Twilight actor Peter Facinelli and Jennie Garth are living apart, say sources. Is their marriage on the rocks?

Peter Facinelli, Jennie Garth and kids

Peter Facinelli and Jennie Garth are one of the cutest Hollywood couples around, however, reports are surfacing that their relationship may be on the rocks.

The pair, who have been married since 2001 and have three daughters together, are on a "break" and living apart, reports Perez Hilton.

"Jennie is living in the family home in Toluca Lake and Peter has been renting a home in Santa Ynez," the insider says. "It's not looking good!"

The source goes on to say that "no third party is involved, but divorce is looking like the final outcome."

Our inside source contradicts these reports and tells SheKnows that they "would be shocked if something was wrong," and that the couple has actually rented out their Toluca Lake home to a "third party," indicating that Jennie is not living there.

Facinelli, who plays Edward's vampire dad in the Twilight saga, tweeted last month: "Playing the role of 'Dad' for the summer. Just touched down in Barcelona. Taking my kids on a cruise."

"Back in California today. Sad #EuroCruise is over," he tweeted on July 3rd.

Let's hope that the family that travels together stays together!

No, Melissa Rycroft and Jennie Garth will not be sharing reality TV screen time on CMT. Instead, the lovely ladies will each be getting their own show on the network that will put their real lives on display.

We know what you're thinking: How on Earth do Melissa Rycroft and Jennie Garth fit into the CMT format? They're not really country gals.

Well, keep reading to see what kind of reality shows these gals will be cranking out for the network.

According to a report via Entertainment Weekly, Melissa Rycroft will star in a CMT reality show that chronicles her move to Los Angeles and her quest for a Hollywood career, while maintaining a "long-distance" relationship with her husband Tye Strickland.

The series, no shocker here, is tentatively titled Melissa and Tye: A New Reality.

Jennie Garth's new show, I love Jennie, is going to feature the mother of three and her family as they move from Los Angeles to a "seven-acre farm in Central California."

According to the report, the shows will kick off in April, with eight episodes each.

Guess who is producing Melissa Rycroft's show? None other than the busiest man in Hollywood, Ryan Seacrest.

Seacrest and his production company, Ryan Seacrest Productions, along with Jayson Dinsmore and Eliot Goldberg will be a part of Melissa and Tye: A New Reality.

Ben Silverman, Jimmy Fox, Rick Ringbakk, Craig Armstrong, Peter Facinelli , Rob DeFranco, Jayson Dinsmore and Eliot Goldberg will executive produce I Love Jennie.

CMT isn't just about country music anymore. The network has been upping its game, but we're not sure how these ladies will fit into the format or if their lives will entice viewers to watch.

One thing we do know for sure, is that we love them both and will give them a chance -- will you?

"We love to read," Jodie Sweetin told Celebrity Baby Scoop. "We have story time every night before bed. It's about 20 minutes and they get to pick three books. Usually it's the same ones. We have Goodnight Moon. But Pajama Time by Sandra Boynton is their favorite. It's really cute and has a song -- it's our favorite cuddle book before bedtime. The baby loves her first-words-books. I'm a big reader myself, so I love reading to the girls. That's a really big thing for me."

You remember Sweetin from her role as Stephanie Tanner, the popular TV sitcom Full House. Sweetin has two daughters, Zoie and Beatrix.

"My family loves reading poems by Shel Silverstein together," Jessica Seinfeld told Celebrity Baby Scoop. "We've read his poems so many times that by now we can all recite them by heart. At bedtime, we read a few together, using different voices for each character. After reading time, we try to give each child about 20 minutes alone time with mom or dad, to talk about issues that have arisen at school or home that day. We always try to end the day with some big laughs."

Jessica Seinfeld is the author of two cookbooks about preparing food for your kids, founder of Baby Buggy, a non-profit that provides essentials for families in need in New York, and wife of comedian Jerry Seinfeld. The couple has three kids -- daughter Sascha and two sons -- Julian and Shepherd.

"There are different favorite books for each of our two girls for bedtime," Samantha Harris told Celebrity Baby Scoop. "Right now, each night, 10-month-old Hillary gets to cuddle before her bottle with Good Night Moon. It was one of my favorites growing up. Josselyn gets to pick two books to read while cuddled up in mommy and daddy's bed with us each night. Before we bring her to her room for lullabies, our favorites come from the Elephant & Piggie series by Mo Willems. I Broke My Trunk and Elephants Cannot Dance are at the top of the list. My husband, Michael, does the elephant's voice and I read the piggie's parts. It cracks up all three of us!"

