It’s always interesting to me when two different tabloids have basically the same take on a situation. I suppose they could be equally wrong, but I always think “heh… there’s something there.” Well, the tabloids have often been in lock-step with certain stories about LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian. Thus, I’ve begun to think the worse of their relationship. Meaning that I think Eddie is a compulsive womanizer and LeAnn Rimes is trying to convince herself and everyone else that he’s totally enamored with her. Anyway, Star Magazine and In Touch Weekly don’t really have similar stories this week, but the subtext is the same: LeAnn is desperate for Eddie to include her in his life, and she will do anything for him. First up, In Touch’s version:
After LeAnn Rimes performed at an LA tree-lighting ceremony, Eddi grabbed her hand and the duo cozied up together. Eddie has a lot to be thankful for, as LeAnn has been showering him with gifts!
“LeAnn bought him a watch from Hermes, a Chrome Hearts sterling silver bracelet with sapphires, tons of cashmere sweaters and more,” her pal reveals, although her rep denies it.
It’s come at a perfect time – just as his split from estranged wife Brandi is getting more difficult.
“LeAnn knows he is going through a hard time right now, and she feels like maybe doing these things for him will make him smile.”

So she’s his sugar-mama, basically. Here’s the thing – if I really thought it was just about sex, and LeAnn wanting to keep her “piece”, I would just think “Go ahead, whatever, good for her.” But I think she really loves Eddie. And that’s just… sad. Next up, Star Magazine. They claim that Eddie’s parents hate LeAnn, and she’s just trying to get them all together for Christmas. Oh, and Eddie’s parents are Cuban, which I didn’t know! Learn something every day:
What does LeAnn Rimes want for Christmas? The blessing of Eddie Cibrian’s family! “Eddie’s parents don’t like LeAnn,” says a source. “They think she’s a home wrecker who used her money to win him.”
And that’s causing big problems as the holidays approach for LeAnn and Eddie, who have been shacking up since he left his wife this summer.
“LeAnn has wanted to have a big family Christmas dinner, and she was going to include Cuban dishes in honor of the Cibrians’ heritage. But Eddie’s folks refuse to come,” says the source. “It doesn’t help that Eddie isn’t really stepping in on her behalf. He tells LeAnn to just give them time, but she’s hurt.”

Eh, she’s really trying to force herself into every part of his life, which has a whiff of “desperado” to me. That being said, Eddie’s parents raised a compulsive womanizer, and I dislike this whole “it’s all LeAnn’s fault” crap. They’re both to blame. And Eddie was screwing at least one other woman while he was married to Brandi. Now, it could be that Eddie’s parents know he has a zipper problem, and they simply don’t like LeAnn or the way she’s trying to insinuate herself into the family. Which is a fair criticism, in my book.
And what do they think of their son?
She looks the the Avatar’s twin with the pictures side by side….
Um put some of that blame onto your womanizing son. Im pretty sure he cheated on his wife before leann. Whats w/ all these cheaters lately anyways? This creep, Tiger, Duhamel, that Cash Warren guy. All cheating on beautiful women! Crazy!
So what is their opinion of their son, being able to be lured away from his wife and family all in the name of money and connections?
It isn’t as thought their baby boy is all innocent and wide eyed in the whole matter.
(Peeking in)
Looks like you guys have this one covered.
Yep, how about that son of yours?
Thank you Bella…that is exactly what I was going to ask!
Even though I’m not that impressed with Leanne I think Eddie’s folks should STFU since they raised such an honoralbe and stand up guy, not. It looks like we are all in agreement on this thread.
wow—lmao!!!
You know what I think is even more sad? I think she truly believes she is good looking. Blehhh!!!
H, blame the son. His folks didn’t make him a cheat. Thats on him.
Considering both parties were married and left their respective spouses, I think they’re BOTH home wreckers!
She’s lucky she can afford to buy a man, because she’s truly unfortunate looking.
