Brad Falchuk didn’t dump Gwyneth Paltrow via text, they’re in Rome together

Rome! #mirabiliaromae @maisonvalentino ❤️❤️❤️

A photo posted by Gwyneth Paltrow (@gwynethpaltrow) on

Gwyneth Paltrow appeared – like a smug vapor – in Rome yesterday at the Valentino show. As Paris Fashion Week ended, Rome and Berlin Fashion Weeks began. Some people loved Gwyneth’s bold red dress, and while I prefer Goop in a bright color (she goes to the beige/cream/black well too often), this dress makes her look pregnant. A pregnant woman would look fabulous in this. I could see Kanye pulling this for Kim. As for Gwyneth’s hair… I give up. It looks like flat-ironed straw.

So did Gwyneth appear in Rome all alone? No. Shockingly, her boyfriend (???) Brad Falchuk was with her – go here to see those photos. They were spotted in a car, with Goop driving, in Rome. It’s been reported for weeks now that Brad dumped Gwyneth. He was photographed on a date with another woman.

Star Magazine even went so far as to say that Falchuk dumped Gwyneth “via text… He knew it was wrong, but he just couldn’t face the lecture he knew he’d get.” Sources claimed that Brad “had enough of her telling him what to do, say and eat. He couldn’t suggest a restaurant without her criticizing his choices.” Of course, sources also claimed that Gwyneth thought the whole situation was gauche and peasanty because Brad hasn’t finalized his divorce. So what happened? Did they never break up? Or did they take their relationship down to “friends with benefits”? Or did they take a break and this Rome trip was their make-or-break relationship moment? I have no idea. I suspect that if they’re still together (which it seems like they are), there’s still trouble in Goop paradise.

    don’t like anything about that dress.

    I see another tabloid story that was WRONG.. I wonder if people will still say that the Tabs are on a roll of being right..NOPE just being lucky a few times out of Thousands of being WRONGS

    • Luca76 says:

      I think most people on this site at least get it. The tabloids are dishonest and unreliable and aren’t above fabricating a story but sometimes they are getting real gossip and are right. Not in a clock twice a day way but because they have sources in camps and reliable leaks. It’s really up to each individual to decide what they believe and at the end of the day it’s all just conjecture.

    Oh goodness. This looks like a LOT of material…..slightly moo moo-esque, eh?

    • Kiddo says:

      I think we need a consult from Kitten on this.

      • Kitten says:

        It is indeed a muumuu and it is a fantastic muumuu at that.

        Comfortable and loose-fitting, this muumuu would be appropriate for relaxing around the house, yet roomy enough to fit several frozen pizzas, and at least three sixers of good beer underneath, without attracting the attention of store security.

        All in all, I would say that this muumuu achieves both form and function.

        You’re welcome.

        And now I want one.

      • Janet R says:

        It looks kind of cute when she sitting, but wow – lotsa fabric!

    • annaloo. says:

      She looks like a traffic cone. With straw coming out the top.

  3. Azurea says:

    I bet Valentino goes commando.

  4. Jayna says:

    What, a rag mag is wrong? I’m shocked.

  5. Sarah says:

    Kim would never wear that while pregnant. It doesn’t stretch across her, straining to pop every seam.

    • Mrs. Darcy says:

      How does she BREATHE? I just don’t get it. She must be so miserable and uncomfortable all of the time.

    • zinjojo says:

      Exactly! Kaiser’s comment that this looks like something Kanye would pull for Kim surprised me; we all know exactly what she wore the last time around — too tight and ridiculous — and she’s already doing the same look this time around (the white monstrosity from the other day). I don’t think she has the confidence to wear something loose and flowing, she needs to show her body at all times in order to feel “sexy”, even when it looks horrible, too small and unflattering.

  6. Mrs. Darcy says:

    Mr. Valentino you are in serious danger of trampling your very expensive overlong dress! Everything about the gown is so awkward, the amount of boob tape required (esp when sitting!), the length…ahh but when you are Gwyneth these things are no matter I guess! I just don’t get who would wear this other than supermodels on a runway, it is so impractical and pregnant making.

  7. georgia says:

    I love the dress.

  8. Amy Tennant says:

    The dress is HORRIBLE. I say that as someone with no taste and no interest in fashion, but even I can see that this is an eyesore. Where are her boobs? It’s cut low, but they’re gone. WHERE ARE HER FEET? Where IS she in all that? Is she melting into the floor? Is she a parade float? Does she actually have a couple of short guys hiding under there and lifting her up so she can be a giant lady? I don’t get it. 🙁 OK if this dress is great, I officially give up. Um… I like the color?

    • cheryl says:

      I have so many questions too. Is the designer wearing a tiara? Why the shade difference between his ankles and his face.? Was the dress originally a hallowe’en costume? Some kind of tent.parachute/tablecloth that you cut a big neck hole in? I have a lot of confidence I could make this costume…day of even… but, what is it a costume of…?
      So big success in that everyone who sees this has a lot to ponder.

      • sensible says:

        Mr Valentino is retired, his house is designed by others now, he would just be at the show like a mascot or ambassador.

  9. Jen says:

    Nobody – but NOBODY – “dumps” the Goop. Getting dumped is for (fat) peasants.

  10. Esmerelda says:

    Valentino’s shoes are IT.

  11. minx says:

    Flat-ironed straw about covers it, re: her hair.

  12. vauvert says:

    Hate the dress but never like anything Goopy wears. I used to like Valentino but he has lost the plot. Between the horrendous dress, and his own Tan Mom colour, sockless style and pompadour slippers masquerading as shoes… Ugh.
    On an aside, I was watching Blythe in an old MASH episode last night and she was ten times lovelier and more talented than her daughter.

  13. Maya says:

    Nah this is Gwyneth planning her revenge because no one dumps her and publically humiliates her.

    He might have broken up with her and now they are together but I am willing to bet Gwyneth will be doing the dumping this time around.

  14. Daphne says:

    Gwyneth stop fooling other celebs aka Jennifer Garner that your way of doing things is the best infact it is just utter rubbish and a way to say you did not fail yes u did you will eventually get divorce it is npt the end of the world own up to it.I am one of tbe few people who is truly a fan but at times you set the wrong example.Learn to be more vulnerable amd less arrogant.I truly believe you have a good heart it i need to show ot more

  15. BengalCat2000 says:

    The expression on her face in the pic with Valentino is the look of a person with really deep thoughts.

  16. Bread and Circuses says:

    REMEMBER:
    Goop is a stage 5 clinger. Even if he broke up with her, that’s no guarantee he got free of her.

    Attempts to scrape her off? Other women? Inside her delusional head, she’s perfect, therefore her life is perfect, therefore it never happened.

    I think she keeps her boyfriends mainly because they give up in exhaustion trying to thump any conflicting information into her bullet-proof head.

  17. CCV says:

    Jennifer Lawrence fans are crazy.

  18. Jaded says:

    He’s looks radioactive….not a colour normally found in nature.

    She looks like one of those kaboom conehead fireworks about to go off because her hair is tinder-dry.

  19. Anonymous says:

    Her hair is awful, and her skin doesn’t look great either. I mean, I know Goop isn’t known for her skin, but usually, she looks decently “young” and “fresh” to me. But the photos on laineygossip prove yet again what a difference good lighting and make-up can make! She looks like any other 43-year-old woman — actually, I think most of my mid-40-year-old friends look even better than she does, and none of us have the money Goop has to spend on our appearance.

  20. Kristen says:

    I was actually outside of the show, and in person this dress was really lovely on her – it moves well, but that doesn’t capture in photos.
