Baby News: David Duchovny & Tea Leoni Expecting?

Sassy Smith — Fri, 03 Apr 2009 16:06:00 GMT

X-Files star David Duchovny and actress Tea Leoni, recently reconciled and according to friends, they're not only concentrating on their relationship, they're even talking more kids!

A friend says, "Can you say bundle of joy for David Duchovny and Tea Leoni?"

David and Tea recently spent time on the Caribbean island of Mustique with their two kids, Madelaine, 9, and Kyd, 6.

"Little by little they've managed to work through them [their problems]. And the fact they still see each other often in New York City helped," said the friend.

The couple have maintained separate apartments near each other in Manhattan, for the past few months, so they could share time with their kids.

"There are still a lot of feelings between Tea and David," added the insider. "They never actually filed for formal separation - I don't think they ever wanted the marriage to end.

"It just took a romantic holiday with their kids to finally bring them to their senses."

Plus, David is aware that Tea has always wanted a third child, and now that she's 43, and he's 48, they know there's no time to waste.

The source said, "To win her back, he played his trump card. He promised if she were not pregnant in a year they would look into adoption."

After David completed rehab for sexual addiction, Tea put him "on probation." She was unsure of their future.

"Tea wanted proof that David's number one priority is family. And with him committing to expanding the brood, Tea feels like she can trust him again."

Good luck, and hope they get all they want!

Reunited: David Duchovny & Tea Leoni!

Sassy Smith — Fri, 27 Mar 2009 13:04:00 GMT

Admitted sex addict, David Duchovny and wife Tea Leoni, split last year after the X-Files actor went into rehab. In October, after David had completed his treatment, he begged Tea to take him back, however, things didn't work out that way. But now, according to sources, the couple has reconciled!

Duchovny and Leoni are said to be "working it out," and recently took a vacation with their two children - daughter Madelaine, 9, and Kyd, 6. The family traveled to the Mustique island in the West Indies.

A source said, "David and Tea were holding hands on the beach. Everyone seemed very happy, and she looked fantastic!"

They do seem like a great couple, so let's hope David continues with treatment and they can rebuild their trust and family. Wish them luck!

Fatboy Slim in Rehab

Whit Honea — Thu, 05 Mar 2009 20:04:00 GMT

Fatboy Slim, aka DJ Norman Cook, has checked himself into rehab for alcohol addiction.

Cook has a nine-year-old son named Woody. Sounds like rehab should have come a bit sooner, but hey, at least he's going now. Woody will be the better for it.

The 45-year-old Cook told the Mirror UK, “...sometimes it feels a little undignified but I never seem to get tired of getting drunk.

“I’ve tried going on stage sober and it wasn’t much fun.

“There’s a certain bravado involved in what I do. It takes a lot of alcohol to stop me thinking ‘You’re a 40-year-old man. What are you doing whirling that towel above your head’?”

Cook may be best known for his role as Fatboy Slim but I'm a bigger fan of his previous projects the Housemartins and Beats International. Still, you can't deny the pure awesomeness of this:

Get well, Fatboy.

David Duchovny and Tea Leoni Together Again

Karl Erikson — Tue, 09 Dec 2008 15:36:00 GMT

"Californication" star David Duchovny and actress wife Tea Leoni back together again? Yes! After David did his rehab stint for sex addiction, and it became known that he had extramarital affairs, Tea said enough's enough and declared it was over.

But here they are spending time together with their children, Madelaine, 9, and Kyd, 6. They took the kids to a Knicks game at Madison Square Garden, where the Knicks took on the Pistons. And David and Tea are clearly having a good time together.

Several reports have said the couple have been getting smoochy again. Seems they are indeed getting back together since they are moving into a new $7.5 million apartment in New York City. They bought the apartment together in late November.

Looks like the X-Files are now just the Files. That's got to be great for the kids, don't you think? I would have sold my soul to get my parents back together when I was a kid. Course, on the odd occasion they're under the same roof these days, it makes me wonder what the hell I was thinking. Still, kids want their parents to get along, and I'd say this is a marvelous Christmas present for Madelaine and Kyd.

Did Téa Leoni Take Sex Addict David Duchovny Back?

Sassy Smith — Thu, 06 Nov 2008 12:07:00 GMT

After newly rehabbed sex addict David Duchovny went back home, he and wife Téa Leoni announced that they had actually split months before. Duchovny apparently has been begging her to take him back, and perhaps she has....

Despite numerous reports of the couple splitting, it seems they haven't just yet - they've been seen together, even holding hands. They were out Friday night with their kids Madelaine, 9, and Kyd, 6 and although they probably want to remain friendly for the sake of their children, doesn't mean they had to hold hands!

A souce said, "They were very cute and were holding hands. They looked very mellow and relaxed."

