Rosie O'Donnell's estranged wife 'hospitalized after suicide attempt' - a week after photos surfaced of her ex on romantic getaway with new girlfriend Tatum O'Neal
The estranged wife of Rosie O'Donnell has been hospitalized in New York. Radar Online reports that Michelle Rounds was rushed to the hospital Tuesday night after a concerned friend called police who then kicked down the door to her hotel room. Rounds had allegedly 'taken some pills and drank wine' according to an insider. The incident comes just one week after DailyMail.com released exclusive photos of O'Donnell and her new girlfriend Tatum O'Neal at her new West Palm Beach Mansion.
Radar Online reports 'Rounds was taken to Nyack Hospital, where she remains under doctors’ care today. Her medical status is currently unknown.' She was reportedly alone at the time she was discovered at the Doubletree hotel in Nanuet and not with her daughter with O'Donnell, two-year-old Dakota. 'Michelle was very depressed lately over the divorce and custody battle with Rosie,' said the insider. 'In fact, in the past few days her and Rosie spoke and they had a bitter argument.'
On Tuesday, O'Donnell retweeted a video that has recently gone viral of a young girl, 6, asking that everyone be friends - especially her divorced parents. Rounds, 43, and O'Donnell, 53, separated last November a little over two years after being married in June 2012, with the talk show host filing for divorce in February. The two have been fighting ever since in court, with the primary issue being the custody of their adopted daughter Dakota. Rounds had requested sole custody initially claiming she was a more attentive parent, and TMZ reported in May that she then said O'Donnell should be subject to drug tests because of her excessive drinking and marijuana usage. O'Donnell's relationship with O'Neal meanwhile - which began this summer - has heated up recently, with the two taking off on vacation last week. Photos showed them laying by the pool and boating while spending time at O'Donnell's newly purchased $4.975million mansion, which she scooped up in July. O'Donnell and O'Neal, 51, were both in need of downtime as they were recovering from health scares. O'Donnell had a minor heart procedure in New York at the beginning of the month, while Tatum was under the knife for a second operation on her knee in Los Angeles.
O'Neal, who has three grown children from her marriage to tennis great John McEnroe, announced she was 'dating mostly women' in an interview with People in May, saying; 'Women are the most amazing creatures on earth. 'They're gentle and also more intelligent than the men that I've met recently.' She then expanded on her new-found sexuality in a piece she wrote in the September issue of Harper's Bazaar. She said she hadn't dated a man in two and a half years. 'In the physical sense, I'm not attracted to men right now at all,' she wrote. O'Neal, who won an Oscar aged just 10 for her role in Paper Moon, has fought a life-long battle with heroin. She said she had experimented with women in the past, but it is only now she is drug-free that she has gone further. 'Now I'm clean and aware and alive and interested in the world, saying: "Dating women is exciting to me, and this is turning me on." 'I dated in the heterosexual world up until about four years ago, when I started thinking about dating women — just thinking about it.'
O'Neal said she was in her hair salon and saw a couple of pretty assistants. 'I said: "I want to go on a date with her!" 'I finally decided to pursue it last year,' added O'Neal. 'I went to a Super Bowl party…and I saw this hot beautiful woman in her mid-30s serving drinks. She was kind of tough and sassy. I got her number and I think she called me, or I called her — I can't remember — and we went on a date.' She said they dated for a couple of months but her friend wanted to get more serious. 'But it was too soon for me,' wrote Tatum. A rep for O'Donnell did not respond to request for comment, and previously denied that her client was dating O'Neal.
