Gwyneth Paltrow’s Tummy Trouble

 

With cup of coffee in hand to help warm her up on another chilly day, Gwyneth Paltrow was spotted out in New York City yesterday morning.

 

The “Sliding Doors” actress was sporting a navy pea coat, jeans, and two of the cutest braided pigtails we’ve ever seen. Her oversized black sunglasses didn’t do much to deter the shutterbugs from noticing her.

 

As previously reported by Gossip Girls, Paltrow spent a bit of time in the hospital earlier this week. A friend of hers, chef Mario Batali told press that she had to be admitted to Mount Sinai Hospital this past Monday for “a little gastrointestinal situation.”

 

He explained, “It’s now been straightened out. She’s [doing] great.” Whatever it was, let’s just hope it wasn’t caused by Chef Batali’s food!

 

Enjoy the pictures of Gwyneth out in NYC yesterday morning (January 18).

PALTROW VOWS TO AVOID U.S. AFTER PAPARAZZI SCARE

 

Actress Gwyneth Paltrow has vowed to stay away from the U.S. after a recent traumatic confrontation with photographers in New York.

 

The Oscar winner was pounced upon by the paparazzi during a visit to Manhattan's Mount Sinai Hospital last week (14Jan08). Paltrow insists the media attention in American is much worse than in London, where she lives with her husband, Coldplay rocker Chris Martin and their two children Apple, three, and one-year-old Moses.

 

A friend of the couple tells U.S. publication the Chicago Sun Times that the star has vowed to rarely "cross the pond, unless I absolutely have to for work". The source adds, "Gwyneth was truly frightened by the intensity of the whole thing. She was feeling fragile at the moment and didn't need to face that." The couple was overwhelmed by photographers when they left the New York medical centre where Paltrow was being treated for "a gastrointestinal situation". Martin was later videotaped chasing a member of the paparazzi and grabbing his camera while shouting, "You've gotta have some respect".

huh, that's interesting. i doubt that will be very easy for her to stay away too much, though.

 

and i was under the impression that british paparazzi and press attention was much worse?

[blackchickintheback]

Yeah, that's what i thought.

Aren't the paparzzi just as bad in the UK? :freak:

But maybe she's just going to stay away for a little while. I hope she comes back to visit. :confused: Makes me feel like a stupid american.

[Paulinha coldplay]

Respect! It's the only thing that I can say...

[chuck kottke]

I really think privacy rights should extend to anyone, especially if they are being constantly bothered by photographers. At least a space limit of a certain distance, and some common sense courtesy - Privacy rights are basically guaranteed in our constitution, and when we think of it, they have more to do with respecting one's right to be personal with whom we choose, and the basic right of respect for those personal moments, whether that happens to be in our own homes, or in public. I wish our system of justice would do more about this, and the courts. Sorry to hear they gave Gwyneth a hard time, and my apologies on behalf of the majority of Americans who find this sort of behavior appaling!

perfectly said.

So just what is wrong with Gwyneth Paltrow?

 

The past few months have been tough for Gwyneth Paltrow. Rumours of her marriage being on the rocks, her comeback film The Good Night taking just £90,000 at the box office, and now a late-night dash to the hospital pushed in a wheelchair by her husband Chris Martin.

 

Gwyneth was seen "slumped over" in the chair as Martin took her into New York's Mount Sinai Medical Centre last week, but she stayed there for less than 24 hours and is now recovering at her home in the city, complete with ready meals provided by her favourite macrobiotic store.

 

Seperate lives: Chris and Gwyneth are often barely on the same continent, let alone in the same house

 

Ironically, her health difficulty - which cannot be divulged for privacy reasons - has meant that, for the first time in a long while, she finally has the undivided attention of her British pop star husband.

 

"Chris has been an amazing support to Gwyneth," said a source.

 

"He has been completely at her beck and call. The question is, though, how long is he going to be there for her?"

 

The pair, who have been married for four years, are often barely on the same continent, let alone in the same house.

 

Chris, the Coldplay front man and creative force behind the band, has been struggling to record the band's fourth album, which was originally supposed to be released this month.

 

Recovering: Gwyneth was rushed to hospital in a wheelchair last week, but left less than 24-hours later

 

He has found it so difficult to come up with a successor to the multi-platinum X&Y that he even hired a hypnotist to help him get over his writer's block.

