do you know who this person is married to?

I hear you Thandie... but he must REALLY love her inside and out. My husband has never been with a woman who was less than very pretty but I can honestly say if something were to happen to me and I chubbed out, the silly old bastard would still love ME.... though I just couldn't see that happening to me.

LOL@Angel's comment about her mom!

I think my husband would love me as well if I turned chubette. The operative word is "I think". However, I wouldn't love myself.

He's 54 so a little chubette is not terrible as they seem to really love eachother. I'm sure he's had plenty of swimsuit models over the years.

That being said, she's moving from chubette to obese in the pic Nef put up. That shows a lack of caring for herself.

I think he is a very traditional Irish Catholic - my bet - and takes seriously the for better or worse and the fact that she is the mother of his children.. He is definately at the a worse stage right now.

Agreed... I was once a little fattie. I didn't know any better, was near forced to clean the plate, my mother from poor family so to fill our plates with good food is one of the ways she showed us love. Well, being forced to eat past the point of being full I lost the ability to know when I was full.

Fattie - not wanting to move around - getting fatter - wanting to move around less = vicious cycle.

I've let myself get out of shape a bit here and there and of course having four kids REALLY made it hard, but because I always had to work hard, I accepted it, got educated, fixed the demons in my head (body image, eating disorder, etc) and moved on to getting stronger and living healthier. The demons are still there, but I tell them to shut the hell up!

I find it very hard to believe that any woman who lets herself go that badly (especially in Hollywood) is very happy. I can understand his love for his wife regardless, but I could also see where this would cause hidden problems. Kudos to him for (at the very least) publicly loving and accepting his wife.
