Currently Booming: Gavin Rossdale Reportedly Cheated on Gwen Stefani for Years with Nanny

(Photo: Twitter)

There have been rumors swirling ever since Gwen Stefani confirmed that she was ending her 13-year marriage to Gavin Rossdale.  Finally, some of the details are starting to come out and if true, well, it's no wonder that Stefani doesn't care what people are saying about her budding romance with Blake Shelton. It seems that the rumors about Rossdale cheating are true and the situation was actually a whole lot worse than we might of anticipated because he was apparently busted with the couples' longtime nanny!

According to a report by Us Weekly, "The No Doubt frontwoman discovered explicit texts between Rossdale and the nanny — including nude photos of Mann and their plans to meet up for sex — on the family’s iPad. "The iPad was linked to Gavin’s phone. One of the other nannies discovered the exchange and told Gwen.” 

Mindy Mann is the name of Rossdale's alleged mistress and the two reportedly carried on an affair right under Stefani's nose for years! The Bush frontman reportedly denied it at first but eventually came clean and Stefani decided that way too much damage was done to try and fix their marriage. Ironically, this nugget has been revealed on the heels of Rossdale making it clear that he thinks his ex-wife got together with Shelton long before they had actually split.

Do you believe that Rossdale was hooking up with the nanny? Or has this story been conveniently planted to take some of the heat off of Stefani and Shelton?

Currently Booming: Gwen Stefani's Rep Confirms Romance with Blake Shelton

Photo: Twitter

It looks like those rumors about Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton dating are true! The two were spotted looking very cozy at several Halloween parties last weekend, leading to rampant speculation about a romance blossoming. It seems that they had no intention of keeping things private because Stefani's rep did confirm that the two are "dating", despite it being a very recent development.

Stefani and Shelton have always been flirtatious when working together on The Voice and now the speculation about when their relationship really started has begun. The two are recently divorced and both Gavin Rossdale and Miranda Lambert (their exes) seem to have questions about this new romance. Supposedly the chemistry between Shelton and Stefani raised eyebrows to the point that Lambert confronted her then-husband  about his behavior.

Are you surprised that these two have hooked up? Do you think that it'll amount to nothing more than a rebound fling or could Stefani and Shelton actually end up together for the long haul?

Currently Booming: Kaley Cuoco's Divorce Due to Ryan Sweeting's Drug Problems

(Photo: Twitter)

I told you last month that the split between Kaley Cuoco and Ryan Sweeting was likely to get messy and this morning we're starting to learn more about why their relationship crumbled. Not that they seemed like a couple that had a great shot at making it, especially when you consider that they were spotted fighting in public just weeks after swapping vows. Supposedly Sweeting has a temper and Cuoco requires a lot of attention, but what we didn't know was about a burgeoning drug problem.

According to a report by Page Six, “Kaley gave him an ultimatum: ‘If you don’t stay sober, then I’m done.’ He went to rehab, but when he came out he went missing for a period of time . . . like four days. Reports surfaced about Sweeting taking painkillers last year, but a source tells us his addiction issues began well before that. “He had some drinking issues in college and he was doing painkillers as early as 2013 at least,” said the source.

Supposedly, Sweeting just recently wrapped up another stint in rehab but it wasn't enough to save his marriage. Cuoco filed for divorce in September and Sweeting just filed documents of his own requesting that he be paid spousal support. Cuoco is expected to fight that request and it's starting to sound like she was very wise to insist on a prenup before they married.

Rumors have also swirled that Sweeting's team is looking for a loophole in the prenup so that he can go after a portion of that as well.  Do you think that he is going to try and take Cuoco for every last dime that he can get out of her?

Currently Booming: Ryan Sweeting Has Asked Court for Spousal Support in Divorce from Kaley Cuoco

(Photo: Twitter)

I told you a few weeks ago that this was going to happen. When Kaley Cuoco confirmed her split from Ryan Sweeting last month there was speculation that he would be looking for a financial payday and sure enough, it has happened. Sweeting finally filed his own documents in response to Cuoco's petitioning for divorce and in that filing he has indeed requested spousal support.

According to a report by E! News, "Ryan Sweeting has responded to Kaley Cuoco’s divorce filing. E! News obtained the court documents filed by the tennis player on Oct. 15 in Los Angeles Superior Court, and there were some notable points found in the legal document. Like Cuoco’s original filing on Sept 25, Ryan cites ever-so-popular “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the split. However, Sweeting states Sept. 25 (the day of Kaley’s filing) as the date of separation, as opposed to Sept. 3, which was what Cuoco stated in her filing.

