam charity fundraiser in Las Vegas, and the attraction was immediate. Though Vonn was in the midst of a messy protracted divorce from her former coach Thomas Vonn – the couple of five years split in November 2011 – she gave Woods her digits. “They started texting right after that,” says a confidant of Vonn. The two athletic prodigies have traveled similar life paths: Both started their sports as toddlers, were pushed to excel by demanding fathers and have lived out their adult lives in bubbles created by their global success. “Tiger and Lindsey had a lot in common,” observes the source. “They immediately clicked.”

Still, at that point Woods wasn’t Vonn’s only suitor. Bachelor No. 2 was none other than Kim Kardashian ex Kris Humphries. “They’re both from Minnesota, so they had a lot to talk about,” says a confidant of Vonn, who says the skier never got physical with the 28 year-old Brooklyn Nets player.

Tiger is the only man who can understand her
By October, however, Vonn had given Humphries the brush-off for the only man who could understand her. “No one else gets what athletes at that level go through,” says a source close to Vonn, who was putting in seven-hour gym workouts six times a week in Austria. “They train all the time!…”

She is really private
Yet the couple felt a need to hide from the public, even after Vonn’s divorce was finalized in January and she began to talk more openly with friends about Woods. “Lindsey has been more private about Tiger than anything in her life,” says the Vonn confidant. Her best friend since childhood remains diplomatic: “I trust she’s going into this relationship with eyes open,” marketing strategist Hilary Lund tells Us. “If anything were to go wrong, we are there for her to fall back on….”

On if this ruins her image
“A happy athlete is going to perform well for sponsors,” says the source. “And she’ll make them a shit-ton of money…”

“The year sucked in terms of physical things [Lindsey was injured while racing], but for the first time, she feels like she can do anything she wants,” says the pal. “This is the first time she can be a woman.”

[From US Weekly, print edition, April 8, 2013]

Well I guess now we understand this relationship a bit better. It’s more than just PR, it’s Tiger finding another top athlete who is delusional and damaged enough to get involved in a relationship with him, announce and try to justify it to the press (including releasing staged photos) and then say she’s been more private about him than “anything in her life.” This is not what privacy looks like by any stretch, but it sure is fun to watch. As I’ve asked before, is she going to be “private” when this relationship inevitably implodes? I’m hoping her definition of privacy won’t change, and she’ll pull a Kat Von D. “He’s a cheater, how could I have known?!”

Before Tiger Woods started PR-dating Lindsey Vonn she was involved with another athlete that you’ve heard plenty of things about. You’ll never guess who. Well you probably know already since this news came out yesterday, but when you heard it you were surprised, weren’t you? Lindsey was dating Kris Humphries. Because apparently she can’t Google or get online at all, doesn’t watch tv, and has no idea what’s going on in pop culture.

Tiger Woods and Lindsey Vonn and Kim Kardashian’s estranged husband Kris Humphries are certainly the proof of that!

While Tiger, 37, and Lindsey recently went public with their new romance, what they didn’t tell anyone is that Lindsey chose Tiger over Humphries.

That’s the latest revelation in the headline-making relationship of the sex-addict golfer and top skier, with the new issue of Us Weekly revealing that Humphries was very much in the picture when Tiger came along.

“Woods wasn’t Vonn’s only suitor,” the mag says. “Bachelor No. 2 was none other than Kim Kardashian ex Kris Humphries.”

As the mag points out, Vonn and Humphries are both from Minnesota and have a lot in common. But ultimately, Vonn chose Tiger, who has reclaimed his position as the No. 1 golfer in the world.

Olympic-skier Vonn, 28, was warned about the perils of getting involved with the golfer, but her love of danger and animal attraction to Tiger had drawn them to be friends over recent months, with the most controversial couple in sports officially announcing they are dating on March 18.

Woods now seems to be back on his game both on the course and in his personal life when after a two year slump he celebrated a victory at the Arnold Palmer Invitational in Orlando, Florida this past Monday to reclaim his title as the world number one golfer.

Despite Tiger and Lindsey’s obvious happiness as they beam lovingly together from a series of engagement-style photos, Vonn’s fans are concerned that their idol is going to get hurt just like ex-wife Elin Nordegren did.