When Eddie dumps her stupid ass I still won’t have any sympathy. He cheated on his wife. Does she actually think he’s going to be faithful to her?
@ lucy2 – Yeah, it’s kind of interesting to note that his parents don’t seem concerned about HER marriage, which also fell apart in the face of their affair. Some parents really cannot see anything their children do as negative… it’s an attitude that tends to breed entitled idiots, so I guess we should have known.
LeAnn Rimes’ “surprise pregnancy” announcement in …3……..2……
LeeAnn Rimes doesn’t give a f*ck what anybody thinks. At least she’s not a famewhore.
well said so far, but not all parents are like Eddie’s. My friends have a son who is a liar and a cheat, but they are both very nice people honest and trustworthy, but their son is a waste of space. He is the only son and also they have never been short of a bob or two they have not spoilt him. We are all adults and responsible for our own mistakes. Saying that if that was my son I would kick his ass whatever his age.
SUMODO
Not a famewhore, don’t make me laugh, she is loving this attention, and so is he.
What’s weird about that Eddie guy is that I even think he’s creepy on TV when I see CSI Miami. Total ick factor.
Moore your right he’s a grown man, their blame of her when this isn’t the 1st time he cheated just hit me as a little hypocritical.
I fully support Eddie’s parents. Let’s remember that it was LeAnn who made sure this affair was public. She initially exposed the affair because
Eddie wasn’t going to leave Brandi. It was LeAnn who stalked and pursued until the marriage was wrecked. So yes, LeAnn is a homewrecker and Eddie is no better. LeAnn intentionally created this mess and continues with it for publicity. Grandma Cibrian will see her grandchildren less and less from now on because Eddie’s marriage was bad and LeAnn didn’t have the decency to stay out of it. I heard Faith Hill sing today and I want to share a child’s thoughts with Eddie and Grandma.
“Where are you Christmas? Why can’t I find you? Why have you gone away? Where is the laughter you use to bring me? Why can’t I hear music play? My world is changing, I’m rearranging. Does that mean Christmas changes too? Where are you Christmas? Do you remember the one you use to know? I’m not the same one, see what the times done. Is that why you have to let me go? What did I do wrong?” God bless Deane, Brandi and the children and let them forget last Christmas’ lies.
leanne is not a famewhore??? this affair with eddie has made her “relevant” again in the showbiz world, and she knows it. it’s sad that she accomplished this relevance by compromising her self-respect. ugh, and eddie will continue to womanize.
My daughter just made a good point, who would you want to spent time with at Xmas your grandchildren or your son’s mistress ? NO CONTEST.
Kudos Val on your comment.
I think it is great that his parents want nothing to do with her. SleezAnn made sure the affair was discovered so BG would leave him. She has bought and paid for this piece of trash. I disagree with the statement that she loves him, don’t think she has a clue as to what love is. The price to keep him continues to climb and at some point he will just leave. It will not matter if she gets pregnant, having kids did not stop him before. They are both cheaters, and will get what they give. Best Wishes To BG and her children, consider EC as a sperm donor and raise those boys to RESPECT women and be men of honor.
I am siding with Eddies soon to be ex-wife on her take on Leann when she called her a stalker. Leann appears desperate and Eddies is way to hawt for her. He will soon get tired of her, but not before he gets all the gifts he wants first. She is not a keeper.
Latest poop has Brandi taking a knife to Eddie’s tires on his Harley motorcycle in August. Guess this info is on his recently filed custody papers. According to E!, she confirms and says he broke her heart and she thought of the Carrie Underwood song about Lwhen he cheats”. Not that any violence is condoned, but all this anger could have been averted if EC was a man and left rather than have affair after affair and lie and lie….SleezAnn and Eddie, waht a pitiful pair of losers.
I like that Eddie’s family is sticking it to LeAnn by making sure she knows she’s not acceptable in a “family way”. Very appropriate.
