Rebecca Romijn:Motherhood Makes Me Feel Whole

Rebecca Romijn started her career as a model – and, following in her footsteps, her 4-month-old daughters have now posed for their first fashion photo shoot.

Featured with her girls for an InStyle magazine spread, the actress says that Mom is her most rewarding role to date. "Being a mom makes me feel whole and like I understand the meaning of life," Romijn, 36, tells InStyle for the June Sexy issue, on newsstands May 22. "All I want to do is stare into my babies' eyes nonstop."

Romijn, who has already lost 60 lbs. since giving birth to Dolly Rebecca Rose and Charlie Tamara Tulip in December, is nearly back to her pre-baby body – but says she doesn't worry too much about her figure. "I'm a jeans size up from where I usually am, but there's nothing about it that freaks me out," she says. "I feel as sexy as I have ever felt. I've always said that sexy is having a really strong sense of yourself and never taking yourself too seriously."

As for how her husband, Jerry O'Connell, is handling a house full of women, Romijn praises him as a wonderful dad. "He's got endless amounts of energy, and he's having such a blast with these girls." Just don't ask O'Connell what it will be like when the girls are older. Jokes Romijn: "He's determined not to let them ever date while he is alive."

The Circus Goes International & Britney Spears' Sons Are Along For The Ride!

Kevin Federline's attorney confirms that K-Fed and his ex-wife will be extending their current custody arrangement when Spears' blockbuster tour heads to Europe.

Federline will also be making the trek to Europe so that Spears can continue to be close to sons Sean and Jayden—and the boys' dad will be around to take care of them when mommy is onstage.

"They worked out an arrangement to facilitate her being able to go on tour without having to sacrifice her abiltity to see the kids," attorney Mark Vincent Kaplan says. "She'll go on tour, she'll go to the venues, but Kevin will be there with the kids. There won't be any change in the custody schedule in Europe or anywhere she is on tour."

The once-estranged exes first hammered out a modified joint custody deal when Spears embarked on her Circus tour in March in New Orleans.

"Kevin is happy with how the kids are doing, and he's happy that he's been able to work out an arrangement where Britney is pursuing her professional goals, and Kevin is rooting for her all the way," Kaplan says.

"The kids are great, they're really happy," Kaplan adds. "They're very well-adjusted kids, as well-adjusted as you can expect. They will always push the envelope, but I think that they have the absolute privilege of having two parents who absolutely love them. Everyone has worked for making sure that they're not a product of all of the attention and commotion."

Tori Spelling's Biggest Fear Was Having A Girl

Her relationship with mom Candy has been rocky at times – and Tori Spelling says that dynamic concerned her when it came to raising her own daughter, Stella.

"My biggest fear in life was having a girl," Spelling, 35, tells Cookie Magazine for its June issue, which she celebrated Wednesday during a bash at the Kitson in Los Angeles with her family.

"How was I going to handle a girl?" But, now she knows she didn't have to worry. "It turns out that Stella is a total mama's girl," she says of her 11-month-old. "For all my fears, without my even trying, Stella wants her mama. When she is in [husband] Dean's arms, she lunges for me the way Liam did for him."

Another challenge after becoming a mom for the second time, Spelling says, was how to deal with the public attention over her post-pregnancy body. "After I'd given birth to Stella, some woman at the market grabbed my belly and asked when I was due," she says. "When she had the flab in her hand, she realized her mistake. And the first time I went out after I had Liam, the paparazzi were around and I remember trying to hold my stomach in, even though my muscles were shot to hell." But it was not just the press who was interested in her body. "During both pregnancies, people touched my belly a lot," Spelling says. "I would never do that to a pregnant woman – it's a personal thing. And if I did, I'd say, 'Your belly is so cute, can I touch it?' "

But the actress says she came to accept (and appreciate) the attention, actually. "At a certain point, " she says, "I just decided that Stella was getting a lot of love in there."

The season premiere of Tori & Dean: Home Sweet Hollywood on Oxygen is May 26 at 10 p.m. ET/PT.