Harris is a former Dancing with the Stars co-host, former ET correspondent and mother of two daughters.

Another Hollywood couple bites the dust: Jennie Garth and Peter Facinelli have split after 11 years of marriage, the couple confirmed today.

Jennie Garth Peter Facinelli

Jennie Garth and Peter Facinelli have filed for divorce after 11 years of marriage, the couple confirmed today.

In a joint statement they said, "While we have decided to end our marriage, we both share the same deep love and devotion to our children."

"We remain dedicated to raising our beautiful daughters together. We ask for privacy and respect during this time."

Did Twilight fame take a bite out of this hot Hollywood couple? They are not commenting on what caused the split, but rumors of trouble in paradise have been around for at least a year and heated up last summer with reports that Garth had moved out of the couple's home.

The former Beverly Hills, 90210 actress even made the ultimate statement and *gasp* unfollowed Facinelli on Twitter!

The pair wed in 2001 and have three children together: Luca Bella, 14, Lola Ray, 9, and Fiona Eve, 5. Garth was previously married to musician Daniel B. Clark from 1994-96, the same year that she met Facinelli on the set of their TV movie An Unfinished Affair.

Facinelli plays Carlisle Cullen in The Twilight Saga. Garth is best known for her roles as Kelly Taylor on the original Beverly Hills, 90210 and the revamped 90210, as well as Valerie Tyler on What I Like About You. We have a feeling Garth will be making out like a bandit in the divorce settlement, considering all that Twilight cash Facinelli has laying around.

Another day, another Hollywood breakup -- and another cheating scandal. Is Peter Facinelli's wandering eye the cause of his split from Jennie Garth?

Jennie Garth Peter Facinelli

Another Hollywood marriage destroyed by cheating? Not surprising, but no less sad. This time we're hearing that Jennie Garth split with Peter Facinelli because he was cheating -- and it happened while he was filming Breaking Dawn.

A source close to the sitch told Scallywag & Vagabond that Peter Facinelli got hot and heavy with a woman he met in Vancouver while filming the last of the Twilight series.

“Peter had been seeing another woman for quite some time. They tried to make it work for the sake of their children and Jennie played housewife for as long as she could but finally had enough.”

The source said that Facinelli enjoyed a "short, torrid affair" with the woman, described as a Canadian in her late 20s, but stopped short of confirming whether or not the two are still an item. "No comment."

Jennie Garth and Facinelli announced their split Tuesday after 11 years of marriage.

"While we have decided to end our marriage, we both share the same deep love and devotion to our children. We remain dedicated to raising our beautiful daughters together. We ask for privacy and respect during this time," the couple said in a statement.

The pair met in 1996 -- the same year Garth divorced her first husband Daniel B. Clark -- and have three daughters together: Luca, 14, Lola, 9 and Fiona, 5.

Reps for the two have not commented on the rumors of an affair.

Jennie Garth and Peter Facinelli deny that their split was caused by him cheating. Do you believe them, or is the Nurse Jackie actor just trying to save face?

Jennie Garth Peter Facinelli

Rumor has it the cause of the Jennie Garth and Peter Facinelli split is the usual culprit: cheating. But is that really the case? Despite inside sources saying yes, the soon-to-divorce couple is in full denial mode.

After rumors surfaced yesterday that Facinelli had an affair with a Canadian he met while filming Breaking Dawn, the former couple said it just ain't true.

"There are rumors out there which are completely untrue and hurtful to our family," the pair told People. "We just want to make it very clear -- there are no third parties involved."

Yesterday a source told Scallywag & Vagabond that Facinelli strayed while filming the final installments of The Twilight Saga.

"Peter had been seeing another woman for quite some time," the insider claimed. "They tried to make it work for the sake of their children and Jennie played housewife for as long as she could but finally had enough."

Rumors that the couple were on the outs surfaced as early as last July, when Garth was said to have moved out of the couple's Los Angeles home. They confirmed their split after 11 years of marriage earlier this week, saying, "While we have decided to end our marriage, we both share the same deep love and devotion to our children. We remain dedicated to raising our beautiful daughters together. We ask for privacy and respect during this time."

