Kate Winslet defends parenting skills, Gwyneth Paltrow's Vanity Fair feud ramps up Kate Winslet says that while her children do have good relationships with their dads, they live with her and that's how it is. Picture: Stuart C Wilson IT SEEMS Kate Winslet has had an absolute gutful of people having a go at her parenting skills. To the consternation of many, Winslet has been married three times and has a daughter, Mia, and a son, Joe, with ex-husbands, Jim Threapleton and Sam Mendes (and she's pregnant with new husband Ned Rocknroll's baby). In a new interview with US Vogue, Winslet wants us all to know that her kids are just fine, thank you very much. People go, 'Oh, my God! Those poor children! They must have gone through so much. Says who?" said Winslet. "They've always been with me," she continued. They don't go from pillar to post; they're not flown here and there with nannies. That's never happened. My kids don't go back and forth; none of this 50/50 time with the mums and dads - my children live with me; that is it. That is it! Winslet said that while her children do have good relationships with their dads, they live with her and that's how it is. While Winslet's personal life may have been a topic of conversation in the interview, the big talking point is surely her very, er, smooth look on the magazine's cover. Gwyneth Paltrow allegedly emailed her friends asking them not to speak with Vanity Fair magazine about her. Picture: John Locher Source: AP The on-going feud between Vanity Fair and Gwyneth Paltrow is about to explode after editor-in-chief Graydon Carter declared the magazine will still run a piece on the actress despite her attempts to block it. "We started a story on her," editor-in-chief Graydon Carter told The Times in London. We have a very good writer and it'll run. Carter's admission comes just a little over a month after The New York Times reported that the 40-year-old star was feuding with the mag. The report alleged that the actress had written an email to her famous friends in which she asked that they not speak to the magazine if contacted about her. Paltrow, who's not averse to a little publicity, must be really worried about the story's contents. "Vanity Fair is threatening to put me on the cover of their magazine," Paltrow reportedly wrote. If you are asked for quotes or comments, please decline. Also, I recommend you all never do this magazine again. Hollywood, it seems, hasn't been overly happy with recent Vanity Fair articles, which included a piece about the role of Scientology in Tom Cruise's private life, and a report about the behind-the-scenes problems that plagued Brad Pitt's World War Z. Carter defended his magazine. "We wouldn't be doing our job if there wasn't a little bit of tension between Vanity Fair and its subjects," he said. In any given week, I can expect to hear from a disgruntled subject in Hollywood, Washington, or on Wall Street. That's the nature of the beast. He also told London's Times that he felt more compelled to run the Paltrow piece after her alleged email went public. "Well, she sort of forced my hand," he explained. "Some famous people believe that they live in a cone of celebrity that protects them," he said. But it doesn't really exist anymore in LA unless they stay in. Previously unpublished photos of late singer Amy Winehouse, allegedly on a drug binge, have been offered for sale. Picture: AP Matt Dunham Source: AP More than two years after her death, explicit photos of Amy Winehouse during a drug binge have been offered up for sale. Radaronline.com is reporting that the photos allegedly show an intoxicated Winehouse - who died of alcohol poisoning in 2011, after years of heroin and alcohol addiction - in a many compromising positions, including bending over without underwear, and in bed with husband Blake Fielder-Civil. The photos were allegedly taken on the same night Winehouse was snapped exiting a London club, with her nostrils caked in white powder. The man who took the photos told RadarOnline.com: "I met Amy, as well as Blake, on multiple occasions during the period which I spent in London a number of years back." During this particular occasion, the source said, "I got high with her and had a long bizarre conversation about Kate Moss, aliens and a**holes - a conversation which, well, lead to me taking pictures. "She was high on cocaine and marijuana and called me "MacDonald" while posing for said explicit photographs. The photographs in question have never been published and no one knows that it exists. Radaronline.com chose not to publish the photos. The 27-year-old singer was found dead in her home in London's Camden in 2011. I do drink a lot. I think it's symptomatic of my depression," Winehouse said in an interview before her death. I'm manic depressive, I'm not an alcoholic, which sounds like an alcoholic in denial. Kris Humphries was married to Kim Kardashian (pictured watching a Nets game) for 72 day. Picture: Bill Kostroun Source: AP Kris Humphries can't take a trick. The Brooklyn Nets dumped him, Kim Kardashian only stay married to him for 72 days, and now the engagement ring he gave her sold for less than half its original value at auction in New York. The ring raked in US$749,000 bucks ($786,000 -still, not too shabby) even though it was said to be worth US$2 million. The Lorraine Schwartz ring 16.2-karat emerald cut stone surrounded by 1.8-karats of side diamonds was listed by an anonymous "gentleman," (aka Humphries). Before the auction, a spokesman for Humphries said: "He has long-since moved on and is very much looking forward to a successful auction at Christie's on Tuesday, and of course to returning to the court this upcoming NBA season as a Boston Celtic." Despite its massive retail price, Christie's had valued the ring at between US$300,000-$500,000. Humphries married Kardashian in August 2011, and the marriage lasted a whopping 72 days. Humphries reportedly got a huge discount on the ring, stumping up just about the same as he got back at auction. A source said: "Kris could have never afforded such an extravagant engagement ring for Kim. He paid US$750,000 for the engagement ring. Lorraine Schwartz gave Kris the ring basically at wholesale cost. The ring would actually retail for US$2 million dollars. Kris did have other jewellers reach out to him and offer to give him a ring for free in exchange for publicity, but he didn't want to even pursue that. Kris knew how much Kim loved Lorraine's collection, and there was no other option in his mind.
