Jurors in New Jersey have convicted a former Melrose Place actress of vehicular homicide.

The Star-Ledger of Newark reports the panel on Tuesday also acquitted Amy Locane-Bovenizer of a more serious charge, aggravated manslaughter, in the 2010 accident that killed a 60-year-old woman. Somerset County prosecutors said Locane-Bovenizer’s blood-alcohol level was nearly three times the legal limit when the crash occurred on a dark two-lane road in Montgomery Township.

The defense conceded she was driving under the influence. But her lawyer claimed a woman was chasing her after an earlier accident, forcing her to speed.

The actress appeared in 13 episodes of TV’s Melrose Place and in movies including Cry-Baby, School Ties, and Secretary.

Actress Mayim Bialik (The Big Bang Theory, Blossom) announced on her blog Wednesday that she and husband Michael Stone have decided to end their nine-year marriage, citing irreconcilable differences. Earlier this year, Bialik published Beyond the Sling, a book on parenting her two young children.

“Divorce is terribly sad, painful and incomprehensible for children,” Bialik wrote on her blog. “It is not something we have decided lightly. The hands-on style of parenting we practice played no role in the changes that led to this decision; relationships are complicated no matter what style of parenting you choose. The main priority for us now is to make the transition to two loving homes as smooth and painless as possible.”

She ended her post by saying, “We will be ok.”

Tags: , TV

The father of Modern Family star Ariel Winter said Monday he is willing to care for his daughter and does not believe she should be placed in a guardianship after allegations that her mother has been physically and emotionally abusive.

One day before a hearing in the case was scheduled to convene, Glenn Workman filed an objection to a petition that would strip his estranged wife, Chrisoula, of custody of the 14-year-old.

Winter has been living with her adult sister, Shanelle Gray, since Oct. 3 when a judge created a temporary guardianship for the actress. Court filings described Chrisoula Workman as abusive to her daughter, including slapping her and calling her derogatory names. The judge ordered her to stay away and not contact the actress until at least Tuesday, when the guardianship will be re-evaluated.

Glenn Workman’s objects to the contention in Gray’s initial court filing that he is not in a position to care for the teen actress.  READ FULL STORY »
