LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian Land VH1 Reality Show
Move over, Brandi Glanville. LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian have landed their own reality TV show.
Joining forces with VH1, the couple's new show will bring the truth and make fun of all the gossip. LeAnn & Eddie (working title) is set to premiere on VH1 in the Fall 2013/Winter 2014 with 6 half-hour episodes.
"We are really excited to be working together on a unique show that will give you a glimpse into who we really are or better yet who we're really not. We're thrilled to partner with VH1 and The Gurneys to put our spin on a project full of love, humor and music," LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian said in a statement obtained by EnStars.
“LeAnn and Eddie are both talented entertainers who have really captured the public’s imagination in the last couple of years, but there is so much more to them than what you read in the tabloids,” said Tom Calderone, President of VH1. “This is going to be a really fun show in which we hope to reveal what their lives are really like - from the normalcy of their home life, to what drives them artistically, to the chaos of their celebrity life.”
The show will focus on their life at home. The married couple, who both have careers, are also learning how to navigate the co-parenting of Eddie’s two sons.
"Life outside the home for them is very different because they live in a fishbowl where the paparazzi stalk them, the tabloids report on any detail and the public gets only part of the real story," the press release said of the show. "With LeAnn & Eddie, they look forward to sharing a bit of their world and poke fun at what it’s like to be a high-profile couple with more than a little misinformation out there about them."
The couple's affair made their the center of Hollywood gossip.
While still married to Dean Sheremet, Rimes had an affair in 2009 with actor Cibrian, while both co-starred in Northern Lights. Cibrian filed for divorce from Brandi Glanville (The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills) in August 2009, after eight years of marriage.
In June 2010, Rimes spoke for the first time about the end of her first marriage, stating, "I take responsibility for everything I've done. I hate that people got hurt...But I don't regret the outcome."
On December 27, 2010, it was announced via Billboard that Rimes and Cibrian were engaged. Rimes and Cibrian wed on April 22, 2011 at a private home in California.