So, can they patch things up? Is it possible for a sex addict to be reformed and be faithful? They do make a cute couple, so let's hope they can make it work!

Sex Addict David Duchovny Begs Tea Leoni To Take Him Back

Sassy Smith — Tue, 28 Oct 2008 12:37:00 GMT

X-Files star and recently admitted sex addict, David Duchovny, has completed rehab and although he and his wife announced their separation, he wants her back. He's reportedly begged Tea to work it out.

According to The Enquirer, David has been begging wife Tea to reconsider their relationship but she's refused. Duchovny is blaming actor Billy Bob Thornton after he discovered explicit text messages from him to Tea (the two are co-starring in Manure). Thornton has since denied any such messages, saying they are "just friends."

David and Tea have two children - Madelaine, 9, and Kyd, 6 - and he wants to salvage their marriage in part for the children. Tea and the kids had joined David on October 17 in Atlanta where he's filming The Joneses and he thought perhaps things were on the mend.

A source said, "Tea made it clear to David that she was in Atlanta only so the kids could see their father.

"They stayed in separate rooms at his rental home. At one point, David begged Tea not to go through with the divorce. But she refused, telling him, 'No, it's over.'"

A pal close to Duchovny said, "It was one of the worst weekends of David's life. He had to tell his kids that their mommy and daddy are going to split up for good."

Shame, that these two couldn't make it. But I feel for Tea - must be hard to be with someone who has such an addiction. Hopefully the kids make out OK through all of this.

Now that Tea Leoni and David Duchovny are splitting up and absolutely no one is surprised, Billy Bob wants you to know one Democratic thing. He did NOT have sexual relations with that woman.

Hear that? He is not having an affair with Tea Leoni. The two were in an upcoming film called "Manure" and they are "just friends."

Well, that doesn't sound like "Manure" at all, does it? After all, the same can be said for Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie when they worked on "Mr. and Mrs. Smith." They, too, were NOT having an affair when Brad was married to Jen Aniston. They certainly never wound up being a couple.

"Just friends." Yep. You believe Billy Bob, don't you?

Ex X-Files star David Duchovny and his wife Téa Leoni released a statement on Wednesday saying they have been separated for several months. Duchovny was recently treated for sex addiction but is now reportedly 'cured.' I'm not sure how that works. Is he wearing a chastity belt? Did they take away his computer?

Their statement reads:

"In light of continuous speculation over the lives and marriage of Téa Leoni and David Duchovny, the couple has confirmed that they have in fact been separated for several months. The couple had hoped to keep this separation private for the sake of their children."

Another celebrity couple are now in the Ex-Files. Let's hope these two can keep their divorce civil for the sake of their children. Duchovny and Leoni have a daughter Madelaine West, 9, and son Kyd, 6.

David Duchovny Had Some Sexual Healing

Karl Erikson — Tue, 07 Oct 2008 12:41:00 GMT

After a really long stay in rehab for his sex addiction, David Duchovny is finally out. He was spotted in New York City this weekend with wife Tea Leoni at the Czech Street Festival. I'm sure he'll be filming the next season of "Californication" some time soon, which has got to be difficult. I mean, you don't throw an alcoholic into a bar, do you?

If I were Tea, I'd install spy software on all the computers and put in a lot of surveillance cameras.

Duchovny Will Overcome Rehab, Tea Leoni in Counseling

Karl Erikson — Thu, 25 Sep 2008 20:02:00 GMT

David Duchovny, star of "The X Files" and hit Showtime show "Californication," checked into rehab early last month. The new season of Californication starts this month, September 28, and Madeleine Martin - the actress who plays Duchovny's daughter on the show - is confident that David will get better.

Martin said, "I know all families have problems - it's how you deal with those problems that matters. David has a strong family. I'm sure he'll overcome it." It helps that he plays a sex-starved writer on the show, I'm sure.

Speaking of overcoming it, Duchovny's real-life wife, Tea Leoni, is trying to deal with her severe depression about the whole sex addiction thing by going to counseling. I don't blame her. What else are you supposed to do when you learn that your husband has been cheating on you for years? Leave his ass?

The couple have two kids: Madelaine, 11, and Kyd, 6.

David Duchovny Ads are Pulled from Johnston & Murphy Stores

Karl Erikson — Tue, 02 Sep 2008 17:33:00 GMT

Johnston & Murphy, a ritzy shoe retailer, decided to pull all ads featuring porn-addled David Duchovny. Duchovny, 48-year-old star of "Californication" and "The X-Files," entered rehab last week because of a sex addiction. The NYC shoe store quickly removed all of the Duchovny ads and a store employee told the NY Post, "We got the call from corporate this morning to take him down."

