He gets his fair share of drama on the series ‘Gossip Girl’, but there are more problems in real life for actor Billy Baldwin. The star’s fresh-out-of-rehab wife, singer/actress Chynna Phillips, has filed for divorce.
However, just two days later, she had a change of heart and withdrew the divorce request, reportedly because she wanted to save her 18-year marriage, which has produced in three children.
An insider tells us, “Chynna has gone under a lot of personal and professional stress. The divorce petition came after a long and emotional build-up. But once it was filed, she realised she didn’t want to lose Billy and asked her lawyers to withdraw it.”
Chynna recently checked herself into rehab to deal with stress. Last year, her half-sister Mackenzie claimed that she had endured a decade-long sexual relationship with their father John Phillips, of The oamas and The Papas fame. Chynna admitted that she “felt like all my plates were in the air and at any moment one would come crashing down”.
of the rash divorce decisions, Chynna and Billy’s manager, Lizzie Grubman, says, “Every married couple has its up and downs, but they are two people who have been together for 18 years and are deeply in love. They will work through their personal issues and they are committed to staying together.”