 

Meanwhile Gwyneth, after taking three years off to look after the couple's two children, Apple, three, and 20-month-old Moses, has thrown herself back into working life, all too aware that at the age of 35 she is becoming a little too mature for a leading lady.

 

She is making Two Lovers, her third successive film in just a few months, while, at the end of last year, she also spent ten weeks doing a cooking reality show driving around Spain.

 

Until last week's events, the pair had not been seen together for months - even by the paparazzi photographers who like to haunt their every move.

 

When a visibly upset Chris attended the funeral of his beloved uncle Angus on the Scottish Isle of Arran in August he was alone, without the support of his family.

 

That they clearly live their lives so separately has led, inevitably, to question marks being raised over the couple's relationship.

 

And the rumours are fuelled by the fact that the pair refuse to talk about each other at all - or be seen together.

 

In an interview this month with the Mail's Weekend magazine, Gwyneth said: "There's obviously an appetite for gossip," and "we're not into doing stuff in public together".

 

Happier times: Chris Martin and Gwyneth Paltrow after daughter Apple was born

 

When the actress did a photo spread allowing America's House & Garden magazine access to the couple's Hamptons home, among the pictures of the bedroom, living room and sumptuous designer fittings there was not a hint or a word of her husband.

 

Chris, meanwhile, angrily lashed out verbally at a journalist when she asked him whether he would ever do a duet with his wife.

 

"What's your favourite sexual position?" he asked her angrily.

 

Friends of the couple have revealed that the pair have been going through a rocky patch.

 

Mount Sinai hospital, where Gwyneth was admitted

 

There has been a difficult transitional phase after Gwyneth decided to leave her puree-making (albeit with the help of her chef) homebody lifestyle behind her and become a working mother. Friends say she is very moneyconscious despite her millions in the bank and four homes and knew she had to get back into the job market or lose her chance for good.

 

"I basically took three years off," she said.

 

"It's a very risky thing to do if you're a woman. Women aren't given the same slack as men, the same margin of error, the same career span.

 

"In your 30s the interesting roles are fewer and farther between."

 

Family ties: The couple with daughter Apple and son Moses

 

The first film she made after her extended maternity leave was her brother Jake's small budget - and ultimately unsuccessful - movie The Good Night.

 

She stars as an unfulfilled wife of a has-been British pop star. When asked if she could relate to her character, she replied enigmatically: "I have been in similar relationships."

 

Next was the big action film Iron Man with Robert Downey Jnr - the sort of film the actress admits she does only for the money.

 

In an apparent attempt to shake off her po-faced image (U.S. media sources say she is regarded as icy by middle America) she then embarked on an "anything goes" fly-on-the wall ten-week tour around Spain with TV chef Mario Batali for an American cable company.

 

Now, she is making romantic comedy Two Lovers with Joaquin Phoenix, two years her junior.

 

"There has been a difficult time adjusting for both of them,'" said one London-based source close to Gwyneth.

 

"With Gwyneth making her films and Chris busy with his album they have hardly spent any time together at all.

 

"Chris, who has a bossy tendency, got used to Gwyneth playing second fiddle to him when she stopped work to be with the children, and to her being wherever he was, along with the kids.

 

"But things have changed. She was once a bigger star than Chris and she is not willing to give it all up."

 

There are also petty differences which increase tension. He prefers the indie music crowd to her friends like Madonna and Stella McCartney.

 

She likes to go to parties and enjoy sparkling conversation - he likes to stay in.

 

Matters have not been helped by Chris putting pressure on himself to come up with - in his words - "the greatest piece of music ever made".

 

Chris Martin lashes out at a photographer

 

"There is a lot of pressure on Coldplay because their last album was such a success," says a music source.

 

"Of course, as the main songwriter, he is taking that pressure to heart and that can't make him an easy person to live with right now."

 

It has to be said Chris and Gwyneth, who had a secret marriage ceremony four years ago after conceiving their first child, have always been an odd coupling.

 

She comes from Hollywood royalty, her father Bruce Paltrow was an acclaimed producer and mother Blythe Danner a popular actress.

 

Steven Spielberg - who gave her her first film role - is her godfather, Madonna her best friend and she had an Oscar under her belt at the age of 26 for her role in Shakespeare In Love.

 

She was engaged to film heartthrob Brad Pitt, and when that broke up he was followed by another pin-up, Ben Affleck.

