LeAnn Rimes continues to be completely inappropriate with Eddie’s kids

As many of you mentioned in yesterday’s LeAnn Rimes thread, there was some recent drama between LeAnn and Eddie Cibrian’s ex-wife Brandi Glanville. Generally speaking, I do think Brandi should lighten up on LeAnn and Eddie, and not try so actively to destroy them and interject herself. However, I do still see Brandi’s point about a lot of things – those are her children that LeAnn is trying to take as her own, and also to be fair to Brandi, LeAnn is a delusional fruitcake, and I wouldn’t want her around my kids (if I had kids – I wouldn’t want LeAnn around my dog, let me put it that way).

So, the basic story is this: On Saturday, LeAnn rushed 7-year-old Mason to the emergency room over a “chin-splitting incident”. It sounds like the kid needed a few stitches, but it was nothing life-threatening. Still, you’d think LeAnn would call Mason’s mother, right? Nope. Instead, LeAnn alerted her Twitter followers that she was at the ER, but didn’t call or text Brandi whatsoever. JESUS.

Everyone loves a catfight. But clearly no one more so than Eddie Cibrian’s former and current loves, Brandi Glanville and LeAnn Rimes, both of whom apparently refuse to play nice. The latest round of sniping comes after a weekend incident involving Cibrian and Glanville’s two sons.

We’ll let LeAnn explain:
“Flew home for 5 hrs to see Eddie & the lil one’s and ended up in the ER!” Rimes tweeted on Saturday. “Everybody’s fine, just a minor kiddo accident. Boys will be boys!”

And mothers will be mothers—which means they don’t want to be the last ones to hear about their kids’ forays into the emergency room, which is how Glanville says she came to find out about 7-year-old Mason’s injury.

“All I know is I didn’t get a phone call,” Glanville told E! News. “Poor choice. Bad parenting.”

As for how the chin-splitting injury occurred, the concerned mom said, “I don’t know how exactly it happened, but Mason told me LeAnn had oil on her hardwood floors and he fell. Eddie didn’t bother to call me and I showed up to Mason’s soccer game that day only to get a text from Eddie afterwards saying Mason wouldn’t be playing since he was in the ER all morning.”

The blame for that, according to Glanville, is Rimes.

“I’m disappointed in their decision. I’m the mother of these two boys and if we’re going to coparent, we have to do that together. It’s not call me after.”

And while Glanville previously told E! News she was becoming increasingly concerned about her children’s safety at Casa Rimes, she admits that may have been a bit of an overblown reaction.

“[The boys] are not in danger,” she said. “The only thing that’s in danger is our coparenting relationship if [LeAnn] keeps involving herself and doesn’t allow [Eddie] to call me.”

Incidentally, this isn’t the first time one of the children has contracted a boo-boo under LeAnn’s care: youngest son, 3-year-old Jake, also sustained an injury while playing on the singer’s tour bus.

“The last time they had the boys, Jake ended up getting seven stitches,” she said. “I had to call in a plastic surgeon to stitch up Jake’s forehead.”

We’re guessing the phrase “boys will be boys” was no more consoling the first time around, either. For her part, Rimes’ rep told E! News that the most recent accident was nothing more than “a minor slip” and that “Eddie and LeAnn were with him the whole time, and he is all smiles now.”

Which is more or less what she tweeted immediately after the incident.

“Nothing that a little skin glue and a few kisses won’t fix! He’s all good!” she wrote, later adding, just for good measure, “Everyone is great now, thx!”

Everyone except Glanville, whom Rimes perhaps suspected would not be pleased about the seemingly harmless accident. She spent the next two days both defending herself against followers who seemed to take issue with her newfound surrogate parenting and her relationship with Brandi.

“To be really honest, it’s not her place to tell me how to be,” Rimes wrote. “I respect her as their mom, but she has to understand they’re in my life. I can talk about my life just like she can take about her’s. Just so you know, she has never spoken to me. This IS my life too and they are in it 50% of the time…I’ve stepped into a very tough, but rewarding role…I treat those boys like they are my own because that’s how I love.”

And, from the sounds of it, she plans to go on doing more of the same for awhile to come.

“Not an easy situation,” she went on, “but I know there are many women out there who are experiencing some if the same challenges as me. I have hope for a peaceful future.”

[From E! News]

Okay, don’t you really feel badly for Brandi now? She has to deal with LeAnn’s delusions full time now – and LeAnn just needs to stop. It’s one thing to be in the step-mother role and have the kids get hurt – that sucks, but kids are kids and they will get hurt. But when you’re in the emergency room, for Christ’s sake, CALL THEIR MOTHER. This is ridiculous. No more of this “It’s not her place to tell me how to be. I respect her as their mom, but she has to understand they’re in my life.” NO, LEANN, you have to understand that Brandi is their mother and that it’s not about YOU and your hyper-narcissism.

    Thank you, Kaiser! We see LR for the nut job she is….Eddie must be as wacko as her.

