Despite all the rumours of tragedy and divorce, a little happiness has appeared in Hollywood. The first spark of happiness appeared with Lance Armstrong’s announcement. Armstrong and his girlfriend, Anna Hansen, are expecting their second child, just ten months after the birth of their son, Maxwell Edward. This will be their second child together, and Armstrong’s fifth child. The new brother or sister has already been nicknamed ‘cincoarmstrog’ and is due in October. Never fear, Armstrong is regularly updating fans on Twitter regarding the development and progress of the baby.
The second spark is also the imminent arrival of another Hollywood baby. Matt Damon and his wife Luciana Bonzán Borroso are expecting their third child. The pair met in Miami in 2003 while Damon was filming Stuck on You and Borroso was working as a bartender. The couple married in a private civil ceremony in December 2005. They have two children together, Isabella, three, and Gia, 21 months; and Luciana has a daughter, Alexia, 11, from a previous marriage. The family has not confirmed when the baby is due.
The third glimmer of hope appeared with news of engagement. Harry Potter star Bonnie Wright, 19, and Twilight star, Jamie Campbell Bower, 21, are engaged. The pair met six months ago on the set of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows and formerly confirmed their relationship in February. Currently, they have not announced a wedding date.
Finally, the fourth glimmer of hope in Hollywood is the recovery of Rock of Love star Bret Michaels. Michaels is making a great recovery following his massive subarachnoid haemorrhage (bleeding at the base of his brain stem) and subsequent stay in hospital. Michaels is predicted to make a full recovery, and even continue his summer tour. Michaels is currently stationed at an undisclosed rehabilitation facility. The traumatic scare appears to have changed Michaels, because he has now ignited rumours of reconciliation between him and his off/on partner, and mother of his two children, Kristi Gibson.
