Meet Coco Mallon!
New mom Terri Seymour introduced her newborn daughter Coco in the latest issue of HELLO!. “The love you feel is beyond anything I’ve ever felt before,” gushed the Extra star, 40. “I’d been told about it, but it really is the most incredible bond and power I’ve ever experienced.”
Terri’s beau, male model Clark Mallon, 28, was at the birth on March 9 at the Cedars-Sinai Hospital in L.A. And the British-born TV personality was thrilled to give birth naturally.
“I was over the moon there wasn’t a Caesarean, to be honest,” she shared. “At one point they were worried I would need one as I’d been pushing for a long time. But things came together and it went as planned.”
“You just cannot describe the experience of giving birth and they were right,” she added. “It’s very surreal and no matter what people tell you, words can’t really describe it. I’m actually so thankful I got to experience it.”
It sounds like choosing their daughter’s name was a no-brainer.
“We pretty much called her Coco as soon as we found out we were expecting a girl,” Terri shaired. “Clark was calling my bump Coco from the very beginning.”
The new mom can’t wait to meet up with ex-boyfriend Simon Cowell, his girlfriend Lauren Silverman and their 14-month-old son Eric.
“We’re really looking forward to meeting up,” she said. “They can’t wait to meet Coco and introduce her to Eric.
“I have to thank Sharon Osbourne, too,” Terri added. “She sent over the most beautiful clothes for Coco – one was a stunning little dress with cherries all over it. She’s always so generous with her gifts and I’m always amazed. She has a great eye. Sharon and [her daughter] Kelly will be coming over to meet her, too.”
Fashion designer Rachel Roy and her ex-husband, former CEO and co-founder of Roc-a-Fella Records Damon Dash, have reached a custody agreement — and it doesn’t look favorable for Jay-Z‘s former business partner.
Dash, 43, has lost sole and physical custody of his two daughters – Ava, 15, and Tallulah, 6 – to his ex-wife, E! News reports.
The fashion designer, 41, also obtained a three-year restraining order against her ex, which includes an order of protection for their daughters.
The court has granted Dash supervised visits with their girls.
Roy filed for divorce from Dash in 2009 after four years of marriage. Since then, Roy was reportedly the cause of the now-infamous 2014 Met Gala elevator brawl between Jay-Z and Solange Knowles.
“At the gala, Rachel was being flirtatious with Jay,” a source revealed. “Once everyone was at the Boom Boom Room for the after-party, her flirtations were elevated.”
The insider added: “Beyoncé approached Rachel to let her know the behavior was disrespectful and she wanted her out of their lives for good. Solange came over to have her sister’s back, and things got heated with her and Rachel. Jay said some disrespectful things to Beyoncé and Solange as the confrontation was going down. That’s why all hell broke loose in the elevator and why Beyoncé just stood back and let Solange hit Jay.”
There’s another Duggar on-the-way.
Congratulations are in order for Jessa Duggar, 22, and Ben Seewald, 19. The 19 Kids and Counting stars – who celebrate their first wedding anniversary this year – are expecting their first child in November, PEOPLE reports.
“We’re expecting!” the mom-to-be tells the mag. “We are so excited. The due date is November first, our wedding anniversary.” Adds Ben: “We are looking forward to being parents.”
Jessa is the third daughter born to Jim Bob, 49 and Michelle Duggar, 48, and her husband is the oldest of seven Seewald children.
“I am feeling pretty good,” Jessa shares. “The morning sickness was different every day. It’s getting better, but I’m still hanging on to the heartburn. And I don’t have any super serious food cravings.”
Jessa recalls taking her pregnancy test before church one Sunday morning.
“I said, ‘Hey Ben, guess what? Yeah, you’re a dad.’ We couldn’t believe it,” she shares. “We are so excited. We have started talking baby names. It is one of those things that is so special, picking a name for a baby.”
As for their hopes to adopt one day, the couple is keeping that option open.
“Our hearts haven’t changed on adoption,” Jessa says. “We are still making plans.”
“We are trying to take it one day at a time,” Ben shares. “We pray every night that God helps us be good parents. We are getting advice from other parents.”
Jessa’s older sister Jill Dugar, 23 and her husband, Derick Dillard, 26, welcomed son Israel David on April 6.

