Former celebrity couple Kim Basinger and Alec Baldwin have a new battle for the courts to decide. This time, Baldwin's book plans are at the centre of the dispute. Basinger (L.A. Confidential, Batman, 8 Mile) has filed papers in court to block her ex-husband from publishing a book about their divorce. Alec Baldwin (Beetle Juice, The Aviator, The Hunt for Red October) plans to write a book entitled A Promise to Ourselves, which will detail the couple's separation and divorce and plans to use his book to help educate the public on the legal system, which he thinks favours mothers in custody issues. Basinger and Baldwin split in 2000 after seven years of marriage and have struggled ever since in a bitter custody battle over their daughter, Ireland. |