The documents also show that the actress’ ex is asking for spousal support and requesting to terminate the court’s ability to award support to Kaley. In her papers, Kaley stated spousal support was payable and terminable as set forth from the couple’s prenuptial agreement, which they signed on Nov. 20, 2013. Ryan is also asking Kaley to pay for his attorney’s fees, something The Big Bang Theory star listed would be paid by both parties, per their prenup."

Supposedly, shortly before their New Year's Eve 2013 wedding Cuoco did have Sweeting sign a prenup but sources have also indicated that the tennis player is also looking for a loophole in that as well. Cuoco is worth millions thanks to her long running role on The Big Bang Theory and it sounds like Sweeting is pretty determined to at least try and get a chunk of it for himself.

It's not too surprising that this marriage seems to be ending in a mess. If anything, the fact that these two managed to make it work for nearly three years is what's really shocking!

Currently Booming: Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner Actively Trying to Repair Marriage

(Photo: Twitter)

Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner have been living under a microscope ever since announcing their split back in June. At first it looked like he was trying to convince her to give their marriage another shot, but then his hook up with their kids nanny seemed to initially sink any hope for a reconciliation. At least until now. A few days ago the two were spotted grabbing dinner during a very public, adult dinner date and now sources close to Garner and Affleck say that they are actively trying to repair their marriage.

"They are trying to make things work, but it’s really tough. They have been back and forth for years on this subject. There is still love there that they are trying to figure out. The kids are the great equalizer that they want to stay together for, so it’s a daily battle to see if it will work out. It is 50/50 at best,” a source tells Hollywood Life.

We already know that Garner reacted pretty badly when she realized her husband had hooked up with the nanny, but could she possibly be over it and willing to move on- with him? When Affleck and Garner first confirmed their split they really didn't seem like they were completely through with each other. While he obviously was momentarily distracted by the nanny, Affleck didn't exactly act like a free man publicly. Instead he was attached to Garner and their kids.

Is there a chance that these two will patch things up and actually end up back together again?

Currently Booming: Is Ryan Sweeting Demanding Spousal Support from Kaley Cuoco?

(Photo: Instagram)

Since confirming the bust up of her marriage to Ryan Sweeting last week, Kaley Cuoco has worked hard to put on a happy face for the paps that have trailed her. Fans of The Big Bang Theory actress have seen her partying with friends and bonding with her brand new horse as Cuoco clearly tries to insinuate that life is just fine. Sadly, behind the scenes it looks like she could be steadying herself for one heck of a court battle with Sweeting.

Cuoco is worth a reported $53 million and sources close to the former couple are now saying that in spite of being worth an estimated $2 million himself, Sweeting will likely file for spousal support. The couple did sign a prenup but the tennis pro is said to be looking for loopholes that would clear the path for a hefty pay day. Of course Cuoco is ready to fight him every step of the way.

It sounds like this divorce could easily turn very messy and a potential court battle like this could actually last longer than the marriage itself did. Gunning for Cuoco's cash sounds like a pretty big revenge move on Sweeting's part, doesn't it? Do you think that being married to her was so rough that he actually believes he deserves a windfall?



Currently Booming: Second Porn Star Claims Josh Duggar Paid Her for Sex

(Photo: Instagram)

It has been a minute since we have heard any new allegations about Josh Duggars bad behavior but it looks like someone new has come forward with a tale to tell. Duggar is currently sitting in a religious rehab, attempting to get help for what is starting to resemble a sex addiction. He has admitted to molesting his sisters and also cheating on his wife, Anna Duggar, with various women. According to a new report by In Touch magazine, a second porn star is starting to talk about her rough encounter with the shamed reality star.

There's little doubt the Duggar is likely guilty of whatever this woman will accuse him of and the real question lies with Anna. How much will be too much for the poor mother of four? While the Duggar family is dead set against divorce, it's worth mentioning that in the midst of all of the public humiliation, Anna has packed up her kids and moved back in with her parents in Florida.

Will she eventually choose to try and reconcile with her shady husband? Or do you think that once he is released from rehab Anna might instead decide to stay close to her parents instead? Will this latest woman coming forward be the final straw?

Currently Booming: Gwen Stefani's Divorce From Gavin Rossdale is Getting Ugly

(Photo: Twitter)
When Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale first announced their split back in August it sounded like things were about as amicable as it gets. The couple had been the subject of divorce rumors for years but always seemed to get through the waves of speculation together, at least until recently. As it turns out, not only have they opted for divorce, but Rossdale might just be looking for a nice payday to offset all of the years that he put his career on hold in favor of playing Mr. Mom to the couple's three kids.

According to a source for Radar Online, “Gavin is now demanding more than half of her fortune, He has complained that while Gwen was launching her successful clothing line, continuing her music career, and expanding her brand by appearing as a judge on The Voice, he stayed home with their sons. Gavin is even threatening to go to trial if he isn’t given a chunk of Gwen’s fortune. And he will ask for child and spousal support as well. Gwen is furious because at the outset of the divorce, Gavin said he wouldn’t go after her money. She is just kicking herself for not getting a prenup.”

