‘My Best Friend's Wedding' Star Splits From Wife After 14 Years of Marriage

Calling it quits!
Dermot Mulroney and his wife, Prima Apollinaare, have decided to split after 14 years of marriage, according to multiple reports.
TMZ reported that the My Best Friend's Wedding actor asked for Apollinaare to be blocked from receiving spousal support from him, and he requested that she pay him spousal support instead. Mulroney filed for a 'standard dissolution of marriage" and cited 'irreconcilable differences' as the reason the two want to go their separate ways, according to Us Weekly.
Apollinaare, who is an Italian musician, and the former Friends actor mostly kept their relationship out of the spotlight, and they were rarely photographed at events together. However, at SXSW in 2022, Apollinaare made an appearance in support of Mulroney's film Gone In the Night in which he starred alongside Winona Ryder.
Mulroney previously married actress Catherine Keener in 1990, and the two welcomed their son, Clyde, in 1997. However, in 2007, they parted ways. After Mulroney and the Being John Malkovitch actress' divorce, he and Apollinaare (who was originally named Tharita Cutulle) tied the knot in 2010. They welcomed two daughters during their marriage, Mabel and Sally.

"I'm not quite so buttoned up. I've lived in California now for 30 years and travelled around. I'm a pretty easy-going guy, so yes, not so straight and narrow as a parent," the New Girl alum said of his parenting style during an interview with The Hollywood News published on January 19, 2016.
He continued, "I try to keep arts in front of them, whether it's music or even just museum trips. I don't expect anything of them. It's hard enough for everyone just to get their homework done at night. Let's just get them through grade school, and then see. We've all certainly seen that being a child actor is unhealthy so, I wouldn't do that."

'Karate Kid' Star Martin Kove Under Fire Over Alleged Assault Of Actress That Nearly Drew Blood
best known for his role as sensei John Kreese in "The Karate Kid" and Netflix's "," was reportedly kicked out of a Washington State fan convention over the weekend after an alleged physical altercation with a fellow cast member prompted police involvement. According to a police report, actress Alicia Hannah-Kim accused Kove of biting her on the arm so hard it left a visible bruise and nearly broke the skin. The incident reportedly occurred at Summer Con in Puyallup, Washington, while both Martin Kove and Alicia Hannah-Kim were in the VIP area. Per the report obtained by TMZ, Hannah-Kim, who plays Kim Da-Eun in "Cobra Kai," told authorities that she was simply passing by and greeted Kove when he suddenly grabbed her arm and bit down. When she cried out in pain, she claims he responded by kissing the same spot on her arm. Both the actress and her husband, who witnessed the alleged bite, confronted Kove immediately, telling him his behavior was unacceptable. According to the police report, Kove allegedly became "furious and outraged," insisting that the bite was "for fun." An officer present at the event reportedly informed Kove that what he had done was considered a crime and instructed him to remain at the scene while the matter was addressed. Although Hannah-Kim declined to press formal charges, she did request that an informational report be filed and provided statements alongside her husband in the event of any future issues. Police took photographs of what they described as a "very noticeable bite mark" that was already turning blue and bruising. Following the confrontation, Kove appeared to acknowledge the seriousness of his actions. He reportedly apologized to both Hannah-Kim and her husband in front of the officer before being escorted out of the venue. Police advised him never to repeat such behavior. While Martin Kove's weekend headlines were dominated by controversy, the actor also closed a major chapter in his career with the emotional series finale of "Cobra Kai." Reprising his iconic role as John Kreese, Kove saw his character come full circle in the final five episodes of the Netflix series. Once a one-dimensional villain from "The Karate Kid," Kreese was given new depth in "Cobra Kai," a transformation Kove insisted on before joining the show. "I said, 'Listen, I don't want to play this character like I did the movie,'" Kove told Variety. "I want to play him with vulnerability, with flashbacks, with emotionality." The show delivered on that promise, portraying Kreese as a man driven by pain and misguided loyalty. That complexity came to a head after the death of Kwon, who accidentally impaled himself on Kreese's knife. "I personally saw my body there," Kove recalled of filming the scene. "It's frustrating when people see me as a bad guy, because I cry at supermarket openings. I love vulnerability." In the finale, Kreese parts ways with Cobra Kai, symbolically passing the torch to Johnny Lawrence, whom he finally embraces as a son. "It's my favorite scene of any scene ever," Kove said. "Johnny was the best, and I was attracted to being his father, because I never had children. He was my son." But true to character, Kreese goes out swinging. In a dramatic showdown with Terry Silver aboard a yacht, the former sensei sacrifices himself in a fiery explosion to protect Johnny and his family. Or so it seems, "Cobra Kai" fans know better than to rule out one last return. Despite portraying one of the most fearsome figures in the Cobra Kai universe, Martin Kove isn't nearly as intimidating off-camera, at least according to his co-stars. During a recent Variety panel, senior TV writer Joe Otterson asked cast members Ralph Macchio, William "Billy" Zabka, Courtney Henggeler, and Vanessa Rubio just how intimidating "Marty" Kove really is behind the scenes. Henggeler, who plays Amanda LaRusso, didn't directly answer the question, but shared a vivid memory that captured Kove's unique aura. "I feel like we're making one show and Marty's in a completely different series," she joked, recalling a moment when she and Rubio spotted Kove "smoking a cigar, talking on the phone, wearing the coolest sunglasses." "I want to be on Marty's series," she added. "He's just cooler than anybody that we got going on. He's just his own vibe." Meanwhile, Zabka, who plays Johnny Lawrence, described Kove as "very sweet" and even "a big brother" in many ways. He praised the veteran actor's dedication to exploring Kreese's complexity. "He's been enjoying getting to dive into some of the more vulnerable areas of John Kreese," Zabka said, noting Kove's efforts to bring more than just menace to the iconic sensei. As of now, Kove has not publicly commented on the assault allegations.

