This was probably the last thing Bachelorette Ali Fedotowsky and her fiancé wanted to talk about, seeing as though this is supposed to be the happiest time of their lives. “I don’t think we’re in any position to give them advice,” Ali told us.
Her words of wisdom for Eva? “Keep your head up. There is light at the end of the road. Everything happens for a reason. Just have faith and be strong. She’ll get through it.”
We hope Ali and Roberto don’t end up in the same boat—The Bachelor/Bachelorette engagements aren’t usually long-lasting!
Kimora Lee Simmons, who’s been through a divorce herself from Russell Simmons, said she wasn’t shocked at all by the news of Eva divorcing. “Nothing surprises me,” she said. “Who was surprised.”
She offered advice based on her own experience, saying, “I went through that too and I’m very happy and very much in love. You just have to find the best fit for yourself. I wouldn’t knock it, I’ve been there before, it’s easy to point the finger. Do the best you can.”
Whitney Port thinks Eva just needs to be with her friends right now. “Just to surround herself with people that truly love her that she can draw strength from,” she said.
Amber Stevens thinks the best way to deal with a break-up is to stay positive. She said, “I sympathize and I’m sorry for anyone that goes through a break up and I hope they just stay focused on their careers and don’t give up on love.”
Aubrey O'Day told us it may seem bad right now, but it’s for the best in the long run. “I think its always messy to advise people on their relationships,” she said.
“I think those things work themselves out and if they don’t, I think whatever ends up happening is usually for the best.”
Kimora’s reaction about not being surprised may seem harsh, but it is true. It really seems more and more that Hollywood relationships just don’t work out.
Why do you think that is? Tell us in the comments!

As you ay recall, Kimora appeared on the first season of the show, but was quickly fired. But word on the street is that there’s no bad blood between the ladies.
So now the rumor is that Kimora will permanently fill one of the judge’s seats, which has been a revolving door this season for celebrities like Kim Kardashian and Lindsay Lohan. And Gatecrasher reports that Miss J. will go back to being a runway coach. His chair will be filled by Vogue editor Andre Leon Talley.
A source says, "No one is sure why Miss J has been demoted from being a judge back to just doing the runway coaching.”
We’d hardly call it a demotion. Maybe Tyra just thinks that’s what he’s great at! She’s got to keep the show fresh to keep it on the air! What do you think of Kimora filling a judge’s seat?

Kimora announced the baby news on her Twitter page on Saturday saying, "It's a boy! Thanks to everyone out there for all your well wishes!"
She even managed to inform her readers that she was in labor and was at the hospital. She said, "It's time !! No turning back! At hospital in labor right now!!"
Gotta love technology! People have their Blackberry's in their hands while they are giving birth.

Kimora recently purchased a property close to Jessica Alba's posh pad and has been in the process of renovating.
At some point during renovations, she figured the house wouldn't be complete without a swimming pool, so she bought her neighbors tennis court and is planning on tearing it down to build a lavish pool.
A source tells WENN, "She has ripped down part of the hedge between her new place and her neighbors' home and she's digging up their tennis court so she can build a pool. She has basically bought the neighbors' yard."
Kimora embodies the 'rich and famous' lifestyle. She's loaded and she's not sorry about it! It's still unclear if her and her fiancé Djimon Hounsou are planning on moving into the new house, but it's always nice to have options.

Kimora and Djimon got married over the summer on a transcontinental trip to Hounsou’s native Benin, Africa, but they've yet to make it legal in the United States.
Kimora was still married to ex husband Russell Simmons at the time of her wedding, so the couple couldn't legalize their union.
“Both Kimora and Djimon wore traditional dashikis,” an insider told the New York Daily News.
“She went whole hog with the African theme - there were African drums, a traditional ceremony with dancers . . . they even had a hut!”
Her little girls Aoki and Ming were present for the ceremony, but were left confused by it. “Aoki slept through the entire ceremony, and Ming cried. They were pretty confused as to what was going on,” says the source.
Kimora and Russell finalized their divorce on January 29, 2009, but Kimora and Djimon still haven't filed for a marriage license. Maybe the alimony payments she's been getting from Russell are just too good to give up?!

Russell has agreed to pay $20,000 a month in child support for daughters, Ming, 9, and Aoki, 6, until the girls turn 19, according to court papers filed Thursday in Los Angeles.
Kimora also gets sole legal and physical custody of the kids. "When the children are in [Simmons's] custody, they shall be accompanied at all times by a nanny and security person," the filing reads.
And that's not all folks, Russell also agreed to provide a new car, worth at least $60,000, for the children's use, until they turn 16. The will be replaced every three years.
Kimora and Russell had an amicable split, so there was never any custody drama between the couple. They've remained good friends, which is great for their two kids.
We just want to know how we can get on Russell's payroll!? Those kids are going to get $480K a year in child support, that's 5x the amount of money a family who is living comfortably makes in the US. Must be nice to have a daddy like Russell!

Radaronline.com has obtained court documents proving it's official dunzo.
Kimora obtained sole legal and physical custody of their two girls, Ming and Aoki and Russell has visitation with the girls for one week every eighth week. He also gets additional summer vacation and holiday time.
Now that she's officially his ex wife, is she finally going to drop his last name?
In March 2007, Kimora began dating Djimon Honsou. The couple is already expecting their first child together, so maybe it's time for her to drop the Simmons. Literally!

According to sources at Us Weekly, the couple is expecting their first child together.
Kimora already has two daughter Ming Lee, 8, and Aoki Lee, 6, from her previous marriage to Russell Simmons, which ended in divorce in 2008.
When asked in September if she wanted more kids, Simmons told Us, "I would love to. I practice everyday."
Well practice certainly makes perfect, and in this case, it makes babies. Congrats to the happy couple.

“The fact is, we’ve had a pretty good partnership at sharing the girls in the past. There have been a few bumps in the road, and those bumps have led us to negotiate a minimum amount of time I’m guaranteed to see my kids. That deal is as follows: I have the girls one full week out of every eight, half of the summer, half of all the holidays, a full week at Christmas, and half of Spring Break.
Like in all good partnerships, contracts are meant to protect the partners but are usually not the only way the partners work together. If I show up in L.A., where she now lives, unannounced, I can call up Kimora and she will most likely send them right over. The same goes for when she comes to New York. We have always had a school in New York and a school with the same curriculum in L.A., so when the girls are with me in New York, we can spend quality time together. I can get up with them, take them to school and just be together.
Kimora consults with me about doctors or schools for the girls, but she’s always had final say in those areas. If we had an argument about a school, guess who’s going to win? But there are other stipulations in our agreement where we have to make final decisions together. Anything having to do with business decisions pertaining to my kids cannot be done without my consent.
I’ve also seen a lot about people reading into the supervised visits stipulation. Kimora travels with a security guard and a nanny. In the past, she’s gotten really nervous that I never travel with security, so if it makes her more comfortable to have her security and a nanny with us when I’m with my kids, that’s OK with me.
Finally, I want to say Kimora is a excellent mother and is doing a great job with them. My kids are studying a couple of foreign languages, they travel around the world, they practice yoga, ballet, swimming, karate and piano, among other things…sometimes I think they do too much, but I trust in Kimora on this because she IS a good mother. Regarding the money, my kids live a tremendous life. They do have lots of security, nannies, educators, special programs, travel, chefs, on and on. Their mother manages all of those luxuries and I’m happy to provide for that.”

The two showed up to the Cartier Loveday event in Bel Air last night, and when asked if Djimon had given her a ring, Kimora answered, "Well, kind of. Not quite."
How can you be "kind of" be engaged? Either he asked you or he didn't!