During a Tuesday appearance on Live! With Kelly and Michael, new mom Blake Lively opened up about family life with husband, actor Ryan Reynolds, and their 4-month-old daughter James.
“I did have a baby, yes! A little girl,” the Age of Adaline actress, 27, said when asked about welcoming her first child.
The Gossip Girl alum looked lovely in a print Preserve.us jumpsuit, Charlotte Olympia heels and Lorraine Schwartz jewels.
When asked how motherhood has changed her life, the actress replied, “Oh, gosh! Well this, first of all, has changed,” Blake said, pointing to her body.
“Everything is different,” she added. “You see a balcony and you’re like, ‘Oh, my God! The hotel needs to demolish this balcony because my child can’t go anywhere near it.’ Everything is just so much more heightened. We’re crying all the time for no reason.”
Not to mention the sleep deprivation. “I slept two hours last night,” Blake added.
“The last time when Ryan was here, he smelled like baby powder. He was knee-deep in being a dad,” Michael said. The actress laughed and said, “Now he just smells like poop…he’s in full diaper duty. [He] likes the big ones, because they’re easier, so her diapers are like up to her chest.”
When asked who baby James resembles most, Blake joked, “I think she looks like her daddy. I want a maternity test!”
The actress, whose mom was in the audience, went on to share one of her favorite childhood memories.
“She would always take me out of school and take me to Disneyland, which is really ill advised. I know! It was terrible,” she laughed. “She was like, ‘It’s a landscaping lesson.’ But it was really neat because to see people’s imaginations like that, it did open your mind. I don’t know. I’m trying to justify going to Disneyland!”
Everything is not coming up roses for Patrick Dempsey! These are some photos of Patrick at the pre-premiere (??) of WINNING: The Racing Life of Paul Newman a few days ago. If Patrick looks super-shady to you, that’s because he really does look squirrelly and weird in these photos, like he stepped out of an intense bender from 1988. Patrick is probably living it up more than usual these days – in January, we heard that Patrick and his wife Jillian Fink were divorcing after 15 years (and long-standing rumors of marriage trouble and Patrick’s infidelities). And now it looks like Patrick’s career is going to hell too. Page Six says Patrick is on the way out of Grey’s Anatomy because of his “diva” behavior. Interesting.
Patrick Dempsey’s time on “Grey’s Anatomy” could soon be up, with sources telling us his “diva” behavior on the set of the ABC show has infuriated creator Shonda Rhimes. Dempsey, who has played Dr. Derek Shepherd since the series began in 2005, was last November written out of the show, explained by his character getting a job in DC. Dempsey has since only returned for fleeting appearances, even though he signed a new two-year deal in January 2014.
A show source said, “Patrick has been acting like a diva and has clashed with Shonda. She suspended him for a while, and the word on set is that he isn’t coming back full time…Given all the past problems with Katherine Heigl and Isaiah Washington, there is little tolerance on the show for troublesome talent.”
After Dempsey’s character was sent to DC, Rhimes told Entertainment Weekly in January, “It’s highly possible that we might not see Derek for a while .?.?. There will be a time when you see him again, yes, but it’s probable that you won’t see Derek for awhile.”
The show is nearing the end of Season 11. But Dempsey, who is contracted through the end of Season 12 and 2015, has talked about leaving. The actor — who is in the midst of a divorce with his wife, Jillian Fink — said in November the medical drama “has been a blessing for me and has allowed me to do all this. But it’s transitional for me right now. I’m looking forward to the next thing, creatively.” He said his exit from “Grey’s” would happen “very soon,” but didn’t say when.
Our source added that his comments “didn’t help” Dempsey’s frosty relationship with Rhimes. A rep for Dempsey said, “I can confirm that this story is not true,” and a rep for the show didn’t return calls and e-mails.
[From Page Six]
It sounds more like Dempsey and Shonda Rhimes were simply sick of each other, that Patrick was looking for a way out of his contract and that Rhimes was trying to push him out as well. But sure, maybe he’s a diva. I doubt his transgressions were as awful as Katherine Heigl’s, but after 11 seasons, sure, people get sick of working with the same old people. What’s funny to me is that Shonda Rhimes gave Patrick Dempsey his legitimate second-act career. And if he thinks he’s going to go on to bigger and better things post-Grey’s Anatomy, he’s sorely mistaken.