As it turns out, Stefani is worth an estimated $120 million (to Rossdale's $20 million) and without a prenup, under California marital law Rossdale could clean house with 50% of her earnings during their marriage. Sources claim that Stefani would fight to prevent that because she intends to keep every hard earned penny that she can. While it looked like Rossdale's career has stalled it's really hard to say how much he might have earned if he hadn't stayed with the kids so that Stefani could continue working.

Are you surprised to hear that things are getting messy between these two?

Currently Booming: Kaley Cuoco Confirms Split From Ryan Sweeting

(Photo: Instagram)

I don't think very many people were surprised when Kaley Cuoco and Ryan Sweeting confirmed that they had split last weekend. Perhaps more surprising is the fact that the troubled duo's marriage actually lasted for more than 2.5 years! Cuoco and Sweeting swapped vows on New Years Eve 2013 after only a couple months of dating and the two seemed to face divorce talk within weeks.

While Cuoco, star of the long-running The Big Bang Theory spent the early days flaunting her marriage, she also spent most of the last year shooting down rumors of a split. Back in April she praised Sweeting on her social media and insisted that all of the negative press actually made them stronger. Apparently even if that statement was initially true, their marriage wasn't built to last.

Not long after confirming her plan to divorce Cuoco also took to social media to prove that she is doing just fine. She had a girls night out and also posted a (ringless) photo of herself with her new horse, ZaZa.

Are you surprised that Cuoco's marriage to Sweeting went kaput?

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?

Currently Booming: Ben Affleck's Dinner With Jen Garner Sparks Reconciliation Talk

(Photo: Twitter)
Could it be that Jennifer Garner is starting to reconsider going ahead with her plan to divorce Ben Affleck? The duo announced their split back in June and for several weeks were spotted together with their kids, looking more rock solid than ever. They had said that it was their intention to present a united front for their family and for once, it actually looked like a divorcing couple was serious about pulling off this heavy duty task. Then Ben got caught hooking up with the nanny and all bets were off.

It has been pretty widely reported that Ben would ideally really like to win back his wife. Ten years is a really long run for a Hollywood marriage and he is probably pretty lost without her anchoring him. Meanwhile, this break has likely felt like a huge relief for Jen after years of having to keep tabs on her man. When the nanny scandal broke she kept quiet but the anger was on her face whenever Jen was spotted out and about.

Supposedly Ben changed his phone number to prove to Jen that he was serious about cutting off contact with anyone that could be considered even a potential hook up. It looks like his approach might actually be working because last night Ben and Jen were spotted having a very public dinner together at NOBU in Malibu. While they have been seen in public together in recent months, it has always been with their kids. This dinner was a very adult evening out.

Do you think that Ben is starting to wear Jen down? Dinner in public certainly is intended to send a message because these two know that the paps are watching. Is a reconciliation actually a possibility for these two?

Currently Booming: Are Rosie O'Donnell and Tatum O'Neal Getting Their Own Reality Show?

(Photo: Twitter)
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?

Currently Booming: Are Beyonce and Jay Z Headed for Divorce? Rumors Persist.

(Photo: Instagram/Flaunt Magazine

It's that time again folks. Time for the typical rash of rumors to flare up about the state of Beyonce and Jay Z's marriage. While they were spotted looking pretty loved up while vacationing in Italy just a few days ago, many outlets are insisting that it was just another planned photo op to give the illusion that all is well between them. What we do know for sure is that Bey seems to be on verbal lock down because she hasn't granted an interview in over 18 months!

Some sources close to the couple say that the main reason that Bey isn't talking is because she is tired of pretending that everything is great in her marriage. There have been rumors for years that this marriage has been plagued with infidelity, primarily on Jay's end, and that it's hanging by a thread.

Last year there was rampant speculation that a divorce announcement would come by the end of the year but that obviously never happened. Do you think that there really is trouble between hip hop's royal couple? Or do you think that the rumors are just that and Bey and her man simply choose to keep things as private as possible?

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

(Photo: Twitter)
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?

Is Miranda Lambert Okay After Split from Blake Shelton?

I don't think that too many people were surprised to learn that Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert had decided to part ways but the fact that they were officially divorced the same day that the split was made public was a bit of a jolt. While Shelton has called this one of the most difficult events in his life, he seems to be acting like all is well. Lambert on the other hand, isn't even trying to hide her struggle.

Instead of pulling herself together and trying to create even an illusion that she's holding up okay, Lambert has been breaking down onstage during her live shows. Last Friday she performed in Minnesota and told the audience that she wished that she had been drinking all day and then said that she "deserved" to because she is newly divorced.