Jennie Garth says that she and her kids are doing just fine and dandy after her split from husband of 11 years Peter Facinelli -- and her new reality show couldn't have come at a better time.

Jennie Garth

Actress Jennie Garth has been through it all: Date rape, a cocaine addiction, nearly dying in a fire, saying goodbye to both Brandon and Dylan at the exact same time… Oh wait, that was her Beverly Hills, 90210 character Kelly Taylor. Um, we're sure Jennie Garth has been through a bunch of stuff, too. Now she's dealing with the disintegration of her marriage to Twilight star Peter Facinelli after 11 years -- but she says she and her kids are doing great, so there.

Garth and the kids are starring in a new reality show called Jennie Garth: A Little Bit Country which will see the clan -- minus Facinelli -- check out of Hollywood and take up residence on a farm in rural central California: A move the actress said couldn't have come at a better time.

Was Peter Facinelli cheating? >>

"I wanted to move out of the city for a while and something inside of me said, 'It's time.' I needed that sort of shelter, some things in my life have been transitioning. I just needed that," Garth said in an interview with Access Hollywood.

"We're doing great," she said. "My life is a little hectic right now and my personal life is kind of crazy. This is what I need and what the girls need right now, so it's perfect," she said, referring to the split from Facinelli.

So will the new show deal with the split and its aftermath?

"Yeah, I will say yes, but I hope that people tune in and find out," she explained, adding she had "no idea" a split was imminent when she signed on for the show.

"I am [a] country girl, that's in my heart. I grew up on a farm, so I needed to get back to my roots for a while," she added.

Jennie Garth: A Little Bit Country will premiere April 20 on CMT.

You know her best as Kelly Taylor from Beverly Hills, 90210, but Jennie Garth is also a newly single mom of three daughters -- Luca, 14; Lola, 9; and Fiona, 5 -- and going through a transitional time in her life. Garth took time out from her hectic schedule to talk to SheKnows about the Cheerios Spoonfuls of Stories program, her new TV show and being a single parent.

SheKnows Exclusive: Jennie Garth

You know her best as Kelly Taylor from Beverly Hills, 90210, but Jennie Garth is also a newly single mom of three daughters -- Luca, 14; Lola, 9; and Fiona, 5 -- and going through a transitional time in her life.

Garth took time out from her hectic schedule to talk to SheKnows about the Cheerios Spoonfuls of Stories program, her new TV show and being a single parent.

Cheerios Spoonfuls of Stories program

The Cheerios Spoonfuls of Stories program helps get books into kids' hands and encourages families to read together. Since 2002, Cheerios has given away more than 60 million books in boxes and donated $3.8 million to First Book, an award-winning children’s literacy nonprofit that provides the opportunity for children from low-income families to own their first new books.

"I'm partnering with Cheerios and Spoonfuls of Stories again this year to talk about the importance of reading with your kids and making people aware that through March and April, Cheerios is giving away books in their cereal boxes," says Garth. "This is the 10-year anniversary of the program, and Cheerios is holding "Breakfast & A Book" events around the country featuring special guest readers to raise awareness about the importance of literacy in our children and to also raise money for the First Book organization."

"Cheerios Spoonfuls of Stories is a fabulous program that's giving away a million books to kids that normally wouldn't have the opportunity to get them," Garth explains. "They have given over 60 million books in the last 10 years while they promote literacy in our children."

The importance of family reading time

Reading is important from the time children are born. Reading to your kids promotes parental bonding, encourages speech and communication skills, enhances concentration and discipline and of course, lays the foundation for reading on their own in the future.

All of my girls love reading

"Fiona, my 5-year-old, is just starting to read, and the experience is so amazing," says Garth. "My other two daughters were 6 and 7 when they began to read, and Fiona is starting a little early. She loves it so much that she's constantly excited about reading. Even when I am too tired, she always says, 'No, it's time to read,' and grabs her Dick and Jane books. It's cute how much she loves it."

"I think it's so important, and it's part of our jobs as parents to foster that love for reading in our kids. All of my girls love reading. My oldest, Luca, likes a variety of books. She did enjoy The Hunger Games but also reads classics. My daughter just read Pride and Prejudice for a project for school. At home, it's so nice to turn off the TV and have that quiet time as a family and all read."

Family time

Despite being in the limelight since she was a teen, Garth is down to earth and enjoys simple family time with her daughters -- from reading to playing outdoors.

