Daily Baby: Shocking Splits, Kelly Ripa Is Most-Admired Mom

Actress Kelly Rowan, 43, known for her role on The O.C., has split from her fiancé, David Thomson, who is Canada’s richest man, just weeks after giving birth to their baby girl, according to the New York Daily News.

Rumors are circling that Jodie Foster and her long-time love Cydney Bernard, have split according to U.S. tabloid reports. An insider tells the National Enquirer, “Jodie breaking up with Cydney is shocking. Right now it’s the best-kept secret in Hollywood, and it’s not just because Jodie is a legend and an intensely private person, either. She and Cydney have been together for so many years and have two children together, the potential fallout and legal wrangling from this split could be monumental.” The couple has two children together; Charles, nine, and Kit, six.

Multi-tasking morning talk show queen and mom of three Kelly Ripa was voted the most admired celeb mom in a usatoday.com poll. Kelly got 25 percent of the vote, edging out Angelina Jolie, who came in second with 23 percent. Julia Roberts and Jada Pinkett Smith tied for third with 22 percent.
