She told FOX, "We never had an argument, an unkind word in 15 years," she added. "So, that was my reality." As for her opinion on Kelly's chapter on Regis, Kathy Lee would only share, "I'm not going to say anything ugly about anybody. I never have, and I'm not going to start now. I'm just saying my reality is something completely different from that." When asked if Regis' widow, Joy, would be upset over what Kelly claims, Kathy Lee said her first thought was, "Lord. Protect Joy and the girls from this." And for why she's dishing the dirt, Kelly said, "I don't want to feel like I'm slamming anyone or that I'm being disrespectful, but, I also want people to know it was not a cakewalk."

Kourtney Kardashian said her 10-year-old daughter, Penelope, still sleeps with her pretty much every night, according to OK. She said, "She's slept with me every day since she was born and pretty much still does." Kourtney's always let her kids sleep with her, mostly because it was just easier. She explained, "I didn't have to get up out of bed to get the kids back to sleep when they woke up during the night. It was easier when one of the kids woke up, since I was right there. … It's what worked for all of us to get the most sleep, so I quickly embraced it. Also, as a working mom, if I didn't have much time with the kids during the day, at least I knew we'd have the evening together as a family." I guess her kids were gentler sleepers than mine. I slept with one eye open, never knowing when I would get a foot to the face.
