Eric Dane and Rebecca Gayheart: Co-parenting isn’t easy

OHMYGOSSIP — Eric Dane and Rebecca Gayheart are finding it difficult to co-parent their brood.
The ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ actor and the 46-year-old actress have two daughters Billie, eight, and Georgia, six, together, and after splitting in February they have now revealed that co-parenting “isn’t easy”.
Rebecca said: “We’re doing our best. It isn’t easy. But we are trying and we are committed.”
When asked what specifically is difficult about co-parenting, Rebecca simply said: “There are so many things.”
The couple were married for 14 years before their split earlier this year, and in her divorce filing, Rebecca requested both legal and joint custody of their girls.
And although she’s been finding their break-up difficult, the ‘Scream 2’ star said she sees a silver lining, as she’s planning on going back to work in order to show her daughters that they don’t need to “depend on a man”.
Speaking to Us Weekly magazine, she said: “I think that as a female you need to be able too always take care of of yourself and never depend on a man. I’m going back to work and I think it’s partly because I want my daughters to see me work. I took some time off to have my kids.
“A lot of little girls watch [movies] and they start fantasising about Prince Charming [saving them]. I think that’s a message that’s very old fashioned.”
Rebecca and Eric, 45, revealed the news of their split in a joint statement in February, which followed reports they had filed for divorce.
It read: “After 14 years together we have decided that ending our marriage is the best decision for our family. We will continue our friendship and work as a team to co-parent our two beautiful girls as they are the most important thing in the world to us. We kindly ask that you respect our privacy during this time as we navigate the next phase of our lives.”

Jada Pinkett Smith: Opening up isn’t hard

OHMYGOSSIP — Jada Pinkett Smith doesn’t find it “difficult” talking about her family struggles on ‘Red Table Talk’.
The 47-year-old actress was recently joined by her husband Will Smith on her Facebook Watch show where the pair discussed their turbulent past, but Jada has now said she doesn’t struggle to open up when the cameras are rolling, because she and her family talk openly “on a daily basis”.
Jada said: “That’s really how we talk on a daily basis. That’s why it’s not difficult for us. It’s how we communicate.”
Whilst her mother, Adrienne Banfield-Jones – who also stars in the show – added: “I always leave feeling like I’ve learned something from them. I love coming to their house. I love coming to LA and spending time with them because I just leave so filled up.”
Alongside Jada and her mother, the ‘Girl’s Trip’ star’s daughter Willow, 17, completes the show’s regular line-up, and the trio often open up about issues like race, mental health and forgiveness.
And Jada thinks the tricky topics are important, especially when it comes to teaching others how to “reunite after having a conflict”.
Speaking about addressing forgiveness on her show, Jada told People magazine: “I thought it was important to show how to have conversation around re-uniting after having a conflict. Because some of us don’t really know how to have those conversations. I just wanted to show the positivity of ‘black women know how to love too.’ Sometimes we get the stereotype of being really hard, and not having a certain amount of openness and gentleness and understanding.”
In Monday’s (22.10.18) episode of ‘Red Table Talk’, 50-year-old Will spoke about the struggles he and Jada – who also have 20-year-old son Jaden together – have faced throughout their relationship, including a time when his spouse cried for “45 days straight”.
He said: “There was a period where mommy woke up and cried 45 days straight, I started keeping track.”
Jada jokingly replied that he “missed some days,” and Will continued: “Every morning, I think that’s the worst I’ve ever felt in our marriage. I was failing miserably.”

Jamie Dornan could have more children – if his wife says so

OHMYGOSSIP — Jamie Dornan says the number of children he has is “up to” his wife.
The 36-year-old actor is already father to Dulcie, four, and Elva, two, and whilst his wife Amelia is currently expecting the pair’s third child, he says there could be more tots on the way if his spouse is “willing”.
He said: “Part of me feels like [I need] to put a cork in it after this. But then, alternatively, I feel like we make really great kids. Maybe we’ll just – if my wife’s willing – do it until we can’t do it anymore.
“It’s all up to her. I do the fun bit.”
Jamie plans to make room in his schedule to be at home more often when his third child arrives, as with both of his daughters, he was “at the mercy” of his role as Christian Grey in the ‘Fifty Shades of Grey’ franchise.
Speaking during an appearance on ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ on Monday (22.10.18), the ‘A Private War’ star said: “I think for this one, I’m going to have a lot more control over [my schedule]. [With] the first two [kids], I was sort of at the mercy of ‘Fifty Shades’ schedule.
“The first one we had in Canada, and I started filming three days after she was born. The second one we had in London, and I flew to Canada 10 days later and started filming the second. But this time, I’m trying to take proper time off for a few months after, as well.
“I’ve never missed a birth – I couldn’t live with myself if I missed the birth.”
His comments come after he recently revealed he has never signed up to social media, because he thinks it distracts people from spending quality time with family.
Asked about his decision not to have a presence on such apps, he said: “Yeah, definitely. Especially now with two kids and another on the way. I’m not on social media or anything. I guess that takes up a lot of people’s phone screen time.
“I think especially if you’ve got kids and they want to play with you and you’re watching what people had for breakfast then that would seem really bad. But, you know, I think the less time we spend on our phones and the more time we are together with other human beings, it’s a good thing. But, sadly, I think it’s going the other way.”

