It’s been more than a year since Jenny McCarthy and Donnie Wahlberg got married. Their wedding was held in early September 2014. Time flies, right? I thought they only got married a few months ago! Anyway, now that they’ve made it through their first year of marriage, the rumors have started up about everything’s going to end in divorce. You see, Donnie wants Jenny to be a “traditional” kind of wife. Like, he wants her at home with the kids, barefoot and in the kitchen. Which she seemed fine with in the early months, with Jenny even declaring that she was “tired” of being so strong and independent and she was ready to fully commit to being “Mrs. Wahlberg.” But according to Star Magazine’s sources, there’s trouble in 1950s paradise.
When asked in February about her relationship with husband Donnie Wahlberg, Jenny McCarthy said, “I want to be dependent and a girl and a wife and domesticated. I want to be Mrs. Wahlberg.” But in reality, a source says, Jenny, 42, is hardly the Happy Homemaker.
“Their marriage is doomed,” a source says of the couple’s yearlong marriage. “It’s just a matter of time before they split. Donnie expects Jenny to behave like a wife, cooking and taking care of the family instead of relying on outside help. But she resists his alpha male act.”
After dating for about a year, Donnie, 46, and Jenny married in August 2014, broadcasting their love to the world, literally—the first episode of their A&E show, Donnie Loves Jenny, was titlted “The Wedding.” But as time went on, the source says, the cracks began to show.
Her rep denies it, but the source maintains, “She’s in danger of driving him out the door.”
The quirks that initially attracted Donnie to his bubbly blonde bride now only serve to annoy him.
“When she gets a tattoo or dyes her hair on a whim it drives Donnie crazy,” the insider says. “He tells her to act like an adult.”
To make matters worse, they have conflicting ideas about how to parent their blended family (he has two sons, she has one), and the sources say Jenny wants to rule the roost there.
“She won’t let him be a strong father figure,” says the insider. At this point, the insider says, their reality show may be the only thing holding them together, predicting: “Once it’s over, their relationship could be too.”
I don’t understand what “She won’t let him be a strong father figure” means? Does it mean she doesn’t want Donnie to spend time with her son? I don’t get it. As for Jenny not acting like an adult – it’s true that she dyed her hair pink several months ago. It seemed like a desperate famewhore kind of move designed to promote their reality show, but when she debuted the look, Donnie seemed to love it. I don’t know if I think they will be over in two seconds or whether they’ll be together forever because they somehow complement each other in stupid/crazy.