  2. brin says:

    Also…..Brandi is a WOMAN and Leann is a delusional child.

  3. LOVE ANGELINA says:

    LeAnn really should have called their mother and then she tweeted one of her children was hurt on Twitter, not cool. Unacceptable. Goodness where the hell is Eddie? He should have known the kids mother needed to be informed. God, LeAnn is totally nuts. Tweeting about an accident before even telling the mother. Awful.

  4. teri says:

    Wow just wow LeAnn.
    If and when you have a child you’ll understand what being a mother is all about. You just won’t understand until you have one of your own. Don’t blame their mother at all for being pissy about not getting a call either time!!
    You want to be the first one called in any emergency, not at all. You had time to text but not bother to call the mother? Eddie grow a pair and put LeAnn in her place.

  5. cantbelievethis says:

    That is just messed up. In most cases where parents have joint legal custody all medical decisions are supposed to be made by both parents. not Dad’s crazy girlfriend.

    Joint custody is hard enough on young kids, LR isn’t doing anything to help that situation. If she’ll talk like that on Twitter I imagine she says worse in person.

    • deehunny says:

      yes, but you and I both know that exes rarely follow what they are supposed to do by court order.

      What cracks me up is that she always points out that they are in HER life. Um, actually, you are 50% in THEIR life. I know it’s just semantics but jeez lady.

  6. A.J. says:

    Failing to notify their Biological mother that they were in the ER, yet announcing it to the world at large first is simply idiotic.

    I have zero respect for this woman.

    Mother: Why didn’t she call to let me know?

    Rimes: Their in my life. Me me me.

    Utterly ignored the lack of a courtesy phone call.

  7. teri says:

    LeAnn is young and stupid! I think she needs to deal with a mothers furry to understand what repsect and consideration means.

  8. Rita says:

    Yes, the sun came up this morning and LeAnn is a fruit-loop but what I want to know is Brandi’s divorce final? A couple weeks ago Brandi tweeted she was “totally and completely single” and yet we’ve heard nothing official. Could it be the settlement is completely confidential and burried in some judical archive? There has been absolutely nothing private about Eddie’s divorce filings so why is this being kept quiet?

    Can it be LeAnn wants to spring her engagement on the world while she promotes her album in a few weeks or is it something else?

    Is it that there are two things we will never know about this mess:

    1. How much did LeAnn pay Deane for his divorce?
    2. How much did LeAnn pay Brandi for her divorce?

  9. Maria says:

    ok so LR is delusional, but the fact is that EDDIE should have called Brandi. He’s the father. Don’t just blame the woman. No matter how psycho she seems to be.

  10. Praise St. Angie! says:

    “To be really honest, it’s not her place to tell me how to be”

    um, actually, LeMAN, when it comes to HER kids, it IS her place to “tell you how to be”.

    LeMAN may be a delusional, catty bitch, taunting Glanville the way she does, but Cibrian needs to grow a set and tell his girlfriend that their MOTHER sets the rules, and LeMAN needs to tone it down.

    “This IS my life too and they are in it 50% of the time”

    yeah, it’s your life, but when the kids are with you, it about THEM, not you, and what’s best for THEM, not you. She absolutely does shit like this purposely to aggravate Glanville.

  11. Celebitchy says:

    My kid got a nosebleed at school and I asked them could they please notify me next time. This is ridiculous that she didn’t call their MOTHER for a major injury. She is not their mother and much as she tries to front like she is.

  12. jen says:

    How is Eddie NOT on suicide watch? Can you imagine having to live with LoonieAnn??!!

  13. serena says:

    My boyfriend has a small boy with his ex and I cannot for a second imagine us not calling his mother STRAIGHT AWAY if anything happened to him!
    Of course I am not fruit loop LeAnn and luckily they are on good terms

  14. guesty says:

    omg. the pic of brandi vs. the pic of leann…wth is wrong with ec?

    leann’s bank account must be quite the aphrodisiac.

    as for the kids…team brandi.

  15. whatever says:

    Wait a minute.

    Brandi and Eddie are co-parenting these kids…why didn’t Eddie call Brandi??

    It isn’t LeAnn’s responsibility to keep communication open, between the co-parents…

    Everyone is getting on LeAnn’s case…why didn’t Eddie pick up the phone to call her, if HE was there??

  16. dread pirate cuervo says:

    It’s not LeAnn’s job to call Brandi if the kids get hurt. It’s Eddie’s job. He’s the father. He is the one in the wrong here, not LeAnn.

    That said, LeAnn needs to stop twittering about the kids & Brandi needs realize that LeAnn has no obligation to her whatsoever.

  17. Amy says:

    Eddie is their dad and should be the one to call their mom, not the girlfriend he cheated with. I find it hard to believe Leann “doesn’t allow” Eddie to call her. How could she possibly stop him from calling if he really wanted/needed to??!?!? Regardless of who is at fault the main concern should be the childrens’ safety!

