That Charlize Theron and Stuart Townsend have split: "Stuart is gutted but Charlize said that she realised during the Mexican holiday the relationship was over... They had become more like brother and sister than lovers. It was she who ended it. She loved Stuart but their relationship ran its course. He is heartbroken but she is insisting it is over. Charlize was surprised the story hadn't come out yet. But she didn't confirm it because she wanted to break the news in her own time"... That, after a year and a half of acting the goat, Ronnie Wood has returned to rehab: "It will be the 62-year-old rocker's eighth stint in rehab, according to Britain's Daily Mail newspaper. Wood last sought professional treatment for his boozing in July 2008, shortly after he walked out on his wife of 23 years, Jo, to be with his then-lover, young Russian waitress Ekaterina Ivanova"... A source added: "Ronnie has been in a bad state of mind since his split with Katia," another source told the publication. “They were in a terrible relationship, but since their break-up he has not been himself. He has been lonely and drinking and has tried to throw himself into new romances. Jo and the entire family are just happy that he is seeking help again"... That Geri Halliwell accompanied her (rumoured) fiancé, Henry Beckwith out last night to The Ivy, despite him being doing for cocaine possession about 14 hours earlier... That Alex Reid is to announce his engagement to Jordan tomorrow: "The couple signed a deal worth tens of thousands of pounds to promote the new ride at Alton Towers. And tomorrow they will reveal their wedding plans in a magazine as part of yet another megabucks contract"... A source speaking to The Sun said: "It's Jordan's way or the highway. They're engaged but Alex can't even tell his family because she wants to make money and sell it to a magazine. But he doesn't want to upset her, the last time she publicly dumped him on TV. He's just won back a bit of self-respect. To lose it now would be awful. The ridiculous thing is, Alex can't see he'd be better off without her. He didn't talk about her once on Big Brother and won. Look how she did on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! The public disliked her so much they made her do nearly every trial"... That Toni Terry is looking for a divorce off John Terry... That Bridge will be asking for one of them next and will get more sympathy from the public... That Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie put on a united front at the Directors Guild of America Awards in Los Angeles over the weekend: "Onlookers saw him pull out a chair for Angelina, 34, and affectionately stroke her back as they chatted at the table with Tarantino and colleagues from the Baftanominated movie. Dressed in a stunning grey Elie Saab gown, Angelina looked every inch the screen siren while relishing the attention"... That Kristen Bell is engaged to Dax Shepard... That Katy Perry had "a public spat" with Russell Brand at last night's Grammy Awards... Comedian Russell burbled: "Grammys... I know why it’s called that. That’s how much coke you need to cope with it"... Katy responded: "Stop it and behave! I don’t want to upset the Grammys. I want one!"... OK, that doesn't qualify as a public fight in reality, but that hasn't stopped various media outlets from making it one of their leading stories today... That you can see photos from last night's ceremony, and the Lady's GaGa conducting a tribute to the Green Goblin' (GERRIH?!), in this here gallery. This is what she chose to sit in throughout the awards. I bet that endeared her to those behind her... That Elton John went to great lengths to shield his eyes, either from the Goblin' or Imelda May's dress...  That we here in EI offices were predictably displeased with Brendan O'Connor's attempt at chat show hosting on Saturday night... Firstly, as with most RTE 'entertainment' viewing, the graphics looked like they were thrown up by a sleep deprived teen... Secondly, what was all this about BOC not being like other chat show sorts who only have people on to plug stuff? Eh, Peaches Geldof (book of short stories in the works); Twink and Linda Martin (that menopause thing they're doing); and Jim bloody Coor who was just on to promote his website riddled with conspiracy theory "that's jimcoor.com"... And as for that gingerist from Nob Nation who opened the show with an uninterrupted (Brendan was obviously getting to grips with the prospect of having to ask questions) stream of shite: he should consider dropping the 'Nation' from the title... although his Jedward impression was rather good. Then again, who can't do a Jedward impression these days... That you can see more photos of people doing stuff in

Caught Out...