“He is probably cheating on you right now,” one angry Facebook follower messaged the blonde Minnesota native, according to Us Weekly.

[From Radar Online]

I’m probably wrong, she could know all about these guys and get off on dating them, which must be a kind of sickness. Don’t you know someone like that, a woman whose type is “douche”? (“He’s not like that, you have the wrong idea about him!”) Well is it a step up, to go from Kris Humphries to Tiger Woods? It is, monetarily and fame-wise. STD wise it’s a danker cesspool, but otherwise she traded up. Tiger Woods is a catch – when you compare his stats to Kris Humphries, and you know Lindsey did the easy math. A billion > millions.

I’m not sure this is true, though, doesn’t Kris Humphries have a “type”? He likes the Kim Kardashian type, that crazy hotel employee girl he dated, the one who kept feeding stories to TMZ and tried to claim she was pregnant with Kris’ baby at one point, looked just like Kim. But like Tiger, Kris’ type is probably over 18, easy access and with a pulse, although the over 18 part is up to question with Tiger.

Gossip Cop got a denial to this story from an unnamed source, and they also have more details from Star’s report, including the fact that Lindsey was hooking up with Kris at the same time she was “dating” Tiger. Star’s source claimed Lindsey has been “hooking up with Kris for the last eight months, even after Tiger was in the picture.” Well Tiger was allegedly trying to reconcile with his ex-wife that whole time, and only went public with this new romance when talks failed with Elin. So it’s not like he was “exclusive” to Lindsey either. Snort.

Caroline Manzo is on Real Housewives of New Jersey, and it’s been a while since I watched just a handful of episodes, but I remember her as the “normal” one. She’s bold and brassy and she has a tight relationship with her husband and adult kids. She seemed sane compared to the other ones, especially Danielle Staub and Teresa Giudice. Staub has since been booted off and I guess Manzo started fighting with Giudice the last season, who is so awful and combative that you can’t blame her.

This story isn’t about Manzo so much as a somewhat controversial statement she made in an interview with In Touch. She’s been with her husband for 28 years, and from what I remember they come across as solid. She says that her husband hasn’t cheated, but that if he did, like hypothetically, she wouldn’t ditch him because of it. Manzo also claims that “No one on this planet could say with 100 percent certainty that their partner never cheated.” Damn! Caroline has a new book out, called Let Me Tell You Something, which is out next week.

In a revealing interview with In Touch, The Real Housewives of New Jersey star opens up about her views on marriage — and says that when it comes to her 28-year-marriage to husband Albert, she would never throw the towel in over one mistake.

“If Al cheated on me 25 years ago, one night, that was then and this is now,” she tells In Touch of a topic she writes about with brutal honesty in her new book, Let Me Tell You Something. “No one on this planet could say with 100 percent certainty that their partner never cheated. I have no indication that he has, but if it didn’t happen yesterday, last week, a month ago, I’m not worried about it.”

Caroline admits that the earlier years of her marriage were a struggle — having three children in three years and almost no money. “We could hardly afford diapers,” she says. “Those were tough times.” Caroline’s happy to have powered through those years but says that if Al did stray, she would understand and forgive.

“If your husband is a good guy and a provider and you have a tremendous connection, you can’t throw your marriage away over a one-night stand,” Caroline tells In Touch. “My husband is my best friend. Marriage is worth the fight. I would go to hell and back for him and he would do the same.”

That’s one way to look at it, and I like how she describes her marriage as a partnership. You get the impression that Manzo’s husband cheated on her at some point, they dealt with it, and she feels that it made them stronger. I think that once the trust is broken in a relationship it’s really difficult to earn it back. I don’t think it’s impossible, but it must be incredibly tough. Wouldn’t you always be wondering what your partner is up to after that, or would you just have to go on faith and trust them, even after they revealed to you that they can’t be trusted?

Plus, I don’t agree that no one knows with “100 percent certainty that their partner never cheated.” I think that’s what some people who’ve gone through it tell themselves “well, no one else is being faithful, either,” but that’s not true. I know couples that have been together longer than these two who haven’t cheated – that I know of. Maybe she has a point, you never know what goes on in someone else’s relationship, or sometimes even your own.