 

Chris, who is five years younger than his wife, is a self-confessed nerd, the Devon-born son of an accountant and music teacher.

 

He attended Sherborne boarding school in Dorset, before going on to University College in London where he gained a First and met the rest of Coldplay. He was a virgin until he turned 22.

 

But they got on famously and it is that love, as well as the fact that both come from stable homes, which means despite the rows - common in all marriages - they are now fighting to keep their union together.

 

They have decided to spend no more than four days apart.

 

They agreed to go on more dates without the children, to get their romance back, and they are trying to scale back on their work commitments. They even talked about trying for another child.

 

Now, with Gwyneth recovering from last week's emergency, these resolutions are going to be put to the test.

 

Although the actress is not seriously ill, she will need her husband to be strong for her and by her side.

[brazzo]

"Chris has been an amazing support to Gwyneth," said a source.

Nice!!!:)

[cpfan50]

Articles like that are just so poor - there's nothing new whatsoever in that

'news' article - it just lists every tabloid gossip tale for the past year and strings them together to make a pointless story. 90% of that article is just based on silly rumours. It's just boring! :sleeping:

 

I guess real news and journalism is a bit out of the Daily Mail's reach!

[busybeeburns]

thats probably some Brit remedy isn't it??? :uhoh:

;)

[Guest kmm1482]

What's sad, is that some people will read the article and actually put 100% stock in it. Honestly, who would know more about the couple; Close friends and family who say they are completely in love and inseparable or some trashy photogs, who's job it is to harass and slander people? I guarantee all the crap that has been said about them is purely out of jealousy and boredom.

[chuck kottke]

Yes, sadly that's what sells. Can you imagine a headline: "Couple Very Much Enjoying Life; Everything's Fine!" How many magazines would that sell? "If it weren't for bad news, there'd be no news at all... gloom, despair, and agony on me.."!:laugh3:

[Terry C]

Is it just me who thinks the media want this marriage to fail?

 

I mean, that story was so full of digs and petty comments.

 

Vultures!

[Terry C]

I wish I didn't have to live here anymore.

 

The last seven years have made ME ashamed to be an American.

[berrywoman]

;)

 

:laugh3:I knew it!!!! maybe she ate too much of those Pot'o Noodles.... the slag of all snacks???

[[email protected]]

They agreed to go on more dates without the children......They even talked about trying for another child.

 

:thinking: another child? what for? huh....?!

[nevaehdreamz]

Where did the myth come from that having a child repairs relationships? That's the last thing a struggling couple should think about doing.

 

Nonsense article.

[busybeeburns]

Paltrow to quit acting?

 

Swapping movies for motherhood?

 

Gwyneth Paltrow says she is on the verge of quitting Hollywood, revealing she has lost her ambition to act after becoming a mother.

 

The 35-year-old Oscar winner told of her shock plans in the same week she vowed to boycott America because of intrusive paparazzi.

 

'I don't have the same ambition that I used to have, and don't work at a furious pace. I have a great life and I see everything differently now.'

 

'I know that shooting film after film doesn't make you happy, and I've never been happier with Chris and the children.'

 

But the wife of Coldplay singer, Chris Martin, suggests she'll consider a comeback once the couple's two children, daughter Apple, 3 and 21-month-old son Moses grow up.

 

'I will do more films now that Apple and Moses are a little bit older.'

 

Paltrow, who was recently wheel chaired into hospital by Martin after suffering a 'gastric' illness also told Now magazine she now longer yearns for a perfect figure, adding: 'I'm definitely less interested in all that stuff than I used to be, but I still believe in eating whole organic foods.'

PALTROW: 'I HATE CHART MUSIC'

 

GWYNETH PALTROW has scuppered rumours of a planned duet with her rocker husband CHRIS MARTIN - the Hollywood star can't stand mainstream chart music.

 

The Shakespeare In Love actress, who revealed her vocal talents in 2000 movie Duets, has turned down several recording contracts because she doesn't enjoy "packaged music" - despite being married to Coldplay star Martin and boasting pop superstar Madonna as a close friend.

 

The 35-year-old mother-of-two says, "I've been approached to do records and stuff like that, which is very flattering, but I don't really see myself as the type of person who could do that. "I'm not into that whole packaged music thing and I don't really like chart music. I never listen to it."