"One of our favorite things to do together is have a picnic on a blanket in the yard. From that blanket many things can happen -- running and playing, jumping on the trampoline, playing with the dogs or the horses. It's just a great place to spend time together."

Little bit country

You'll see Garth next in Jennie Garth: A Little Bit Country -- her new series that premieres April 20 at 9 p.m. on CMT. The show centers on Garth as she leaves Hollywood behind in search of a simpler life for her family on a seven-acre farm in Los Olivos, California.

"I lived on a farm in that idyllic environment [Garth spent her childhood on a ranch in Illinois] and wanted that for my girls," she explains. "I wanted the chance to have a job and be creating an income while being in the country. This show gives me that."

"I also think of it as an opportunity to invite people in and see another side of me. I'm looking forward to opening up to people -- especially women and sharing my story with them."

Single parenting

Life isn't easy for single parents -- even celebrities.

"I face the same challenges as any single mom. It's not easy," Garth says.

"I can relate to any other woman going through the same thing. That's what I really want to show with the TV series: Whether you are famous or not, it doesn't really matter."

"I want to identify and connect with women everywhere. There's a stigma with being a celebrity and how we're perceived as so much different or better. But when you are going through something like I'm going through -- we are all the same. The feelings and challenges are the same, no matter who you are."

Jennie Garth spills details on divorce from Peter Facinelli

No marriage split is easy, even in Hollywood. Actress Jennie Garth recounts the moment when husband Peter Facinelli asked for a divorce.

Jennie Garth shares divorce details from Peter Facinelli

It came as a shock when the couple made the announcement that Jennie Garth and Peter Facinelli were set to divorce, after 11 years of marriage. Though the actress reaffirms that she's doing great — thanks to a new reality show on CMT and a home in rural California, she reveals that the initial moments of the split were especially difficult.

"I was very resistant," she told People of her divorce from Facinelli in a new interview. "I didn't want it to happen. It took me some time to come to peace with it."

Over the past couple years, the "Facinelli Five" — Peter, Jennie and daughters Luca, Lola and Fiona — found themselves switching from family traditions to long-distance relationships, as Jennie's husband played a regular role on Showtime's Nurse Jackie and the lifesaving Dr. Carlisle Cullen in The Twilight Saga.

The women of the family moved into their California ranch house in Santa Ynez Valley, while Facinelli commuted from Vancouver and New York City.

"He would do everything he could to fly back every weekend," explained Garth. "[But] it took a real toll on our marriage."

However, she has had some time to recover from the shock and is looking forward to better days.

"I've gone through my darkest parts and I'm coming out of it," said Garth. "I'm okay. I don't know what the future holds, but then I've never been a planner. And maybe that's a good thing."

Though her marriage to Peter Facinelli has come to an end after 11 years, Jennie Garth clarifies that she's no victim -- and no other divorcee needs to be either.

Jennie Garth has advice for fellow divorceesJennie Garth may be oddly public about her divorce from Peter Facinelli, but she does have ulterior motives for being so open about what is usually a private family matter.

"I know how hard it is," Garth told People of divorce. "I've said many times to myself, 'I can't imagine that happening to me.' It was the unimaginable to me. But guess what, it happened and I got through it."

Ironically, the separation comes at an interesting time in her life. "As I turn 40, I want to share my life with other women," said Garth. "I've gradually been making my way to this point in my life. I want to share my voice."

So what advice does she have for fellow divorcees?

"You can feel really bad about yourself when you're going through a divorce. You can feel like a failure. And that's not a good feeling. [By sharing my story] maybe it'll help someone. I've gone through this and so can you."

Though it's only been two weeks since the public announcement, she admitted that she understands the path that's led to this point in her 11-year marriage to Peter Facinelli.

"At first, I wanted to say that [our marriage] is not working for him and he's the one that's not happy," she revealed. "But when I really looked into how I was feeling, I could see it was the best thing for both of us. I didn't want to admit it, because I didn't want to let him go."

She looks forward to the greater good that will come from this split.

"I hope I don't come off as pathetic and sad, because I'm not," Garth added. "I want to be a symbol of getting through something like this intact. I've gone through the darkest parts and I'm coming out and I even feel gratitude for having gone through it."

What is the last thing you'll want to do when going through a very public split? Guest host a morning talk show! Facinelli talks to Ripa about divorce.

