OMG! Chitrangada and Jyoti Randhawa divorced?

Chitrangada Singh has apparently been granted divorce by the Gurgaon family court from golfer husband Jyoti Randhawa

If sources are to be believed, Chitrangada Singh, and her golfer husband, Jyoti Randhawa, are officially divorced now. The couple had applied for divorce last year, and the Gurgaon family court has apparently finalised the same now.

Says a source, `The actress and her husband had filed for divorce at the Gurgaon family court last year, but it's only recently that the court approved their request and granted them divorce. The couple has a son named Zorawar; his custody has been granted to Chitrangada.`

Married for more than 13 years, Chitrangada and Jyoti were a much celebrated couple. But since the last few years, their marriage was under constant scrutiny. It was repeatedly reported that they were experiencing marital problems. The couple, however, always chose to stay mum about the issue.

`After Chitrangada moved out of Delhi and made Mumbai her home in order to pursue her acting career, she was hardly visited by Jyoti who stayed on in Delhi. Over time, they decided to part ways,` says a source.

Chitrangada Singh and Jyoti Randhawa remained unavailable for comment.

"It's pretty funny really, it's a matter of choreography," Pare told Glamour magazine, reports contactmusic.com.

The 33-year-old says her association with the show has been a learning experience, and that she loves her character's wardrobe.

"There's tonnes of stuff I want to steal from Megan's wardrobe. I even love the nightgowns and robes she wears around the house."

"I've learned a lot about fashion from Megan; she wears lots of patterns and silhouettes that I wouldn't have necessarily tried for fear they'd be too feminine," says Pare.

Lindsay Lohan enjoyed free rehab stay

Lindsay Lohan enjoyed free rehab stay
T
Troubled actress Lindsay Lohan's health insurance company refused to pay her $150,000 rehab bill, so the clinic agreed to waiver the cost.

The 27-year-old, whose personal assistant has reportedly quit because she can't afford to pay him, spent three months at the upmarket Cliffside Malibu clinic last June and the facility agreed to foot the $150,000 bill in return for the publicity her stay would bring.

"Health insurance wouldn't pay for the rehab stint because this was her sixth time in treatment,` contactmusic.com quoted a source as saying.

"Cliffside Malibu comped it. Prior to arriving at Cliffside, Lindsay had been at Betty Ford and wasn't doing well there. Cliffside Malibu became available and agreed to allow her stay presumably because of the free publicity it gave them,` the source added.

Lohan was given a private room, which costs a reported $73,000 for the stint.
