January 25, 2013

Sad news from Hallmark Channel's Home & Family host Mark Steines. The television journalist -- who previously appeared on Entertainment Tonight -- is separating from his wife of 17 years, actress Leanza Cornett, the couple told Us Weekly exclusively. They have two children together, Kai Harper, 10, and Avery "A.J." James, 9.

The spouses confirmed the split in a joint statement: "After a great deal of thought and consideration, we have decided to dissolve our 17-year marriage. At this time our concern is for our boys as we help them with this difficult transition. We ask that you respect our privacy during this difficult time."

Steines, 48, married 1993 Miss America winner Cornett, 41, on the Hawaiian island of Kauai on July 22, 1995. That same year, he started as a correspondent for Entertainment Tonight, which he later hosted from 2004 to 2012. He currently co-hosts the daily lifestyle series Home & Family with Cristina Ferrare.

You can't be a nice guy and get a divorce? Anyway he is gorgeous. She should not be wearing that low cut dress with her sagging b o ob s. Too old for that c r a p.

I wonder what happened with his job on ET. I hate the new music on that show and the OMG Insider show is horrible. Sad about the split.

That's so sad. He always seemed like a nice guy. Hopefully, the divorce can be amicable for the kids.
