Hilarie Burton & Jeffrey Dean Morgan Parents?

Jeffrey Dean Morgan (Grey's Anatomy) and Hilarie Burton (One Tree Hill), have been dating since 2009, although not many people knew about it until recently. Surprisingly, news came out that Burton gave birth months ago to their baby boy! Their romance moved fast! How did that go unnoticed? Apparently, she stayed out of the media the whole time she was pregnant. It is always hard to hide a relationship in Hollywood but a pregnancy is very difficult.

Halle Berry & Ex-Boyfriend Stay Civil For Their Daughter

It was announced a few days ago that actress Halle Berry and her model boyfriend of 5 years, Gabriel Aubry have split. However, it appears the breakup actually happened a few months ago. That may explain why they haven't been photographed together since last year. Both remain on civil terms with each other to make it the best situation for their 2-year-old daughter, Nahla. The two have even ironed out a custody agreement which will give each parent 50/50 custody.

It's sad to see a great couple end a relationship. That's more than Hollywood-that's life!