Peter Facinelli admits to painJennie Garth has already spoken out plenty about her divorce from fellow actor Peter Facinelli, after 11 years of marriage. So while appearing as a guest host on Live! With Kelly this morning, the Twilight actor took the opportunity to share his perspective on the split.

"Jen and I are doing really well," Facinelli told Kelly Ripa. "She'll always be in my life."

However, his definition of "really well" isn't without its setbacks. "It's very painful to break up with somebody," he said. "It's even more painful when it's played out in the media."

Facinelli does have one thing straight though -- his priority as a father to his three daughters: Luca, 14, Lola, 9 and Fiona, 5.

"We're very dedicated to being great parents," he explained, which echoes what Garth has said is also her main concern during this divorce.

"You know what, my main concern right now is just taking care of my girls, and keeping us intact," she said to People. "We're doing really well. We're just loving each other and we're all healthy, and that's all that matters."

She attributed a lot of it to their recent move to rural California, soon to be shared through the CMT reality show, A Little Bit Country.

"The best thing about living in the country with my girls is that we have more time to spend together, doing the things we like doing," she reflected. "It's a better quality of life somehow. We spend a lot of time watching movies around the fire, outdoors having picnics. We have tons of animals that we play with, we go on bike rides. The girls are young and they like it."

Jennie Garth wasn't jealous of Facinelli's Twilight success

Though she is promoting her new CMT reality show, Jennie Garth: A Little Bit Country, she has to clarify -- Twilight is NOT the reason for her split from Peter Facinelli.

Jennie Garth wasn't jealous of Peter FacinelliThe consequences of the Hollywood life often overflow into celebrity couples' marriage problems, but Jennie Garth says that wasn't the case for her split from Twilight actor Peter Facinelli.

"I enjoyed the quote that I was envious of his fame or whatever," Garth said on The Today Show. "There was nothing like that going on. I was very happy for him, and so happy to be at home with the kids and enjoying my 'early retirement.' I didn't want to work at that time. I just wanted to be at home on the farm."

Even more so, the reality of her marriage's end was also not a result of filming her new reality show, Jennie Garth: A Little Bit Country.

"When I started to take this show on, I wasn't headed down this road," she explained. "It happened in the middle of filming the show, and now part of doing any kind of job as an actress is following through and doing the press circuit for the show, doing interviews and people want to talk about it. And, I am okay talking about it, but it's certainly not... something you want to talk about."

However, she maintains a positive outlook. "It was something we were working through together. As anybody who's been through it, it's always kind of shocking when it ends up finally happening. But it was sad for our family unit. We're a really great family, and we always will be, because we have three beautiful daughters together."

Jennie Garth: A Little Bit Country debuts on CMT this Friday at 9 p.m. EST.

Jennie Garth is trying to help, not promoting new show

Jennie Garth just wants to help other women find their way through the emotional maze of divorce. Read on to find out what she had to say to Ellen DeGeneres about why she's talking about her split so much.

Jennie Garth Ellen Degeneres

Jennie Garth has pretty much not stopped talking about her impending divorce from Peter Facinelli since it was announced, and she says that while it's a difficult matter to discuss she is doing it to help other women who are going through the same thing.

That's right, it totally has nothing to do with keeping her in the news cycle to promote her upcoming reality show. Nope. Nothing like that at all.

"[The divorce isn't] something I'm dying to talk about, but it's something that's going on in my life: I'm not ashamed to talk about it," Garth said during an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show.

"I think by being open and honest with what I'm going through, maybe it helps somebody else. I know, I've heard from a lot of people that it helps them, maybe with what they're going through -- I'm not afraid to talk about it."

Jennie Garth wasn't jealous of Peter Facinelli's Twilight success >>

And while she and Twilight star Facinelli are no longer committed to each other, she said they remain "committed [to] being there for our girls," referring to daughters Luca, Lola and Fiona.

"That's the most important thing for us," Garth said. "I think at first, I wasn't sure how I was going to make it through, but I really learned that I am so much stronger than I thought I was. And, if I can help other women touch into that… you know, their strength."

Garth and Facinelli announced their split in March. Although rumors were rampant he was cheating while filming The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn -- Part 2 in Canada, Facinelli denied breaking his marriage vows.

9021-Oh no! Jennie Garth and Tiffani Thiessen are enemies

$

Former Beverly Hills: 90210 co-stars Jennie Garth and Tiffani Thiessen used to be inseparable. Now? They can't even look at one another. What happened? Let's speculate, shall we?

