Blind Item #3
Yes, that was this married foreign born A list double threat who bought an apartment he says is just an investment, but he did move in a lot of his own things and has been staying there alone. Frequently.

ReplyDeleteBenedicy Cumberbatch
ReplyDeleteBenedict Cumberbatch. There was an article published yesterday about him buying a new property in Dartmouth Park and I'm guessing the double threat is his career in TV and film. His wife must be a real piece of work if he's running from her after 3 months of marriage. Feel bad for their kid, but hey, that's often the way it goes in shotgun marriages.
ReplyDeleteWasn't there a BI Reveal that indicated Sophie's pregnancy was longer than she had told Ben?
ReplyDeleteAnd, wasn't there a BI's which indicate she is still secretly seeing her baby's real father on the side?
I think an annulment is in the near future.
The alleged Dartmouth Park property is a semi-attached house not an apartment and is under renovations. Benedict Cumberbatch is rumored however to have an apartment on the IoW and knowing what I do about his Sophie Hunter it wouldn't surprise me. He's going to legitimize the kid and co-parent after that, they have to wait until next year to divorce. But if he's not the babydaddy as more than one BI has already implied things could get get messy. Then again this BI may be about someone like Ewan McGregor, double threat could refer to the fact that he acts and sings. He's a hopeless womanizer from what I've heard.
ReplyDeleteThis is your semi-weekly Cumberbatch reminder to wrap your willy, offer a lady some Plan B in the morning, and for God's sake, DON'T put a ring on it 'cause then you're on the hook for alimony too.
ReplyDeletefor gods sake, why would he live on IoW?? that makes zero sense. her family lives there and it's far away from London. he's starting hamlet rehearsals next month. is he going to drive 4 hours everyday or what? smh.
ReplyDeleteI think the double threat is stage and screen work (he starts rehearsals for that sold out Hamlet at the Barbican in less than a month), not film and TV work.
ReplyDeleteOther than that, my first guess is Cumberbatch, also, based on that Dartmouth Park reference.
It is going to be fascinating watching this play out. If those Bora Bora pap photos were anything to go by, that baby should already be here. She hasn't been seen on the street in London in weeks and I don't doubt one reason he didn't show at the BAFTAS on Sunday was that he didn't want to be asked questions.
are you that one Aeltri who posted at various forums last year very detailed description of that one time Benedict made eye contact with you at some con and wanted to spend night with you? please, share with us, what do you know about Sophie Hunter, we are eager to know! has she made eye contact with you too lol?
ReplyDeleteTriple threat is definitely singing, dancing, and acting (Fred Astaire or Ginger Rogers), so I thought double threat meant two talents, like singing and acting (Barbra Streisand), or acting and dancing (Gregory Hines).
ReplyDeleteI have read that new house in DP is being renovated till next year. But the blind item says he already lives here? He can't live in renovated house, I'm pretty sure there are some safety rules against it. Also he was seen only few days ago in Hampstead. Not saying they live together, but he certainly hasn't moved yet, this BI is wrong.
ReplyDeletedouble threat in my opinion is screen actor (tv, movies) and stage actor (theatre).
ReplyDeleteDepends on what's being renovated. Unless they're gutting the place and starting the bare bones, it's totally liveable. Me and the missus renovated our master bathroom (the only full bath we had) so we were showerless for a few dats. Inconvenient but again, liveable. A man with Cumberbatch's money could get a critical space like that renovated in a day.
ReplyDeleteAlso, since you don't seem familiar with London, I'll go ahead and let you know that Dartmouth Park is right next to Hampstead Heath. About a 10 minute walk, easy.
@TopperMadison, I'm DEFINATELY with you on this & the traditional meaning of the term agrees.Current Triple Threats are:Hugh Jackman,Neil Patrick Harris,Chita Rivera,JT & the like-Double Threats are: Eddie Redmayne,Jared Leto,Idina Menzel,Kristen Bell,Zoe Deschanel
ReplyDeleteThat's not what it's traditionally used for though. It's always been singing, acting, and dancing. Acting on stage, screen, or TV is still acting. So they're not a double threat because they are still only acting. Yes acting on stage and screen are different, but they're still acting. Unless Cumberbatch is known for doing musicals or has an album out then this isn't about him.
