Child Custody Battles - Alec Baldwin

The parents: Alec Baldwin and Kim Basinger
 
The offspring: Their daughter, Ireland (born in 1995), who also goes by the nickname Addie
 
The scandal: After Basinger and Baldwin split up in 2000, they accused each other of being unfit parents. She said he was emotionally abusive, and he claimed she was mentally unstable. Their legal warfare resulted in a 2004 court judgment of shared custody on the condition that they not violate a gag order that prevents them from publicly talking about the case. In April 2007, an angry voice-mail recording of Alec Baldwin was leaked to the media. In the recording, Baldwin called Ireland “a thoughtless little pig.” As a result of the scandal, his visitation rights were temporarily suspended.
 
The outcome: After Baldwin publicly apologized for his outburst, his visitation rights were restored. His legal team accused Basinger of violating the gag order by leaking the recording, but the allegation was unproven in a court of law. Although the ex-couple has shared custody, the animosity between the two clearly remains.

Child Custody Battles - Britney Spears

The parents: Britney Spears and Kevin Federline

 

The offspring: Their sons, Sean Preston (born in 2005) and Jayden James (born in 2006)

 

The scandal: The bitter custody battle between Spears and ex-husband Federline included explosive accusations that she’s a drug and alcohol abuser who frequently puts her kids in danger.

 

The outcome: In October 2007, Spears made headlines around the world (again) when she became the first major female celebrity in years to lose custody of her children. She lost custody because she reportedly failed to follow a court order that required her not to drive without a valid license, and to undergo random drug testing and parental counseling.

Charlie Sheen Loses Custody of Twins

Charlie Sheen has been attracting a lot of attention lately – including from the cops.

LAPD officials confirmed a Thursday night visit to his home in a Beverly Hills gated community. "LAPD detectives responded to Charlie Sheen's home this evening to investigate a possible violation of a temporary restraining order," LAPD spokeswoman Norma Eisenman tells PEOPLE.

"It came to the attention of the LAPD that Sheen is the registered owner of firearms," the LAPD said in a statement late Thursday night, and conducted their investigation at Sheen's home "to determine if he is in possession of firearms and ammunition in violation of the [restraining order]."

Police visited Sheen last week to remove his twin boys from his custody after his estranged wife Brooke Mueller obtained a restraining order.

Earlier Thursday, the former couple reached a private custody agreement, but per standard temporary restraining orders, "the restrained person cannot possess, have, buy or try to buy, receive or try to receive, or in any other way get guns, other firearms or ammunition."

With police still at the home, goddess Natalie Kenly downplayed the events to PEOPLE, saying, "Everything is fine. Nothing to worry about."

Arnold Schwarzenegger Divorced?

Arnold Schwarzenegger's humiliated wife Maria Shriver could be set to terminate her marriage with her love-rat husband after hiring a top celebrity divorce lawyer, according to U.S. reports.

Shriver, 55, has reportedly hired California-based family lawyer Laura Wasser whose previous clients include Angelina Jolie, Christina Aguilera, Stevie Wonder, Kiefer Sutherland, and Britney Spears to represent her following her split from husband Arnold Schwarzenegger, 63, amid his love-child scandal.

"Maria hasn't decided yet if she wants to end her marriage," a source close to Shriver told U.S. publication People.

Wasser was hired before the news of the affair went public, the source added. Shriver is separated from the former governor who has admitted to fathering a child with another woman, reportedly a longtime housekeeper.

The alleged mother of Arnold Schwarzenegger's lovechild was yesterday named by a U.S. website as Mildred 'Patty' Baena.

Baena, 50, reportedly fell pregnant while she was working for the former California Governor and his wife Maria Schriver.

Baene is understood to have worked as a housekeeper for Schwarzenegger up until January.

The former California governor admitted in a statement earlier this week that his split from Maria Shriver was partly due to him fathering a child with a member of his household staff.

According to The Los Angeles Times, the employee worked for the family for 20 years and gave birth to the actor's child over a decade ago.

The article also notes that Maria moved out of the family's Brentwood home earlier this year, after Schwarzenegger acknowledged the paternity.

It is believed to be with his former housekeeper Mildred Baena

Arnold said in a statement to the publication: 'After leaving the governor's office I told my wife about this event, which occurred over a decade ago.

'I understand and deserve the feelings of anger and disappointment among my friends and family. There are no excuses and I take full responsibility for the hurt I have caused. I have apologised to Maria, my children and my family. I am truly sorry.

'I ask that the media respect my wife and children through this extremely difficult time. While I deserve your attention and criticism, my family does not.'

A spokesman for Shriver, 55, who was married to Arnold for 25 years, said: 'This is a painful and heartbreaking time.

'As a mother, my concern is for the children. I ask for compassion, respect and privacy as my children and I try to rebuild our lives and heal. I will have no further comment.'

Two of their four children posted on Twitter, expressing their love for their family.

'Some days you feel like s***, some days you want to quit and just be normal for a bit,' tweeted 17-year-old Patrick Schwarzenegger.
'Yet I love my family till death do us apart.'

His 21-year-old sister, Katherine Schwarzenegger, followed later in the day.

'This is definitely not easy but I appreciate your love and support as i begin to heal and move forward in life,' she said. 'I will always love my family!'