Jennie Garth and Tiffani Thiessen hate each other

The Beverly Hills: 90210 cast had as much drama between them on-set as their characters did on the show. One of the show's mainstays, Jennie Garth, has created — and destroyed — so many of her friendships throughout her involvement in the show.

Case in point? Her once-close relationship with Tiffani Thiessen is now frigid, according to US Weekly. Thiessen — a bridesmaid at Garth's now-defunct marriage to Peter Facinelli — wouldn't even interact with her former friend at an industry event in 2009.

"Finally, Jennie snapped, 'OK? You got me?,'" the source told the magazine. "Tiffani looked sheepish and Jennie walked away. It was very awkward."

There's all sorts of sinister explanations for their broken friendship, including a possible love triangle between the women and Facinelli. Of course, this all happened a few years ago, so it's probably over something completely non-related.

Garth's relationships with former co-stars Tori Spelling and Shannen Doherty have fizzled over the years, too. However, the blonde mom of three is now on good terms with both of them. Garth's relationship with Doherty was especially hostile — the pregnant reality star even alleged in her book, sTori Telling, that the two got into a fight on-set.

"Shannen had everything, but she could be arrogant and carefree. Jennie [Garth] was outspoken when she thought Shannen was out of line. Sometimes they got along, but there were explosions. Once they got into a fistfight," she wrote in the 2008 tome. However, former bad girl Doherty denies it ever happened.

"I got passages sent to me and a vast majority of it is incredibly exaggerated," Doherty told Entertainment Weekly in 2009. "No, we never punched each other."

The trio worked together for a time on the CW's reincarnation of 90210. Garth admitted at the time that she was worried about working with her frenemy again.

"I’m not much of a small talker, and I don’t think she is either. I was a little nervous because I hadn’t seen or talked to her in 14 years," Garth told EW during the same interview. "Everyone was making it out to be such a big deal that I think we both fell prey to having that affect us." With their squabbles behind them, Garth says, "I think it will be OK. We’re both grown women, both professionals. Once we were working, it felt like a good fit."

Garth will admit one thing, though: She at least scratched her brunette co-star.

"I just remember being outside and the boys having to try to settle us down," she said. "Scratching? I’m not going to deny that."

The actress is looking to move on after splitting from her husband of 11 years in March. She has moved to central California, is working on a new show and spending more time with her kids and friends.

Jennie GarthJennie Garth is single for the first time in 11 years and it is a whole new world for her. The actress spoke with Entertainment Tonight Canada about her new life and future.

Garth said she was surprised when her friends are looking to help her meet someone new.

"A lot of people have a 'friend' that they want to set me up with, so it's kind of weird!" she said, according to People.

But Garth isn’t necessarily looking to date any time soon. She wants to spend her free time with her children and friends.

"As I turn 40, I want to share my life with other women," Garth told People in March. "I've gradually been making my way to this point in my life. I want to share my voice."

On March 28, the actress and her husband, Twilight star Peter Facinelli, filed for divorce. The couple had been married 11 years and have three children.

"I know how hard it is," Garth told People of her divorce. "I've said many times to myself, 'I can't imagine that happening to me.' It was the unimaginable to me. But guess what, it happened and I got through it."

Garth is working on her show, Jennie Garth, Little Bit Country, and spending time with her children. The mom couldn’t be more proud of her daughters, Luca, 14, Lola, 9 and Fiona, 5.

The show focuses on the star’s move to central California to have a normal life, and interestingly enough, is produced by Facinelli Films.

"Every one of my girls is a different size and shape," she said. "I want them to be comfortable in their own skin and be healthy minded."

As for her future, the 40-year-old actress told People she is just taking it one day at a time and focusing on herself and her family.

"I'm taking it slow." she said.

Kristin Cavallari tweeted the arrival of her baby boy with her fiance, Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler, on August 8.

“We are thrilled to welcome Camden Jack Cutler into the world,” she tweeted. “He was born this morning weighing 7lbs 9oz. Everyone is doing great!”

Perhaps her son will take after Daddy, as Camden Cutler sounds like a great football player name! Camden is a Scottish name in origin that means “from the winding valley.” The name has been rising in popularity since it ranked number 362 in the year 2000, according to the Social Security Administration. It was ranked at number 160 last year.

