The actor claims that his nanny romance is less Jude Law-like and more Rodgers & Hammerstein.
Before we begin this story, does everyone remember who Ethan Hawke is? Before sliding into scandal-prone, near obscurity, Ethan Hawke used to be a bonafide A-list actor with leading roles in critically-acclaimed movies like Before Sunrise and Hanlet. He was also one-half of a Hollywood golden couple, having met and married his Gattaca co-star Uma Thurman in 1998. However, like many a Hollywood husband, Ethan’s eye reportedly began to rove and, amid allegations that he had an affair with Angelina Jolie, the couple divorced in 2004. It turns out that Angelina wasn’t the only girl he might have been cheating on Uma with. After his divorce, Ethan began publicly seeing his and Uma’s former nanny, Ryan Shawhughes, whom he supposedly had a secret 2-year relationship with while he was still married!
These days, Ethan is most likely to be found playing poker at charity benefits and giving reporters the smack-down for suggesting that his relationship with Ryan, whom he made an honest woman of in 2008, a mere month before she gave birth to their daughter, is anything less than a Rodgers and Hammerstein fairy-tale musical.
Brad Pitt wasn't the first married man Angelina Jolie allegedly slept with.
How many notches does Angelina Jolie have on her bedpost? If Andrew Morton's upcoming tell-all book can be believed, then the answer seems to be a lot. Among the many scandalous relationship bombshells that are revealed in the unauthorized biography, including affairs with Joseph Fiennes, Lenny Kravitz and her mother's boyfriend, Andrew Morton claims that Angie also slept with Ethan Hawke while he was married to Uma Thurman.
Uma Thurman called off her engagement to billionaire Arpad Busson about two months ago, according to Us Weekly, but a source says the two are still friends.
These are the significant others who we never thought would stray.
Tiger Woods recently blew the public's image of him as a squeaky-clean "good guy" by admitting that he's cheated on his wife Elin. While we're usually not too surprised when rich and famous men have affairs, there have been a few fellas whose unfaithful ways we never saw coming.
1. David Letterman - The late night funnyman was never really the subject of tabloid fodder, and he was never exactly a sex symbol. So with a wife and young son at home—and a new lease on life some years after having heart surgery—we were astounded to discover that he had fooled around with a former assistant.
2. Brad Pitt - When Brad married Jennifer Aniston, it was like the celeb world equivalent of the football captain marrying the prom queen. They were America's sweethearts, so when we learned that Brad was sneaking around on Jen with his Mr. and Mrs. Smith co-star, Angelina Jolie (the "girl who smokes behind the bleachers"), our collective heart broke for our favorite Friend. And Brad found himself tossed off a lot of "sexy" lists.
