Jennie Garth shocked when ex-husband Peter Facinelli joined Raya in search of a younger woman
Jennie Garth was shocked to learn her ex-husband wanted to date women around the age of their eldest daughter.
The 53-year-old actress split from the Twilight actor - with whom she has Luca, 27, Lola, 22, and 18-year-old Fiona, while he also has two-year-old Jack with fiancee Lily Anne Harrison - in 2013 and she's told how Luca "came across" her 51-year-old dad's profile on exclusive dating app Raya.
Speaking on the I Do, Part 2 podcast, she said: 'My ex-husband Peter, I was told, was on Raya, and his age, whatever range, that he was looking for was also the age range of his oldest daughter."
Last year, the Beverly Hills 90210 star - who is now married to Dave Abrams - invited Peter onto her podcast, I Choose Me, and the pair reflected on how their relationship has changed in the years since their marriage ended.
Peter said: 'We haven't really spoken a lot about life stuff in years, so I honestly don't know you and I don't think you know me.
"And yet, it's like when you go home and you're with your mom or your dad or, you know, your sisters and they just treat you like you're 16, 17, 18, like, you know the time they saw you last when you were younger, and so there's this feeling of like, 'Oh, I know her because we were together for so long, but you've grown into this mature, wonderful adult woman and I've grown.''
Meanwhile, this week Fiona joined Jennie on the podcast and they called the Supergirl actor to discuss the teenager's recent high school graduation, with Peter admitting it had left him feeling "numb" to see his "baby" growing up.
He said: 'I feel very numb. Honestly, it's been a very numbing experience. Yeah. I don't know if it's all hit me yet.
'You know, you're our baby, so you're all growing up and it's a whole new chapter. And I feel like I don't know how to feel. I really feel like I haven't fully experienced all the emotions.'
While Fiona acknowledged she also felt "a little numb", she was also "really happy".
She said: 'Honestly, it feels like I'm just so happy that I don't have to go back to high school.
"I feel a little numb too, like, definitely hasn't set in that I'm not going back, you know, like when summer ends. But I am actually really happy and I feel like kind of just at peace.
'It's really nice, like, waking up and not feeling stressed to do anything, like just kind of having a moment to just kind of regenerate.
'And it's different from most summers because usually when school ends for that year, you always think about, oh, I'm going back and I have like summer reading to do.
"But right now, I just feel like I'm moving on to the next thing, and although change feels scary a little bit, like, I don't really know what to expect. I feel like it's going to be good.'

Tori Spelling's son wants her to join 'OnlyFans for feet'
Tori Spelling's 12-year-old son wants her to sell photos of her feet. The Beverly Hills 90210 star - who has Liam, 18, Stella, 17, Hattie, 13, Finn, 12, and eight-year-old Beau with ex-husband Dean McDermott - admitted Finn has spent three years trying to persuade her to sign up for a website that offers "niche" image of "dirty" trotters and "weird toes" because he thinks she could make a lot of money. Speaking on her misSPELLING podcast, she said: "So my 12 year old is trying to convince me, not convince me. Fine, he's mentioned it many times that he really thinks that I should go on FeetFinder. "It's like an OnlyFans for feet. First of all, this kid told me about it. He started pitching this like three years ago, and he's 12. And I'm like, 'What is this? I don't know what it is.' "People post photos of their feet, and they make money. And there's like niches. You know, people have fetishes. They want pictures of dirty feet They want pictures of weird toes, they want pictures. "He's like mom, 'You're Tori Spelling,' and he pitches this. 'You're the OG Donna Martin. Imagine how much money you would make. And he knows, if I make money, I make it for them." Tori, 51, previously admitted a conversation with her daughter Hattie led to her ending her marriage to Dean. Speaking on her podcast, Tori revealed Hattie asked her: "Have you ever considered what it would be like to be with someone else and not dad and get treated right?" Although Tori insisted that Hattie "loves her dad", the question made her consider if staying in the marriage was the best thing for the kids. She explained: "It got to the point where it was worse for the kids to see us together. We could no longer hide what was happening, the fights." Tori also revealed that Dean's alcoholism took a toll, saying: "He was an addict going through a lot, and a lot of it was taken out on me. "And she saw that. I didn't like the person I was, trying to raise strong humans and just taking it and taking it. "On my part, at least, the want of kids, just always wanting their parents together, I think kept me from making what was outwardly a better decision for them than what they saw between two partners. "That kept me in the relationship far too long, and it ultimately, I feel, did a disservice to my kids."

James Gunn issues update on The Batman II and Wonder Woman
James Gunn is expecting to see The Batman: Part II script "shortly". The DC Studios co-CEO admitted he "can't wait" to read the screenplay for the forthcoming film, which will see Robert Pattinson reprise his role as Batman/ Bruce Wayne, and he admitted director Matt Reeves is doing some "really important" work. Speaking to Entertainment Weekly, he said: "What Matt's doing is still really important, despite all stories to the contrary. "We're supposed to see that script shortly, and I can't wait." Gunn also confirmed the script for the DC Universe's (DCU's) Wonder Woman movie is "being written right now". Pattinson, 39, first portrayed The Dark Knight in Reeves' 2022 movie The Batman, but the actor fears he is going to be "old" by the time he makes The Batman: Part II. Speaking recently with his Mickey 17 co-star Naomi Ackie about whether he'd play Batman again soon for Hero magazine, Pattinson said: "I f****** hope so. "I started out as young Batman and I'm going to be f****** old Batman by the sequel." Despite his advancing years, the Twilight star insisted he was "healthier" and had lowered his "biological age". Speaking in March, ahead of turning 39 in May, Pattinson said: "I'm 38, I'm old. I'm old, but I'm healthier. I think I've actually brought my biological age down a bit." The Batman: Part II was initially slated to hit cinemas in October 2026, but the movie was delayed to the following year to allow Reeves enough time to complete the script. Gunn later defended the push back. He wrote on Threads: "To be fair, a 5 year gap or more is fairly common in sequels. 7 years between Alien and Aliens. 14 years between Incredibles. 7 years between the first two Terminators. 13 years between Avatars. 36 years between Top Guns. And, of course, 6 years between Guardians Vol 2 and Vol 3." Pattinson recently confirmed principal photography on The Batman: Part II would begin at the end of 2025.