ReplyDeleteI know lots of people who have lived in places being renovated - it really depends what's being renovated and to what extent it impacts stuff like roofs/stairs/electrical.
ReplyDeleteActually, her mother lives in Edinburgh and her father in London. She has family "ties" to IOW but that's not where her close family actually live, and given he has to start Hamlet rehearsals soon, why on earth would he plant himself far from London?
ReplyDeleteEXACTLY.
ReplyDeleteDisagree - what it's traditionally used for is pretty meaningless on a site like this. Jackman is Australian and that's where his family are. Unlikely they'd be watching him buying a new place.
ReplyDeleteI'm with you on this one.
ReplyDeleteWhat if next year arrives and they DON'T divorce on your schedule, and/or she's already pregnant with Baby #2?
ReplyDeleteI don't see him ditching this any time, soon, just ensuring that his life is as undisturbed by it as possible.
Loretta Young had a daughter from an affair with Clark Gable (the child looked amazingly like him), never divorced her husband, and the girl grew up hearing the rumors and seeing the resemblance, and Young, a devout Catholic (adultery was apparently OK, but divorce was not by her religious lights), and raised the daughter as her husband's without ever telling the kid the truth staring at the poor kid in the mirror. Everyone in Hollywood knew the baby was Gable/s, nothing ever changed.
I wouldn't bet on Hunter going anywhere any time soon. She's way too comfily settled in, and she's already gotten two theater gig off the Cumberbatch name after not working for years.
Nannies, money, higher profile . . . let him have a place of his own, why would she care?
Re the baby not being his: some men just don't want to know.
It's not meaningless on a site like this. Enty may give ratings for people that everyone doesn't agree with, but terms that are and have been used in show business since basically the beginning of Hollywood are not in the same boat. And why are you mentioning Hugh Jackman? I didn't say anything about him. I was only talking about what double/triple threat means. Whether on stage, screen, or TV you're still only exhibiting one "threat." Acting. If that stage actor also dances or sings, THEN they would be a double threat. If they do all three they're a triple threat. It's always been that way, it will always be that way, and say what you will about Enty, but he doesn't screw up show biz terms that have been around for 70 to 100 years.
ReplyDeleteI thought I had it with Tim McGraw in the random photos, but he's not foreign born, dammit.
ReplyDeleteLOL, she would have burst into flames on the spot. Unlike *some* people I don't give gold-diggers a free pass. Probably wish that they too could work on their backs! Now, why don't you crawl back to that bridge you live under...smfh.
ReplyDeleteAnything can happen but your scenario is not likely. This sham is taking a visible toll on BC, his health and his career are suffering. They may maintain a semblance of normalcy for a time by living at separate residences but not for too long. SH wants to be free to be with her lover from the look of things and she's being shameless about it. To me that does not indicate long term. She's going to build her brand up and cash out. If anything BC did this for a child he thought was his, he didn't go into this marriage looking to adopt. He may annul but he will probably pay SH off to keep her mouth shut about it, he can counter her with her escort photos as he apparently has those. Young and Gable reference doesn't apply, divorce carried a far greater stigma back then and DNA tests weren't available. It would have been far more difficult to prove to the courts that Young's husband was not the father of her daughter. Furthermore Young had a stable marriage, this union on the other hand is built on a foundation of lies.
ReplyDeleteWell, it wouldn't be the first time Enty fudges facts wouldn't it? He's not lying as BC does have an apartment but would logically live at the Dartmouth property. Also, SH was rumored to be living with someone else. Still leaning more towards McGregor but you never know.
ReplyDeleteGod, first he was gay, we all remember BI about Ben(Ben’s boyfriend) and Liv Tyler in 2012. And BI about Katia and 25k. Then he again straight (May BI about BDSM and Laura), then he take off women in the clubs after dinner with his girlfriend, then Sophie beard, oh no, she is living with long-term boyfriend, and then she was an escort, she sleeps with the famous director. Again, at first, Ben is gay (BI about Martin, Amanda, Sophie and Ben), he again straight since slept before to announce the engagement with his colleague (woman). Enty define, Ben is gay or not. And she is pregnant or not. She beard, escort or lives with longtime boyfriend or porno star
ReplyDeleteWay too much assumption of facts without data. I dislike both of them, hang with the stupid, self-obsessed man trapped by an ooops baby foisted on him by one of Harvey Weinstein's clever hangers-on who never made it to the big-time on her own and really needed a big fish to revamp her life - there little I'd put past either of them . . .
