The Jennie Garth & Peter Facinelli Split


On Monday I Tweeted that Jennie Garth and Peter Facinelli were about to announce their divorce and sure enough, yesterday they did. This is one of the more sad divorces. Sometimes you really don't care if a couple gets divorced but after 11 years of marriage and being together for 15 or 16 years or whatever timeline you prefer which shows Jennie did not cheat on her first husband with Peter you kind of expected them to be together forever. Three kids and almost two decades you kind of have to stick it out don't you? I don't want anyone to be unhappy or miserable in their marriage, but I really wanted this one to last. Now, who is to blame? They won't say, but I will. Hello Peter.

So Peter is a cheater?

Kelly said...

Fuckwad. I hope he thinks it was worth it.

Now! said...

Or perhaps Peter had a roaming peter.

Ugh... Hopefully it wasn't with Amanda Bynes...

AbderianLaughter said...

So if there is "fault" I have to assume it's infidelity on his part? Wonder if it's someone on one of his sets - Nurse Jackie or Twilight? Has he been involved in anything else lately?

funkyniblets said...

I'm pretty sure it was one of the hoors from Twilight. Wasn't there a blind item about that?

BlindGossip revealed 2 blind items about Peter having an affair with an underage actress

I wrote awhile back that I stayed married for money and security - here's the update - I'm seeing an attorney tomorrow and I am leaving my husband. I just wanted you all to know that what some of you wrote left an impression on me. I'm getting out after 25 years.

Radaronline.com wrote Peter had an affair in Canada and Jennie knew it
it's sad but it's not a surprise (they didn't twitter together since this summer and he didn't more wear his wedding ring since several months)
i hope it will be a divorce à la Willis/Moore

BigMama said...

I hate to see this happen. She seems like a descent person. However, hasn't there been rumors about him on the set of those twinkly vamps movies?

surfer said...

Good for you, Mikey (I think). Sometimes it helps to hear opinions/thoughts from those who don't have a stake in the situation, as often, they can see things a lot more clearly.

Good luck.

That's too bad about Jennie & Peter, after all the their years together, but good for her for having self-respect and not choosing to look the other way.

selenakyle said...

Haaaaa, Bynes.

Wouldn't that take the cake?

And wouldn't it also mean Peter has a huge schlong???

I would look at it, most def.

FrenchGirl said...

@mikey: if you're happy ,i'm happy for you

strawberrygirl said...

I can't believe he hooked up with an underage girl. He has three daughters and one that is like 14. What a creep.

Tempestuous Grape said...

I figured it was him...Twilight ruined him probably.

lzahart said...

How dare this guy F with Kelly Taylor??

Seriously though I think that when they got together he was totally unknown, and since then he has become the bigger star with Twi-nonsense. Can't imagine it hasn't gone to his head and he hasn't taken advantage of opportunities that he now has which he used to not have when he was only Mr. Garth/Taylor. An underage girl... when he has a approx 16 year old daughter... so gross. Just glad it wasn't a certain Ms. Bynes although at least she would be legal.

TEAM KELLY!

DixieTheNoble82 said...

Wow Mikey - many well wishes to you.

Astrid said...

After the final Twilight, he'll be back to being C-list in a year or two and none of the young babes will want to bang him anymore. And she will always be Kelly Taylor.

Ms Cool said...

Mikey - I hope you find happiness. Best wishes.

Kelly said...

Mikey, sending good thoughts your way. Good luck to you!

Cheryl said...

@Mikey--what @Ms. Cool said.

Thea said...

That's too bad. I was hoping the Twilight fame wouldn't go to his head (or other parts), but guess it did. Wonder if Enty will reveal some blind items related to Peter's philandering.

Hope Jennie comes out of this with grace and dignity without Peter or his sidepiece(s) humiliating her in the tabloids.

KLM said...

Good for you, Mikey...

It's sad when a seemingly solid marriage ends... That's too bad. Hope Jennie and her girls are okay.

califblondy said...

Good luck with everything Mikey. Don't take no crap.

Peter bugs me; he's just too pretty.

Laura said...

Way to take control Mikey!

The best revenge is living well, so I hope Jennie's new show is a hit!

EmEyeKay said...

Thank god he posted this, all the other posts for the past two days have "pssst, didja hear about...?" in the comments :)

I didn't realize she was married to him until recently. When people break up after that long, you have to wonder. Well, we don't, 'cuz Enty told us. Sad. Wonder if he's been cheating the whole time, or if this is just Twilight-induced-douchebaggery?

Sylvia said...

Mikey, which of the opinions made you finally decide to file for divorce? Good Luck!

I read at another site that Facinelli was fooling around.

Del Riser said...

Mikey, I hope this all goes well for you. How very brave. I'm wishing you the very best outcome possible!

Oh, Peter,Peter, is a cheater. Unfortunate name for a guy who would wreck a marriage with sweet Jennie.

EmEyeKay said...

Ahhh, I forgot to send @Mikey wishes for the best. I did the same thing over a year ago. I'm broke but happy to be out. Just not worth it.

Jasmine said...

I WAS right yesterday when I pointed to Peter being to blame!

The magic of Kelly Taylor lives on!
Horrah!

(and good for her for leaving his cheating pathetic ass.)

nolachickee said...

Best of luck to you, Mikey. Stay strong.

I'm upset for Jennie. She seemed so happy with him. Fuck you, Peter, if you cheated on her. May karma wreak its havoc on you if you did.

ardleighstreet said...

Good Luck Mikey!

I feel bad for their kids. It's bad enough to know they are getting a divorce but to possibly go on the internet and know it's because he has a sideskank is too much.

Henriette said...

Hey Mikey, you will be better off in the end. Good luck!

fairylights said...

Good luck to you Mikey, I'm happy for you!

I feel sorry for Jenny and their daughters, but kudos to her for getting out. Way to set a strong example for your daughters.

feraltart said...

@Mikey, good luck. Hope you find happiness. Let us know how it goes throughout your journey, we are all rooting for you.

crila16 said...

Sooo...Peter cheated with another dude from his movie, which I'm assuming is Taylor Lautner. IS EVERYONE GAY IN HOLLYWOOD!!!!

mikey said...

Awww, you're all so sweet! Many thanks for all the good wishes. You know it's bad when my children say they don't understand why I didn't leave years ago. I was trying to wait until my youngest was finished with college but she has only 1 more year to go.

@Sylvia - it was a combination of comments that make me look at my life and confess I was unhappy and life is too short. Other than my great children I don't have happy memories of the last 15 years.

tflamb said...

He cheated on her. Its my Quantity of Temptation Theory. Basically it says that the more opportunities of temptations has, the more likely they will succumb to it.

In this case between the hot Twilight girls, the many fans (older teens and in 20s), his TV show, etc the he is exposed to a huge volume of temptation every single day. Eventually he rationalized it was ok and after that first step, it becomes that much easier to repeat. Problem with repeating is it increases the likelihood of discovery which likely happened here.

PS said...

They've been separated for nearly a year and a half. He didn't "cheat." But, he also didn't want to stay married. Yes, this is sad, but they married young and got married, because she got pregnant. I think they tried, but those are hard circumstances, particularly in Hollywood. Before we crucify him as a philandering jerk, I think it's only fair to give them both credit for trying for many, may years and being committed to their children. And, to separating BEFORE exploring the dating world again. If you are unhappy in your marriage, isn't that at least the honorable thing to do? This is one split I'm not blaming anyone for.

@mikey - good for you! Life *is* too short!

This is sad b/c they were together so long. If what PS said us true, I can't really vilify him, esp. if they'd been separated so long.