Nicole Richie and Joel Madden are already the proud parents of an adorable 16-month-old daughter, Harlow, and now, they’re getting ready for the arrival of a bouncing baby boy in August, according to the latest issue of In Touch.

“Joel bought water-based paint for the nursery and — surprise, surprise — it’s blue,” reveals another pal of the couple, who adds that Nicole refers to the baby as “he.” “Plus, she recently ordered some plush animals and infant toys from FAO Schwarz, and everything just happens to be blue.”

Brad Pitt Is Mr. Mom!

While locals in Oyster Bay on the North Shore of Long Island are known for their posh yet casual style, ever since the Hollywood A-lister started picking up his kids at school, local moms have ditched their flats and no makeup look for chic heels and lipstick.

"They are off the charts excited and everyone is dolled up, " one local says. "The moms are trying to look a little bit more polished. Instead of schlepping in sweat pants and messy hair, now they wear designer jeans and high heels, which they never wear. Usually it's Tod's or Gucci loafers. Everyone is putting a little more effort. Let's face it – he's a handsome guy."

Pitt, who has set up a base in the town with Angelina Jolie and the couple's children, is embracing his role as Mr. Mom while Jolie spends time filming her new movie, Salt. Pitt's daddy duties include dropping the kids off at school and even reading books to the children in daughter Shiloh's class..

"At school, they think they are going to bump into him," says the local. "Brad sits in the back of the classroom a lot. He is very unassuming and very sweet and nice." Locals love the fact that Pitt, Jolie and the kids are often spotted at the Stop & Shop and Dunkin' Donuts. "Who would think they would see them grocery shopping, and not sending out the help?" says a source. "They are trying to teach their kids what's normal ... And they are always in the pizza parlor and Borders Books."

Kate Gosselin's Brother Confirms Marriage Is Over!

Jon and Kate Gosselin's marriage is done, her brother, Kevin Krieder, says in an explosive new interview.

"Six month ago, Kate came to Jon and said, 'Hey, it's over," Krieder, 32, tells RadarOnline.com.
Krieder also reiterates Jon's fears that his wife of nearly 10 years was having an affair with her married bodyguard, Steve Neild. (Kate has confessed she and Jon might split in the same interview she says she is "horrified" by any allegations suggesting she and Neild are romantically involved; TLC refused comment.)

"Jon came to our door one day and told [Krieder's wife] Jodi he suspects it's Steve the bodyguard, and he feels that he's getting the bad rap," Krieder says. "He feels that Kate's not being faithful either."

A source tells Us that Kate and Neild (who flew to a promotional appearance in Michigan together last night from Maryland) have a "very physical" relationship.

At a recent public appearance, "she was gently poking him, giving him little love pats, totally unlike the slapping she does with Jon. She and Steve were joking around so much, I actually wondered if they were having an affair," the source goes on.

Continues Krieder: "Although Jon has made some poor choices lately, he suspects that...Kate has been unfaithful. It's a horrible thing to talk about, but it just paints how bad and how different reality is from the reality show."

Kate Gosselin: "We Might Split Up"

She's embroiled in a public scandal linking her husband, Jon Gosselin, to another woman, and Kate Gosselin tells PEOPLE in its latest cover story that she and her spouse have been privately struggling for months.

"I don't know that we're in the same place anymore, that we want the same thing," she says quietly. "I've been struggling with the question of 'Who is this person?' for a while. I remember where I was the first time I heard her name. It's one of those things where you can try to make it go away, but there's blaring, red flashing lights."

The name to which Kate refers belongs to 23-year-old Deanna Hummel, whose brother later claimed she'd been having a months-long affair with Jon. For Kate, who has referred to her husband as "my balance, my strength and my stability," to now consider a future apart has been heartbreaking but not impossible.

"You can't imagine yourself in a certain position when all this first happens, but you can do it over some months," she says. "It's a lot like when I was first pregnant with the babies, and it was pure shock and denial. But over time I imagined six cribs in my house, and six car seats. When your mind is ready to go there, you can accept any number of scenarios."

