Christina Applegate has paid an emotional tribute to her former lover who was found dead in his Hollywood apartment on Tuesday.

The body of skateboarder Lee Grivas, 26, was discovered by a neighbor.

Applegate, who dated the aspiring photographer on and off for 18 months, paid her respects to her former beau and expressed her condolences to his family.

In a statement to E! News, Applegate says, “I am profoundly saddened. Lee was an incredible human being who was an extremely important and beautiful part of my life. He is missed beyond words. He touched so many and I feel much sadness for his mother, brother and all of his family and friends.”

An investigation into Grivas’ death has been launched by the Los Angeles Police Department. Autopsy and toxicology results are pending, but initial reports suggest Grivas died from a drugs overdose.

Christina Applegate has reunited with her skateboarder ex Lee Grivas,
and moved him back in to her Hollywood home, according to reports.

The pair briefly dated after 36-year-old Applegate’s marriage to Johnathon
Schaech ended in 2006, but they split soon after.

But they were photographed leaving a Los Angeles restaurant together last
week, and now insiders claim the romance is back on.

A friend says, “Lee’s a simple guy and he took good care of Christina the
first time around. And he’d love to make a baby with her - which is Christina’s
number one priority right now.”

Applegate recently revealed her desire to become a mother: “That’s
(motherhood) something I really need to get on soon, which is difficult in the
current situation. I feel complete when I’m with babies and kids… If I end up
doing it on my own, I don’t see anything wrong with that.”

Actress Christina Applegate is so desperate to have kids she’s pressing on with parenting plans without a man in her life. The divorced Anchorman star, 36, admits she can hear her body clock ticking loudly and insists it’s the perfect time to have a baby - even though she isn’t dating.

She says, “That’s (motherhood) something I really need to get on soon, which is difficult in the current situation. I feel complete when I’m with babies and kids… If I end up doing it on my own, I don’t see anything wrong with that.”

Applegate divorced actor husband Johnathon Schaech last year after a lengthy split.

Here are all the ladies from last night!

Johnathon Schaech isn’t kissing and telling about his recent makeout session with ex-wife Christina Applegate.

A solo Schaech, 38, hit the Maxim launch party of the new Assassin’s Creed game at Hollywood hot spot Opera Tuesday night.

When asked about Us’ recent report that he and Applegate, 35 — who split in December 2005, amid allegations she cheated on him — smooched at L.A.’s Les Deux November 3, he laughed and replied, “No comment.”

When pressed further about whether they were friends again, Schaech smiled again and said, “No comment.”

On the November 3 night in question, Applegate sipped a vodka cocktail, chatted with Eva Longoria and danced to Michael Jackson’s “Thriller.” Around 1 a.m., Schaech, who arrived separately, made his way over to her table, a witness told Us — and proceeded to lock lips with his ex!

“They were laughing and hanging out,” said the witness, “and then they were kissing!”

The two spent at least 10 minutes together, and even walked around the club holding hands.

Said the partygoer, “It was clearly just a comfortable thing for them.”

No word whether they will reunite for Thanksgiving the year.

Schaech said he will be spending the holiday in Maryland with family.

“I will just be with my family and eat turkey,” he said. “You don’t want me to cook. The turkey is the dad’s job.”
