ONE OF THESE BABIES WILL BE RAISED QUITE WELL: The current "Top Story" at People.com is headlined "5 Things To Know About Kevin Federline's Pregnant Girlfriend." For those of us who are not Kevin Federline or members of his family, is there actually anything we need to know about this story beyond the two key points established in the headline (i.e., that Kevin Federline has a girlfriend and that she is pregnant)? Even that may be too much.
Moving from celebrities no one likes to celebrities we actually like quite a bit, all credit to Elizabeth Banks for managing to welcome a son to the family through a surrogate without making it into a tabloid extravaganza. No tabloid pictures, and the public announcement came through a tweet and a blog post expressly stating that there will be no such pictures. Class act all the way around.
I assume John Dorian was not the father re: Elizabeth Banks.
ReplyDeleteCongrats to Elizabeth Banks! It's brave to talk so openly about her infertility when none of us has any right to know but now, at least, people won't be hateful about her not carrying for vanity reasons. I hope.
ReplyDeleteAs someone who has suffered through infertility (and now has a couple of rugrats thanks to the miracle of modern science) I am always pleased to see someone who has gone through the heartbreak of infertility and come out the otherside with what they wanted. I am glad she was both able to keep things private for the sake of her family and got to share the news to the world, if only to make other women know they will come out on the other side too.
ReplyDeleteClassy classy classy, though slightly easier to do because she's not really A list. But hard to play Avery pregnant while having trouble with it yourself...
ReplyDeleteAnd Felix is a lovely name, especially since I'm all in favor of good Latin names. Sadly, I'll never be able to convince the lovely wife that Lucius Cornelius Sulla Finn is a good name.
ReplyDeleteMore congrats, and kudos on classiness, to Elizabeth and her husband Max. As an undergrad at Penn, I did not know Elizabeth, but I did know Max, who was a fraternity brother a couple years behind me. I have not kept in touch, but at the time, I believed Max to be -- here's where Chris on P&R would say "literally" -- the menschiest mensch who ever mensched. Just a great guy, and well deserving of this happiness.
ReplyDeleteKevin Federline's latest baby mama is from my hometown, and even the locals are annoyed by all the hoopla.
ReplyDeleteCongrats to Elizabeth Banks and family!