Why do you think Cavallari picked this name? Perhaps she wanted to keep the “C” theme going with her last name and Cutler’s last name? Or perhaps she loves the Camden area of London? Tell us what you think of the name Camden Jack!

The couple has three daughters together, Luca, 15, Lola, 9, and Fiona, 5.

Garth, seen here in June with daughter Luca, seemed to be trying to address that weight loss chatter with the tweet, “eat me,” with a photo of her holding up a cupcake.

The former 90210 star recently explained to Entertainment Tonight Canada about her weight loss. “I think anybody who has been through something like what I'm going through and have been going through for the past couple years, can definitely relate that your body changes with your emotional state of mind sometimes," she revealed. “I think a lot of women can relate to that."

"We have so many fruits at our ranch where we've been living... so eating healthy, especially with three girls, body image is something that I try to set a good example for them," she continued.

“Stick it to Chik-fil-A with this yum-looking #recipe @PETA” she wrote, with a link to a vegan recipe.

“Chik-fil-A is pretty all around awful, so if you know someone who likes their sandwiches, hit ‘em with this recipe, courtesy of PETA,” she wrote on her website.

Divorce looks good on Jennie Garth, as the 90210 actress and A Little Bit Country reality star has been spotted with a new physique and a new guy, photographer Noah Abrams -- six months after her split from husband of 11 years, Peter Facinelli.

Jennie Garth

Many of us grew up with Jennie Garth as "Kelly" on Beverly Hills 90210. And, while her new beau may not be as known to the masses, Noah Abrams has made a name for himself in the photography world.

The 33-year-old, by way of his online portfolio, has "established himself as one of the premiere photographers in the contemporary music scene," and boasts "an emerging eye in the commercial fashion world."

Jennie Garth: Not jealous of Facinelli's Twilight fame > >

No doubt the Los Angeles-based Abrams has developed a niche in the music and fashion worlds. To name a few pubs, he's shot for Rolling Stone, Vanity Fair and GQ.

He's worked behind the lens to capture many faces quite comfortable in front of it -- from actresses Zoe Saldana and Hayden Panettiere to skateboarder Tony Hawk and musicians Ben Harper, Coldplay and the Foo Fighters, among others.

Abrams is far from content to stay in the studio, it seems. He told Spin , that he's working on a documentary about rockers the Black Keys and, far from home, he captured a small but thriving scene of skateboarders in, of all places, war-ravaged Afghanistan. Some of his works from that shoot can be found at his site here.

People emphasizes that 40-year-old Garth is dating Abrams "casually." Us Weekly has linked the recently divorced star to HGTV's Antonio Ballatore.

"She's not looking to get into anything too serious too fast," a source told Us.

The two actors may finally be dating after decades of their fans wishing for it to be true. But those close to the two aren't admitting anything.
The Buzz - Jennie Garth and Luke Perry: Are They or Aren't They Dating?

Rumors are circulating that Jennie Garth and Luke Perry have fallen in love for real, but we reached out to our own Sources to get the full scoop on this favored romance...

For fans of 90210 , your dreams may have come true. The New York Post is reporting that Jennie Garth and Luke Perry are officially a couple. Like, in real life.

The two actors played Kelly Taylor and Dylan McKay on the show, characters that dated on and off for 10 years on 90210.

The actors saw each other recently while shooting an Old Navy commercial and apparently the sparks flew.

“Since seeing Luke again, Jennie has fallen in love with him and Luke feels the same,” a source close to the couple told the National Enquirer, according to the New York Post. “There is an electricity between them that has been revived after all these years. It just happened.”

But the National Enquirer is not exactly proof of a relationship, and more people close to the two actors are saying not so fast!

A rep for Perry told the New York Post that “the actors are, and always have been, nothing more than just best buddies.”

Another person close to the actors also told SheKnows: “They were so cute together but just old friends -- I don’t think anything more than that. Very playful and flirty, so maybe something happened years ago? But no just seem liked really good and old friends.”

For anyone who watched the show and was on Team Dylan, we can still dream that the two became a couple and lived happily ever after.

Garth is recently single after she and her husband Peter Facinelli announced their divorce in March. That same month she told People she wasn’t ready to date yet, but has already been linked to a few different guys. She currently has a show on CMT following her life. Perry was divorced in 2003.

If the couple were to really become a couple, they would become a very good-looking modern Brady Bunch, since Garth has three children and Perry has two.
