Marriage is hard. Divorce is contagious. These are things we know. Fact. Also fact is Rod Stewart has a lot of hair. And good sperm since he made a baby at 65 and has eight kids spanning two generations. I mean he did sing the song Forever Young (original by Bob Dylan though.) He also seems to have this marriage racket down despite being twice divorced before he hitched up with Penny Lancaster who is 26 years his junior. She's 42; he's a sprightly 68. Rod's dishing about he and his third wife broke up for two weeks. Two whole weeks! It was after a huge fight and when you are made of money like Stewart is, it's easy to say I'm going to the house in Tahiti and you stay here in the Hollywood hills and let's see if this marriage is going to work out.

Lucky for them it created yearning. Rod has some secrets on making his third marriage a true charm.

When my wife and I got the call that a birth mother had picked us to be parents, five words almost knocked us for an even bigger loop. “Bring whatever outfits you’ve purchased,” our caseworker told us. My wife and I looked at each other. Outfits? The adoption agency had been very clear about not buying anything while waiting to be placed. After all, no one knows how long the wait will be.

So when we got the call, we had nothing. No outfits, no crib, no bassinet. No bottles, no wipes, no diapers, no toys. That’s a huge disadvantage people who plan to adopt have versus people who plan to “get pregnant.” There are no baby showers to load you up with necessities ahead of time, one of several major differences with taking in a child you didn't give birth to.

This may sound strange, but some of my fondest childhood memories are of "sick" days spent home with my mom. Obviously, not the days when I was truly "sick sick" and feeling terrible. But the days when I was just a little bit sick, too sick to go to school or out to play ... maybe just with a slight fever. Those days I got extra special treatment from my mom. 

Kendall Jenner has managed to accomplish something no other Kardashian has done before -- she is keeping her private life just that ... private. It seems as though the model has had a boyfriend for the past year and never blabbed about it or threw him in front of those ever-present cameras.

It’s been a while since I shared a misadventure of a single sister in the city but this latest one is a winner. Last month, I went to a birthday celebration in Philly for my not-even-a-year-younger-than-me sister, another product of the infamous babymaker who is my father. Her friends and some of her other siblings crammed into the space she reserved at a Moroccan restaurant and I—all late and wrong since I cut my hair and can’t get the ish to look decent enough for public viewing—sat uncharacteristically quiet in my seat. Even chatterboxes like yours truly get introverted sometimes. Then again, the hair keeps me a little more sedated as of late. Out on the street, one of her other guests approached me to introduce himself. It seemed perfectly innocent, since he mentioned something about applying for a job in D.C., and since I live in D.C., I just figured homeboy was networking. 

It's true, you know. You don't just marry the man, you marry the whole family. So what happens when said family doesn't think you're the right choice? Just ask Miley Cyrus. Word is, Liam Hemsworth's brothers Chris and Luke staged an intervention to end his engagement.

It's just been a few short weeks since Robert Pattinson returned from filming The Rover in Australia. But Twi-hards are still panting over one important question: When are Kristen Stewart and Rob moving in together? Apparently the answer is, not until they smooth out their trust issues. Sources say the couple have looked at a few properties in Malibu. But Rob isn't in a hurry to pack up his things and move just yet.

The source told Look magazine, "I think they now need to take things slow and possibly get some counselling before moving forward again." Kristen is reportedly frustrated and sad, but understands her boyfriend needs time. But will they take their friend's advice and get counseling?

It seemed for awhile there that Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez were never ever EVER getting back together. Selena gleefully told David Letterman that she had made Justin "cry" and seemed ecstatic about the fact that she was single. Yeah, a little too ecstatic, I agree. But then strange things began happening -- we saw that Justin had a Selena screen grab on his cellphone and he tweeted a pic of the two of them together and, well, suddenly millions of 12-year-olds went into a deep depression. So Justin and Selena are back together -- at least for the time being. And Selena had some rather interesting things to say about her boyfriend in a new interview.
