Rosie O'Donnell and Kelli Carpenter Split?

By PopEater Staff Posted Oct 21st 2009 11:27AM

Rosie O'Donnell and Kelli Carpenter are having problems. Big ones. In a chat with USA Today on Tuesday, the former daytime TV host broke down in tears while discussing her longtime partner, whom she shares four kids with. "We're a family. We will remain a family forever. And we are working on our issues," she coyly answered to questions on whether she and Carpenter had split.

O'Donnell herself has been fueling the breakup reports with answers to fan questions on her blog. She has recently called marriage "very very very hard" and seemed genuinely unaware that Carpenter had a Facebook account.

The couple married in San Francisco in 2004 have three adopted children (Parker, 14, Chelsea, 12, and Blake, 9) as well 6-year-old Vivienne, whom Carpenter carried.

"They're adorable and wonderful and they are by far a priority," O'Donnell said with tears welling. "Kelli and I love each other very much and we are working on our issues. Those are the only words I am ever going to say. Ever. And that is something that has been agreed upon by all parties."

The National Enquirer reported in August that Carpenter had moved out their home and into Manhattan.

O'Donnell may not be ready to disclose the likely breakup, but saying "We will both continue to parent them and we're friendly and everything's all right" does not sound like an endorsement of a strong relationship.

Homosexuality is a mental disorder. These women need serious help with their disorder. Giving children to mentally unstable people is absurd

Jerry,

you are an ignorant, racist, homophobe, plain and simple. You are the one who should be leaving our country. The world has progressed since people like you ran things, back in the dark ages. You and people like you are pathetic and we don't have room for you in this great country.
I sincerely hope that your kids grow up to be gay, and if not ,that your grandchildren all marry Latinos.
Learn to spell too, dummy.

BOO HOO BOO HOO OINK OINK OINK THIS IS ONE FATASS THAT CAN JUST GO SOMEWHERE AND DIE

This should be a very interesting court case if they go thru a divorce.
The courts have always favored the woman in a divorce case.
So I guess it means who dresses the prettiest.
Or who wiggles the best or maybe who is wearing the dress properly.

I think Rosie needs to go to the clinic and get that femail to male sugury...I think it's called an addadiktomy.....then she can finally stop shaving that big fat pumpkin on her neck.

By Mark McElreath

Which one is the wife? Rosie needs to order six pizzas, lots of beer, put on the country music and drown her sorrow. Maybe the cute blond left her for a well conditioned man. She could be bi as in bybychubbywench.

Could not have happened to a better deserving nut case. Ugly and nothig going for her other than a big fat body and mouth...HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA

The cute blond left her for a male sumo wrassler.

The more gays, lezbos etc. try to force their abnormal lifestyle on everyone else the more resistance they will see. I will never accept a female partner being called a "husband" I don't care how much pressure gays bring to this issue.

Hey -- if you're going to attack someone - try to use proper grammar and spelling. Better to remain silent and thought a fool than to speak up and remove all doubt.

By kim

So very sorry.

By Ken

Just goes to show you. Lesbians don't want to be married to mean fat chicks any more than us guys!

By Tony D.

Please tell me it isn't so.;( Ok I'm over it now.:)and life goes on. Gee Rosie what was it you said about Jon and Kate again? I see that your wife carried one of the children. Were you the father?

By joan

Rosie isn't making the bucks she did when they got together and is not popular as she once was. Maybe Kelli was in it for the moola and Rosies fame?

By Ron

Do they get to split the stapons?