John Mayer: I once sang my own song before sex

OHMYGOSSIP — John Mayer once sang his own songs to a girl in the “run up” to sleeping with her.
The 41-year-old musician released hit single ‘Your Body is a Wonderland’ in 2001, and he says it’s proved useful with the ladies, as whilst he claims he’s never listened to his own music whilst having sex, he has had a girl ask him to sing her the track before getting under the sheets.
When asked if he’d ever had sex to his own music, he said: “No, but a girl has asked me to sing some of my songs in probably the run up to it.
“If it’s after a show and a girl asks, ‘Sing Your Body is a Wonderland,’ do you want to be the kind of guy who goes, ‘No,’ or do you want to be the kind of guy that goes like, ‘We’ve got the afternoon…?’ You want to play along.”
The ‘New Light’ singer also claimed he’s never masturbated with his own tracks on in the background either, as he doesn’t usually listen to music when he’s giving himself some love.
He said: “I don’t think I’ve masturbated to any music, except when I was much younger and MTV was all there was for a young man.”
John admitted he thinks his body count is “a soft 500”, but says he gets rejected a lot because he’s become “PR poison” for many people.
The ‘Slow Dancing in a Burning Room’ musician told Cazzie David on the unofficial Instagram live show ‘Current Mood’: “I don’t think that people are into the idea of like, ‘I snagged John Mayer.'”
John has been in several high profile relationships with the likes of Katy Perry, Jennifer Aniston, Jennifer Love Hewitt, and Jessica Simpson, but has not dated anybody recently.
His last rumoured romance was with Hailey Baldwin, who is now engaged – and thought to already be married to – Justin Bieber.

Nick Jonas in ‘no rush’ to marry Priyanka Chopra

OHMYGOSSIP — Nick Jonas is in “no rush” to tie the knot with Priyanka Chopra.
The 26-year-old singer was recently believed to have splashed out $6.6 million on a Beverly Hills mansion for himself and his fiancée – whom he popped the question to just a few months into their romance – but it has been claimed they won’t be speeding up the marriage process, as they’re taking their time to “enjoy the relationship” before their big day comes next year.
A source told ‘Entertainment Tonight’: “The couple is still planning their wedding for next year. Both of them are extremely busy, but are making time to enjoy the relationship and not rush anything more than they already have.”
But it was also claimed earlier this month that ‘Baywatch’ star Priyanka has already begun wedding planning for her nuptials.
An insider said at the time: ”Priyanka and Nick are ready to tie the knot sooner than later. The couple has had an accelerated relationship, and are very comfortable with one another.
”Priyanka has already been planning the wedding for a couple of months now and is excited to call Nick her husband one day.
”Priyanka and Nick are on the same page about wanting to get married earlier rather than later, and are telling friends it will most likely be next year.”
The 36-year-old actress hinted at the possibility of starting a family in the near future, after several of her friends including Duchess Meghan – who is expecting her first child with husband Prince Harry – are expecting children.
She said: “I just have a few of my friends who are having babies right now and I’m like, ‘God I need to catch up!'”
And Priyanka says their pledge to get married has brought them even closer together, saying they now feel more like ”family”.
She said: ”I’m excited. It’s a very different feeling. I never realised that having a boyfriend and having a fiance are completely different.
”It just feels different. There’s gravitas. You feel like family, which is just so different.”

Duchess of Sussex rushed from market amid ‘crowd management fears’

OHMYGOSSIP — The Duchess of Sussex has been rushed out of a busy market in Fiji amid fears over “crowd management issues”.
The 37-year-old royal – who recently announced she’s expecting her first child with the Duke of Sussex – made a visit to the venue on Wednesday (24.10.18) in order to learn more about a UN Women project called Markets for Change, but after just eight minutes, her security team decided to rush the Duchess out of the crowded area.
Initially, the Palace claimed that the decision was taken because of “uncomfortable conditions” – but later, it was conceded that “crowd management issues” was the reason behind the abrupt exit.
Despite this, the Duchess – who was known as Meghan Markle prior to her marriage in May – still managed to meet the four women she’d originally intended to.
Meanwhile, in her first speech on the royals’ ongoing tour, the Duchess stressed the value of education and also spoke of her own struggle to afford to attend university.
The former ‘Suits’ actress – who attended Northwestern University in the US – said that the “journey of higher education is an incredible, impactful and pivotal one”.
She continued: “I am also fully aware of the challenges of being able to afford this level of schooling for many people around the world – myself included.
“It was through scholarships, financial aid programmes and work-study – where my earnings from a job on campus went directly towards my tuition – that I was able to attend university. And, without question, it was worth every effort.
“Everyone should be afforded the opportunity to receive the education they want, but more importantly the education they have the right to receive. And for women and girls in developing countries, this is vital.”

