Currently Booming: Rosie O'Donnell's Ex Michelle Rounds Attempted Suicide Over Custody Battle

It has been awhile since we have heard anything about Rosie O'Donnell's nasty split from and ongoing custody battle with former love, Michelle Rounds. For months Rounds was publicly accusing her ex of being an unfit parent to their adopted 2-year-old daughter, Dakota. Rounds alleged that O'Donnell drank and smoked too much weed to properly care for a toddler. The two reportedly had a bitter fight on Tuesday and later that even first responders had to knock down Rounds hotel room because of an alleged suicide attempt.

According to a report by Radar Online, Rounds checked into a DoubleTree hotel in Nanuet, near O'Donnell's home and reportedly mixed pills and wine until she was unconscious. A concerned friend called for help and Rounds was transferred to Nyack Hospital where she stayed until her release late on Wednesday. Thankfully, Dakota was not with Rounds at the time of the incident.

This sad instance, which has been called a "cry for help" came after months of fighting with her ex. Ironically, watching O'Donnell publicly move on with Tatum O'Neal can't be easy either. True to her character, O'Donnell is moving super fast and O'Neal is reportedly already living in her brand new home.

Do you think that Rounds taking such desperate actions will lead to a more civil court battle? Or is O'Donnell going to use this as proof that Rounds is the unfit parent and not her?

You would think that with all that Rosie O'Donnell has going on in her personal life, she would want to keep a lower profile. Her eldest daughter just went to live with her birth mother, Rosie is locked in a custody and divorce battle with her most recent ex and she also is dealing with some reported health issues. In the midst of all of that, Rosie has embarked on a new romance with Tatum O'Neal, a pairing that many of her friends are reportedly against. Rosie needs some stability in her life somewhere and friends fear that O'Neal is just using her to get attention and if that's the case, well, it's working.

According to a new report by Radar Online, a production company has expressed interest in doing a reality show with the couple of only two months.  “Tatum had done a reality show with her dad, Ryan, and even though it caused headlines for all the wrong reasons, she loved doing it. Rosie, however, is very hesitant to do a reality show because of all the turmoil going on in her life. She’s facing health problems, an ongoing custody battle and legal issues with her adopted daughter, Chelsea. But Tatum has been pushing for the show to give Rosie a platform to reveal her side of the story." explains the source.

Rosie is known for leaping into relationships and making them super serious in a short period of time so this one with O'Neal isn't exactly surprising. She has even referred to the actress as her "new wife" after only several weeks together. Are Rosie's friends right? Is this romance going to end up a huge rebound disaster? Worse yet, will it be filmed and plastered on television as a new reality show? Do you think that Rosie will cave in and actually do it?

Are Rosie O'Donnell and Tatum O'Neal Dating?

In the six months since Rosie O'Donnell made a hasty exit from ABC's The View, she may have grabbed more headlines than she would have had she stayed with the troubled chatfest. Unfortunately, most of Rosie's attention has been pretty negative, between her going through a messy divorce from Michelle Rounds and dealing with a custody battle, while her oldest daughter, Chelsea recently ran away and was later found in a drug den. The most recent nugget has the controversial star possibly dating Tatum O'Neal.

According to Page Six, the two were recently spotted sharing, "an intimate dinner at Greenwich Village restaurant Da Silvano last month, and attended Broadway show “Hamilton,” where O’Donnell was heard joking O’Neal is her “new wife.” But O’Donnell’s spokeswoman, Cindi Berger, insists the women are not romantically involved."

While Rosie's team is denying that the two are an item, let's face it, this doesn't seem like the best time in the world for her to be publicly dating anyone. Her personal life is a mess and a big part of that mess involves her kids so bringing someone new into the chaos wouldn't necessarily make sense. Rosie is wise enough to know this, so do you think that she and O'Neal really are an item and simply not making it officially public yet? O'Neal recently said in an interview that she has been favoring dating women lately and she looked forward to a new romance. Do you think that Rosie is the woman for her?
