Vanessa Baker — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 02:13:16 +0000

Brandi Glanville, the soon-to-be ex-wife of CSI: Miamistar Eddie Cibrian, is requesting full financial support from the actor, whom she says forced her to quit working when they were dating, reports E! News.

The former model estimates her monthly expenses to be around $49,000. She also wants $50,000 for legal fees and sole use of their home.

Their two sons have been with her approximately 90 percent of the time since the pair split, and Glanville is requesting, when they do visit their father, they don’t spend time with his significant other, LeAnn Rimes.

“I don’t want LeAnn to meet my kids,” she said. “I don’t think it is the right time. It is way too soon. They’re already so confused as it is.”

A source says Cibrian disagrees, and wants Rimes to meet Mason, 6, and Jake, 2. “He thinks it’s time for the kids to meet LeAnn,” the source said.

We are not saying that we are mind readers or we can see into the future, however we are not surprised by Avril Lavigne’s break up from her rocker husband Deryck Whibley. As Jordan explained in our XM radio show last week, we had an opportunity to interview Avril a few weeks ago when she was promoting the launch of her new clothing line, Abbey Dawn. We also saw Deryck there and had a quick interview with him. Although Deryck tried to be as courteous as possible, it was more than clear that he had no interest in being there, and there was something else happening behind the scenes. He just stood in the corner with a pissed off look. You can check out the interview below. Nevertheless we wish both Avril and Deryck the best of luck.

After a rocky relationship complete with arrests, accusations of drug abuse and public disputes, singer Amy Winehouse has officially split from Blake Fielder-Civil.

According to The Associated Press, neither Winehouse nor Fielder-Civil were present at the family Court hearing where a judge granted the divorce petition. After six weeks and a day the divorce of Winehouse, 25, and Fielder-Civil, 27, becomes final.

The British couple met at a bar in London, England, back in 2005. They wed at a simple ceremony in Miami in 2007, but spent most of their seemingly-troubled married life apart after Fielder-Civil was arrested on an assault charge that sent him to jail.

The Singer’s father, Mitch Winehouse, has constantly accused Fielder-Civil — a music video production assistant — of introducing his daughter to heavy drugs.

The couple’s troubled relationship spawned numerous tabloid headlines around the world.

Mel Gibson attended Mass at the Roman Catholic church he had built in 2005 this past Sunday. His wife was nowhere to be found. “Well,” he was overheard saying, “she’s filed for divorce.” PEOPLE reports.

Last Thursday his wife of 28 years, Robyn Gibson, signed divorce papers seeking joint custody over their 9 year old son Thomas. Apparently the couple has been officially separated since August 26, 2006, about a month after he was charged with a DUI. He started sobering up after his roadside incident in which he made anti-Semitic remarks that he later apologized. Robyn’s divorce paper says the date of separation as “to be determined.”

Gibson and his wife attended church together on Palm Sunday, just four days before Robyn signed the divorce papers, PEOPLE reports. In addition to Thomas, the Gibson’s have six older children: Milo, 19, Louis, 21, William, 24, twins Edward and Christian, 26, and daughter Hannah, 28.

Jodie Sweetin filed papers Wednesday for legal separation from her husband of 16 months, Cody Herpin.

The couple recently announced that they were working on a reality show together, which Sweetin said, at the time, was going to follow the couple and their new baby, now 7 months, Zoie.

According to People, Herpin was “dumbfounded” and said that Sweetin took Zoie and left the couple’s home. He expressed concern, in part, because of Sweetin’s former addiction to methamphetamine. Sweetin entered rehab in 2005 for the addiction. She met Herpin in May 2007, and they married just two months later.

Sweetin is best known for her role as Stephanie Tanner on the sitcom Full House.

The Hulk has won another battle against his opponent. Except this time, the pro wrestler’s victory took place in court against his estranged wife Linda Bollea.

According to E! News, a Florida judge has ruled that Hulk Hogan does not have to go through with the purchase of a $4.2 million Las Vegas condo, a property he agreed to buy with Bollea back in 2005.

“We are thrilled that the judge did not require us to continue to engage in the folly of purchasing a $4.2 million condo at a time when we should be considering other matters,” Hogan’s attorney, David Houston, told E! News.

“We believe the court injected a dose of reality into a contested litigation and feel that we have started down the road to resolution.”

Bollea’s attorneys have yet to comment on the ruling.