  18. Rita says:

    A couple weeks ago the 3 year old required 7 stiches because of an injury sustained on LeAnn’s tour bus. This kid has looking after him a nanny, a semi-conscious father, and a step-mistress and still Brandi was not notified of this injury either.

    I don’t blame Eddie or LeAnn for these mishaps but consequetive injuries should alert the care takers to take more care. I do not blame LeAnn for not contacting Brandi, that is the responsibility for the king of douchery.

  19. OhCamille! says:

    Why didn’t their father call their mother? Was he not there? Why is this guy getting a pass on all this f@*%ery?

  20. Tess says:

    As much as I find LeAnn a poor excuse for a woman, Eddie doesn’t get near as much flack as he should be getting. I will never be able to look at his face without thinking how much of a skeevy, ball-less loser he is. I will gladly avoid the episodes of any show he guest stars in.

  21. elusive says:

    I dont really see why it’s LeAnn’s responsibility to call the boys mother when the father was there with the children! Yes courtsey would dictate a phone call, but there has never been any courtsey between any of these people. Yes Leann over shares on twitter, but she was a little girl who became famous and had probably very few friends…she’s like country britney without the mental illness. She doesnt know how to be normal.

    Im getting tired of everything being the other womans fault. Ive never cheated, nor has my husband – but if either of us did it wouldnt be the outsiders fault.

    Leann owes Brandi NOTHING! Eddie does.

    I feel badly that she wasnt notified, but the child wasnt dying. At least they were responsible enough to take him to get medical attention.

    Leann wants attention. Brandi wants attention. Theyre both getting what they want.

  22. Eileen says:

    She shouldn’t be treating them like they are her own-they AREN’T. I would be furious with this chick-we’d be coming to blows…seriously. Anyone who has had to go through the process of birth and/or adoption has the MINE stamp on their kids foreheads-NO ONE especially a famewhoring crazy husband f’ing beyatch can mess with that. She can put a claim on them if she can jump into a time machine and stay up all night trying to soothe a screaming baby, be there for the first coo, roll over and steps. Otherwise STFU on saying she treats them like they are her own. She doesn’t even know what that means!

  23. krissy_kitty says:

    I think what has everyone upset is LeAnn found time to Tweet that one of Brandi’s kids had an accident, and went to the ER but she didn’t find it necessary to call the child’s mother. Priorities. Once again LeAnn made the situation about HER… Totally inappropriate on BOTH Eddie’s and LeAnn’s part.

  24. Eileen says:

    I agree Krissy Kitty: I can’t imagine going about my day and looking on Twitter to find out my kid’s babysitter or caregiver Tweeted she’s at the ER with one of my kids. Not the way to find out about your own kid. He needs to flush her phone down the toilet and rid her of her tweeting addiction because its going to get him into BIG trouble.

  25. supersleuth says:

    Narcissism at its finest.

    First she pretends Brandi doesn’t exist when she steals her husband, now she’s trying the same crap with the kids.

    Eddie needs to grow a pair, but he doesn’t want to bite the hand that feeds him.

  26. maggiegrace says:

    Leanne’s a dick and Eddie is dick-less.

  27. TQB says:

    I’m jumping on the Eddie Flack Wagon. LeAnn is an immature twit, and if that is obvious to us, it’s obvious to him. He is the co-parent. In a perfect world (which would be one without LeAnn in it) yes, i think we’d all say the dad’s girlfriend should call the mother. But based on my above logic (ie LeAnn exists) it’s not a perfect world, and the ultimate parental responsibility falls to the kid’s father. CALL YOUR BABYMAMA, YOU SMUG PIMP BASTARD.

    I applaud Brandi, her statement is calm and reasonable. I would have dragged Eddie in front of the custody judge over this.

    BTW, i had a follow-on thought to yesterday’s bikini cover… why is it impressive for a 28 year old to be in great shape? She has no kids and all the time in the world to work out. I’m 35, look as good as she does, but same deal, I’ve never given birth and have no social life, so I work out. So you managed to go to the gym 6 days a week, who f’ing cares. I hate to say it but stupid Gosslin in a bikini is at least a “whoa” kind of story. I mean she did bear 6 kids. At the same time. Eww.

  28. Lita says:

    While Eddie is the father I suspect that blended fam scenarios are such that imo, yes, Leanne has responsibility for notifying too. Clearly she had her phone handy! But the ex stating the ‘leanne doesn’t let him call’ is nonsense.

    Sort of feel awkward saying this but will anyhow because it left a bad taste in my mouth – @Praise St Angie! – I have always enjoyed, and pretty much always agreed, with your comments. Have to say your “LeMAN” call just sounded (sorry) really Michael Lohan “SaMANtha”ish. Or those anon nuts that go on about MANiston. With respect, I think this is beneath you. Hmm, and I don’t think there’s an emoticon for “I mean this in the nicest possible way while wanting to let you know how I feel although probably you couldn’t care less about that and I think you are generally great.”. Clearly we need more emoticons.

