Congrats to Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard! The longtime Hollywood couple (and parents to daughter Lincoln, 7 months) finally got married on Thursday, Oct. 16 --  exchanging vows in a no-frills ceremony at the Beverly Hills County Clerk's Office, Us Weekly can confirm. TMZ was first to report the news. The Veronica Marsactress, 32, and Parenthood actor, 38, are said to have arrived at the office to simply obtain a marriage license, but took up a court employee's offer to marry them in a nearby courtroom -- with Bell shedding tears, the site reports.
The pair got engaged over the holidays in 2009, but famously vowed not to wed until same-sex marriage bans were overturned nationwide.
"I don't feel appropriate taking advantage of a right that's denied to my [gay and lesbian] friends," Bell said in August 2012. "It's just kind of rude to invite everyone to a party for a rite not everyone can hold."
Thus, this past June, when the U.S. Supreme Court overturned the Defense of Marriage Act -- and Proposition 8 was overturned in California -- Bell re-proposed to Shepard via Twitter. The comic star responded in kind: "Let's bring my big, gay marriage to [Kristen] to Life!!!"
No word on how the couple are otherwise celebrating their newly wedded bliss -- but little Lincoln will surely be involved.
Bell has called motherhood "actually better than I expected . . . It's pretty wonderful."

Mary-Kate Olsen and Ashley Olsen say they are fashion-focused.Mary-Kate Olsen and Ashley Olsen, who started their TV careers at 9-months, are the founders and designers behind fashion label, The Row.Credit: Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images
Showered with praise by the fashion industry after the success of their label, The Row, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, 27, have seemingly come a long way since their days of sporting denim overalls as infants-to-toddlers-to-kids on the set of Full House. Or have they?
Those adorable and awkward outfits Michelle Tanner cycled through on the show -- think star-shaped sunglasses, magenta-hued tops and other funky '90s wear -- were actually from designers!
In an interview with Net-a-Porter's The Edit, the Olsen twins shared: “'[On Full House] we'd be in six-hour fittings three times a week, because we had to wear 12 different outfits,' Ashley recalls. The majority of the wardrobe was made up of adult pieces, including Chanel and Marc Jacobs, cut to fit."

Even then, the two found their calling in fashion: “We were designing clothes for ourselves as we were so petite,” said Mary-Kate. “So I think that is when we became obsessed with fit, and now the obsession has become a profession.”
Those enviable pieces worn by Michelle Tanner helped refine the twins' taste, since they want The Row to be a more subdued luxury brand. "If I wear certain designer brands, or too much of something, I look crazy, and I need something to break it up," stated Ashley. "If you are wearing a Chanel jacket and you need an anonymous piece that will show just how special that jacket is, I hope that is what The Row gives you."
Other fun facts for Olsen twin fans: Ashley is one inch taller than Mary-Kate, who is 5-feet-tall, and the two combined are ambidextrous! Mary-Kate is a righty, while Ashley is a lefty.

In 2010 American Idol alumna Jennifer Hudson started her weight loss journey. Two years later she had dropped more than 80 pounds and had become an official spokeswoman for Weight Watchers. The Grammy and Oscar winner has managed to keep the weight off and continues to work hard inspiring others with her story. 
Though she placed sixth on the third season of American Idol, Hudson, 32, serves as a role model for Season 2 winner Ruben Studdard, 35. The 462-pound singer is competing on Season 15 of The Biggest Loser and hopes to slim down to a healthier weight.
Hudson attended the God's Love We Deliver 2013 Golden Heart Awards in New York City on Oct. 15 where she talked about her fellow Idol alum's weight loss journey. 
"I am so proud of Ruben," she told reporters. "It’s one thing to lose weight, it’s another thing to keep it off. I do believe if he’s gone this far to make that commitment, he’ll make it.  Just keep that mindset. I was just so happy for him. It’s a journey. He has to find his niche and work in his own time."
The supportive star is currently working on her third studio album which is set for an early 2014 release. She and fiancé of five years, WWE wrestler David Otunga, are parents to son David Daniel Otunga, Jr., 4.
Hudson told Us that her perfect date night includes "sitting on our couch at home. [David will] find a series of a show, and we'll just watch the entire season. Just us."

Linda Kozlowski and Paul Hogan on January 14, 2012Linda Hogan has filed for divorce from her husband and "Crocodile Dundee" costar, Paul Hogan, after 23 years of marriageCredit: John Sciulli/WireImage.com
This marriage is done-dee. Paul Hogan's "Crocodile Dundee" costar and wife of 23 years, Linda Hogan, has filed for divorce, TMZ reports.
Linda, 51, citing "irreconcilable differences," wants spousal support from her husband, 74, who's worth approximately $20 million. She also wants joint legal and physical custody of their son, Chance, 15.
This is Paul's third divorce -- but Linda is only his second wife. Paul divorced his first wife, Noelene Edwards, after 23 years in 1981. They then reconciled and remarried a year later, only to divorce again in 1986, when it was alleged that Paul was having an extramarital affair with Linda.
The couple separated in September and Linda is requesting her maiden name, "Kozlowski," which she used for both Dundee films, be restored. The two first met in 1986 on the set of the first the first installment of the flick.
Marital issues were speculated when the couple sold their Malibu mansion to Chris Hemsworth in September.