This was a huge ad campaign for the retailer, and just started last month. They even used the tagline, "Johnston, Murphy, & Duchovny."

It's a big reversal, considering the press release Johnston & Murphy put out about the campaign. Part of it reads:

"We’re thrilled to have David Duchovny as part of our ad campaign," Jason Dasal, vp-marketing at Johnston & Murphy, Nashville, Tenn., said in a statement. "David embodies success and confidence, along with a great sense of style, communicating the ideal image for the Johnston & Murphy brand."

Oh, and he loves the sexy-sexy time. But hey, who doesn't? I guess people that love sex don't need shoes or something.

I want to believe. I want to believe that Mulder isn't in rehab. Alas, he is. And not for oxycontin addiction. Not for cocaine. Not for booze. David Duchovny, 48-year-old star of "Californication" has entered rehab because he's looking at too much alien porn. I know!

Duchovny has two kids with Tea Leoni, Madelaine, 9, and Kyd, 6.

"I have voluntarily entered a facility for the treatment of sex addiction, I ask for respect and privacy for my wife and children as we deal with this situation as a family," Duchovny said in a statement.

What? That's an addiction? Looks like I'm going into rehab. I'm thinking all the women in my group therapy sessions will be a sure thing.

Josh Hamilton Loves God and Baseball

Whit Honea — Tue, 15 Jul 2008 16:45:00 GMT

Did you watch the MLB Home Run Derby last night? If you did then you know what I'm talking about. If you didn't, then your loss. End of post.

Just kidding.

Alright, here's the short version on Josh Hamilton. He was a blue chip prospect a few years back- first guy taken in the draft. He had some issues that derailed his career, namely drugs and alcohol. He was out of baseball for 3 years during which he started having visions and found God and got his act together. He's back:

Last night Josh stood beneath the lights in Yankee Stadium and looked into the eyes of the 71-year-old man pitching to him. Hamilton had brought his old pitching coach from his childhood to pitch to him, making good on a promise once made. Josh Hamilton stood there at the plate, sober and determined and proceeded to hit 28 home runs in the first round, thirteen of them on consecutive swings. It was a record. It had the crowd roaring. It was a dream literally come true.

You could see the movie being made even as Josh ultimately lost the 3 round contest to Justin Morneau. A baseball movie about more than baseball. Kevin Costner would have to gain about 30 pounds for the role.

Josh is married to Katie who is pregnant. They have one daughter together and Katie has a daughter from a previous relationship.

Richie Sambora Stands Behind Ex-Wife Heather Locklear

They may be divorced, but they are raising a little girl they both love very much."

And despite being on the road touring with his band Bon Jovi until July, Sambora's pal insists the star will be there for Locklear if she needs him.

The source adds, "I'm sure he's available if Heather should need something and certainly for Ava."

Amy Winehouse Baby News - Be Afraid!

Sassy Smith — Fri, 20 Jun 2008 13:35:00 GMT

When one thinks of Amy Winehouse, the word "baby" should not come to mind. I swear, no matter how hard I try, picturing Amy as a mother - it's beyond all human comprehension. The girl can't even take care of herself, let alone another human being, who, hello?, needs taking care of! She was seen recently with horribly, disgusting dirty feet - seriously, if you can't wash your own feet, you're not capable of feeding, changing, and bathing another, totally dependent person. Yet, "baby" is going to be a part of Amy Winehouse's life....

Amy's dad, Mitch, has been speaking a lot lately about his drug addicted daughter and her progress (?) and her eagerness to make babies. He said that his daughter and her husband Blake Fielder-Civil, 26, will start a family when Blake is released from prison.

He said, "When it comes to Amy, I'm hopeful. I think she'll be fine, and if Blake's out of prison in a year, they'll be having a family." Does this scare you as much as it scares me?

Blake's been locked up for 7 months and his trial began last week. He's admitted to assault and perverting the course of justice and he could face up to five years in the slammer. However, no matter, Amy is going to wait it out. Her dad said, "Amy understands Blake might have to do a long time in prison - she's not stupid. But she'll stand by him and he'll stand by her."

Amy's dad also spoke about his anger towards his son-in-law concerning the video footage of Amy, 24, singing a racist song, taking drugs and performing sex acts on her husband - which, by the way, was filmed by Blake. Amy asks him to stop filming at one point.

Said Mitch, "It was Amy’s memory card, which was stolen from her camera a few months ago. It was taken during the height of their drug use, but I'm angry. Blake should be looking after Amy, not filming her when she’s worse for wear."

Amy's father holds on to hope, that his daughter will get well again. Although, he admits that her rehab stint a few months ago didn't work, he's positive the future is brighter.

"She didn’t want to get clean then, but she’s talking about it now. She’s nowhere near as bad as she was. A nurse visits twice a day and we’re kept well informed about how she’s doing.

