Making It Work for the Kid
Filed under: Love Line > Sarah Jessica Parker
Could Sarah Jessica Parker have known that Matthew Broderick was effing around with a twenty something whore and turned a blind eye to it???
An insider tells the British media, "They have never had a conventional marriage, but it works for the two of them. Sure they fight like other couples but they love each other and their little boy. They are so private and hate all this silly gossip."
Another source reveals that son James Wilke is the glue that holds the two actors together, "(SJP and Broderick) had been out of love for a long time but remain married for their son. Sarah and Matthew have been struggling for years. Now they have decided to make things work - especially for the sake of their son, James."
Is that a good enough reason to stay together?
Sometimes 'staying together for the kid' makes the kid miserable cuz mommy and daddy are miserable.
Can't he find a new beard???

I hope these two work it out.

*shrugs*
hmmmm interesting
All "staying together for the sake of the children" does is teaches your kids that it's ok to settle, no matter how bad it is.
Swingers? Hey, it works for some people.
Why the long face??
i cant believe he would cheat on her.. i thought he was one of the few decent guys in hollywood. obviously not. what a PIG!
oh.

She looks pretty here!!!
just leave!
Nothing is wrong with putting your childs needs first. And Is he wearing a toupe?
You obviously know nothing about children or parenting. Children ALWAYS come out better adjusted when they're raised with parents who stay married. Even if the parents constantly argue, bicker, and insult each other, it's less damaging to children than a divorce. It's not opinion or guesswork. It's 100% fact. A lot of people say and believe otherwise, but facts just don't support it.
2nd?? and yes thats a very good reason to stay together!
Isn't he gay?
The way they decide to handle their marriage is their business..nobody elses. If they choose to stay together for their son, so be it, but it may not be a good idea b/c kids can sense when mom and dad are miserable.
Odd couple. But really, until I see proof of a falling out, I'm not really going to think about it. Lol, I'm probably not going to anyway.
Has anyone seen my crackhead daughter? Bitch went and done wrecked another Mercedes. I'm going to cuntslap some sober into her.
FIRST!
she looks pretty good here
Poor Matthew must freak out when he has to look closely at SJP's massively altered face.

No matter what you make everything look bad…if something is good you make it look bad..if someone has a good relationship somehow you make it turn bad..you need to get a life so you stop picking on others. Being such a negative person is not a good thing.

FIRST!!!:")
IF IT WORK FOR THEM….
MAN HOE
Staying together for the kids does not guarantee that you will be miserable.
can you blame the dude, what guy would want to fuck that old ugly horsie looking filly with her big ugly nose on a regular basis? no thank you. She is a dog, never was cute, dont understand what fool put her ugly face in front of a camera and how in the hell thought she was good looking is beyond me. MB got it on with a good looking 20 something year old…..cant blame him after being married to and having to endure relations with my little pony parker/Mrs. Ed all those years..
s'okay
fo sho
Awful to stay together for the kid's sake. Kids pick up on the discord. And don't be naive, lotsa famous people (especially in the sports world) stay together even if unhappy. The men don't wanna be taken to the cleaners and the women don't wanna give up that lifestyle:( I know.