  29. Whatever says:

    I actually don’t find it hard to believe that Leann doesn’t let him call Brandi. She seems exactly like the type of insecure little whiny bitch who would get extremely jealous of Eddie and Brandi having conversations about their kids. She probably guilts him or acts like a bitch and he caves. Yeah, I’ve seen this play out a few times IRL and I can imagine it happening here. She seems like the type.

    Of course, at the end of the day, it is Eddie’s responsibility to call their mother about any injury. Leaving her sitting at his soccer game and wondering where they are is absolutely unacceptable, childish and selfish. He needs to nut up and act like a grown man and responsible parent. And Leann needs to shut her trap and twitter about something else.

  30. BethL says:

    I have to agree with those saying that Eddie is responsible. He’s the father and should be communicating with the mother about problems. He was right there. It wasn’t as if LeAnn was alone with the boys and didn’t call. It was tacky of her to go on Twitter but I think the parents are the ones who should be doing most of the communicating. Although highly unlikely, maybe she didn’t know Eddie didn’t call Brandi.

  31. Heaven-bound says:

    @ guesty

    I find Brandi quite unattractive, she looks like cat woman with all that surgery. And lean is pretty homely herself.

  32. cantbelievethis says:

    Eddie isn’t getting as much flack b/c he didn’t post on Twitter. Of course he should’ve been the one to call the boy’s mother, but LR should’ve waited to mention it until after Mom was notified.

    She’s getting flack b/c the only reason she ‘tweeted’ about it was to irritate the mom and to make herself look important.

  33. mln says:

    This is the kind of thing Brandi could bring to court and could definitely affect custody. And yes If Leann didn’t call it was doubly Eddie’s responsiblity to call however since Leann found the time to tweet about it she crossed a line from inconsiderate to downright deluded.

  34. julie says:

    There should be a law against homewrecking skank stepmoms from pretending “they treat the kids like their own”. They are not YOUR OWN! They have a MOTHER. And the father who does not MAKE THIS CLEAR is a loser and BAD FATHER and should lose some of his custody time for not notifying her when her child goes to the emergency room. Miss Skankmom has NO PARENTAL RIGHTS in this situation and she should STFU about someone elses children!!

  35. spanks says:

    I would think Brandi could take some sort of legal action about this. She should be notified in any emergency involving her children. I would think at the very least she should have the right to NOT have HER kids twitted about by this delusional nutjob. She should be able to put some sort of gag-order on that or something. I know I wouldnt want anyone tweeting about my kids and having everything they do made public, especially coming from the homewrecker split up their family.

    and I totally believe LR wont let Eddie talk to his wife regarding their kids. She probably has a fit just from him having to pick them up for their visits. I couldnt even imagine disrespecting my bf’s kids mother like this.

    September 16th, 2010 at 10:25 am

    ITA.If that were me and I found out in that way my ex’s girlfriend better watch out because there will be a problem. I should be the first person called after my child’s Dr. No excuses. Brandi can have Eddie by the you know what if she were to bring this to the judge’s attn. Very poor parenting on Eddies part.

    @cantbelievethis:
    September 16th, 2010 at 10:51 am
    AMEN!

  37. Embee says:

    As a new mom this makes me break a cold sweat.

    The father has a non-delegable duty to include the mother in any healthcare decision/treatment. Yes, the little one survived a split chin but he deserved to have his mom help him cope (even if it was over the telephone).

    I think it is totally appropriate for Brandi to get a restraining order preventing Leann from discussing the children on Twitter. Those tweets are a security risk to minors for whom she has no legal responsibility.

    A real mother (biological, step or adoptive) would know this intuitively and not discuss the kids.

  38. Obvious says:

    Take a chill pill guys. when my mom got re-married her husband treated me just like one of his kids. He considers me one of his own. This doesn’t change the fact i have a real dad whom i’m very close to. MY dad was thrilled to know that i wasn’t considered a step-child. I think LeeAnn’s point is she doesn’t feel they are step children and wants to take responsibility for them. if so she should have called Brandi

    However, the real responsibility for that falls to eddie. His kids, his co parenting, his call.

    I think LeeAnn should tone it down. but as someone else pointed out she doesn’t know how to be normal. girl has been in the spotlight since she was like 12-yes in the country world, which is still a lot to handle. She is like Britney, she never had people to tell her know, they let her do whatever she wanted. She’s relatively harmless in that respect.

    I think we need to place more blame on Eddie, and not continually crucify leeann just because she’s twitters dimensionally. eddie is just as much at fault if not more so for all of it.

