He Said/She Said – Dennis Quaid and Meg Ryan

Ah, the waters rarely run smoothly when Hollywood exes start opening up about their past relationship. I guess everyone cannot be one big, happily united family like Demi and Bruce. The latest celebrity ex couple to sling mud is Meg Ryan and Dennis Quaid. (Photo source by PH2 Mark Cavanugh and as a work of an military member, is public domain.) You may or may not remember, but these two met on the set of Innerspace in 1987 and married on Valentine’s Day 1991. They had one child together, son Jack. You might remember the 2000 film Proof of Life, … Continue reading

Celebrity Updates: It’s All About the Babies

Well, this explains a lot… Ever since Dennis Quaid’s newborn twins were accidentally given a near-fatal overdose of the blood thinner Heparin by staff at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles last fall I (along with millions of others) wondered why the actor chose not to sue the hospital for negligence. After all, Quaid and his wife took almost instant legal action against the drug maker for not labeling the blood thinner correctly. So, why let the hospital off the hook? The famous couple finally answered that question a few days ago. Apparently, the Quaid’s are not letting Cedars off … Continue reading

Celebrities Seeing Double

It looks like we may never know why Dennis Quaid decided not to sue the hospital responsible for employing the medical techs who nearly killed his newborn twins last year. Then again, actions often speak louder than words. It wasn’t until just recently that the actor spoke about the horrific incident with a reporter from the Los Angeles Times. In the interview he refused to answer questions regarding pending litigation that has been filed against the makers of heparin, the blood thinner that was inadvertently administered to Quaid’s newborn’s in massive doses. Rather, the actor said he wanted to focus … Continue reading

Celebrity Updates: Quaid’s Sue Drug Company

Who can blame them? It’s official; actor Dennis Quaid and his wife Kimberly have filed a lawsuit against the makers of heparin, the blood thinner that was inadvertently administered to their newborns in massive (and potentially deadly) doses. According to news reports, the Quaid’s filed a product liability lawsuit in Chicago and are seeking roughly $50,000 in damages. The suit claims the drug manufacturer, which is based in Illinois, was “negligent in packaging different doses of the product in similar vials with blue backgrounds.” The lawsuit further claims the company knew of previous dosage mix-ups yet failed to recall shipments … Continue reading

Update on Dennis Quaid’s Sick Twins and Slain Pro Football Player’s Celebrity Ties

It’s been a little more than a week since the tragic news broke regarding Dennis Quaid’s newborn twins becoming the innocent victims of a preventable hospital accident. When I first blogged about Quaid’s son Thomas Boone and daughter Zoe Grace having been administered a lethal dose of the blood thinner Heparin, there was no information given as to why the babies were in the hospital to begin with. Both infants were born in good health via a surrogate mother earlier this month. Brother and sister were released a few days later, but only now is information being released as to … Continue reading

Hospital Error Nearly Kills Dennis Quaid’s Newborn Twins

It’s a parent’s worst nightmare… and Dennis Quaid and his wife are smack in the middle of it. As I mentioned in a previous blog, Quaid and his wife Kimberly welcomed twins into the world on November 8th. However, the joyous moment is now being eclipsed by a horrific incident. Quaid’s son Thomas Boone and daughter Zoe Grace were accidentally given a major dose of the blood thinner heparin during their stay at Los Angeles’ Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. According to news reports, the babies are currently in stable condition in the neo-natal intensive care unit at the hospital where they … Continue reading

Stars’ New Gigs—-Daddy, Model, TV Host

It’s been more than 15 years since he’s changed a diaper, but now those diaper-less days are a thing of the past. Actor Dennis Quaid is getting reacquainted with diaper duty now that he is the proud father of twins. Thomas Boone Quaid and Zoe Grace Quaid were born today in Santa Monica, California, according to Quaid’s rep. Thomas Boone was born at 8:26 a.m. and weighed 6 lb. 12 oz., while Zoe Grace came two minutes later and weighed 5 lb. 9 oz. The twins were born via a gestational carrier – a woman who carries another couple’s baby … Continue reading

Celebrity Baby News: Wanting and Having

Megastar Demi Moore says her family needs a shot of testosterone. The actress, a mom to three teenage girls, is going public about her desire to have a son. “I wouldn’t mind a little balancing out of that estrogen,” Moore recently told TV’s “Access Hollywood.” The 44-year-old actress is mom to daughters Rumer, 18, Scout, 15, and Tallulah, 13, with ex-husband Bruce Willis, but she says she would love to add a male offspring to the clan with current husband Ashton Kutcher. A few months ago Moore told a Vanity Fair reporter that she “most definitely” wants kids with Kutcher: … Continue reading

The Parent Trap: A Nice Remake in a Sea of Bad Ones

When it comes to remakes, I’m usually skeptical to the point of completely avoiding the remake in question. After all, Cheaper by the Dozen and Yours, Mine & Ours did nothing to change my view on the needlessness of remakes of forgotten family films. However, The Parent Trap really isn’t all that forgotten. Year later, the original film remains in rotation on The Disney Channel and parents that grew up with old VHS copies have now purchased the DVD version to show their own children. Before Lindsay Lohan became the infamous celebrity she is today, she took over the role … Continue reading
