Friday, May 11

Reese Witherspoon's Mom: My Husband Married Another Woman

Reese Witherspoon's mother has launched a legal action against the actress's father in Tennessee, with Mary Elizabeth Witherspoon seeking to annul John Witherspoon's new marriage on the grounds he's still her husband. John, 70, described as a Nashville-based physician, married a woman named Tricianne Taylor, 60, in January, according to a certificate of marriage attached to the legal papers. The actress's mother, who goes by the first name Betty, filed a petition for annulment, saying, "No person in Tennessee can marry another while being married at the same time of the second marriage." "I love my husband and I don't want a divorce," Betty says in an affidavit. "We have been married 42 years. He needs help. He has a problem with alcohol. He also has a problem with hoarding, which led to our separation" in 1996. Since then, "We have lived in separate households," she says. According to the papers, John is an ear-nose-and-throat specialist who recently was "let go" from the medical practice due to personal problems, which Betty claims also include depression that worsened when his mother died in 2003. Betty, a retired nurse and university professor, found out about the marriage from a wedding announcement in the local newspaper. "When I confronted my husband, he said he didn't know who Tricianne Taylor was and that he did not remember getting married," Betty says in the affidavit. John tried to bring Taylor to Reese's wedding to Jim Toth in March 2011, Betty claims in the filing, but security would not let Taylor in because she was not on the guest list. Betty says she worries that Taylor will attempt to borrow money or "transfer marital assets" and that she tried contacting the woman. "She refused to talk to me," says Betty. "I wrote her a letter stating that John Witherspoon was married and had two children and four grandchildren. I have had no response. But she clearly knows now that she is married to a man who is not divorced."

Johnny Depp Denies Split with Vanessa Paradis

Four months after it was reported that Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis's relationship was all but finished, Depp denied that he and his partner of 14 years had split. "The rumors are not true. They are absolutely not true," the actor, 48, said on the red carpet for the London premiere of Dark Shadows. Still, conspicuously absent from the premiere was Paradis, who has not been seen publicly with Depp since reports about trouble between them. She also has not shared a red carpet with him in at least a year and a half. In January, Paradis was alone at the premiere of her own movie, Café de Flore. At the time, Paradis, 39 – a French singer, model and actress, and mother of two children with Depp – was evasive when asked about a split. In an interview with Stylist magazine, excerpted in Thursday's Sydney Morning Herald, in Australia, Paradis says, "I believe in love, and I want to believe that it lasts forever. But I'm like everyone else, you have to take things a day at a time and you can never know what comes next. All you can do is hope and love and live." Depp's comments at his movie premiere Monday mark the first time he has publicly addressed the issue. "No matter what I say about this, people believe the opposite," Depp said Wednesday. "I can't say enough about it not being over."