  39. Eileen says:

    @Obvious: I too have an awesome stepmom who knew her place in my life. But until you have kids, its hard to understand what is the big deal here. Its not just her audacity in constantly calling them her boys: especially since they aren’t even married yet. What Leann is doing could put the kids in danger as well. There are some crazy-ass people out there. What if one of them saw where Leann and the kids where and showed up? What if she has some psycho fan who feels like her new man and his kids are taking her away from him/her and wants to do something about it? She has no clue because they aren’t her kids and she doesn’t think of those things like a REAL mom does. And a real mom should never have to find out her son is in the ER from Twitter-even if it was for a small injury…the fear that goes through the mind until she can find out is enough to make you sick when you’re a parent.
    My son had a 200 lb. mirror fall on his head and cut it open while I was in Chicago and had to call my husband while on the way to the hospital. He was totally beside himself that he wasn’t there for his son while he had staples put in. Its a difficult situation he is putting his ex-wife in.

  40. Lisa S. says:

    CALL THE MOTHER!!! If my ex’s GF or my ex did not call me about my son???I know there would be some serious shit going down.. Thank god I dont live like that!!

  41. TG says:

    I agree with everyone on here who says it is Eddy’s responsibility to call. And I don’t believe for one second that Leanne loves those kids. I think it is all part of her infatuation with Eddie and loving those kids is a way to show how wonderful and loving she is. It is all for show. And the more she takes control of his kids then she keeps him tied to her even closer. I am sure someone else can explain what I mean better than how I am saying it but it is so obvious to me. They both are huge scumbags and why doesn’t Brandi just save her complaints for the Court? Of course if she did, we wouldn’t get such entertaining news.

  42. Jezi says:

    It’s not LeAnn’s responsibility to call the mother. That is the father’s responsibility, however, I can also see how possessive and insecure LeAnn is and why she would not “allow” Eddie to call. I mean the woman flew in for 5 hours just to go to a soccer game so that Eddie wouldn’t be there alone with Brandi. Does that not sound friggin odd and insecure? LeAnn shouldn’t have been the one to call but she also shouldn’t have been the one to tweet about the ER visit.

  43. AB says:

    OK, here’s a nice little TEAM WEANN!!! rant from one of her biggest sycophants. It’s embarrassing because these people are all “in the industry” yet acting like 12 year old girls.

    http://twitter.com/darrellbrown

    I’ll summarize:

    Why all teh haterz? Why everyone so mean to Wewe? She’s just following her heart! Brandi is being so mean, what gives her the right to be so judgmental about poor widdle sweet and innocent Weann?? In fact, Brandi is teh EVUL! She cray cray! Wewe’s the only victim in this whole story really. The only one. In fact, she should be put up on a pedestal and be idolized for being such a good person through all her suffering.

    For real?!?!?! Wow, I want whatever all these people are smoking.

  44. TeeTee says:

    WHEW!!! once again, she cracks me up with her craziness!!! just wow!!!

    what a idiot! YUP, she pays for everything that’s why Eddie will not say a word!!

    what a loser.

  45. Liana says:

    I am a stepmother and I know that I ALWAYS call Soph’s mom if she’s sick, gets hurt, or if she has a hangnail for crying out loud

  46. Lita says:

    @AB – I mentioned this on another (unrelated) thread but I don’t recognise your nick so maybe you’re a lurker but, sod it, I am going to repeat myself.

    Don’t bring garbage from other boards here and expect it to have any relevance.

    There’s a reason we all put up with the incessant moderation and picky posters – (in part) it’s because crap like you just spewed forth just doesn’t slide by.

  47. Lita says:

    Liana, I’m sure though, as rational people, your husband also maintains co-parent lines of communication with his ex. Leanne makes herself a target with her tweeting (I think twitter is asinine and she should esp not use the kids as content). Here it’s not *all* her fault that nobody contacted the mother – hello, eddie. Though it’s all her fault she cannot pass the time of day without tweeting it. Tbh though, if, fingers crossed to not, I was to split, I’d hope my then-ex and his new gf would treat our kids as they were ‘their own’ and care for them like that. I have heard too many awful stories of when this doesn’t happen and the kids just – well, they suffer. And it’s sad.

  48. jj says:

    Hey Rita, what’s your take on the Daryll Brown Tweet rant againest Brandi. Pretty serious allegations (drug, alcohol, mental)from him. It only underscores to me that LeLe is the real psycho and will do whatever she can to destroy Brandi. Please Brandi get your attorney to address this situation and protect what is yours!

  49. AB says:

    @Lita
    I posted a link to a publicly available Twitter account, rather than copying and pasting 20 posts that are relevant to this story, in that it’s someone close to Rimes who is publicizing their “private” garbage even more.

    I have no idea what boards you are talking about, I “summarized” (as I CLEARLY noted in my post) the Twitter rant for those who chose to look at what Rimes close personal friend had to say about her married boyfriend’s wife, or not.

    Anyone can see any “relevance” they’d like in my mocking of a, in my opinion, slightly crazy Twitter rant. All of these lunatics Twitters are used in the media articles referenced on this site, Twitter is used as a “source”. Which is why people who are in the entertainment industry should listen to their publicists and watch what they are “putting out there”. Rimes doesn’t it seems, that’s what makes this whole melodrama more entertaining.

