Despite the turmoil of her pending divorce, Private Practice star Kate Walsh smiled as she took her dad to the Senior Citizen Center in Hollywood on Saturday.
Private Practice returns at 10 p.m. Thursday - in its new time slot after parent show Grey's Anatomy - with an all-new episode entitled "Contamination."
Looks like Kate Walsh's short-lived marriage may have been falling apart even sooner than thought - by a couple of days, anyway.
A little less than two weeks after her husband filed for divorce, the Private Practice cast member submitted her own paperwork asking for a permanent split from 20th Century Fox movie executive Alex Young.
Both parties cite irreconcilable differences as the reason their 15-month union ended so soon, but while Young's filing listed their date of separation as November 22, Walsh's counter-filing has the break coming five days earlier.
Not in question is the fact that the duo tied the knot September 1, 2007, in front of more 100 guests and some of Walsh's former Grey's Anatomy co-stars.
There has been speculation that David Sutcliffe, who plays SWAT team officer Kevin Nelson on Private Practice, may have played some sort of role (however indirect) in the couple's split, but that's all it is - speculation.
As they held each other at Katherine Heigl's birthday party, no one would have thought anything was wrong between Kate Walsh and her husband of 14 months.
"They were dancing up a storm, having a really good time together," a Star magazine source says of Kate Walsh and Alex Young, a movie studio executive.
"There were no signs that there was any trouble in paradise."
Yet just a week after Katherine's November 15 bash at her mother's L.A. house, Kate and hubby Alex Young called it quits, according to divorce papers.
So what went wrong in such a short time between the Private Practice cast member and her husband? Friends say one of the main reasons her marriage has gone south has been Kate's growing closeness with David Sutcliffe.
That's the divorced hunk who plays her love interest on Private Practice. As Kate's Dr. Addison Montgomery and David's character, Kevin Nelson, have grown closer since he turned up at Oceanside Wellness, so have the actors.
"Kate really likes David, and knowing that didn't help Alex's fragile ego," a friend of the actress says. "Kate and David had a real connection playing lovers on the show, and she didn't seem to have that with her own husband."
