Rather than have a separate thread for each time celebrity couples get engaged, married, separated, divorced, etc I thought I'd start a singular thread for all status changes.

Not sure how old this news is but apparently Ariana Grande and Dalton Gomez are separated now, and she is now with Ethan Slater.

Can this thread include pregnancies and births too?


I create this thread for those:

http://www.inthe00s.com/index.php?topic=64685.0

Will this be the designated place for “Back on the Market” threads? ???

Game show host and semi-celebrity Wayne Brady has come out as pansexual:

https://people.com/wayne-brady-comes-out-as-pansexual-exclusive-7569897

Excerpt:

There’s a lot going on, but Brady finds a quiet corner of the home and sits down. He takes a deep breath, leans back into the sofa and opens up to PEOPLE. Below is Brady's story in his own words.

I’m pansexual.

In doing my research, both with myself and just with the world, I couldn't say if I was bisexual, because I had to really see what that was, especially because I really have not gotten a chance to act on anything. So, I came to pansexual because — and I know that I'm completely messing up the dictionary meaning — but to me, pan means being able to be attracted to anyone who identifies as gay, straight, bi, transsexual or non-binary. Being able to be attracted across the board. And, I think, at least for me for right now, that is the proper place. I took pan to mean that not only can I be attracted to any of these people or types physically, but I could be attracted to the person that is there.

The wife of South Carolina congressman Jeff Duncan has filed for divorce, alleging that he partied with numerous other women and “has an ongoing sexual relationship” with a lobbyist named Liz Williams.  :o

https://www.fitsnews.com/2023/09/22/spouse-of-south-carolina-congressman-alleges-affair-sues-for-divorce/

According to Melody Duncan, her husband “has committed adultery during the course of the parties’ marriage with Liz Williams and at least one other woman.”

The other “other woman” was not named in the complaint.

“As recently as August 28, 2023, defendant hosted a ‘Faith and Freedom BBQ’ where he spoke to the crowd, among other things, about his marriage to (Melody) – calling her a supportive and loving wife and portraying an image of himself as a dedicated, dutiful husband,” the complaint alleged. “Upon information and belief, (Jeff Duncan) then left the next day and went directly to the home of his paramour, Liz Williams, in the Washington, D.C. area.” ;D

Britney Spears Reveals She Had an Abortion Because Justin Timberlake ‘Didn’t Want to Be a Father’ 
The pop icon will release her memoir, The Woman in Me, on Oct. 24

-https://people.com/britney-spears-justin-timberlake-pregnancy-abortion-exclusive-8362622

In her upcoming memoir The Woman in Me, the pop icon, 41, reveals that when she dated Justin Timberlake, she became pregnant with his baby but had an abortion, PEOPLE confirms.

“It was a surprise, but for me, it wasn’t a tragedy. I loved Justin so much. I always expected us to have a family together one day. This would just be much earlier than I’d anticipated,” Spears writes of the pregnancy in the book. “But Justin definitely wasn’t happy about the pregnancy. He said we weren’t ready to have a baby in our lives, that we were way too young."

A rep for Timberlake did not immediately respond to PEOPLE’s request for comment.

She writes in the book: "If it had been left up to me alone, I never would have done it. And yet Justin was so sure that he didn’t want to be a father.”

Gerontophilia:

Gerontophilia is the primary sexual attraction to the elderly. A person with such a sexual preference is a gerontophile or gerontosexual.

The word gerontophilia was coined in 1901 by psychiatrist Richard von Krafft-Ebing.  It derives from Greek: geron, meaning "old person" and philia, meaning "friendship". Gerontophilia is classified as a paraphilia, but is not mentioned in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders or International Classification of Diseases.

She either has the above, or we may amend your statement to "she appears to be rather fond of older men's money".

Yeah, it's dangerous to have children at that age though. After a certain age, the older the man is, the higher the probability of birth defects.