  50. tango says:

    Yes, it’s Eddies responsibility to call his ex wife when their child gets injured. Even so, a reasonable person would say “hey did you call your ex to let her know?” just because it’s the considerate thing to do.

    I really think Eddie passively sits by and lets LeAnn do the dirty work for him. Number one she likes to stir sh*t so she’s always open to get back at his ex so he doesn’t have to directly and number two, she’s the one who gets blamed. Eddie kinda skates blame free from every wackadoo thing LeAnn does as all the attention is paid to her. There is absolutely no way he’d put up with LeAnns behavior unless he condoned it &/or didn’t have the guts to tell her knock it off or he’s leaving her. So that means he’s either a big wussy or he loves when LeAnn actively irks his ex. I also don’t understand why LeAnn had to even go to the hospital with Eddie and the kid. Stitches aren’t exactly that serious where her support is need. Did she think Eddie was going to chat up a nurse or pick up a doctor so she had to be there to be his in person chasity belt?

  51. N.D. says:

    I really don’t get why this non-communication incident is all LeAnn fault, where the fuck was their father? Isn’t he the one to whom Brandie should be talking to about this kind of things? Why is she complaining to journalists about LeAnn who isn’t even a legal stepmom yet? And not even mentions kids’ father like he’s non-entity in this situation?

  52. brin says:

    Wewe is now tweeting about her wonderful friend, Darrell Brown. Psychos of a feather tweet together.
    BTW…..in that top picture she looks like a man (more than ususal).

  53. Jezi says:

    The only thing she mentioned regarding LeAnn was that co-parenting would be easier if LeAnn didn’t involve herself in their kid’s affairs. She didn’t say, LeAnn should’ve called me. She speaks of co-parenting here. I mean LeAnn wants to act like she’s the stepmom when it comes to school lunches and school clothes shopping and show up at the first day of school but when it comes to contacting the boys mom when their’s an accident she wants to use the defense that it isn’t her place. Even though it’s not her responsibility, you can’t pick and choose when you want to be in that role.

  54. flutters says:

    Edit: When it comes to these people, I just can’t.

  55. N says:

    @ Embee……you said it perfectly.

    I read this story, and I seriously felt my heart rate increase in angst for Brandi and the little boy. The first person my children want when they get hurt is ME….

    The thought of someone KEEPING me unaware and hence, absent from them when they needed me is enough to make me realize I could physically hurt someone in that circumstance. It’s this primal mother lion response I suppose, but I so empathize with Brandi.

  56. bagladey says:

    IMHO any injury requiring stitches to a child is serious, and two serious injuries to those boys in such a short space of time is unacceptable. Leann Rimes likes to feel all competent and powerful and full of herself but she has no experience in child care and it’s obvious that those children need a nanny to properly supervise and care them when they are at their father’s home, maybe until Leeann sucessfully finishes a parenting course.

  57. Eileen says:

    The Twitter is blowing up over this. Everyone is commenting on it now.
    BrandiGlanville

    “To be clear, I said it was Eddie’s mistake to not contact me and that Leann needs to stay out of it and allow him to do what is right.”

    Darrellbrown

    “So all this constant stirring of crap is coming from the one person In this drama. Brandi
    Not from dean. Not from leann not from sarah not from mason and Jake not from eddies parents nit from leann parents not from deans family not from sarahs. All of them have the intelligence to not keep picking at scabs until the scars become the only thing of meaning in their life ”

    Who the hell is sarah?

  58. brin says:

    Who the hell is Darrell & why is he getting in this…..all of a sudden wewe goes mute?

  59. Jezi says:

    Sarah is Dean’s new girlfriend. They just moved in together or are moving in together. Right it’s very easy for Dean to move on since he doesn’t have kids with Leann. He gets to sever all ties. Poor Brandi doesn’t have the leisure of doing so.

  60. carly says:

    Eddie’s balls were cut off by Leann because she has the magic money in her bank account.

    Most Dads would stop their mistress/live in girlfriend to not tweet constantly about their children to the world. Not dear Eddie, he’s being supported so he has to shut his trap. What a MAN.

  61. N says:

    If we turned off the television or radio whenever these two came on, could we effectively prevent them from being hired and hence, make them disappear? They truly disgust me (meaning Leann and Eddie).

  62. Fae says:

    Good lord, what an absolutely disgusting woman. It’s not just the utter depravity of deliberately not telling his mother that he was hurt, it’s the sick way in which she manipulates the minds of two small children.

    What an evil woman, and Eddie letting her do this to his kids whilst he’s there is tantamount to neglect.

  63. Kiska says:

    Just wait Leann, if you have kids of your own and a younger, dumber model of yourself has your precious kids and your ex-husband plus rubbing your nose in it by constant, public updates…it would sting. A child is taken to the ER, the biological mother should be called no matter what.

