LAURIE METCALF’S HUSBAND MATT ROTH IS NOW FLIPPING BURGERS

Here’s an odd and convoluted piece of information. Laurie Metcalf (she’s most famous for playing Roseanne’s sister Jackie) has split with her husband Matt Roth (he appeared on both Roseanne and Desperate Housewives with Laurie as her husband.) Matt went off and started up his own food truck business called “The Patty Wagon.” He cooks up and serves gourmet grass-fed beef burgers (delicious!) while his new girlfriend takes the orders. The burgers have rave reviews.

Couples Desperate Housewives Eduardo Cruz Eva Longoria

EVA LONGORIA AND HER HOT SPANISH BOYFRIEND ARE STILL ON

Yep, they’re an item and Eva Longoria, 35, couldn’t be happier about it. She and Penelope Cruz’s younger brother, Spanish pop star Eduardo Cruz, 25, were spotted at Christmas looking cozy at her house and now they are getting sneaky. The couple dined at Cafe Was but they arrived and left separately in different cars. Eduardo has been in town for the birth of his sister’s baby and the whole family seems to be celebrating. A nice distraction for the divorcing Eva.

Desperate Housewives Felicity Huffman Fired Marc Cherry Nicollette Sheridan Teri Hatcher We Told You So

WE TOLD YOU SO: TERI HATCHER IS LEAVING DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES

There were many doubters when we wrote back on Feb 2, 2010, that Teri Hatcher’s character was going to be written off “Desperate Housewives.” Teri even denied it because SHE didn’t know it was going to happen. The show’s creator Marc Cherry fired Nicollette Sheridan without a backward glance, and he’s the one behind Teri’s departure. We told you that Marc didn’t think some of his actors were as “grateful” as they should be, and now we know who he was probably referring to. We surmise that when it became evident that Teri was leaving, Felicity Huffman packed her bags in a hurry.

Desperate Housewives Health Husband Marcia Cross Tom Mahoney

HER HUSBAND SEEMS HEALTHY AND MARCIA CROSS HAS NEVER LOOKED HAPPIER

It’s nice to see “Desperate Housewives” star Marcia Cross and her twin daughters Eden and Savannah at the Santa Monica farmer’s market as usual. This time is special because Marcia’s husband Tom Mahoney accompanied them and it looks like his health is much improved. In 2009 Tom, a stock broker, was treated for cancer and he looked gaunt and lost his hair and was rarely seen in public. It’s apparent that Marcia is happy and grateful that Tom is back and energetically playing with the kids.

Desperate Housewives Lawsuit Mystery Date Nicollette Sheridan

LIFE GOES ON FOR FORMER “HOUSEWIFE” NICOLLETTE SHERIDAN

has a love life. After she was fired from “Desperate Housewives,” Nicollette sued the producer Marc Cherry and was disappointed when none of her former costars backed her up. Since then she hasn’t had a lot of luck landing roles, but she has a handsome new guy in her life. The pair were photographed having lunch in Calabasas and Nicollette must be very comfortable with this mystery man because she’s wearing sweat pants and Uggs.

Desperate Housewives Lawsuit Marc Cherry Nicollette Sheridan Teri Hatcher

MARC CHERRY FIRED NICOLLETTE SHERIDAN – CAN HE FIRE TERI HATCHER TOO?

We might be responsible for saving Teri Hatcher’s job on “Desperate Housewives!” This became apparent when Nicollette Sheridan filed her lawsuit against ABC for “wrongful termination.” Nicolette claims that the series creator Marc Cherry whacked her in the face when she questioned the script. Cherry supporters claim “He was prepping her for a scene involving a slap.” (The Winona Ryder excuse) Nicollette complained to ABC and apparently they swallowed the scene prepping story and found no merit to her claim. Her character was killed off not long after. Nicollette claims Marc was also abusive to Teri Hatcher, who also complained to ABC. Last summer we heard that Teri’s character was about to be written off the show too! Teri CAN’T be fired now, because that would strengthen Nicollette’s lawsuit. Cherry, who is accused of “gender violence” is described by our source as “Mercurial – and he doesn’t think some of his actors are as GRATEFUL as they should be. He thinks he did them a big favor by hiring them.”

Desperate Housewives Levi Johnston Playgirl

LEVI JOHNSTON COULD BE A HOT GUY ON “DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES”

Now that Levi Johnston has conquered Playgirl, we hear he’s headed for Wisteria Lane. Levi, who also goes by the name Rikki Hollywood, is in talks to guest star on a three episode arc on “Desperate Housewives.” Marc Cherry, the series creator, is a gay Republican and he was intrigued by Levi when he saw him at last year’s Republican National Convention. He offered Levi a role on the show and Levi/Rikki is taking acting lessons to prepare.

Desperate Housewives Teri Hatcher

TERI HATCHER’S “DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES” CHARACTER IS IN FOR A BIG SURPRISE

You’d never guess it by looking at her, but Teri Hatcher’s days on “Desperate Housewives” are numbered. (She and her daughter Emerson are in Beverly Hills, above) It’s a big secret, but Teri’s character will be written off the show sometime next season – and she may not know it yet. Teri’s storyline has pretty much run it’s course and producers want to shake things up a bit so they’re brainstorming to come up with an outrageous and unexpected departure for Susan Mayer.
