Lainey: Rough patch, happy ending

From Lainey yesterday:

Rough Patch, Happy Ending

He’d strayed before with a civilian but she can handle a civilian. Their most recent rough patch however was a result of his affair with a gorgeous one hit wonder. Professional and personal lines all tangled up, especially since there was already some history between the two, and it was a humiliation that pushed the marriage to the brink. They took some time away from each other and re-evaluated and while it comes as no shock that she was willing to preserve the white picket fence his decision to end it with his paramour did surprise some who thought he was done with that life. In the end, there is still a lot of love there. And they are doing what they think is best for the kids too.All’s well now. For now.3 famous people involved.

* Update Aug 3 - Lainey has eliminated: Sean Penn/Robin Wright Penn/Natalie Portman.

* Top suspects: Chris Martin/Gwyneth Paltrow/Natalie Imbruglia.

This has to be David Duchoveny and Teá Leoni! Gillian Anderson and David Duchoveny have a major past and many rumors about them. Ted C loves to tease with hints about them. The "X-files" was filmed mostly in Canada, as was the last movie and Lainey would know the gossip.

Speculation elsewhere has this as Chris Martin/Gwyneth Paltrow/Natalie Imbruglia, which fits the clues far better. "One-Hit Wonder" implies musician, and in most of the world, Imbruglia is a one-hit wonder with "Torn". Martin and GOOP have tried to portray the white-picket-fence image, while it's very well-known that DD and Tea have an open relationship (with the one restriction that Duchovny doesn't go anywhere near Anderson), which, to most people, doesn't bring up images of white picket fences. So, yeah, Martin and Paltrow FTW.

He wrote a few songs with her for her new album.

Fits perfectly!

POSH AND BEX!

blurry vice said...

OK now after reading your comments I concur with the above. Gwyneth/Chris/Natalie.

I think it involves David Duchoveny, Teá Leoni and Gillian Anderson (one hit wonder could imply her part on The X files, the only really relevant in her career). And I remember just a few days ago Laney talking about how Duchoveny and Tea decided once more work on their relationship, because must exist something there that´s worth saving (her words). About the Gwyneth/Chris/Natalie, well, could be indeed, but as Laney doesn´t really like Gwyneth, i have a feeling she would be a little less nice.. (maybe not?)

blurry vice said...

Lainey used to WORSHIP Gwyneth. She has toned down the past few years on the worship cause she knows so many of her readers do not like her.

From Lainey's site - Love List:

"Gwyneth Paltrow

The true star of this column and the bestest actress and the snobbiest snot and the most condescending bitch and she would never, ever want to be my friend and this is why I love her."

Henriette said...

GOOP has never publicly broken-up with her husband. David Duchveny and Tea Leoni have. There has been a lot of rumors about David Duchveny and Gillian Anderson. They also have the Vancouver, Canada connection.

Hilary said...

This is from a week or so ago, seems like it could have something to do with this:

Unknown said...

Wow, so she really toned down on Gwyn! I´m a kinda recent reader and could swear Laney hated her, by the way she talks about Gwyn´s site. Well, I´m really divided between DUchoveny & Cia and Gwyn & Cia.

Steph said...

Did anyone think she was possibly pointing at Rande Gerber and Cindy Crawford today in the Clooney post? I don't know who the third person involved wout be though. Seems like he was recently involved in some lawsuit which may account for the "professional and personal lines all tangled up" line in the post?

blurry vice said...

I think by eliminating Natalie Portman today that might have been a hint for Natalie Imbruglia.

blurry vice said...

Yeah I agree that the Cindy Crawford/George Clooney thing was weird... I don't know what it is, but she is trying to hint at something there. Either this riddle or one of her other ones.

Henriette said...

Randy Gerber was sued for breech of contract for not finishing one of his bars in a hotel. He has a lawsuit history. He was sued by Ian Schaeger of Club 54 fame for breach of contract too. I thought Lainey said Cindy Crawford and George Clooney hook-up and Randy knows about it?

I e-mailed Lainey about my David Duchoveny suspicions and she did not deny it on her site. Usually, she states the wrong guesses. I wonder if that means anything?

Steph said...

Yes, and he was also sued this year for sexual harassment by some former female employees, that's the one I had in mind. I don't know, I guess it seems like the Gwyneth/Chris/Natalie answer is almost too easy, although it certainly fits!

Here's a link on the sexual harassment case...

But Natalie Portman is not a one hit wonder, is she?

sistah2 said...

Lainey is going to have to elim. again soon - then we'll know. I like the Cindy C guess - that could fit. Its probably Gwyn tho.

blurry vice said...

f- We're not talking about Natalie Portman. IT's Natalie Imbruglia. She had a one hit wonder with the song "Torn" circa 1998.

Steph said...

Was Lainey's item today debunking the rumor about Gwyneth wanting Chris Martin to leave Coldplay a hint about this one?

sarahj said...

Lainey definitely revealed this one today, don't you think? At the very least, she dropped that it was Gwenyth and Chris as the couple, she references the whole "civilian" thing.

http://www.laineygossip.com/Star_Magazine_reports_that_Chris_Martin_cheats_on_Gwyneth_Paltrow_with_Kate_Bosworth.aspx?CatID=0&CelID=0

Could Kate Bosworth have been this one-hit wonder? Blue Crush, I guess?

blurry vice said...

I don't think that the one hit wonder was Kate Bosworth. I am still going with Natalie Imbruglia.

However, Lainey does hint that Chris Martin and Gwynnie have had cheating issues in the past. I do think that she was hinting about this riddle.

petite deluxe said...

So does this count as confirmation that Kate Bosworth was the one hit wonder?
