Melissa Rycroft has revealed that she has swine flu. “I am indeed recovering from a bout of the H1N1 flu virus,” the former Bachelor star, 26, tells Usmagazine.com exclusively.
“Like most people who become infected, I thought I had a mild case of the common flu, but when my symptoms exacerbated, I immediately went to the hospital where I was diagnosed with H1N1 and given the proper medications to cure the infection.”
She said she learned a lesson from fiancé Tye Strickland’s mother, who is a nurse: Get checkups and get better. “I want to stress to people how easy it is to battle this flu when you take the proper steps such as seeking the care of a doctor,” she tells Us. “I’m a clear case that by paying diligent attention to your health, it’s easy to overcome this illness and be healthy again.”
And she also wants you to know that Star Magazine is full of crap. She took to her website to put all our hearts at ease.
Just wanted to share with you guys this hilarious story that Star mag wrote about Lamar’s and my marriage. According to Star, our marriage is on the rocks because I threw a fit when Lamar refused to give me a massage!!! I seriously died when I read that! LOL.
Star is known for doing evil, fake and RIDICULOUS stories about my family. Remember the cover story, “Kardashians At War”? Honey please. They are becoming the Enquirer. Next thing you know they’ll be saying that Kourtney is giving birth to a cat! LOL. All of their stories are absurd but at least we get a good laugh from their lies.
Married life is incredible and I’ve never been so happy. I feel so blessed to have Lamar and I can’t wait to spend my life with him!
Fueling rumors of a possible hookup? Kristin does have a man-eater reputation to live up to! Earlier that day she was filming scenes with Justin. So lunch with Justin and dinner with Brody? Just a day in the life of The Hills “stars”!
After failed summer flings with Bradley Cooper and Gerard Butler, Jennifer Aniston and John Mayer are back on, reports the new issue of Us Weekly (on stands now).
“He really got to her, and she’s hooked on him,” a source tells Us. “She just can’t let go.”
The couple first got cozy in April 2008 after spending five sexy days together in Miami, but went on to split twice — most recently in January 2009.
A source close to Mayer, 31, tells the new issue of Us, “They are very close. They remain great friends. He thinks she’s amazing, nice and smart, and he has nothing but respect for her.”
Although they dined separately in NYC on Sept. 22, a source tells Us they met later that night at the Four Seasons Hotel. Other reports have claimed they’ve been texting each other and recently dined with Aniston intimates Courteney Cox and David Arquette.
Aniston, 41, has said she “deeply, deeply cares” about Mayer, whose next album, Battle Studies, hits stores Nov. 17.
Seconds a source to Us: “There’s something about John that she just can’t resist.”
LeAnn Rimes, who is divorcing husband Dean Sheremet following her affair with actor Eddie Cibrian, has revealed her new album is inspired by her turbulent love life.
LeAnn Rimes’ next album is inspired by her marriage split.
The 27-year-old singer – who is getting divorced from Dean Sheremet following her affair with her ‘Northern Lights’ co-star Eddie Cibrian – has poured her heartbreak into her new material, which is due to be released in the spring.
She told People magazine: “Most of the stuff I’ve written myself, so it’s definitely my life. The subjects of the tunes are down the middle between heartbreak and love.”
LeAnn has found writing new material helped her come to terms with the changes in her personal life.
She explained: “Part of my therapy is to write. I write with a lot of my best friends, so most of our meetings are therapy sessions that turn into songs.
“I’m great. I’m really happy and I am enjoying being back between Los Angeles and Nashville. With work and my personal life, everything’s good. It really is.”
Despite their split, LeAnn and Dean – who were married for seven years – remain friends.
Dean recently said he still speaks to LeAnn, adding he is “pretty good” at the moment.
LeAnn and Eddie’s relationship was first exposed in March, although she initially denied it.
Although she has not publicly confirmed the reports, LeAnn announced she was divorcing Dean in September – shortly after Eddie’s wife Brandi Glanville announced she was seeking a divorce.
