Well that didn’t take too long. It was just last week or so that all of us on the gossip circuit heard that Jodie Foster and her partner of fourteen years had split up. (It wasn’t that long ago that Jodie publicly acknowleged her former partner Cydney Bernard, with whom she has two young children.) And thankfully we have the always reliable National Enquirer to give us all the scoopage on the lesbianonic drama.

JODIE FOSTER’S NEWEST GF
Jodie Foster cheated on her lesbian partner of 14 years with a younger, prettier woman who is now her new girlfriend!
The ENQUIRER has learned exclusively that the Oscar winner’s new love is brunette Cindy Mort, a producer and screenwriter she met on the set of her 2007 film The Brave One.
The 47-year-old star’s new squeeze is the former partner of thirtysomething actress Melanie Mayron — with whom she has two children!
Meanwhile, 55-year-old Cydney Bernard is still living with Jodie but their romance is over, say sources.
Jodie has never publicly identified the father of her 6- and 9-year-old sons, Charles and Kit.
” Although she and Cydney remain under the same roof at the moment,” a close pal told The ENQUIRER, “the relationship has been shattered.?
To complicate matters, Cindy, 51, remains friends with her ex-partner Melanie — and the two women live in separate houses on the same Los Angeles street.
Jodie plans to move into one of her Hollywood homes full-time, and ex-Cydney will live in another, disclosed a source close to Jodie.
“They’ll continue to raise the boys together and try to keep a loving family unit despite their breakup.
“The love is gone,” said the source.
My favorite part of all this crap is how the Enquirer is pointing out that Foster left her partner for a “younger, prettier woman.” Uh, really? I googled the younger, prettier Cindy Mort and while she is apparently younger (by about four years) and may be prettier (depending on your definition of “pretty”) it certainly isn’t as salacious as all that. When I read “younger and prettier” I thought that Foster had taken up with someone from The Hills or with a checkout girl from Hot Topic or something. And if this story had been reported about a heterosexual couple, then age difference wouldn’t have even been mentioned (or more, likely, it would have been alluded to because the “younger, prettier” woman WOULD have been the checkout girl from Hot Topic, or maybe the coat check girl from the Roxy.
So, while I think its sad that a long term relationship (and one with young children) is breaking up, it’s not really all gross or has a drastic age difference (I’m looking at you, Ellen DeGeneres). If Jodie Foster had to cheat, at least she did it with someone age appropriate. So there.