I was over at Reality Tea and I saw this interesting story about how Brandi Glanville recently tweeted that she was in talks to make her new book, Drinking & Tweeting, into a movie. Of course these would be preliminary talks, and if this deal moves forward it may be several months before it comes to the contract stage, but it sounds like a real possibility. Brandi’s book is doing incredibly well, and is currently number 1 on the eBook nonfiction NY Times bestseller list. This is something I was actually thinking about recently, because this is one of the best most detailed gossip stories to come around in ages. You guys know what happened, and imagine pitching this as a movie plot, it’s genius and it really happened. This is what Brandi tweeted:

Omg just had a talk about turning my book in2 a movie! Maybe we should pitch it to Lifetime An unromantic comedy! #pinchme

— Brandi Glanville (@BrandiGlanville) February 26, 2013

Of course we are starting to get Brandi and LeAnn burnout, we’re gossip junkies, but imagine the general population of casual and light gossip-consumers. This would be so interesting to them and they don’t know the whole story. (I mean LeAnn bought the same car, the same shoes on multiple occasions, the same bikini at least twice, jewelry, etc. and she mirrors Brandi’s every move. How many people outside of our gossip bubble know that?)

For the casual gossip consumers reading this, Brandi is referencing the Lifetime movie, Northern Lights, where her then-husband met his mistress, LeAnn Rimes. Although I haven’t read Brandi’s book yet, I heard that she details how her cheating husband, Eddie Cibrian, kept sleeping with her following his affair and begged her to take him back. LeAnn stalked Eddie, Brandi kicked him out, he went running into LeAnn’s copycat twig arms, and the rest is history. I’m telling you, this is a compelling story, all real and documented in the press and on Twitter. I was explaining it to someone recently and I could barely do it justice. You couldn’t make up this drama and now Brandi is cashing in. Yes she’s been pretty tasteless lately (did you see her Oscar dress?!), but that’s who she is and she’s making lemonade. She played nice for a long time too.

So who should play LeAnn in the movie? I’m thinking another singer, like Kellie Pickler. Sure Kellie is super nice, doesn’t look like LeAnn and has no acting skills that we know of, but this is probably going to end up on Lifetime anyway.

Also, why hasn’t LeAnn tried to sue Brandi over this book yet? Do you think that’s coming soon?

At this point I just admire the hell out of In Touch. They’ve gone after Kris Jenner, using their sources close to her deceased ex husband, on the covers of the last three issues and the one coming this week is yet another doozy. These anti Kris Jenner covers must sell well for them.

About a year ago, In Touch spoke to Jenner’s younger lover, a guy named Todd Waterman, whom she was banging and bankrolling while she was married to Robert Kardashian. (Todd told In Touch that Kris ruined her daughtesr with her superficial values and quest for fame.) It turns out that Kris was also banging Todd while she was in the early stages of her relationship with her now-husband, Kris Jenner. In Touch allegedly learned this gem back when they got their exclusive interview with Todd. They held onto it for a year for some reason, maybe a statute of limitations or just the need to have something to pull out during a slow gossip week. I love that they did this – the title of their latest issue is like a Tyler Perry movie title, “Married to a Madwoman”. (Credit: Kaiser) What’s more is that Kris allegedly paid Todd off for his silence by giving him $15,000 to $20,000 for one guest appearance on “Keeping up with the Kardashians,” about 10 times more than the typical amount the show pays for guest spots.

In Touch can exclusively reveal that Kris Jenner cheated on her current husband, Bruce Jenner, with former soccer player Todd Waterman — the same man she was accused of seeing behind the back of her ex-husband, Robert Kardashian.

An insider confides in the new issue of In Touch, on newsstands now, that Kris even went so far as to pay off Todd in order to prohibit him from ever speaking about her or the Kardashians again, so that Bruce — and the world — would never find out about it.

“Last year, Kris persuaded Todd to appear on Keeping Up With the Kardashians. It was her way of paying him off and making sure he stayed silent about their torrid past,” an insider close to the Kardashian family tells In Touch.

