Daily Baby: Will Smith’s Secret to Marriage Success, Dina + Denise on E!, Shiloh Turns 2
Will Smith shared the secret to his 10-year marriage with Jada Pinkett on Ellen Degeneres' show yesterday saying that "divorce isn't an option" for the power couple. "It's really
that simple. And I think that's the problem with [Hollywood] – there are so
many options. So a huge part of the success for [us] is that we
just removed the other options."
Celebumoms Denise Richards and Dina Lohan debuted their reality shows on E! over the long weekend to largely negative reviews. We caught a few minutes of each and thought the moms came off pretty badly. Did any Mommywood readers tune in? If yes, what did you think?
And Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt turns two today! Happy Birthday Shiloh!

Tori Designs Her Dream Nursery—With Help from Serena & Lily
When we caught up with Tori Spelling on Bump Day at Baskin Robbins this week, she told Mommywood how excited she was about having a girl. Now, if only she and husband Dean could only settle on a name for their little angel. “We have a couple of names we like,” says Tori, due in June. “With Liam (Tori’s now 14-month-old son)it was a no brainer. We thought of Liam -- and that was it. With our baby girl, we’ve been going back and forth, and back and forth with names. We think it’s a sign that we should wait to see her.”
One thing Tori has decided on: the look of her daughter’s nursery. The reality TV star declares that her coming daughter is going to have the chicest, girliest, all-pink nursery around – and Tori is designing it by herself. How did she come up with her grand vision? In part by perusing the book, Serena & Lily: Nursery Style, a beautiful how-to guide to creating sumptuous, one-of-a-kind baby rooms. Written by Serena Dugan and Lily Kanter, designers of the eponymously named bedding line, and Modern Mom’s editorial director Alison Singh Gee, Nursery Style
leads readers through all the fun and exciting steps to designing a nursery that’s as unique as your child, and inviting for your whole family to spend time in.
Serena & Lily’s bedding has graced the rooms of Britney’s son Sean Preston and Ben Affleck’s daughter Violet – a pretty great club for Tori’s darling to join. Check out Serena & Lily’s line of crib, twin and queen bedding, and scoop up Serena & Lily: Nursery Style at Amazon.com.

Daily Baby: Jessica + Cash Quietly Wed, Angie + Brad Shop for the Twins
Jessica Alba and boyfriend Cash Warren were married on Monday in a ceremony so private that even the actress' brother, Josh, didn't know about it! When Us Weekly told him about the wedding, he said, "My sister!? I'm going to have to call her!"
While in Cannes to promote Kung-Fu Panda and The Changeling, Angelina Jolie stopped into children's boutique Bonpoint to shop for her soon-to-arrive twins, People Magazine reports. She and Brad also picked up dresses for Shiloh's upcoming 2nd birthday. When asked by an employee if she was expecting boys or girls, the actress said, "I don't know yet – we don't want to know."

Mommywood Spotlight: Meet Melanie Roach
Athleti-mom and Olympic hopeful Melanie Roach is one tough cookie. The New York Times reports that the mom of three kids (one of whom is severely
autistic) can lift 238 pounds over her head. Standing at 5'1'' and weighing in at 117 pounds, Melanie was set to try out for the 2000 Olympics when a herniated disc in her back ruined her chances.
But now she’s gearing up for 2008, with the help of her hubby, Washington state legislator Dan Roach. According to the Times, "From 1 a.m. to 4 a.m., Dan takes care of Drew (the couple's autistic son), when he often throws what the family calls parties, jumping on the bed, opening and shutting the bedroom door 20 times, breaking into fits of giggles.” Cheers to a supportive hubby and dad and good luck, Melanie, in the Summer Games—we’ll be rooting for you!