    Karma, LeAnn is coming your way, bitch. hang on.

  64. Rita says:

    Darrel is Darrel Brown, LeAnn’s songwriter to enables her as god’s gift to the music industry. He’s been bad mouthing Brandi for months. He’s an f’in idiot.

  65. brin says:

    Thanks, Rita…..I’m sure Leann pays that f’in idiot well, too.

  66. Darla says:

    So it’s Brandi who keeps stirring this up, except for the two useless, selfish morons who started this in the first place by cheating and lying to someone they promised to love, honor, and obey. They, of course, are totally blameless.

  67. Eileen says:

    Seriously-I just dug up my old Twitter acct info today and logged in for the first time in forever and began following this crazy sh!t on there. Leann seriously tweets like every hour on there. Then when she’s not tweeting, her friends are or someone from Brandi’s camp is. You can’t make this stuff up!

  68. LBees says:

    Eddie should have called out of courtesy, Leanne should have waited to twooter; But when was the last time these people were courteous?

    BTW, when two parents have equal custody, the current custodial parent is allowed to make general medical decisions without informing the other parent, or getting their consent. This was obviously not a life threatening injury, and while (and I stress this!) he SHOULD have been courteous and informed her, he probably didn’t HAVE to do so.

  69. Crittle says:

    Why does Crazy keep insisting on twittering about those kids. EC should make her stop

  70. Liana says:

    Liana, I’m sure though, as rational people, your husband also maintains co-parent lines of communication with his ex.
    ***************

    Yeah, and ultimately it’s JP’s responsibility to contact Annie (ex) and in this case, it’s Eddie’s ultimate responsibility. But if she had time to tweet about it, she could have had time to say “hey Eddie, are you calling Brandi or do you want me to, since I have my phone out?”

  71. Shelley says:

    Wow. Maybe it’s this simple: the boys probably are nice kids and are fun to be with, lovable etc. They’re at very nice ages and hopefully like LeAnn. LeAnn – whatever you think of the manner in which she and Eddie joined up – probably likes them because most people do enjoy being around nice little kids. That’s how her Tweets sound to me. I believe LeAnn sued and has little contact with one or both of her parents long ago. So yes she has a lot to learn on how to be a good adult influence in their lives. But I believe she’s trying.

    Yes Brandi should have been called both times and yes it should have been Eddie who did so. But even if he didn’t want to LeAnn should have and hopefully will if the need occurs again.

    Eddie isn’t 28 – he has many years on LeAnn and
    7+ years more as a parent.

  72. la chica says:

    it was NOT LeAnn’s job to call the children’s mother. that is their father’s job. LeAnn’s job is stay out of it.

  73. Mouse says:

    I think the term “hyper narcissistic” is a great way to describe LeAnn and I’d be upset with her too, if I was the biological mother of those boys. But why in hell isn’t she getting upset at their FATHER? Why didn’t HE contact her to let her know what was going on? What a despicable scumbag, I hope karma bites his ass and he has to be the next one to get stitches.

  74. GatsbyGal says:

    LeAnn is only playing step-mother to get under Brandi’s skin, and it’s so childish and transparent.

  75. orion70 says:

    uhhhhh, this is idiotic, but can we all cut it with the “oh just you wait until you have kids, you will understand” BS?

    This has nothing to do with someone not having kids, it has to do with someone not having a clue and generally being an idiot. I don’t have kids, and I would never do something like this.

  76. jj says:

    Deadbeat Eddie copied part of Darrell Brown’s rant againest Brandi on his twit page. DelusionalLeann nows only wants to think good thoughts. Yep, since her paid posse spewed the garbage she can exist back in her fairytale world. She is out to destroy Brandi and with all of the “rehab”, “alcohol” and “drug” innuendo by D. Brown and endorsed by EC, look for some action to take her kids away. He should be ashamed of himself and his parents, how in the world can they stand to look at him? Sold his soul to the devil of LR.

  77. Sandy says:

    I think she seriously has some sort of personality disorder. Seriously, this chick is so self-centered it’s psychotic. I predict Eddie cutting bait in 5…4..3…2..

  78. Stephanie says:

    I keep wondering why LR is famous. She had what some consider to be a good song many years ago. I’m just considering that she has all of her money and fame from her singing career, which kind of baffles me. She’s not good enough to warrant all the attention and success IMO.

  79. jemshoes says:

    We can all agree that Leanne is immature and narcissistic, that Brandi is trying to be the best mother she can be under the circumstances and that Eddie is completely reprehensible in sitting back and allowing these 2 women to “fight” over the kids in the same way he thinks they “fight” over him. Leanne gives everyone ammo because she can’t help herself but Eddie’s smart: he lets his girlfriend do all the dirty work, sits back and enjoys an-expenses-paid life. Shame on him!

  80. Sassy says:

    What.the.fuck?

