Terminator star Linda Hamilton has revealed that ex-husband James Cameron dumped her for Titanic.
In an exclusive interview with the Sun newspaper, Hamilton, 53, said: “Titanic was the mistress he left me for. He was the kind of man who really would rather be at work with the mistress than at home with the wife. That was hard to come to terms with.”
She added: “We had a very stormy relationship. He was all brain and work and I was all heart and living. He had guns next to his side of the bed and I had crystals and fertility symbols next to mine. We were just really not meant to be together.”
Hamilton also admits that she thought Cameron’s latest blockbuster Avatar, which he spent 15 years working on, would be a flop.
She said: “He had some other films he was going back and forth with. I thought Avatar was the lesser of them all.”
Supermodel Christie Brinkley is anguished that her divorce battle is bouncing back into a New York court.
Brinkley divorced Peter Cook more than 18 months ago in a nasty battle that brought his infidelity onto the public radar.
Cook, an architect, is now alleging Brinkley is in contempt of court for failing to hand over a passport belonging to their son Jack, 14, in time for a class trip to Egypt last November.
The couple must now appear before a court. But her representative indicated this was the last thing Brinkley wants.
Amy Jacobs said: “She’s really upset and embarrassed that this is going back to court. She absolutely did not want to go to court. Peter is literally dragging her to court. She had chosen to look the other way for quite some time when he violated the confidentiality agreement by talking to Barbara Walters and other media outlets.”
Steven Kuhn, a lawyer for Cook, says he had no other recourse.
Peter Caronia, a lawyer for Brinkley, said his client’s timing was off. He said: “Ms Brinkley ran to her dearest friend’s side who had just lost her mother and made the passport available to Mr Cook a few hours after the agreed upon delivery time. Mr Cook refused to drive five to 10 minutes out of his way to pick the passport up from Ms Brinkley’s residence.”
Eddie Cibrian has voiced his commitment to being a dad amid a mini-storm over the outing of his relationship with country singer LeAnn Rimes.
“From the outset I have made a conscious decision to try and keep this matter private and not discuss it in the press. While my wife and I are dissolving our marriage, we will work together to parent our two children.”
He says of sons Mason, 6, and Jake, 2: “I love my boys very much. I want only the best for them and am committed to being a devoted father.”
Cibrian of CSI:Miami is seeking a divorce from former model Brandi Glanville. Rimes has split with her husband Dean Sheremet.
Glanville appeared to be moving on when she said Rimes was welcome to Cibrian. She also said she sensed the attraction between the pair when they were filming Northern Lights.
Cibrian adds: “I will continue to be respectful and sensitive to this issue by not doing interviews about this ongoing private matter. I wish everyone would do the same.”
Anne Heche has launched a scathing attack on her ex-husband during a no-holds-barred interview on American TV.
The Spread star left the audience and late-night talk show host David Letterman in no doubt over her contempt for Coley Laffoon.
“Can you say ‘lazy ass’ on TV?” the 40-year-old asked when Letterman inquired about the father of her seven-year-old son, Homer.
She quickly retracted the insult, saying: “No, no, no. That’s terrible.”
The former couple’s high-profile feud continues six months after they reached a settlement in their divorce, which includes monthly child support payments to Laffoon for their son.
When asked what Laffoon does for a living, Heche paused before telling the audience: “He goes out to the mailbox and he opens up the little mailbox door and goes, ‘Oh! I got a cheque from Anne! Oh! I got a cheque from Anne! Yay!’ ”
Laffoon, who filed for divorce in February 2007 after five years of marriage, “is doing a lot for himself right now”, she added.
During their two-year divorce saga Heche accused Laffoon of craving “porn, poker and money”, while he fought back with claims she was mentally unstable.
Robin Wright Penn has opened up about her split from husband Sean Penn, saying: “I know what I don’t want… I have no regrets.”
The 43-year-old actress made her comments in US magazine More, which went to press before the couple announced their plans to divorce – for the third time in less than two years after two attempts to reconcile.
