Hilarie Burton has recently shared insight into her long-lasting relationship with husband Jeffrey Dean Morgan.

Speaking to E! News, the One Tree Hill alum reflected on her successful marriage with Jeffrey, saying, “Obviously communication is a very big deal and also anticipating that your partner is going to go through phases and changes.”

“We both have gone through different professional phases where maybe we’re super ambitious in one phase of our life, and then we’re nesting in another phase of our life,” continued the 42-year-old.

Hilarie remarked, “And we try to work in tandem so that we’re each compensating for each other.”

“I’m certainly not the same person I was at 26,” remarked the Dawson’s Creek actress.

Hilarie told the outlet, “Now I’m like a warmer, more aggressive version and he seems to like that.”

While talking about anniversary celebration, Hilarie mentioned, “I’m going to see him next week to celebrate a little bit early.”

“He’s travelling for work, and so I’m going to see him for a whirlwind 24 hours and no one should expect to be in touch with us. It’s kind of great,” she explained.

Elsewhere in the interview, Hilarie talked about her life with children and husband on their upstate New York farm, calling her home a “little sanctuary”.

“My son is little me… He has gotten involved with everything in our community. He’s doing a homecoming dance and he’s in the school play and he is rowing crew. This child is busy. My daughter is the animal person at the farm,” pointed out the actress.

Hilarie added, “So, I have my town kid and my country kid, and they balance each other really, really nicely.”

Eric Roberts knew early on that he couldn’t be the father that Emma Roberts deserved.

In his new memoir Runaway Train: Or the Story of My Life So Far, the 68-year-old actor reflected on his difficult journey as a parent after separating from Emma’s mother, Kelly Cunningham, when their daughter was just seven months old.

“I had abandoned Kelly when Emma was just seven months old,” he wrote.

Despite the challenges, Eric described the joy of becoming a father. “The pregnancy was very exciting. I fell madly in love with Emma the first minute I saw her,” he shared.

Eric even recalled calming baby Emma with a familiar tune. “When I started singing ‘Happy Birthday’ to her, she must have recognised my voice because she calmed right down.”

Yet, Eric admits that his enthusiasm for fatherhood didn’t translate into being the father Emma needed. “I loved my little daughter with the strength of Hercules, despite my own weaknesses… I couldn’t handle being a parent,” he confessed.

Now, he sees Emma — a mother herself — as the nurturing figure he couldn’t be.

Eric attributes much of his struggle to drug addiction, writing, “The biggest consequence of my drug use was losing Emma. I was still impossibly coked up when she was born, which explains everything.”

Emma has been estranged from Eric ever since he lost custody over her. 

Justin Bieber is keeping his attention on family life amidst the recent arrest of his longtime friend and collaborator, Sean “Diddy” Combs.

A source told People Magazine that although he is aware of the disturbing charges against Diddy, the 30-year-old singer is focused on his wife, Hailey Bieber, and their newborn son, Jack Blues, whose arrival was announced just last month.

“He’s aware of Diddy’s arrest and all the allegations,” the insider shared, referencing Diddy’s September 16 arrest on sex trafficking and racketeering charges.

However, the source added that Justin isn’t letting the situation consume him, noting, “It’s not anything that he wants to focus on.”

Since becoming a father, Bieber has been in a “happy bubble,” according to the source, prioritising his role as a dad and husband

“He just wants to focus on being a great dad and husband,” they added.

Diddy, 54, was arrested at a New York City hotel after a federal grand jury indicted him. The unsealed indictment revealed that he faces charges including sex trafficking and transportation for prostitution.

Upon Diddy’s arrest, fans uncovered an old “creepy” video of Diddy documenting his “48 hours” with a 15-year-old Bieber, after which he supposedly took the then-rising star under his wing. 

Princess Anne’s reaction to the birth of her nephew, Prince William, on June 21, 1982, was anything but conventional. 

Just after returning from a trip to New Mexico, Anne was approached by reporters who shared the news of the late Princess Diana’s first child. Her response was stark: “I didn’t know she had one.”

When pressed further about the media frenzy surrounding the new royal baby, she didn’t hold back, simply stating, “Yes.” 

While the rest of the Royal Family celebrated William’s arrival, Anne’s comments highlighted her straightforward demeanor.

A Palace insider revealed that her reaction to the birth of Prince William was influenced by the pressures she faced during that time. 

With her engagements reportedly quadrupled due to the absence of her brother and sister-in-law, Anne felt the weight of royal responsibilities.

The insider noted, “Anne works very hard and sees her sister-in-law picking up the glory. She’s sick to her back teeth with it all.”

Despite her initial response, Anne and William have since developed a close bond. 

As a father of three himself, William fondly recalls his aunt’s spirit, sharing a charming anecdote on Mike Tindall’s podcast about how she would chase her nephews around Balmoral Castle during their childhood.
