Looking to be working through their differences, Billy Ray Cyrus has called off his divorce and reunited with his wife Tish. The "Achy Breaky Heart" singer filed legal papers to end the 17-year union in October of 2010, also blaming the success of his daughter Miley's Disney show "Hannah Montana" for "destroying" his family. But Cyrus has been working hard to repair the family fall-out since his GQ magazine comments caused a tabloid storm - and he now reveals things are back on track with his wife and his kids. In an appearance on U.S. talk show The View, due to air on Friday (March 18), the 49 year old says, "I've dropped the divorce. I want to put my family back together... Things are the best they've ever been." As for reconnecting with daughter Miley after publicity-caused tension, papa Cyrus told, "I feel like I got my Miley back. I feel like we're the daddy and daughter we were before Hannah Montana."Source
Ashlee Simpson may have found her rebound man -- who just happens to be a friend of Pete Wentz, her soon-to-be ex-husband. Photos at E! News show Simpson, 25, shopping in L.A. with rocker Craig Owens, who holds her close with his arm around her shoulders. (Last month, the singer-actress filed for divorce from Fall Out Boy's Wentz, 31, after nearly two years of marriage.) According to E!, singer-songwriter Owens, 26, is the former frontman for the punk group Chiodos, and is now signed to Wentz' s record label, Decaydance. This summer, Owens will tour with a new group Wentz helped organize, D.R.U.G.S. (Destroy Rebuild Until God Shows). So what does Wentz think of his protege's new potential romance with his future ex-wife? "Pete did a lot for this guy," a Wentz source says. "Craig was in another band and got kicked out. Pete found Craig, built a band around him and signed him. He's shocked at how this guy is repaying him." Counters a source close to Simpson: "Ashlee and Craig are longtime friends. They have spent some time together, and he is comforting her throughout this difficult time."WOW! Keep your grass cut REAL SHORT, Dancers! You just never know.
From "Woo-hoo!" to "Whaa?" Devoted Real Housewives of Orange County fans weren't exactly shocked when veteran star Vicki Gunvalson filed for divorce from husband Donn last October, after much onscreen tension between the pair. A bit more shocking: Today, nearly five months after that split announcement, the estranged spouses, who wed in 1994, remain under one roof. "We're still living together," Vicki, 48, told UsMagazine.com on Friday. But the Bravo star and insurance executive was quick to clarify that a reconciliation isn't a possibility. "We're [mediating] our divorce," she told Us. "We still have our finances co-mingled [and] joint accounts." And, she added, they lead completely separate lives, and that Donn plans to move out within the next few months. "We don't know where each other are, ever. He's always going to be in my life." Isn't that a little awkward? "It's very hard -- but the reality is, he's not fighting for me, he's not saying, 'Babe I want you back.' He's saying 'Babe, I wish you well.'" What went wrong? "My love tank has truly been empty for many many years," Gunvalson said. "We stopped communicating. My happiness came from my work and my children," she explained of Michael and Brianna, her grown kids from her first marriage. "I didn't go to Donn for friendship or companionship, and he didn't with me either." Things came to a head late last summer, when the couple didn't speak or see one another for six weeks. Finally, during a blowout family argument back at home, Vicki handed him a letter she'd written weeks before. "I said, 'Here, I want a divorce...I'm done.' It was the hardest day of my life." But the couple remain on cordial terms. Before Vicki headed out to NYC for promotional duties, Vicki noted, "He said 'Break a leg, I love you, hope you're safe in New York.'"Vicki, I have some advice for you! If you didn't degrade the man constantly (ESPECIALLY on national TV), he would probably wanna fight for his marriage!
Girl, get your $$$ and have fun! TRUST that karma is lurking around the corner....they won't last!"I feel like I'm losing my best friend. Kelsey and I spent 14 years together and built a great life for ourselves. We have two children, and they mean the world to me. "I do wish him well and I'll miss him. We spent many great years together and we've been through a lot. But at the end of the day, he's made his decision and I'll be fine. I've got a great support group, real and true friends and I'm moving forward with my life. I was sad and wanted to make things work but I'm completely fine now. I'm moving on."