ReplyDeleteBut I can't go with your kind of certainty about what is actually going on between them. Maybe he likes being abused. As I've said before, sweet English roses haven't ever seemed to be his style and he could have had his pick among thousands of them.
I'll make a public wager here that next year at this time, they not only aren't divorce/annulled/separated, but she's pregnant with Baby #2. If there's one thing my short life has taught me, it's that you never know what goes on between two people.
Is she a gold digger (nice women generally don't run with Weinstein's crowd)? Yeah. Is he a narcissistic twat with an emotional age of 12 who got hooked with the oldest trick in the book? Yeah. Did something always smell about this and has his PR handled it badly? Yeah.
But that's as far as I'm willing to go with predictions.
Relax - that's why they call it "gossip". Stop worrying and enjoy it.
ReplyDeleteand yet, he married her and not some random chick from audience from comic con that stared at him with heart eyes. keep trying, sweetheart. next time at least change your nick if you're going to describe your "experiences" with actors.
ReplyDelete"This foreign born B- list mostly television actor has been rising the fame charts the past few months. In a big way. Everyone thinks he is gorgeous and was thrilled that he had found a girlfriend. He didn’t though and has had to back way off from being seen with her because his boyfriend was ticked."
ReplyDeleteEnty does not pull out of the closet. Otherwise he would even then revealed this blind item about Ben, Liv Tyler and Ben's boyfriend. Cumber is gay. Poor Olivia and Anna. No wonder he admitted that he had a gay experience in school
totally agree, "gorgeous" has been code name for Cumberbatch in blind items. that one was definitely about him.
ReplyDeleteoops, sorry Yeahsure, that was supposed to go under Diego's post.
ReplyDeletetotally agree, “gorgeous” has been code name for Cumberbatch in blind items. that one was definitely about him.
ReplyDeleteHe married her because she was a canny prostitute who pulled the oldest trick in the book. That much is patently clear but perhaps you are too dense to process that unfortunate fact. I found his stare unsettling, creepy even and also remember that not everyone's like you ;). Hooking up with some dude you just met is ho shit and I ain't with it.
ReplyDelete@ Diego: Wow, that IS Enty speak for BC...you know a while back I also heard rumors that he was stuck in the closet which baffled his parents because they are pretty liberal. He could be bisexual but UTR gay is starting to sound more and more likely. I've had gay men flirt with me before, so it happens. The more he tries to sell this BS fauxmance the stronger he pings. Imagine if he and his bf thought they reached a bearding deal with SH only to find out in the end that both her and her lover conned them. Just ask Neil Patrick Harris etc. for advice and get it over with already BC.
ReplyDeleteThis blind item was after Emmy's 2012, where Ben was with Martin, and hugged Zachary. I think the selection is small.
ReplyDeleteAll british men look little gay. Martin Freeman said in an interview that everyne is bisexual. Probably speaking from own experience. And Cumberbatch admitted he fooled around with guys. Maybe they hooked up during Sherlock, i wouldn't be surprised. Haha.
ReplyDelete"And Cumberbatch admitted he fooled around with guys"
ReplyDeleteWhat?
yeah, he admitted it in the interview for Out Magazine in september or october 2014. he was experimenting with guys in high school.
ReplyDeleteoh god. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brambletye_School
ReplyDeleteTom Hardy admitted that he had relationships with men. Michael Fassbender admitted that he had relationships with men. About Tom Hiddleston been rumors about his relationship with Kenneth Branagh. Eddie Redmayne had a relationship with the guys while playing on Broadway. Bradley Cooper is gay, Leonardo DiCaprio is gay, Lee Pace is gay, Richard Armitage is gay, Elijah Wood is gay, Hugh Jackman is gay, every second actor is gay. So what surprised.
ReplyDeleteExactly, Jeremy Renner literally lives with his wife and boyfriend in the same house.
ReplyDeleteLIVED. JR and his beard divorced not too long ago, she tried to take him to the cleaners by contesting the prenup. Luckily judge ruled in JR's favor. From the look of things BC will be in the same boat soon enough. Then again maybe not because in JR's case the kid was actually his.