No man should ever get married; there is no point to it. Have kids if you want, but do not delude yourself into thinking that the love/lust/infatuation that you feel at the beginning of a relationship will last. It is particularly strange when people try marriage for the 2nd-3rd-4th times! I hope MB and SJP, if they do break up, do not attempt marriage again.
He is gay. There is no way he is cheating on her with a female. Notice the press have basically left this alone in the states??!! Because he does dudes!!
Good for them for staying together. Most people have unrealistic expectations of long term marriage. I know many long term married couples who have had an indiscretion or two, as long marriages do grow stale and lonely married people look for an answer outside the marriage. These people ride it out and realize that an outsider usually isn't an answer either. Altering your Disney expectations of what marriage is, which is a deep and abiding, caring friendship, is an inevitable conclusion. Couples have to decide what works for them and what doesn't.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOh.
I grew up with both my parents…. seperately… and it made things much easier for me.. but then again, my parents hated each other… But it doesn't seem neccesary (expecially in this day and age) for a child to have two parents… One is better than nothing.. and both seperately is even better… They should split if they arent happy, not stay together becuase of the child..
Not that I give a hoot about these people but, sometimes, if you are civil to each other, staying together for the kids works. My parents never broke up - even thru the rough years, they stuck it out. In the end, they spent the last 30 years of their married life happy and content with each other. Would they have had that with someone else? Maybe. Maybe not. People give up too easily these days. Any excuse will do. The hard part is staying together and working it out. That's what takes the real guts.
She could do better!!
It is noble to make it work for a kid ,the children, BUT IT CANNOT WORK for the kids.
When he cheats, the only thing can make it right is for her to cheat. Even Stevens.
Start fresh.
I think it's impressive that he could get an Boner with SJP, she looks like a foot. I heard Bill Belichick has a sex tape out now, it's on www.onblastatlast.com
hyde d montage
They are actors….they better be committed to performances of their lifetime if they are staying together for the kid.
this makes me very sad
i liked these two together and now it seems like no couple can win against time
at least in the spotlight anyways
chin up everyone life is good
HE IS A WHORE, TOO! EVEN MORE BECAUSE HE IS THE ONE THAT IS MARRIED!
SJP approached a female friend of mine a couple of years ago during the SATC wrap-up party. She invited her to lunch and told her that she and Matthew occasionally enjoy the company of young attractive ladies in a very private setting. My friend politely declined.
Apparently, that was SJP's modus operandi for quite some time, and lots of people here in NYC are well aware of it.
Re: Jim B – Please link me to these so called facts.
perez is obese
Does anybody ever stay in love? Jesus, this is so depressing.
Also doo I remember this wrong or did he kill 2 women in a car accident some years back, and got not even a ticket for it?
Eagles Fan 34 - That's particularly cruel. Having a bad day? She acted with intelligence on after school specials for years, and is a person of substance and character. She's good looking enough, and seems a well rounded, measured and sensible person with a brain. I hope you marry a tanned Barbie who does coke in your bathroom, garners DUI's in serial car crashes, prioritizes nail appointments and plastic surgeries, sleeps with your best friends behind your back and takes you for everything you've got. That's when you'll realize what's valuable in a person and what necessarily isn't. Oh, am a big Eagles fan myself.
Perez = Obese Cow
Yeah, good idea guys. Stay together for the sake of the kid, like my mom did to my dad. My entire life she'd call my dad a piece of shit behind his back and then be all sunshine to his face. She'd tell me he abused and cheated on her, and the only reason she was staying with him was so me and my sister could have a "good life." Yeah, great life being totally abused by dad because you wouldn't divorce him, not to mention the crushing guilt I was carrying around with me at all times as a young kid. Not to mention I pretty much look at all women as gold-digging whores who will lie right to your face for a lifetime.
So get divorced if you're not happy you fucking idiots.
They need to do whatever makes them both happy, and whatever they feel is best for their child. If they are unhappy, do they really want their son to have a loveless marriage as an example what a relationship is?
42nd?
oh look at me my name is perez hilton i eat twenty hamburgers everyday and i wonder why i am so fucking huge
sarah is a hottie. i would date her
Hhhmmm. Staying together for the children….
If bother remain "not involved" with others - that may work. But once resentment (from an affair) comes in the relationship — the interaction between the adults is often not good AND this can provide a bad foundation for a child. Not seeing 2 caring, loving parents that are solely inclusive.
Sometimes it is just better for the children to see normal parents that are happy and divorced.
Good luck!
What about Tilda Swinton?
She and her husband both have relationships on the side, and they're both fine with it. Perhaps SJP is fine with Matthew seeing other girls. I mean, not everybody wants to be exclusively monogamous.
That's boring.
Wow, has he turned into his father. Anyone who remembers that show 'Family' from way back will know what I'm talking about.
like you have kid a know how that goes. we don't know the whole story and i'm sure they're putting up a hell of a fight.
so save your two cents, mr. p.
Re: Jim B –
That is the stupidest thing I have ever heard! What evidence do you have to support these so-called "facts". TOTAL BS!
As long as they aren't constantly fighting and showing the child that they're having problems, it is better for them to stay together. Most of the time children don't even know their parents are having problems because it's not something they have to (or ever should have) focus on.
Can't he find a new beard? Perez, that's a score! Glad you included that line
MB is gay and all the Broadway cronies know it. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but live your life as a gay man and stop hiding behind SJP and the kid!
xoxo, Isa
Jim B. I have to disagree with you. It was the best thing all around when my parents finally divorced. They stayed married until we were teenagers and all they did was pay for more years in therapy for both my sister and I. Their dysfunctional relationship taught me nothing about how to have a healthy relationship now. Staying in a horrible marriage for the sake of the kids is not a good reason to stay married.
