Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony are planning to divorce after seven years of marriage, reports People. The couple released the following statement to the magazine: ”We have decided to end our marriage. This was a very difficult decision. We have come to an amicable conclusion on all matters. It is a painful time for all involved, and we appreciate the respect of our privacy at this time.”

The 41-year-old singer/actress/American Idol judge and the 42-year-old Latin pop star are the parents of three-year-old twins named Max and Emme.

Sources tell EW the split will not effect their planned reality series Q’Viva — about finding the best Latin American muscial talent “from remote villages to major cities” – although the show has not yet been sold in the U.S.

Judge orders former 'Survivor' producer to Mexico to stand trial for murder

A U.S. magistrate judge on Tuesday ordered Bruce Beresford-Redman — a reality TV producer whose credits include Survivor and Pimp My Ride — to be extradited to Mexico where he will be tried for the murder of his wife, the Associated Press is reporting. The body of Monica Beresford-Redman was found in a Cancun hotel sewer cistern last year while the couple were on a vacation in an attempt to reconcile their troubled marriage. Bereseford-Redman’s lawyer argued that the investigation by Mexican authorities was significantly flawed and that his client will appeal the ruling. If convicted, Beresford-Redman, who was been jailed since his arrest in November, faces a prison sentence of 12 to 30 years.

Goshen PD confirms: Ryan Dunn's blood-alcohol level over legal limit

Pennsylvania’s West Goshen police department has confirmed that Jackass star Ryan Dunn’s blood alcohol concentration far surpassed the legal limit when during his fatal collision early Monday morning. Dunn’s BAC measured .196 percent. The legal limit in Pennsylvania is .08 percent. No other substances turned up in Dunn’s blood, however.

Through a scene reconstruction, the police department also determined that Dunn was driving between 132 and 140 miles per hour when he lost control of his car and ran off the road. The county coroner’s office previously classified the accidental death to be caused by blunt trauma and the heat of the fire from the explosion caused when Dunn’s 2007 Porsche collided with trees.

Jackass 2 crew member Zachary Hartwell was also killed in the crash.

Coroner's office confirms Ryan Dunn's cause of death

The Chester County Coroner’s Office has confirmed to EW that Jackass star Ryan Dunn, 34, and his friend Zachary Hartwell — a production assistant on Jackass Number Two — died of accidental “blunt and thermal trauma” due to yesterday’s early morning accident, in which Dunn’s 2007 Porsche careened into a patch of trees in the Pennsylvania town, then burst into flames. A toxicology report, however, is not yet complete, so questions over Dunn’s blood alcohol level will not be resolved until the full autopsy report is released likely within six weeks. Dunn tweeted a picture of himself drinking just hours before the accident.

Thirty-five may not have been one of the cardinal numbers on Lost, but you can bet it has incredible significance to former star Doug Anthony Hutchison. For that’s the number of years separating the 51-year-old actor, who played DHARMA honcho Horace Goodspeed on the hit, and his new wife, 16-year-old aspiring country singer Courtney Alexis Stodden.

The newlyweds said their vows last month in Las Vegas. The actor broke the news only his personal website, writing, “Doug Anthony Hutchison and Courtney Alexis Stodden became husband and wife on Friday May 20th, 2011, at 12 pm in The Little Chapel of Flowers in Las Vegas, Nevada.”

He added, “Mr. and Mrs. Hutchison live together happily ensconced in their Hollywood Hills home with their lil’ pups, Everette and Tuna.”

Hutchison has addressed the three-and-a-half decades age gap between himself and his new bride, telling E! Online, “We’re aware that our vast age difference is extremely controversial, but we’re very much in love and want to get the message out there that true love can be ageless.”

Sean Bean stabbed in bar brawl, doesn't let it ruin his evening

Tags: , TV

EW has confirmed that Game of Thrones‘ Sean Bean was injured in a brawl that took place at a London pub Sunday night. (The incident was first reported in London’s Daily Mail.) Bean was smoking a cigarette outside with 22-year-old model April Summers when a passerby made suggestive comments. The British actor confronted the heckler, who left at first. But he returned later and a scuffle erupted, leaving Bean with a facial bruise and a stabbing wound from broken glass. Bean, most famous for playing Boromir in the first Lord of the Rings, opted against a trip to the hospital and patched himself with a first aid kit before reportedly ordering another drink.