Ironically enough, it is Shelton's love of anything in a bottle that reportedly drove a wedge between the couple. Shelton has never really tried to hide the fact that he enjoys drinking and partying to excess and we're now hearing that he's not exactly the nicest guy when drunk. Lambert spent years partying hard with Shelton until deciding to get healthy about 18 months ago. Do you think that this split will send her spiraling out of control again too?

Are Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck Trying to Reconcile?

The break up of Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck has kind of dominated the celebrity news headlines this summer but I wouldn't pull the plug on these two just yet. Even rumors and unofficial confirmation that Affleck had hooked up with their nanny hasn't been enough to make Garner take off her wedding ring. In fact, just yesterday these two were spotted shopping together in Atlanta and their wedding rings were both still on!

We know that Garner and Affleck have continued to live together supposedly for the sake of co-parenting their three kids but the kids aren't making them keep their rings on. They are likely doing that because in spite of it looking like the marriage is finished, something still must remain between them.

Almost from the minute that they announced their split the media has wondered out loud if there was a chance for real reconciliation between Garner and Affleck. You have to admit, at least as of now their actions seem to be leaning in that direction more than a clear cut divorce. Do you think that they will eventually patch things up?

Tom Cruise Hasn't Seen Daughter Suri in Nearly Two Years

It has been four years since Katie Holmes swiftly pulled the plug on her marriage to Tom Cruise and while the anticipated custody battle between the two never actually played out that doesn't mean that all is well. In fact, rather than trying to control Suri Cruise, the daughter that he shares with Holmes, it seems that the actor has taken a completely different approach. Sources close to Holmes say that her ex hasn't spent time with their daughter in nearly 600 days!

While Cruise's excuse for not seeing his daughter for months on end was his heavy filming schedule in London, once he returned to the states there was absolutely no reunion. Even while promoting his new Mission Impossible flick in NYC where his daughter lives, Cruise has reportedly made absolutely no attempt to see her.

So what is keeping Cruise from bonding with his daughter? It's likely the fact that Holmes refuses to raise her under the rules and guidelines of Scientology. Since she is likely considered to be an "oppressive" person simply for turning her back on the teachings that would make her someone that Cruise would likely be discouraged from associating with. Unfortunately, Suri seems to be caught in the middle of that. Do you think that she's better off without Cruise controlling every aspect of her life, even now?

Did Blake Shelton Catch Miranda Lambert Cheating?

Blake Shelton has always been the subject of so many rumors. If you listen to the media then he has probably been cheating on now ex-wife, Miranda Lambert, from the moment they met. It doesn't help that he actually likes the bad boy image that he has and there have always been photos of him looking inappropriate with various women. But what about Lambert? Would she have cheated too? Well, that's what several sources are claiming.

Supposedly, Shelton got suspicious because Lambert's behavior had changed and so he hired a private investigator that caught her cheating with an employee. Shelton confronted her after catching her literally in the arms of another man and then he filed for divorce shortly thereafter. Apparently, it's one thing to hook up with a string of young blondes but when your wife strays, well that might be a problem.

Shelton and Lambert's divorce became final the day that it was announced to the public and she seems to be struggling more than he is. Is it because she feels terribly guilty about cheating? Or is Lambert sad because she was really hoping that the kinks in their marriage would be able to be fixed and to realize the opposite has just gutted her? Are you surprised that these two have split? Tell me your thoughts in the comments below!

Ben Affleck Struggling with Split From Jennifer Garner

It has been nearly a month since we learned that Jennifer Garner's marriage to Ben Affleck has come to an end and in the weeks that have followed, the two have seemed incredibly amicable. First they took a family vacation to the Bahamas to escape the media when the news first broke and then they spent several weeks together in Atlanta while Garner worked. Now we're hearing that they will be sharing Brooke Shields old home while renovations are done to their own estate. All the while Affleck has put up a solid front but now we're hearing that the actor is in fact a mess.

Apparently Affleck has been putting his acting skills to good use in order to appear as though he is handling everything just fine. A recent report by Radar Online seems to tell a different story. While he may not have wanted to give up his vices to be a better husband and father, Affleck also really didn't want to lose Garner either.

After years of watching Affleck's alcohol and gambling addictions flare up, as well as rumors of infidelity, Garner finally had enough and pulled the plug on their marriage. Now he is left to figure out how to handle his life without  the person that kept him most grounded for the last decade and Affleck isn't quite sure how to do that.

Some seem to think that a reconciliation might ultimately happen here. Obviously Affleck isn't happy about the split because if he was he would be living it up as a free man. Instead he does seem to be acting more like a man that wants his family back, don't you think?