Although Kris has denied that she ever cheated on Bruce or paid off Todd, Todd has confirmed to In Touch that he continued to hook up with Kris even after Bruce, 63, moved into Kris’ Beverly Hills home. In January 2012 — six months before he would be paid off by Kris and appear on her reality show — he told In Touch, “We were still sleeping together when she started dating Bruce.”
But while Todd held nothing back a year ago, now he is less forthcoming about their relationship. When contacted by In Touch in January, he confirmed a financial deal with Kris, saying, “I really wish I could talk to you, but I can’t because I’m under contract with the family to not talk about them.”

Normally, someone is paid about $1,500 to appear on the show, but Todd received a onetime payment of $15,000 to $20,000, believes the insider: “He appeared under the pretense that they were having closure on their relationship. Little did everyone — least of all Bruce — know that she was gagging him.”

Kris’ passionate affair with Todd supposedly ended when she met Bruce on a blind date in 1990. But that wasn’t the last time she and Todd saw each other. “He was always around, and Bruce was completely in the dark,” the insider reveals to In Touch, adding, “He was the Camilla in the Charles-Diana relationship.”

[From In Touch]

Of course I believe this, Kris was bragging about this affair to promote her book. BUT I don’t think this Todd dude told In Touch this a year ago. I think he sold this new bit of information recently as it’s too convenient for a “source” to tell this to In Touch while Todd says on the record that “I’m under contract with the family to not talk about them.” I also want to read all about how Kris “forced” Bruce to get plastic surgery. I’m not sure I buy that part of the story. Bruce allegedly enjoys cross dressing, I don’t know if he needed to be forced into anything that made his features more feminine. Maybe that’s why he’ll never divorce Kris, he knows she’ll keep his secrets.

The last we heard about Tiger Woods, he was begging his ex-wife, Elin, for another chance at marriage and promising her an even more hefty chunk of his fortune if he ever cheated on her again. Well either that story was fake or Elin was wise enough to realize that she’s already rich, bitch, and that her life is way better single, because Tiger has moved on. He’s now said to be dating divorced Olympic skier, Lindsey Vonn, 28. Star has a somewhat priceless line about this relationship in their print edition: “It took a while for Lindsey to trust him because of his past.” Yeah.

Tiger Woods has been quietly seeing Olympic skier Lindsey Vonn, according to the new issue of Star.

“He wants to marry again,” an inside tells Star, “and thinks Lindsey could be the woman.”

The 37-year-old golf icon and Vonn began seeing one another in November. He’s been hot on Vonn’s trail as of late, watching her ski in the World Cup in Austria, then taking her on an Antiguan vacation, according to the magazine.

Lindsey finalized her divorce to skier Thomas Vonn this month after splitting in November 2011. The 28-year-old, who bears a slight resemblance to Tiger’s ex Elin Nordegren, has shown off her sexiness in Sports Illustrated‘s Olympic Swimsuit Edition and Maxim‘s Hot 100 list.

[From Radar]

I don’t know much about Lindsey Vonn, but I do remember her from when she was doing promotional duties during the last Winter Olympics. She bugged me for some reason, I think it was because she looked a little “plastic” to me, but that’s just a superficial observation. (As are most of my observations.) I’ll say the same thing as when we learned that Jesse James has a new fiance: how do women fall for these creeps?

Both of these men have incredibly well documented histories of cheating and hiring hookers, a history that can be easily accessed from a smart phone at any point, maybe from the bathroom on a date. You just pop off to fix your lipstick, google them and then go back to the table with some excuse about a friend needing your help right away, it’s urgent. But this also assumes that these women pay absolutely no attention to the news for months at a time. Tiger was on the front page forever. How does one ever fall for an a-hole like this? There are women who just want to believe I guess. “I’ve changed, therapy helped me, I’m not the same person, my wife was such a bitch.” People can be so stupid in relationships.

Lindsey’s publicist has issued a non-statement in which there is no denial that she’s hitting it with Tiger. “Lindsey is currently in the midst of the World Cup season in Europe. Her focus is solely on competing and on defending her titles and thus she will not participate in any speculation surrounding her personal life at this time.”

Ooh I found photos of Lindsey at one of Tiger’s charity events last April. It’s on. Nice makeup. It’s like Duchess Kate except with liquid eyeliner.

