Christmas in California — is what Heidi Klum has in mind for the holiday season. The supermodel, 39, opens up about the holidays, planning a lovely Christmas at home with her four children from ex Seal, according to UsMagazine.com. On Saturday, when asked about her specific plans, while she was at the Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles gala, Klum stated, “We’re going to get a big Christmas tree and we might go to Disneyland. We go all over the place.” In all this, one question remains. Will Seal, 49, join the family? No news has been said yet. Klum and Seal have recently begun to speak again after the nasty comments Seal made about Klum’s new relationship with her ex bodyguard Martin Kirsten. Seal contends that his words were taken out of context.

It can be extremely painful for a woman to tolerate an ex finding a new love; even celebrities are not immune to this sadness. Demi Moore has had a rough year, starting with ex Ashton Kutcher’s cheating scandal, leading to their divorce and now — coping with his new love, Mila Kunis. Moore, who will celebrate her 50th birthday this November 11, has been described by a close source as “jealous and frustrated.” Also, many sources have reported to People that friends are worried she hasn’t fully recovered. On the other hand, a separate source maintains that Moore is moving forward and doing well. “…despite the depression of going through a divorce, she came through it.”
What are some ways to cope with your ex’s new relationship?
Have you stayed in a bad relationship way too long because you were afraid of being alone? Have you rebounded from a breakup too quickly because you missed having a partner? If so, your view of single life may be unrealistically negative. You don’t need a boyfriend to make you complete. In fact, being on your own can give you the chance to attend to your own needs and find your own strengths.

While movie star Cameron Diaz has been romantically linked to celebrities like Justin Timberlake and New York Yankee Alex Rodriguez, walking down the aisle has not been in the cards for her — yet. Rather, the What to Expect When You’re Expecting starlet is alright with that. She admits that marriage was not something she searched for in her 20’s or 30’s. However, Diaz, who just turned 40 at the end of August, is feeling open minded to the possibility of marriage and, perhaps, children in her future. Recently, she spoke with Esquire UK about her life, stating that she knows herself better, feels more capable than ever, and “has gratitude. “ When it comes to potential suitors, Diaz claims she looks for “someone who takes care of themselves, who’s strong.” Until then, she seems perfectly content in her own skin.

Summer is here, which means wedding season is already well underway. That’s good news for those walking down the aisle, but how about for those who are still single? Sure, some might use weddings as a hot singles spot to meet someone new, but others just feel depressed. There’s a reason that therapy bills increase every summer.

In fact, they’re also just as likely as women to be emotionally vulnerable. Here are some other things you might not have realized about single guys at weddings:

It’s been eight months since the Real Housewives star Taylor Armstrong lost her husband Russell Armstrong to suicide, and she said she hasn’t even considered dating. “I’m just so not ready.

But for me, for now, I really got some growing to do, I think, before I’ll be even ready to be a good judge of what’s good for me.” As for now, the reality star is putting her focus on raising her daughter Kennedy and learning to be a single mom and an independent woman.