If LeAnn (and Eddie) had any real respect for “family” they would have held off (getting together) until they were each separated from their respective spouses.
Whatever – she will never be as much of a homewrecker as he is.
Psst. Leann, if he cheats WITH you, he’ll cheat ON you.
So what Fern? Are you this outraged over serial cheater Tiger Woods and his trail of tarts?
She was cuter when she was chubbier.
What ever happened to Leann’s spouse? Guess his 15 min. are up. I think she’s using Eddie as a Stud, Bet she’ll announce with child after holidays
Come on people do the math
Eddie with a non famous other woman = no press after the attention dies down.
Eddie with a famous other woman he met on the set of a movie = More PRESS for him and his new “love.
I feel for the Grands because what some one posted above they will see less of the grandkids now that the parents are divorced.
It will fall on Eddie to take them to his parents and I just don’t think with all his running around with his hand full of the gifts that Leann seems to buying him with, just don’t see it happening.
And for all the people putting the blame on his parents I have to say we don’t know, Eddie is a really a good looking guy if anything I think his looks entitled him to think that his crap don’t stink and the women that put up with his two timing ways and taking him back, lead to his womanizing ways of today, I bet he had a ton of girlfriends in high school that let him get away with everything and anything.
Leann had better guard against Eddie. Once the relationship fizzles, he might come out with incriminating videos of the two of them or acuse her of stalking. He is one class-less act; No question he thinks he is goodlooking but he has squinty eyes, too soft spoken for a guy and weak-jawed: in short NOT A PRIZE CATCH
i thought he was creepy right from when he started working on Young and the Restless.
I find it very strange that not one person has any proof of all of the stuff they read in these magazines but there are so many critics to talk about LeAnn Rimes when prior to this situation with Eddie Cibrian there has been nothing bad to say about her. Her own , soon to be ex has nothing bad to say about her. She supposedly has a squeaky clean image until now. On the other hand, look at all the things that Mr. Cibrian has done, c’mon. Put the blame where the blame belongs. The big kicker is that this is so, so, so common in actors, actresses and so forth and these two are getting a tongue lashing like they killed someone. Yes, people are hurt, they will heal. Who knows, BG may end up with a million times better man. Things happen for a reason. This similaity has happened to me. You know what, you may love someone, but someone else may come along that you Love even more and differently. It is hard to explain. This is not the first time this will happen in life to people and it unfortunately will not be the last. Everybody tries to outdo the next guy. It really is not anybodies business about EC & LR or anybody else. It wouldn’t be talked about or in a magazine if it were you or I. Nobody will ever know the true facts except the ones involved. Do you think those magazines tell you the whole truth, they want you to buy them. Even when people tell a story, there are always things that are changed when they are told to someone else and so on. I honestly believe that LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian do Love each other. And anyway, IT IS NONE OF OUR BUSINESS.
Oh Fern, calm down.
I was asking you a question, not suggesting that you speak about Tiger Woods. I just wonder if you are so outraged over other celebrities cheating, and also why you feel you know so much about the intimate details of their lives, when I doubt you know them personally to make such assumptions about the whole relationship between LeAnn and Eddie.
LeAnn and Eddie are both creeps. They think of themselves first and can’t understand why people can just get over all the crap they did. They hurt children deeply and they desirve all the karma that is coming to kick them in the buttttt! Can’t wait to see what it will be. Must be hard waiting for the doom to hit.
Kathy- I agree with a lot of things you said but when children are involved it changes the situation. Grownups are responsible for their actions. These two flaunted their affair. Being in love doesn’t give anyone the right to hurt others. Leann is just as guilty as Eddie because she was a willing participant. I bet if the shoe was on the other foot the situation would have been different. When you go public with your affairs you leave yourself open to public criticism and tabloid exposure and these two were indifferent so if there is a backlash against these two clowns they deserve it..
“They think she’s a home wrecker who used her money to win him.”
His own family thinks he can be bought? Sweet.