Iconic '80s Rocker, 64, Nearly Unrecognizable in Rare Public Outing
Iconic '80s Rocker, 64, Nearly Unrecognizable in Rare Public Outing originally appeared on Parade. A member of a hugely popular '80s rock band was out interacting with fans in Italy over the weekend. John Taylor, founding member and bassist for legendary '80s new wave rock group Duran Duran, was photographed walking through the streets of Rome, Italy, on Sunday, June 15, where he stopped to interact with some fans. Duran Duran, made up of Taylor, Nick Rhodes, Simon Le Bon and Roger Taylor (no relation), is considered one of the biggest bands that was part of the Second British Invasion of U.S. music, this one largely fueled by the rise of MTV and music videos. The new wave group burst on the scene with cinematic, sometimes eyebrow-raising music videos for their songs "Girls on Film," "Hungry Like the Wolf" and "Rio," plus they topped U.S. charts with their James Bond theme song for the film of the same name, "A View to a Kill."In fact, Duran Duran won two Grammy Awards for their music videos, both in 1984 — Best Music Video Short Form for "Girls on Film" and "Hungry Like the Wolf," and Best Music Video Long Form for their self-titled video album. The band received the MTV Video Music Awards Lifetime Achievement Award in 2003 and was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2022. Their Hall of Fame induction actually led to their most recent album, Danse Macabre. They were basically doing a warm-up for the Hall of Fame ceremony that involved a Halloween-themed concert and that led to the album, which is full of spooky covers of their greatest hits, covers of other artists' songs, plus three new songs. John Taylor told Classic Pop Mag of the album, "On Danse Macabre, you can really see behind the curtain of who the whole band is." 🎬 SIGN UP for Parade's Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news & celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox 🎬 Iconic '80s Rocker, 64, Nearly Unrecognizable in Rare Public Outing first appeared on Parade on Jun 16, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade on Jun 16, 2025, where it first appeared.