Cardi B claims Nicki Minaj’s fans ‘love’ her

OHMYGOSSIP — Cardi B thinks Nicki Minaj’s fans “love” her.
The 26-year-old rap star and Nicki, 35, have become involved in a very public feud over recent months, but Cardi still believes that Nicki’s fans – who are collectively known as Barbz – are fans of her music, too.
Speaking on Instagram Live after her new song ‘Money’ leaked online, Cardi explained: “We tried to retract it, but you know the Barbz. They always posting me, they always post everything I do.
“They claim they hate me, but they really love me, because they be on my page before my fans.
“Everything that I do, they be on it before my fans.
“So clearly, that seems like love to me, seems like you love me, so it’s like, ‘F**k it.’ I can’t retract it, I might as well put it out.”
Cardi – who has a three-month-old daughter called Kulture with her husband Offset – and Nicki were recently involved in an altercation during New York Fashion Week.
And Cardi subsequently blamed Nicki for sparking their feud.
She said: “For a while now she’s been taking a lot of shots at me. I spoke to her twice before, and we came to an understanding. But she kept it going.”
Cardi also accused her rap rival of liking a tweet that questioned her parenting skills.
She explained: “I was going to make millions off my Bruno Mars tour, and I sacrificed that to stay with my daughter.
“I love my daughter. I’m a good-ass f**king mom. So for somebody that don’t have a child to like that comment? So many people want to say that party wasn’t the time or the place, but I’m not going to catch another artist in the grocery store or down the block.”

Khloé Kardashian focused on daughter

OHMYGOSSIP — Khloé Kardashian is “very much focused” on her daughter True.
The ‘Keeping Up With The Kardashians’ star isn’t in a rush to head back to Cleveland to be with Tristan Thompson – who was seen seemingly kissing another woman just days before Khloe gave birth to their daughter True – and she “very much seems over” him.
A source told People magazine: “She very much seems over Tristan. Not sure how they went from fine to being apart for weeks, but Khloé is doing great. It’s amazing to see what a great mom she is and how much she enjoys it. She is very much just focused on the happy things in her life. True, of course, makes her the happiest. It doesn’t seem to bother her that she isn’t with Tristan in Cleveland. She seems to know what she wants in her life right now. And it definitely doesn’t seem like she wants to be with Tristan.”
Meanwhile, an insider recently claimed that Khloe “still struggles” with the cheating allegations.
It was claimed that the incident has eroded the reality star’s trust in Tristan.
A source said: “Khloe has seemed emotional. Her feelings about Tristan cheating is something that she is still dealing with. She has good weeks when she is fine about it and weeks when she is upset about it. It’s of course difficult to trust someone 100 percent who cheated days before he was about to become a dad. Khloe still struggles with this sometimes. She wants to move back to Cleveland, but she isn’t sure what date she is [going]. The move is postponed for now.”

Halsey and G-Eazy split again?

OHMYGOSSIP — Halsey and G-Eazy have reportedly split again.
The on and off again couple have called time on their romance, just a few months after they reconciled their relationship.
A source told People magazine: “It’s over again for now.”
The news will come as a shock to some as G-Eazy recently revealed he feels inspired by his girlfriend and her vocal talents.
Describing her as “an incredible artist”, he shared: “She’s really inspiring to watch work. I’ve been blessed and fortunate enough to get in the studio with a lot of artists I admire, but she’s one of those that when you hear her voice come through live from the booth, it hits you right away. It’s pure.”
It was previously revealed that Halsey and G-Eazy were “working on their relationship”.
A source said at the time: “[Halsey and G-Eazy have] been in touch since their split and are working on their relationship. They consider each other family and are on good terms now, but not fully back together. They knew they were both going to be out and about after the VMAs and it was planned to meet up after they made the rounds at the VMAs after-parties. They wanted to do their own things during the night and didn’t want to cause too much of a commotion by them being together, but left hand in hand after the party and went back to G-Eazy’s hotel to continue the night. They are being casual right now, but are definitely working on things. They are both hoping they can have a healthy friendship, if anything.”