    OK, fine, if LR wants to be an involved step-parent, I’ll give the loonie a point for that.

    BUT – you do not fucking tweet about an emergency involving said stepchild BEFORE HIS BIO MOTHER KNOWS ABOUT IT. (or really at all – does Brandi really want private details about her kids all over Twitter? Doubt it).

    It was Eddie’s job as THE FATHER to call Brandi and if LR had a problem with that, tough shit. Mom should have absolutely had a call IMMEDIATELY – that’s what coparenting is all about. It’s not about daddy’s crazy new girlfriend making the decisions as she sees fit.

    Jesus. This woman.

  81. carly says:

    Ohmygod! Wendy Williams cracked me up. She says Leann has always been unfortunate looking but she’s now quirky goodlooking as she ages. heehee

    Showbiz Tonight weighs in, Leann Supporters hold on to your seats it’s not pretty!
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bgwqPivZJAo&NR=1

  82. carly says:

    Did y’all watch the E news! video of Brandi Cibrian when they came up to her in a parking lot. They asked her about Leann’s ER tweet about her son.

    She says it was EDDIE’s mistake/fault to not call her but that Leann needs to stay out of it and not interfere.

    Leann says on her Twitter that she & Eddie handled it fine themselves. That’s what started all this to me.

  83. brin says:

    @jj & jemshoes…I totally agree, but the TWO “minor” accidents happened on Eddie’s watch and Brandi needs to go to court with that.
    Leann can pay whoever, she is still low life trash.

  84. Debra says:

    thank you carly #82
    finally, Brandi never said LR should have called her or said “leann is a bad parent”

    she said she didn’t get a call and that choice was bad parenting, which it was, on eddie’s part

    she said LR needs to stay out of the co-parenting, which she does.

    BG does not write the headlines for these stories, so if LR or Darrell brown or whoever has a problem they should take it up with E news.

    If leann hadn’t tweeted this news in the first place, it would not be news now…she brought this all on herself, with no one else to blame

  85. Crash2GO2 says:

    @carly: I have to say, I’m sick of the whole ‘stole stole stole’ theme. You can’t steal a person’s husband or wife, that is ridiculous. That is putting all of the blame of Leann and nothing on Eddie, while he cheated on HIS wife, and ‘stole’ (if you will) Leann from Dean.

    It’s interesting that women are characterized as ‘stealers’ while men are characterized as ‘cheaters’. Stealing is definitely more sinister than cheating.

  86. brin says:

    OMG….wewe tweeted that she is going to “awe my love”. The higher this nut goes up Mt. Brag, the more spectacular her fall is gonna be. Worth the wait!

  87. Rita says:

    @Crash2Go2

    You’re correct that the technical definition of “Stole” is weak when applied to a situation where a woman forms a plan to seperate a husband from his wife and employs lawyers, setup men, spokes people, a PR staff, the media, and internet personnel to execute that plan no matter the cost.

    The plan began with flirting, then sexual favors, exposing the affair to the public, cancelling performances to stalk him, getting him acting jobs, buying him expensive gifts and vacations, and buying a house across from the kid’s school, after which she uses the children for public relations, photo-ops, and to taunt his wife.

    No, “stealing” which would be the act of breaking into Eddie’s home and carrying him away for personal pleasure is much more benign than what LeAnn did. I’m not sure what you call it but only her immoral fans would call it right.

  88. Lway says:

    What goes around …. comes around.

    LeAnn will come around when she has her own kids with Eddie and he dumps her skanky ass for the next girl.

    As for Brandi – i feel her pain. She’s their mom and should be included in everything that has anything to do with her children.

  89. jj says:

    Rita you nailed it! The CIA could take some lessons from DelusionalAnne’s Covert Operation to get what she wanted. Yesterday’s disgusting rant by D.Brown shoed again how “good” she is at manipulation and playing the victim. What is very scary are the LR condoned tweets of that AssJohnson person, BG’s lawyers should check this out.

  90. Jag says:

    LeAnn has grown to be a seemingly unstable woman. Certainly, the mother of the boys should be notified; that falls on both Eddie and LeAnn. How awful it must be to be forced to let them take the children 50% of the time if they’re going to act that way.

  91. Anti-icon says:

    LeAnn, because you are obviously so daft, I will keep it short and simple.

    Talk Less.

  92. Anti-icon says:

    Is it legal to file for a restraining order due to electronic abuse???? That’s what Brandi should do. Shut everyone (Leann, Eddie, Brandi) off Twitter due to mental distress it inflicts, coupled with invasion of privacy due to its potential to reveal the whereabouts of the children.

    Legal measures must stop twitter abuse in child rearing.

  93. aury says:

    God, i can’t wait until he unloads that squinty-eyed barracuda once & for all. friggin nutjob.

  94. nofreelunch says:

    seriously, let’s back off this chick for awhile. Clearly she’s emotionally immature and I know there is a crazy back story here, but she doesn’t seem too stable y’all.