just because your divorced does not mean your child cant get the best of both their parents…. my parents have stayed together because of me and my sis and it had jus made me and my sister bitter and resentful towards them… they should split..!!! its better that way besides sARAH IS SUPER FIERCE MATTHEW IS A DORK SHE COULD DO BETTER.
What did she expect when she agreed to marry a gay guy???
Perez…. you are nothing but a fat cock slurper, what do you know about hetro love?
I really can't believe how some people are so self-indulgent.
Children do way better with two parents than with one - less promiscuity, less drugs/alcohol, less abuse, less chance of becoming self-indulgent as well. When abuse in the home is an issue (parent on child), then it is a good idea to leave the marriage, but if not, the long-term distress to the child is worse than the divorce itself.
So what's your excuse then, fatboy. Guess you're pretty miserable as well.
HE'S UGLY FOR HER……I SEE HER WITH SOMEONE ELSE
TIME TO GET OUT
Re: Jim B – Actually not necessarily true, my parents fight 24/7 and to tell the truth, it's actually a lot better around my house when one of them is gone
Contrary to what people believe, on few occasions, something like this does open the eyes of the married partners.. and it will only strengthen the marriage. People do fall in and out of love. It takes work to stay in love. Marriage is not a matter of convenience.
her husband is an idiot! She deserves better than him!
When people say they "love their children more than anything" you have to look at how they behave. Marriage is hard, relationships are hard, and children make them harder. But it can be very rewarding…everyone wants the easy way out these days and it's no wonder our country is in shambles…foreclosures, bankruptcies, spend spend spend, take a pill for this, gastric bypass surgery…there's no discipline. Staying together and making it work for the sake of the kids does not mean fight, bicker, yell and scream. Get along, forgive, put your children first, have a pleasant, supportive environment. If you can't for the sake of your kids, get divorced, but just remember, you're putting yourself first, and that's ok, but selfishness is the problem.
*sigh* when are they putting horse-face out to pasture?? I'm sick of looking at her.
Are there really people out there that think he's not gay????? WOW, THAT is shocking!
Her face looks like a foot. Why he even married her is a mystery. Was it so nobody would suspect he was fucking Nathan Lane? She is one of the most physically repulsive looking ho's in Hollywood
he's a big ole moe, wonder why she even bothers putting up such false pretenses????
I would leave to "Whitchie Poo" isnt going to age well he has nothing to lose!
I would leave to "Whitchie Poo" isnt going to age well he has nothing to lose!
Until SJP or MB release a statement how can we believe that this is true? SJP from her interviews sounds like she has a good head on her shoulders and I cannot believe for one second that she would be stupid enough to stay in a loveless marriage for her child.
I think that if they arn't happy they should get divorced. Many children have divorced parents and turn out just fine.
It's a too bad Chris Noth is married because He and SJP would make an amazing couple in real life!
It's worse for a kid to witness a loveless marriage than to witness a divorce.
Re: Canad – The 'grey' thing about life sometimes is that your marriage doesn't necessarily have to be loveless for one partner to stray. In a good marriage, you never give up, and you work at it no matter what. There are definited deal breakers, but each individual has to decide where that line is for them. I know husbands who adore their wives into old age because they let a bad mistake slip. I know others who took advantage until the thing crumbled. It depends on your situation. You have to decide what you can live with and what you can (or want to) change. Sometimes it IS beyond repair.
Staying together for the kid is stupid. If you're not in a happy marriage, the kid knows, and that's how he/she models adult relationships. Why would you want to model that 'marriage' equals one partner cheating on the other, not being happy or in love, and faking it for the sake of the cameras or the child?? That messes kids up more! Children from divorced or single parent homes can be just as well adjusted from happy, dual parent homes, as long as the parents show unconditional love for the child, let the child know that it is not his/her fault that mom and dad are not together, and are on the same page and together as far as the child rearing is concerned. Maybe I'm old fashioned, but I don't think modeling an 'open' relationship is too healthy for the kid. Just let it go you two! He'll be fine!
here's what I don't get. It's okay to refer to a child out of wedlock as a bastard, but you also don't deem it appropriate for a couple to stay together purely for the sake of the child(ren) involved (which I agree with). So in this day and age, what is the point of getting married because a child is on the way so said child will be deemed "legitimate" if the couple is not 100% invested, secure, and convinced such a marriage would work out? Isn't it better to be married when, and only when, the reason for marriage is complete commitment and the trust and ability to hold true to those vows? It's much easier for a child to go through a break up than a divorce, in my opinion. Why not get rid of the labels all together and call it as it is, and not stick to the labels of our misguided forefathers? As for the idiot who thinks it's better to stay married no matter what, I'd love to see your fucking research on the subject douche (jim)
He has been cheating on her for years - my friend's roommate in NYC was in a show with him and they were hooking up then…which was almost 6 years ago now.
SJP just had her trademark chin mole removed. She's really trying to make things "look good".
.
They are both excellent actors and will continue to make their life together a worthy performance.
Ok, which is it? People are saying he cheated with a younger woman and she has invited girls to join them and others are saying he's gay all the way. Someone give us some input…does he hit on guys on Broadway? Does anyone have any anticdotes or does he just seem gay?
Re: Jim B – That is ridiculous…my parents should have gotten a divorce years ago but chose to stay together for the kids…I never wanted to be home b/c all they did was scream at each other..each situation is different
Pez is telling us that the reason he is so miserable is because his mommy and daddy hated each other. May he get the counseling to help him realize that it is only his thoughts that torment him, his mommy and daddy have no hold over him now. He is clearly a demented sole.
what are you fucking kidding me perez, it's the only reason to stay together & it's why most people do. too bad if you're not happy. you brought a child into the world. wait another 7 years & you can leave. everyone throws the baby out with the bathwater. you are never going to stay IN LOVE with anyone. that's life. so you can divorce & waste your money & get an ego kick. or shut the fuck up & live your life, get a blowjob on the side, and life rolls along. i'm sure SJP has had some strange too.