Gerard Butler wants his movies to inspire

OHMYGOSSIP — Gerard Butler wants his movies to inspire.
The ‘Hunter Killer’ star feels it is important the this roles inspire people to change their life – whether it is to be more “courageous” or to “stand up for themselves”, for example.
He said: “In some ways they are inspiring in that kind of way that humans want to go and be entertained and come out and go, ‘Yeah, I want to be more courageous’, or, ‘I want to stand up for myself’, or, ‘I want to find something that’s worth sacrificing for.’ That’s ultimately one of the reasons why I like making these big movies.”
And the 48-year-old actor loves it when an action film just “works”.
He added to Uproot: “We always try our best but sometimes you make a movie and you go, ‘OK, that really didn’t work’. But, when it works, honestly, there is nothing better. There is nothing better than walking into a room and feeling the excitement of somebody who has watched a 300 or a Hunter Killer. Because there are always high stakes and there are always big ideas. You make these movies with original content, original ideas – not some intellectual property – and you’re therefore dangling a little more, you know? You could fall on your a**. So, therefore, when it works, it’s so exciting because of those high stakes. When they work they are incredibly exciting, thrilling, fun.”

The 71-year-old musician – who was joined at the premiere by the likes of Rami Malek, who plays Freddie in the movie, and bandmate Roger Taylor – told Sky News: “I feel very over-excited.
“We’re like children … because of course you expect it because we’ve been on this journey, we’ve seen the film a lot, but this moment is very special.
“It’s a one-off. Who would ever think this would happen in their lifetime?”
Brian is played by Gwilym Lee in the film and he was impressed by the actor’s performance.
He said: “My kids saw the trailer and they said, ‘Dad, you must have done the voice for him.’
“I said no, he’s an actor, he’s a great actor. He really is.”

A source told The Sun newspaper: “Having Robbie on the panel has been a huge coup, but obviously backstage everyone has been talking about whether or not he’s going to sing at some point.
“It seems a shame to have one of the biggest pop stars on the planet sat there and not hear him, so they’ve been plotting a surprise for the end of the series.
“It’s a while since they got together and nobody is ­completely sure when it was going to happen for the anniversary so it’ll be a massive moment.”

Georgia Steel in the mix for Celebs Go Dating

OHMYGOSSIP — Georgia Steel is “in the mix” for ‘Celebs Go Dating’.
It may only be a few days since the ‘Love Island’ star’s explosive split from Sam Bird, but she is already being eyed up for the dating show.
A source told The Sun’s Bizarre TV column: “Georgia is in the mix for the next series of Celebs Go Dating. She met with bosses just a day after her romance with Sam ended, which will definitely come as a shock to him. Celebs is a show Georgia would love to do especially now she’s back on the market – she didn’t think twice before meeting producers. She is just the type of character they look to have on the show; she’s flirty, cheeky and doesn’t hold back on what she has to say.”
Meanwhile, Sam recently admitted he felt “heartbroken” by the split, after Georgia admitted to staying over at her exes house, although she insisted she slept in the spare room.
He said: “I feel heartbroken; the last three months have been a total lie. I was so shocked she would do that to me. She’s been living a double life. I’ve never been cheated on before. I told her ‘you aren’t loyal’ and she still tried to claim she was but I kept saying you’ve cheated, cheating is cheating.”

Nile Rodgers’ therapeutic music

OHMYGOSSIP — Nile Rodgers’ music is “therapy” for his mother, who is battling Alzheimer’s.
The CHIC star has revealed that he and his mom Beverly like to discuss his music in a bid to help her and himself through the difficult time.
He said: “My mom is dying right now from Alzheimer’s. It’s taken somewhat of a toll on me mentally … So after starting to visit her more I realised that – and this was something I found really hard to come to terms with – her reality and the rest of the world’s reality are so totally different to one another. And the most, or at least what feels like the most, kind way for me to help my mother live the rest of her life the best way it can be lived is to enter her reality, because I can always leave but she can’t leave. So when she starts talking about the same thing over and over again I act like it’s the first time we’ve said it.
“I’ll say, ‘Hey mom, I’ve got a new record,’ and it doesn’t mean anything to her. I mean, it’ll mean something to her in the moment. She’ll say, ‘Really, wow.’ ‘Yeah, it’s the first time we’ve had a Top 10 since 1979.’ ‘Oh my God, darling that’s fantastic, where did you do that?’ ‘Well, we did it in the UK.’ ‘So, what’s going on now sweetheart?’ Oh well, mom it’s the first time we’ve had a Top 10 since…’ so it’s like that, you know?”
And the 66-year-old musician doesn’t know if it’s “comfort” for his mother or not.
He added: “I don’t know if it’s actually comfort. I don’t wanna judge or even guess as to what it is. All I wanna do is let her be in it, just let her be there.”