Arnold Schwarzenegger has a new interview with German tabloid, Bild, to promote The Last Stand, a new action movie co-starring Johnny Knoxville. The film was out last week in the US and bombed at the box office, but there’s still the European market and Ahnold is doing his promotional duties. The 65 year-old told Bild that he spent Christmas with his estranged wife, Maria Shriver and their kids, that he still loves Maria and he hopes to reconcile with her. Here’s a translation from Huffpo, and the original German source is here:

Arnold Schwarzenegger is quoted in an interview in Germany’s top-selling newspaper saying he’s still in love with his estranged wife, Maria Shriver.

Schwarzenegger is quoted in Tuesday’s Bild newspaper as saying that despite their separation he spent Christmas with Shriver and their children.

Schwarzenegger is cited as saying “we’re not fighting any war: I still hope for reconciliation; I still love Maria.”

Shriver filed for divorce last year after 25-years of marriage following Schwarzenegger’s admission he fathered a child with the family’s housekeeper.

He has also admitted to other affairs.

[From The Huffington Post]

We’ve heard rumors that Arnold was holding out hope for a reunion, and we’ve heard that Maria might be open to it. (We’ve also heard that Arnold told a neighbor that if it didn’t work out with Maria he was planning on “getting a 20-year-old honey.”) A reunion wouldn’t sound as outrageous if Arnold was sorry for what he did and if he were willing to go to counseling. The last we reported on Arnold, when he was promoting his tell-all book back in October, he didn’t sound contrite at all. He paid lip service to “protecting his family” but he still publicly revealed how much his infidelity, and the news of his love child, devastated Maria. He didn’t sound sorry at all and he opened old wounds just to promote himself and his memoir. Of course Arnold wants Maria back, she put up with his crap for decades and stood up for him. He expects the status quo and a lot of ego stroking, at home and wherever he can get it on the side, preferably conveniently. I just hope Maria stays strong and that she lets their divorce go through. She filed last summer.

In the Peter Facinelli and Jennie Garth divorce I used to be firmly team Jennie. We heard that Peter cheated on Jennie, that she was devastated, and that she slowly put the pieces back together by going on a heartbreak diet and starting to date. Then Jennie seemed to call the paps and alert the media whenever she went out with a new guy, simultaneously telling various outlets that she wouldn’t rather lick her shoe or the floor than go on a date. It just seemed disingenuous, but I get that a lot of you still have affection for her and don’t blame her for making it known that she’s going out with other guys.

Well her ex is pissed that she’s talking about all this. I think she’s actually being very classy about it. She’s focusing on her reaction to the divorce, she’s not blaming Peter, and she never ever said that he cheated on her. She could have trashed the hell out of him but she didn’t. Apparently Peter is pissed off that she’s giving interviews at all. What a baby. Now I’m back to being team Jennie.

It was way back in March that jennie Garth, 40, and Peter Facinelli, 39, announced their decision to divorce, but tensions have only heated up since then. Pals say Jennie resents the Twilight Saga star for abandoning her – after 11 years of marriage and three young girls. Peter quickly began seeing his Loosies costar, Jaimie Alexander, 28, which crushed Jennie. “It’s like a slap in the face,” a friend tells Star. It’s hard for her to be civil with him, because she’s so angry.” But Peter’s not happy either, because he reportedly thinks his ex has been a publicity hound. “He hates that he looks like the bad guy,” our source says. “Peter has demanded that Jennie stop giving interviews, which has only infuriated her more.”

[From Star Magazine, print edition, November 26, 2012]

Peter should thank his lucky stars that Jennie isn’t dishing the dirt about what really went on in their marriage. She should write a book about it and air his dirty laundry. I honestly think she should.

Here’s another piece of news that makes me believe this story entirely. Peter just did a photo op with his new girlfriend, (Celebuzz has the photos here) a 28 year-old actress named Jaimie Alexander, with whom he starred in a film that came out earlier this year called Loosies. We heard that Peter’s jumpoff was a 20-something Canadian and Jaimie is American, so it’s possible they just got together recently but let’s see, they were probably doing press together earlier this year, right before he split with Jennie. There was likely some overlap going on. I guess Peter figures that if Jennie can document her dates, so can he.
