Aaaw, Mel! Just Another Hollywood Husband!

When Mel Gibson and his wife (of umpteenth years) threw in the towel and called it quits, I was crestfallen.

I mean, here was a Hollywood hunk who managed to be faithful to his wife and mother of his six ( I think) kids amid all the temptation in tinseltown.

I took my hat off for this man. I thought -- hey, not bad. He could stay good for his wife and kids.

I suppose Mel Gibson was able to go on just for as long as his libido - and ok ok, his heart -- allow.

Mel Gibson is just another Hollywood husband. He bites the dust.

Why I am disappointed -- and I know I shouldn't be -- is that all around him were marriages falling apart at the slightest excuse. He remained with wife , Robyn. And Robyn with him, through thick and thin. In sickness and in health.

Of course, he has denied that his divorce was caused by his affair with this younger woman. Aaah....they all say that!

The girlfriend is a stunner of a belle from Eastern Europe. Couldn't resist her, could you?
Damn!

Men!

Here's the story:

It's official: Mel Gibson's girlfriend, Oksana Grigorieva, is pregnant.

The actor confirmed the news during a taping of NBC's The Tonight Show With Jay Leno to air tonight.

"I guess Im 'Octo-Mel,'" says Gibson, who already has seven kids with his wife of 28 years, Robyn.

Robyn filed for divorce six weeks ago amidst speculation that Grigorieva, a singer on Gibson's record label, was expecting a child.

"My wife and I, our marriage ended three years ago and weve been separated ever since then," Gibson tells Leno. "These things happen. It's unfortunate, it's sad, but you know she is an admirable woman -- we still got kids together, we're friends.

"Look," Gibson continues. "When it's all said and done, I did a pretty good hatchet job on my marriage myself. I'm to blame. If you're inclined to judge, put it here."

Gibson also says his separation from Robyn had nothing to do with Grigorieva, whom he didn't meet until 2008.

When asked by Leno if they would wed, Gibson says: "Why would you get married twice?"

According to reports, Grigorieva is in her second trimester and due this fall.
Grigorieva, 38, and Gibson, 53, came out publicly as a couple at the April 29 premiere of X-Men Origins: Wolverine in Los Angeles.

The duo became close after Grigorieva was hired to compose a song on Gibson's thriller, Edge of Darkness, which filmed last summer in Massachusetts.
