But did Esquire and People magazines curse the Kelly-Jeter affair? This year, Esquire named Kelly the Sexiest Woman Alive. Last year, Ryan Reynolds was named People's Sexiest Man Alive right before his split from wife Scarlett Johansson (who took home the Esquire honor in 2006). And get this: Jeter was also featured in the Sexiest People issue.
Is their breakup the media's fault? Or couldn't Kelly and Jeter handle that much sexy?
Love bites
* Actors
Melissa Gilbert and
Bruce Boxleitner have announced they will divorce after 16 years of marriage. Former "Little House on the Prairie" star Gilbert cited irreconcilable differences in the papers and will seek joint custody of her 15-year-old son
Michael (named after "Prairie" patriarch
Michael Landon) with Boxleitner, who most recently appeared in "Tron: Legacy."
It hasn't been a good week for the Gilbert clan in the name of love. Gilbert's sister, Sara Gilbert, a/k/a Darlene Connor of "Roseanne" fame, recently announced that she'll be separating from longtime partner Allison Adler after 10 years and two children together.
Gilbert currently co-hosts CBS' "The Talk." The show recently announced Kris Jenner (mother to Kim/Khloe/Kourtney/etc.) and comedian Sheryl Underwood will join the roundtable. Our condolences go out to Ms. Gilbert for having to spend time with Kris Jenner.
* Stars! They're just like us. Us Weekly claims that Ashlee Simpson is guilty of drunk-dialing soon-to-be ex-hubs Pete Wentz, begging the former Fall Out Boy to return to her, even though she's dating "Boardwalk Empire" actor Vincent Piazza. Simpson's rep denies the claim but, girl, we've been there. We've all been there.
