He realized it's cheaper to keep her and I realize, you know, if you're with one a**hole, you might as well be with your a**hole husband with a kid."

Kelly Dodd says that neither one of them want to get divorced. That is actually something that sounds good for their relationship, but it is still a bit strange to people. It sounds like they will try to make the marriage work no matter what.

Kelly wrote a blog on Bravo recently where she shared her thoughts on the recent drama with Shannon Beador and her mother-in-law. Kelly didn't hold back at all on this one. She shared that this was the first time she had been to Shannon's house and that the two were finally starting to get along with each other. She shared that as soon as Shannon saw her mother-in-law walk in at the girl's performance she told them that her mother-in-law hates her.

Dodd said that Donna (Shannon's mother-in-law) stood by her during the performance and cheered on the girls. Kelly said she felt awful for the girls over what happened and shared the details of what went

    Director Noah Baumbach has had some sort of fascination with Greta Gerwig lately. While his previous film of 2015 didn't feature the actor, three of his last four directorial outings - including this one, Mistress America - have featured her in prominent roles. If you're one of the people who believe that Baumbach is trying desperately to copy Woody Allen, this certainly helps fit that narrative.

Set in New York - because he's copying Woody Allen, remember - Mistress America follows a college freshman, Tracy (Lola Kirke), who decides to form a friendship with her mother's fiancé’s daughter, Brooke (Greta Gerwig, who co-wrote the screenplay), who is more worldly, eccentric, adventurous, and knowledgeable about things than she is.…

    There are only a limited number of ways to terminate alimony or spousal support. Section 20-109(A) of the Virginia Code states that one of those ways is to show that, based upon clear and convincing evidence, the spouse receiving support has been habitually cohabiting with another person in a relationship analogous to a marriage for one year or more. Given that gay marriage is now legal in Virginia, you might think that “cohabitating with another person in a relationship analogous to a marriage” applies to opposite-sex and same-sex couples alike. Not according to the Virginia Court of Appeals in the recent case of Luttrell v. Cucco. Luttrell v. Cucco…
