Okay, so my husband was not quite as excited by this news as I was. A recap of our conversation about it. http://idoalready.tumblr.com/post/29344064627/my-dinner-with-shesaid

So those rumors about them having been on the verge of a breakup were probably true.

This guy looks like the biggest coat-tail rider - I'll bet they get married, and he divorces her and seeks alimony if his career ever takes off.

Otherwise maybe he'll be content to be like James Brolin (aka Mr. Barbra Streisand).