Wright Penn, who has been married to the actor since 1996, says: “I hit that crossroad a while ago – for Robin [pointing her hand at herself] the ‘I know what I don’t want’ was flashing neon lights.
“I have no regrets, I, we have two amazing children we raised together.”
For the time being it seems like the end of the road for the Penns – the couple who split up and got back together twice before they even walked down the aisle.
In December 2007, they both filed for divorce citing irreconcilable differences. But they withdrew their positions four months later – only for Sean Penn to file for a legal separation earlier this year.
The two-time Oscar winner then withdrew his filing in May, calling it an “arrogant mistake.”
But in August the couple announced that their plans to divorce were back on.
Now the mother-of-two says she is on a new path, ready to reignite her acting career and even to move from San Francisco – her home for more than a decade – back to Los Angeles.
This is happening just in a theoretical sense, but it won’t be long until we see Katie Price trying to off Peter Andre considering the rate she’s going at and the ideas she has. A source close to her related her latest plans against Peter Andre: “All she cares about is making sure she stays more famous than Pete. She sees her surgery plans as a big two fingers up to Pete. She’ll do anything to annoy him. She won’t even allow the name ‘Pete’ to be said while she’s in the room. She is out of control and flies into rages. She rants about how she’s going to ‘destroy’ Pete and how she’ll use ever power at her disposal to ‘ruin’ him. She’s like a woman possessed.” Now that’s not such an absurd perspective. Maybe Peter Andre should start getting in touch with God a little more and keep a priest around… who knows, it might actually do a whole lot of good.
Katie Price spent two hours at the offices of Sir Paul McCartney’s lawyer Fiona Shackleton, as she prepares to make her split with Peter Andre official.
The 31-year-old and hubby Peter Andre, 36, recently revealed they were separating after three-and-a-half years of marriage.
Shackleton represented Sir Paul McCartney when he split from ex-wife Heather Mills.
The glamour model, also known as Jordan, was pictured leaving the offices with her brother Daniel Price, before heading into the Mayfair Hotel.
Hubby Peter Andre was also spotted visiting his solicitors last week.
It was recently revealed that Katie has pulled out of a planned appearance on British chat show Friday Night With Jonathan Ross.
Jerry Hall’s ‘explosive’ memoirs will not be released in a tell-all book after a deal with publishers fell through, according to reports.
The 52-year-old model had signed a £1million deal with publishers HarperCollins and had reportedly claimed the book would be full of details of her life with Rolling Stones rocker Mick Jagger.
However, HarperCollins were reportedly frustrated after the book failed to provide the juicy details and Hall was then asked to rewrite the 304-page book for its September launch.
Hall was reportedly angry at having to return the publisher’s £500,000 advance on the deal and it was claimed the model wrote the book, Jerry Hall: Self-Portrait, to help her out of financial difficulty.
A spokesperson for Jagger said he had nothing to do with the breakdown of the deal and also denied the rocker said he would help Hall out financially if the project was abandoned.
The deal was allegedly brokered by her agent Ed Victor and a friend of Hall’s said to British newspaper the Daily Mail: "She spent £30,000 on lawyers sorting the contract out in the first place."
Monsters vs Aliens star Reese Witherspoon said her divorce from Ryan Phillippe was a "difficult time".
Reese, 33, split with husband Ryan, 34, in 2006 and they divorced the following year. The couple have two children together Ava, nine, and Deacon, five.
She said: "It was a difficult time. You feel saddened and isolated and disappointed. It’s painful and you feel things just don’t make sense. But then you get over it and move on."
Reese added to Britain’s more! magazine: "You take responsibility for what has happened and you try to learn as much as you can and become more enlightened as a person."
Reese has since found love again with Prince of Persia star Jake Gyllenhaal and they have been together for two years. But Reese said she isn’t sure if she will be getting married again.
She said: "I don’t really know how I feel about marriage. Obviously, I’m not that far enough out of being married to think about doing it again. You find a family with people who come into your life for a reason."
She added: "Things change. But your ability to love remains intact. Oh, I have a lot of hope for love. I do!"
