Chad to Hilary: I'll Always Love You

PopSugar — Tue, 28 Nov 2006 10:50:31 -0800

While Hilary is keeping busy working on her current film PS I Love You with Harry Connick Jr., Chad Lowe is busy talking about how he will always love his ex-wife. He revealed details of their relationship to Extra last night and talked about everything from his past substance abuse to his special bond with Hilary. Here's highlights:

“It has been a tough year and not something I expected,” Lowe admitted. “It’s very humbling.”

One of the most humbling moments came this summer when his ex-wife divulged to Vanity Fair some of Chad’s most private struggles with substance abuse.

“I was disappointed that the details of our relationship became public fodder, because I think they were very personal,” Lowe said, adding, “They are absolutely true. I’ve been sober for three and half years and am very grateful for that.

“The one thing I do want to set straight is that I am so grateful to Hilary for her support of me in a very difficult time in my life three and a half years ago,” Chad continued. “What hurt me more than anything is that people would think she wasn’t there for me; and she was.”

Despite the divorce, Chad also dished to “Extra” that his bond with Hilary is unbreakable.

“She was the love of my life and that's not something you just shut off. I will always love her,” Chad admitted.

And it looks like things are going well for Chad. He's set to star on 24 next season and he's also directing and producing Beautiful Ohio with William Hurt and Michelle Trachtenberg. Looks like both of them are moving on, at least professionally. For more pics of Hilary and her castmate Harry Connick just read more

Hilary Swank Blames Substance Abuse for Divorce

PopSugar — Wed, 05 Jul 2006 11:33:16 -0700

Poor Chad. He already had to deal with a more successful brother and 2 time Oscar winning wife. Now he has to deal with her blabbing his substance abuse problem to Vanity Fair. Once again the magazine scores a tell-all interview. People reports:

"I knew something was happening but I didn't know what," Swank tells Vanity Fair magazine. She also says her ex has been fighting his problem for years, and he is sober now. She does not name what substance he abused.

But, she says in excerpts from the interview obtained by the New York Post, "When I found out, it was such a shock because I never thought he'd keep something from me. And yet, on another level, it was a confirmation of something I was feeling that was keeping us from being completely solid."

She goes on to say, "I don't want to make it seem like that's the sole reason; there were other factors. But that just kind of blew it open. It made me look at things a lot deeper. That's when you realize it's not going to work."

I actually never really liked them together. They just didn't match but I still hate to see another Hollywood marriage end.

At the Golden Globes Hilary announced she was not single and she was working on making her marriage work. It seems she has now been spotted with her husband Chad and her wedding band back on her hands. That's more than I can say for Madonna.

Chad and Hilary are Divorcing

PopSugar — Fri, 26 May 2006 09:19:39 -0700

We know the drill. It's a Friday before a holiday weekend. Let the divorce announcements roll in. The first official big news of the weekend is Chad Lowe and Hilary Swank are officially ending their marriage. They tried to reconcile but it looks like the couple could not end up making it work. People reports:

"Hilary Swank and Chad Lowe have jointly decided to divorce," the couple's lawyer, Jeffrey A. Bernstein, tells PEOPLE. "They continue to be friends and have the utmost respect for one another."

The couple, who wed in 1997, announced in January that they were separating. "Hilary and Chad have decided to separate, but they are hopeful they'll be able to get through this tough time," Swank's rep, Troy Nankin, said in a statement at the time.

I wonder what got in between these two who seemed like the real thing.

Hilary Swank Talks Life and Love

PopSugar — Thu, 08 Feb 2007 17:17:49 -0800

Hilary has definitely come a long way since starring in The Next Karate Kid and Beverly Hills 90210. At the age of 32, she's already won two Oscars and is considered one of Hollywood's top actresses. Things aren't always perfect for the actress. Besides recently going through a divorce she also says she felt like an outsider as a child. In the March issue of Marie Claire magazine Hilary talks all about life, love and becoming an award-winning actress. Here's more:

On her motivation to become an actor
"As a kid I felt like such an outsider. I didn't belong. I fought for my place in the world. And part of what brought me to being an actor is that I would watch movies and there would be characters I could relate to. I felt my place within that, within them."
On her divorce [to actor Chad Lowe]
"In life we have expectations of how things should turn out... Ending my marriage isn't something I take lightly. But it was the right thing to do."
On her intense personality
"People do call call me intense. I can see why. I can. But, I don't like the word 'intense'-I prefer 'focused," she says. "I am a lay-it-on-the-table kind of girl. No nonsense. I'd rather have honest relationships, because life is too short to beat around the bush. Honesty shows that you really care about someone. I live by that."

Next up Hilary will once again show us just how ~~intense~~ focused she can be in The Reaping where she plays a Christian missionary who loses her faith. Sounds like someone's going for another Oscar!

Fox Party in Pasadena

PopSugar — Mon, 22 Jan 2007 06:25:06 -0800

Who needs Sundance when you can make your own winter wonderland right in Pasadena? Okay, it might not be as glamorous as Park City in the end of January, but it can't be all bad if Wentworth is there. The Fox All-Star Winter TCA Press Tour party included our favorite Monday night stars. We already reminded you that tonight is the return of Prison Break and as usual we are sucked into 24 after just one week. Kiefer looks in much better spirits than he has been on the show. Minnie Driver was also there. I assume she was plugging her new show on FX in March called The Riches. Stay tuned.