Kate does have hope, however, that her marriage can be saved. "I will never give up hope that every member of our family can be absolutely happy again," she says.

For the childrens sake I do hope they can make their marriage work.

Kate Gosselin:I Am Horrified About Allegations Of Cheating

Kate Gosselin of TLC’s Jon & Kate Plus Eight, is trying to stay one step ahead and shooting down rumors that she had an affair with bodyguard Steve Neild.

The 34-year-old mom-of-eight tells People, “The next story coming out from the animals that stalk us is about our security person and his family. Already the allegations they’re making about me are disgusting, unthinkable, unfathomable, and I am horrified.

“[Neild and his family] absolutely love us and want to see us through to the end. Of course, both of them travel with us at times, and we’ve spent holidays together, because, in this situation, your circle grows smaller and smaller, and it’s very natural to become friends with your manager, your publicist, your security team … they’re the only people you have left. And now they’re coming under fire.

“I’m totally panicking, and thinking, ‘We are going to lose our last set of friends.’ I keep calling them, begging, ‘Seriously, I’m so sorry. Don’t run away from us.’ They keep saying, ‘We’re fine, we’re fine.’ But they have paparazzi in front of their house. It’s so upsetting.

“We opened our world to this but we willingly made a conscious decision to put this out there. Our friends and family did not. I had no idea we would potentially take down the people that we love around us. It’s like saying, ‘Thanks for your support, let me sic the paparazzi on you.’ It’s very very difficult. It leaves us, essentially, alone and friendless. It’s terrible.

“The scary thing for me is [the tabloids] are going to take information and create a story. It’s a matter of, ‘When will they stop?’ They’re going to keep going, and they’ll make up stuff to connect the dots.”

JLo Reveals Daughter's Health Scare

Jennifer Lopez will never forget the night she and husband Marc Anthony discovered a lump on daughter Emme's head. Emme and twin brother Max were only 3 weeks old at the time.

"We both got very nervous, very very nervous, and I just remember my heart sinking to my feet," Lopez recalled at last night's Noche de Niños gala benefit for Children's Hospital Los Angeles (CHLA). "I looked at [Marc] and I said, ‘You know if anything happens, I'm not going to be OK, you know that, right?'"

Lopez and Anthony rushed Emme to Children's Hospital, where she underwent a battery of tests, including an MRI. "Luckily, in the end," Lopez said, "she turned out fine."

But it turned into something more for the hospital...
Shortly after the scare, the singer-actress joined forces with CHLA to form the Maribel Foundation to help provide pediatric medical services to the less fortunate.

"I started to wonder," Lopez said, "what if I couldn't afford a doctor or receive the medicines, the procedures?"

Lopez also debuted a new song last night, which she wrote for her twins. A recording of the ballad was played during a video highlighting the Foundation's work. In it Lopez sings, "Let's keep this time for us and make it last as long as we can. It's already going too fast."

Heidi Klum & Seal Renew Their Vows On The Malibu Shore

It was business in the front and party in the back for Seal as he donned a fake mullet for an unconventional wedding vow renewal ceremony with Heidi Klum on the Malibu shore.

Klum got into the retro spirit by channeling her inner Bo Derek, circa 1979, wrapping her hair in cornrows as the couple and three children were joined by 75 friends Saturday, a day before their wedding anniversary.

The event was officiated by an Elvis impersonator. On a beachfront patio under a pink canopy, Heidi, 35, who is pregnant with their fourth child, wore a white, sequined top a glitter-drenched veil. Seal, 46, wore a studded jeans jacket.

Guests came in jeans shorts, leopard print and leather jackets. Afterwards, guests cheered and toasted the couple with Mexican beer. Later, guests enjoyed Mexican food while listening to 60's rock music while partying on the patio decorated with inflatable pink flamingos and leopard balloons.

"After the ceremony, and as the sun set, Seal took care of Heidi and helped her put on black leather jacket so she would stay warm," a source says. "Even with cornrows, Heidi looked stunning. Everyone was laughing and having good time."