"She’s making progress. She wants kids and knows she can’t be taking drugs, or the baby would be addicted – she wouldn’t do that."

Yikes, I'm still scared.

Rescue Me: Tatum O'Neal Arrested For Crack

sweatpantsmom — Mon, 02 Jun 2008 15:15:00 GMT

Academy Award winning actress Tatum O'Neal was arrested Sunday evening for buying crack cocaine near her home in Manhattan.

O'Neal, who is currently starring in the FX drama Rescue Me, was busted after she was seen handing money to a street dealer. When police searched her they found two bags of drugs - one with crack, one with regular cocaine - and an unused crack pipe.

The Daily News quotes a source as saying the actress initially told police that she "was doing research for a part," but changed her story after the drugs were found. "I've been clean for a long time," she reportedly pleaded as she asked cops to give her a break, the source said. "Today was the first time I was relapsing, but you guys saved me! Can you let me go?"

O'Neal's arrest comes after a public warning she issued to Britney Spears last year, in which she urged the singer to get help and to keep her children out of the media spotlight. O'Neal's previous drug use led to her losing custody of her three children to ex-husband John McEnroe back in 1995.

"I did everything that she doesn't want to do," O'Neal said in her statement regarding Spears. "I did the drug testing ... It was very humbling, but I wanted those kids back."

"Not being able to see my kids is like part of me is missing," she continued. "Part of my soul is missing."

Also, have no idea why he's grabbing Amy's nose, but let's hope he doesn't work for the DEA.

Then Amy decides to take a break from all this maternal crap and knock back a little refreshment. Let's hope she puts the kid down before she lights her pipe.

Kate Moss Is Getting Juicy

Karen — Tue, 26 Feb 2008 20:02:00 GMT

Supermodel Kate Moss is trying to get healthy, with the help of her friend Sadie Frost's mother, Mary Davidson.

According to an insider, “Mary, who is now Moss’ live-in nanny, not only looks after the supermodel’s five year old daughter Lila Grace’s diet, but she makes sure that the catwalk queen, who regularly stumbles home in the early hours after a heavy night of partying, follows a healthy diet too.”

The source tells: “Moss has now given up her morning-after-the-night-before breakfasts of fried bread, eggs and bacon in favor of muesli and is embracing salads, oily fish and smoothies.”

“Kate is responding well to having a surrogate mother and is in agreement about her bad diet,” a Daily Express source tells, adding, “The bacon butties have flown out the window and she’s even started juicing.”

Now if we could get her to shower, quit smoking and go back to being a brunette, she'd stop looking like trash.

'Mystery Son' of Brad Renfro

sweatpantsmom — Tue, 22 Jan 2008 13:05:00 GMT

Who is Brad Renfro's son? The obituary for Renfro, who was laid to rest yesterday, lists Y Renfro as one of the actor's survivors. However, no reference to the actor having children are listed in any of his biographies.

In another discovery after his death, the L.A. County Cornor discovered a freshly-inked tattoo across his back that read, "F*CK ALL Y'ALL" which is being interpreted as an indication of his dark mood in his final days.

Renfro was found dead in his Los Angeles apartment last week. The cause of death has not yet been determined.

The cause of Renfro's death is still unknown, but the young actor had spent years battling drug and alcohol addiction. The Los Angeles County Coroner's office says the autopsy will be done today, but toxicology results normally take several weeks.

Being Patient with Jeff Tweedy

Whit Honea — Mon, 10 Dec 2007 19:37:00 GMT

Jeff Tweedy of Wilco is widely considered a musical genius, so you know the guy has demons. Aren't they par for the course? In a recent interview he talked about dealing with addiction and fame while trying to maintain some semblance of normal family life:

"You know, it's something that's very hard for me to admit, but for that matter I'm sure I wasn't my best for a lot of years with my kids. I think I've always tried hard to be a good dad, but there is no way to live up to your potential when you're dealing with addiction or those things. This is a different reality for them than other children. They have a father that is somewhat in the public eye, it's not like Madonna, living in a bubble. But I just have to deal with it.

"...Spencer is 11, and awhile back, he said 'I just read on Wikipedia that you started smoking pot when you quit drinking in nineteen-whatever. That makes me so mad. Wikipedia is always so wrong. It's just like, so stupid.' And I had to take him aside and say 'Spencer, I didn't think I was going to have to have this discussion with you at this age, because it is not something that has really entered your world, but I don't want to lie to you. That Wikipedia thing, there are probably a lot of wrong things on there, but that is not one of them. That happened.'"

That's got to be tough. It's hard enough trying to be a good parent without the world airing your dirty laundry for you. That's why I'm glad my kids can't read.
