Nicollette Sheridan made girls half her age green with envy when she hit the beach for an afternoon of sun.

The Desperate Housewives star frolicked in the surf , sporting a white bikini that left little to the imagination – and showcased her toned figure, as she spent the day with her new love interest.

The actress has reportedly been seeing wealthy businessman Steve Pate since April this year.

And judging by the look of things, their relationship appears to be going from strength to strength.

The cosy couple looked the picture of happiness and couldn’t keep their hands off each other as they shared a sun lounger.
The British-born actress surely has more time on her hands now after filming final scenes of the show.

The Desperate Housewives femme fatale met a grisly end by crashing her car into a telephone pole as she fled from her murderous husband.

Fans watched in horror as she then stepped from the vehicle into a puddle – and was electrocuted by a falling overhead wire.
Her spokeswoman says she’s looking forward to trying some new roles.

Before Desperate Housewives, Sheridan was best known for playing Paige Matheson in Eighties soap opera Knots Landing.
After joining Desperate Housewives in 2004, Sheridan was nominated for a Golden Globe in 2005 for her portrayal of Edie.
Prior to her engagement to Michael Bolton, Sheridan was married to actor Harry Hamlin for two years in the early Eighties.

On who did her in: “Somebody up there really wanted her dead. I think whoever Edie represented in [Housewives creator] Marc’s life was somebody he didn’t like. And he had a very difficult time distinguishing between fact and fiction.”

On the show losing its magic: “When the show started it was such a different beast. It was exciting and dangerous and funny and edgy and bizarre. It started feeling a little complacent, and that was very frustrating.”

On learning of Edie’s demise: “I said, ‘OK, sayonara. It’s been a great ride. Thank you.”

So what does Marc Cherry have to say about letting his ego making a stupid decision for the show?

On choosing to cut Edie: “Edie’s already slept with most of the guys on the street and has caused about as many problems as she could.”

That is so not true, now that Gale Harold is back she could totally sleep with him! (I would!) Seriously Marc Cherry needs to get over himself because Nicollette is right, the show hasn’t been good since the beginning.
And you know way to go Nicollette Sheridan for telling it like it is and not BSing what happened! I can’t wait to see what else she says in the interview in the new TV Guide Magazine that is on stands this Thursday!

Marc Cherry is really killing off Nicolette Sheridan on Desperate Housewives according to the National Enquirer.

When the gorgeous star leaves the show in a very special April episode, her character - devious real estate agent Edie Britt - will survive a harrowing car crash only to get zapped from a death-dealing surge from a live wire moments later, divulge sources.

“It will be one of the most bizarre character deaths in TV history,” revealed a show insider.

Ironically, the demanding 45-year-old actress had been targeted for “capital punishment” by the show’s producer for some time, disclosed the insider. “She’s always clashed with series creator-executive producer Marc Cherry. “For some time, Marc and the writers have been planning a dramatic demise befitting Nicollette,” the insider confided.

Dang that really sounds like Marc Cherry hates her, he really hates her.

For Nicollette - if you are going to die on a show, that is a good way to go! Leave them talking and remembering you!!!

Desperate Housewives’ creator Marc Cherry opened up to TV Guide Magazine why he wrote off Nicollette Sheridan’s Edie Britt.

“Nicollette Sheridan has immortalized Edie Britt from the first moment she stepped foot on Wisteria Lane as the deliciously seductive and strong neighbor. The creative decision to place this character in a perilous storyline was driven by the need to continue to keep the drama fresh. It has been our great pleasure to work with Nicollette – we are all going to miss her very much.”

Does anyone believe him that is really why they are letting her go? Even though they haven’t been using her like she be used this season, there are a few other Housewives I would like to see go before her.

IT’S getting messy between “Desperate Housewives” star Nicollette Sheridan and her former fiance, pop crooner Michael Bolton.

In May, the lovebirds bought a mansion in LA’s exclusive Hidden Hills area from Melissa Etheridge and her wife Tammy Lynn Michaels for $4.4 million - down from the asking price of $4.9 million.

Bolton, madly in love, left his East Coast home and moved in with his British-born sweetheart. On Aug. 24, he finally put his huge, 9,000 square foot Westport, Conn., home, known as Della Acqua, up for sale for a whopping $11 million.

Sadly for Bolton, just two days later, Sheridan “kicked him out,” our source said.

And now, “he’s basically homeless - and stuck with two houses. He and Nicollette split the Hidden Hills house, but she wants to stay there and not have him anywhere near it. She also doesn’t particularly want to pay him [for] his half and thinks he should just give [the house] to her.

“Michael’s kind of screwed,” our source continued. “He pulled up his longtime roots in Connecticut to live with her, and now she booted him. He’s got nowhere to go.”

To make matters worse, Sheridan “has a new boyfriend,” we’re told. But her pals said, “It is not David Spade - they are just friends. He’s not her type.” Of course, we’ve heard that before.

Sheridan and Bolton got engaged in March 2006 after dating just a few months. However, they knew each other for over a decade before that, and even dated for several years in the early ’90s.

Blond bombshell Sheridan broke up with an earlier fiance, fitness trainer Nicklas Soderblom, in 2005. Reps for Sheridan and Bolton didn’t return our calls.

Nicollette Sheridan looked pretty in red, but a trip on the red carpet almost left her red all over. Dang those handlers for catching her, I always love a good fall in autumn!

Nicolette Sheridan is still pretty, but without makeup she is just average and boring. BTW is it just me or does she have the chest of a man?

Nicollette Sheridan and Michael Bolton have called off their engagement, her rep tells Usmagazine.com.

The two have been engaged since March 2006.

“We haven’t decided where, and as soon as we make that decision it will happen very quickly,” Sheridan told the U.K.’s Mail on Sunday’s YOU magazine in December 2007.

She added, “I would like a baby,” though she was hesitant to say if they were trying.

“Michael is a wonderful human being. He has brought me a profound love and support. He is an amazing sounding board for me,” she went on. “I am the happiest now I’ve ever been in my life, feeling more grounded than I ever have.”

“For me there’s only been one person, and that’s Michael,” she added.

The two even collaborated musically, with Sheridan singing vocals on Bolton’s tune “The Second Time Around.”

The couple, who dated for five years beginning in 1992, rekindled their romance after Sheridan’s split from fiancé Nicklas Soderblom in 2005.

“Nicollette and I are very serious about each other,” Bolton told New York’s Daily News around the time of their engagement. “I am very committed. It is a very special time in my life. I have a good feeling about the future.”

She was previously married to L.A. Law actor Harry Hamlin; they separated the following year.

Bolton has three daughters from a previous 15-year marriage to Maureen McGuire. They divorced in 1990.