Lauren Conrad will always be known as the "girl who didn't go to Paris" because she decided to stay in California with then-boyfriend Jason Wahler. But their summer ended in unexplained heartbreak. What The Hills didn't show was Wahler's intense struggle with alcohol addiction, which contributed to their failed relationship. 
Wahler returned to the show in 2007, claiming to be cleaning up his act, but it wasn't until his 2010 stint on Celebrity Rehab With Dr. Drew that the reality bad boy finally made a commitment to getting clean and sober. 
In a telling new blog post for HuffPost Celebrity, Wahler opened up about his struggles with addiction and how his reality TV background fueled the flame and led to him almost dying. 
"I was in the fight for my life, but I didn't realize it," the newlywed star revealed. "My mistakes and run-ins with the law always hit the wires because of my time spent on MTV's Laguna Beach and The Hills. I was quickly becoming known as the non-stop partier from Orange County, when truthfully, I was just like any other alcoholic who was humiliated because of their spiral out of control. I knew that Laguna and The Hills weren't the source of my addiction, but the overnight success, fame and cash ignited my addiction much quicker."
Wahler's addiction became so bad that he almost took his own life at one point.
"I was so uncomfortable in my own skin that I contemplated suicide a number of times, and even attempted it once," he revealed. "I took 10 times more Antabuse (a popular drug that helps alcoholics abstain from drinking) than I was supposed to in an effort to take my own life, but was saved after being rushed to the hospital and receiving treatment for my overdose. That was about four years ago, and I have now been sober for three."
After completing Season 4 of Celebrity Rehab, Wahler was in a much better place. He made amends with Conrad, who got engaged to boyfriend William Tell last weekend -- the same weekend Wahler himself got married.
The California native credits much of his sober success to model Ashley Slack, his new bride. It's been a long journey for the star, but he remains committed to keeping clean. 
"I now take pride in how I look, and live a healthy lifestyle that is reflected in my physicality," he said. "I could see the obvious difference between who I was then at 19 and who I have become now -- and believe the public can see the same, too, despite my past reputation."

Matthew Perry and Lizzy Caplan at the US Open on September 8, 2011Matthew Perry does a good job of keeping his personal life under wraps. He does such a good job, in fact, that he managed to end a long-term relationship with Masters of Sex star Lizzy Caplan without anyone finding out. The couple, who first started dating in 2006, quietly broke up back in 2012, a source confirms to Us Weekly.

Matthew Perry does a good job of keeping his personal life under wraps. He does such a good job, in fact, that he managed to end a long-term relationship with Masters of Sex star Lizzy Caplan without anyone finding out. The couple, who first started dating in 2006, quietly broke up back in 2012, a source confirms to Us Weekly.
"It happened a year and a half ago," the insider says. "They haven't been together for a long time."
Tellingly, Caplan demurred when asked about Perry during a recent interview with the U.K.'s Independent and hinted that she took pride in her anonymity. "I can stand right next to paparazzi, and I do that sometimes," she said. "I'm close with people who are far more famous, and they know how to avoid attention." 
That doesn't mean she's hiding, though. The actress, who has also appeared on True Blood and New Girl, was recently spotted on a date with a mystery man at Cleo at the Redbury Hotel in Hollywood.
Perry, for his part, has been busy with work and personal projects. Though his NBC sitcom Go On was canceled last spring after just one season, the 44-year-old actor isn't sitting idly by.
He recently turned his Malibu beach house into a sober living facility called Perry House, for men who need help transitioning from rehab to the real world. (Perry himself has a history of drug and alcohol problems.)
"The thing that I'm most proud of in my life," he told ABC News earlier this year, "is that if a stranger came up to me and said, 'I can't stop drinking. I can't stop drinking. Can you help me?' I can say, 'Yes, I can help you.'"

Things may not be looking good for Gwyneth Paltrow. Despite the 41-year-old actress' attempts to prevent a story from running in Vanity Fair, editor-in-chief Graydon Carter announced on Sunday, Oct. 13 that their article will still run. Now, on Friday, Oct. 18, The New York Post's Page Six reports that the writer for rumored takedown piece is investigating whether Paltrow had an affair with Miami billionaire Jeff Soffer.
According to Page Six, sources say Vanity Fair has been looking into Paltrow's friendship with Soffer, who is the owner of Miami's Fontainebleau Hotel. "Vanity Fair is asking if Gwyneth had an affair with Jeff back in 2008 when he reopened the Fontainebleau," an insider told Page Six. "He flew her in for the party, and she stayed at his house." (Paltrow's rep told Us Weekly Friday that Page Six's report is "ridiculous." The spokesperson added, "She has been friends for him for a long time. Chris [Martin] is friends with him as well. He flew down a dozen friends. There was no romantic relationship.")
Paltrow has two children, Apple, 9, and Moses, 7, with husband Chris Martin, whom she wed in 2003. Soffer, meanwhile, married former Fashion Star host Elle Macpherson in July 2013.
The New York Times issued a report in September that the Iron Man 3 actress allegedly wrote an email to her celebrity friends asking them not to speak to Vanity Fair. "Vanity Fair is threatening to put me on the cover of their magazine," she reportedly wrote in May of this year, per a witness who saw the email in question. "If you are asked for quotes or comments, please decline. Also, I recommend you all never do this magazine again." Vanity Fair's Carter admitted to the Times of London on Oct. 13, "We started a story on her. We have a very good writer and it'll run."
The New York Post initially reported on Paltrow's visit with Soffer when it occurred in 2008, claiming they left the hotel together in his Bentley and she joined him on his yacht with Kate Hudson the next day. But Paltrow's rep told the paper at the time, "Jeff Soffer is a friend of Gwyneth."
Paltrow has been outspoken about her marriage with Coldplay frontman Martin, saying it hasn't always been blissful. "It's hard being married," she told Glamour U.K.'s June 2013 issue. "You go through great times, you go through terrible times. We're the same as any couple."
She also told Refinery 29 last month that infidelity isn't necessarily a deal-breaker. "I would like to think that I would be forgiving and/or forgiven, but I can't give an honest answer as I haven't really experienced that," Paltrow said.
