We know holding on to an old flame isn't a healthy thing to do, but as our new Break Up With Your Ex survey reveals, it takes most people months to get over an ex. This also applies in CelebLand, where celebrities seem to have more splits to their names than hit records or box office successes.
It's official: Michael C. Hall, 40 and Jennifer Carpenter, 31, who interestingly enough play siblings on Dexter, have finalized their divorce. It wraps up a process that's been in full swing for more than a year, since Jennifer filed in the summer of 2010, citing the usual "irreconcilable differences."
If you think occasionally running into your ex is awkward, try working together! And not the kind of work where you can avoid him or her by ducking behind filing cabinets. We're talking the kind where you're face-to-face daily and have to, you know, be civil and act like there was never anything romantic between you.
It looks like Michael C. Hall isn't wasting any time grieving over the end of his marriage. Although it was only publicly announced a few days ago that he and wife Jennifer Carpenter have filed for divorce, the actor has been spotted strolling around LA without his wedding ring on, which we guess means that they definitely won't be reconciling. Even more interesting are the have been rumors floating around that Michael left Jennifer, an actress whom he met while working on his TV show Dexter, for another actress on the show, Julia Stiles.
The wave of celebrity-couple breakups continues unabated. Entertainment Weekly reports that Dexter co-stars Michael C. Hall and Jennifer Carpenter have filed for divorce. The couple, who met on the set of the hit series, were married on December 31, 2008.
This list has examples of couples who combined personal and professional relationships successfully and those who could not. We'll let you make the call when it comes to whether working with a significant other can work.
Michael C Hall, the title character of Dexter, is dating his character's sister played by Jennifer Carpenter. This is weird, right? Should TV siblings be allowed to date in real life? Someone ought to look into what this is doing to the psyches of America's TV-loving public.
