ELLEN POMPEO SINGS HUSBAND’S PRAISES: Ellen Pompeo has been open about the backlash she faced after revealing that she landed a $20 million payday for her role on Grey’s Anatomy. But now the 48-year-old is also sharing the incredible support her husband of a decade plus has shown her throughout their marriage. “My husband is not at all intimidated by my drive, or my bossiness,” Pompeo told People during the Marie Claire Power Trip, a women’s empowerment conference, about her husband Chris Ivery. “I never thought I’d be at the height of my career at 48 years old. I’m at the top of my game, with no end in sight.” She also said their partnership has helped them be better parents to Stella, 9, Sienna, 4, and Eli, 2. On Father’s Day this year, she gave Ivery a huge shout-out on Instagram: “This man has been my rock… my soulmate …my protector and has given me the three greatest blessings in my life. I don’t know how I got so lucky but Wow am I grateful. I don’t take one minute with you or our beautiful babies for granted. Thank you for your love CI… you are my everything.”

DEMI MOORE OPENS UP ABOUT HER RECOVERY: Demi Moore has come a long way since launching into stardom in 1985 with St. Elmo’s Fire. When she was honored as Woman of the Year by L.A.-based sober living program Peggy Albrecht Friendly House, she explained: “I was spiraling down a path of real self-destruction and no matter what success I had I just never felt good enough. I had absolutely no value for myself and this self-destructive path, it really quickly brought me to a real crisis point. It wasn’t clear at the time, maybe it was divine intervention, but two people who I barely knew stepped up and took a stand for me and presented me with an opportunity, which I guess was more like an ultimatum – unless I was dead, I better show up.” The 29th annual event was hosted by Amber Valetta.
