Convicted killer Robert O. Marshall, whose life inspired the best-selling true-crime book Blind Faith and whose upcoming parole hearing divided his sons over whether he was innocent or guilty of the 1984 murder-for-hire of their mother, has died in prison, his son says. Christopher Marshall, speaking to the Asbury Park Press, says his father died Saturday after more than 30 years behind bars in New Jersey. Christopher, 48, and his brother Roby, 49, firmly opposed their father's possible release after he was convicted of the contract killing of his wife Maria, then 42, allegedly to collect a $1.5 million insurance policy. Their youngest brother, John, 44, has...

Carnie Wilson, Tracey Gold star in 'Celebrity Wife Swap' premiere: Will you 'Hold On' to the series?
It’s amazing the television you’ll put up with when you’re sick. Sidelined by salmonella over the past four days (turns out my eighth-grade home-economics teacher was right: Never eat the batter, no matter how good it looks), I’ve spent my nauseated time watching approximately 11 episodes of Law & Order: Svu, the premiere of the so-depressing-it’s-good The Bachelor, and the premiere of the so-depressing-it’s-depressing Celebrity Wife Swap. In a healthy state, I would have made myself a nice dessert, gone for a brisk walk outside, or even read another chapter of my book, but, thanks to my immobility,...

Beloved U.S. TV star Tracey Gold has given birth to her fourth son.
The former Growing Pains star had an April Fool's Day baby on Tuesday night at Tarzana Hospital in California.
Gold and her husband, Roby Marshall, have named the child Dylan Christopher.
The couple already has three boys - Sage, 11, Bailey, nine, and Aiden, three.
Gold refused to follow Hollywood trends, and went public with her baby's sex and name back in February.
The 38-year-old and her husband of 13 years are already reconsidering plans not to get pregnant again.
She adds, "I say that I'm done but we're not closing the door. We're not having a vasectomy."
But Gold accepts she'll probably never have a girl: "I come from a family of five girls, so I know that when you keep having one of the same... But I just love babies and I love a big family."...
