Jen’s Met the Kids!

Jan 27, 2010 by BabySwags

*EXCLUSIVE*

“One week in late March, I overheard security saying that Brad was meeting with [Jen] in Central Park before  going to see Angelina on the set,” housekeeper Anna Kowalski tells In Touch.

While Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie may have managed to trick the world into thinking everything is fine, In Touch has exclusive details that making the decision to leave was a long time coming for Brad, who friends say has been miserable for months.

But as In Touch can now exclusively reveal, Brad’s growing feelings for Jen helped ease his pain and back in March, he took great pains to arrange a secret meeting in NYC’s Central Park for Jen, himself, and his daughters Shiloh and Zahara. “One week in late March, I overheard security saying that Brad was meeting with [Jen] in Central Park before going to see Angelina on the set,” former Waldorf-Astoria employee Anna Kowalski tells In Touch. “He took Shiloh and Zahara in the car with him.” The whole thing was very carefully planned, says an insider, with Brad driven to a location near the Mount Sinai School of Medicine on 5th Avenue, where he met Jen at her SUV in the park. No doubt it was nerve-wracking. At the time, the last thing he wanted was for Angelina to fi and out he’d introduced Jen to their children. But for the formerly married couple, it was well worth it. “Zahara was asleep in the car with the driver, so Jen only got to talk with Shiloh,” says a friend of the actress, who adds that during the 20-minute meeting, Jen was moved to tears seeing her ex-husband’s adorable daughter. “She said that all that had happened in their past seemed to melt away that day,” says the friend, who adds that after the meeting, Jen remarked that she’s “proud of Brad and thinks he’s a great dad.” Even though Brad wasn’t happy with the way his life was going with Angelina, the friend says, Jen said, “at least he had this beautiful little girl.” And for Jen, who had been trying for children with Brad when they were married, that was a lot.

Meet the Millionaire Matchmaker Baby

Jan 23, 2010 by BabySwags

When Destin Pfaff’s now-fiancée, Rachel Federoff, asked if she could work with Destin at Patti Stanger’s Millionaire’s Club, the idea took some getting used to. But now Destin might have to come to terms with another family member joining the matchmaking team. The couple’s 5-month-old son, Sin Halo Jude, seems fated for camera time on The Millionaire Matchmaker. “Every time the baby sees Patti, he shrieks like a banshee,” Destin tells Life & Style. “She’s great with him. Sin makes her want a baby.”

Rachel, 32, and Destin, 35, are just ecstatic that their baby boy is finally healthy. Sin was delivered via emergency cesarean section after the umbilical cord wrapped around his neck and stopped his fragile heart. He also later suffered from digestive problems. “It was scary and hard, but we were lucky,” says Destin. “Now he’s tough as nails — beautiful and perfect!” As for his unusual name, “My parents hate the name Sin Halo,” Rachel tells Life & Style. “But it’s the yin and the yang — everybody has a little good and bad in them.”

Britney Spears: Hotel Obsession

Jan 21, 2010 by BabySwags

After traveling the globe for months, most people would be thrilled to sleep in their own bed. But Britney Spears, who recently wrapped her Circus tour, has been ditching her LA home for the swanky Mondrian hotel. “She said she misses the environment of a busy hotel when she stops touring,” an insider tells Life & Style, noting that Brit has been constantly spotted in the hotel in the past two months. “She seems to love having people around her. She’s friendly and interested in everybody — she started talking to one guest and even jokingly offered to sing at the woman’s wedding!”

One perk of hotel living: the Mondrian’s Agua Spa and fitness center, where the pop star has been logging some serious time. “She ran on the treadmill for about an hour and did sit-ups for about 15 minutes straight,” celebrity publicist Todd Shapiro, who spotted Brit in the gym on Jan. 5, tells Life & Style. Another insider reveals that Brit has been able to mix some fun into her workouts. “She’s obsessed with Family Guy and was doing Stewie impressions in the gym,” says the insider. “She even ordered chicken wings to be delivered to the gym, which raised eyebrows. She asked to replace the buffalo sauce with sweet chili.”

Real Housewife Tamra: “I never cheated on my husband”

Jan 21, 2010 by BabySwags

When Tamra Barney’s husband, Simon, filed for divorce on Jan. 7, no one was more surprised than the Real Housewives of Orange County star herself. But that wasn’t the harshest blow: In the divorce papers, Simon accused his wife of 11 years of committing “acts of disloyalty and infidelity.” A saddened Tamra sat down with Life & Style’s on Jan. 14 to share her side of the story — and set the record straight about whether she cheated — in her first print interview since news of the split broke.

“I have never been unfaithful,” Tamra tells Life & Style. Does she have any idea whom Simon thinks she may have cheated with? “A couple of years ago, a boyfriend I dated for five or six years before meeting Simon called me,” Tamra says. “We just talked,” she stresses. But Simon looked through her call log and went ballistic after finding the ex’s name. “That happened two or three years ago,” she says. “But I think it marked the beginning of the demise of our marriage.”

Since then, viewers have watched as the marriage has slowly unraveled. Tamra’s biggest decision, however, happened off-camera. “We got into a huge argument on New Year’s Eve,” she explains. “We were out at a club and started fighting, and I just hit a wall. I couldn’t do it anymore. I needed to make a change.” A few days later, she moved into a two-bedroom apartment with the couple’s three children. Even then, Tamra still held out hope she and Simon might reconcile. “I thought we were having a trial separation,” she tells Life & Style. “I thought he agreed with me — then I get hit with divorce papers.”
