Gwyneth Spends A Day With Her Kids
Tori Spelling Has No Communication With Her Mother Candy
Candy Spelling is starting a new chapter in her life, which includes writing a frank memoir called Stories From Candyland – and selling the $150 million, 56,000-square-foot mansion where she's lived since 1991.
Spelling, whose book is due out March 31, plans to move from her five-acre French Chateau-style mansion into a $47 million condo with 17,000 square feet; the same footage as her current attic.
But she tells PEOPLE that she'd never have put Spelling Manor on the market if she thought she'd reconcile with her estranged daughter Tori, her husband Dean, and their two children, Liam and Stella.
"I don't see Tori and Dean anymore," the 63-year-old grandmother tells PEOPLE. "I used to see Liam, but no longer. And I've never met Stella."
Spelling, who was married to producer Aaron Spelling for 37 years before his death in 2007, says she's not sure why Tori is angry with her. "I've tried to talk to her, but that doesn't work. She may not even know why she's angry."
When called by PEOPLE, a rep for Tori Spelling had no comment.
Despite the family's fracturing, Spelling says: "If I had any hope that I would have a relationship with my grandchildren I would never sell this house. I've fantasized for years about a wonderful playhouse on the grounds for children."
Although she spent four years planning the home before she moved in, she's selling it now because, "It's just me in this big house," explains Spelling. Still, she hasn't lost hope entirely.
She made sure there is a playroom in her new condo in case the grandkids ever do visit. "Someday my grandchildren will know who I am because of the trust funds I've set up, but I would like to be part of their lives now," says Spelling. "I would have loved to have built that playhouse for them."

Gisele Bundchen Talks About Tom Brady's Child In Vanity Fair
Marriage and step-motherhood have come naturally to Gisele Bundchen – who recently wed New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, six months after his former girlfriend, model-actress Bridget Moynahan, gave birth to Brady's child, John Edward Thomas Moynahan.
"It was definitely a surprise for both of us," the supermodel, 28, tells Leslie Bennetts for Vanity Fair's May issue.
Yet the baby's arrival in their lives, Bündchen insists, has not detracted from her bliss.
In fact, little John Edward has contributed to it. "In the beginning you're living this romantic fantasy; you're thinking, This can't be true, it's so good!" she says "And then, Whoops – wake-up call!"
The rude awakening came 2½ months after she had met Brady through a friend in late 2006, when she was instantly attracted to him thanks to his charismatic smile, she says.
With Moynahan's news, however, "[I]t was a very challenging situation," says Bündchen. "Obviously, in the beginning, it's not the ideal thing." And, obviously, doubts arose. "You question at times – 'Should I stay here? Maybe you should work this out,' " says Bündchen. "But when people break up, it's for a reason."
In the end, working with Brady to deal with the baby, "was a blessing, because otherwise I don't think I would have known what he was made of, and he wouldn't have known what I was made of," she says, noting his integrity and "the way he was a good person through all the times. I was like, You have the heart in a good place! It made me feel more in love with him; it made me realize who he was."
"Our relationship has become so much stronger, and I think I wouldn't be as certain as I am today if it weren't for that."
What makes Brady perfect for her, says Bündchen, is: "He's very close to his family. He's Catholic. His parents have been married 40 years. He's got a pure heart. That's all that matters – he's got the purest heart. I feel grateful because I have a lot of love in my life. I found the person I'm sharing my life with. I have a good man."

Kids' Choice Awards Recap From Saturday Night
While the 22nd Annual Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards had few of the same ingredients of an Oscars or Grammys telecast, Miley Cyrus made sure the tradition stayed alive.
After shouldering losses for everything else with her name attached—Selena Gomez took the slimefest's Favorite TV Actress gong and iCarly swiped Favorite TV Show out from underneath Hannah Montana—the starlet scored a win for Favorite Female Singer.
Despite having taken home the orange Blimp in the same category last year, she got surprisingly choked up.
"I really thought I was going to lose, so thank you, guys," she wept.
Those High School Musical kids—Zac Efron, Vanessa Hudgens, Ashley Tisdale and Corbin Bleu, to be precise—were considerably more cheerful. The graduating class of East High took home one of the event's highest honors, Favorite Movie, beating out the likes of Iron Man and The Dark Knight. High School Musical 3: Senior Year's prom queen, Hudgens, also took home Favorite Female Movie Star.
Sadly, the Wildcats, as well as the "Climb" singer, managed to walk away from the Pauley Pavilion on UCLA's campus completely slime-free. Many others were not so lucky...
Host Dwayne Johnson presided over an active slime volcano and, throughout the show, sought the necessary "key" star to make it erupt.
While the Jonas Brothers—who took home the Favorite Music Group Blimp, natch—forced the wet, green finale fiesta and Will Ferrell rode a slimy slip 'n' slide, the best, or at least gooiest, bits were more prank driven.
Favorite Male Singer Jesse McCartney received a good soaking from The Rock courtesy of a trick microphone.
Mr. Oscars host himself, Hugh Jackman and Sandra Bullock opened a winners' case only to receive the night's best dousing.
After a record more than 90 million votes, a winner was decided in the fierce book battle between Harry Potter and Edward Cullen.
The Twilight series took home the Favorite Book award, and Taylor Lautner—not Robert Pattinson, sorry, ladies—picked it up in Stephenie Meyer's absence.
Cameron Diaz was also on hand to award Leo DiCaprio the first-ever Big Green Help award for his environmental contributions. While the Blimp was green, neither scored a splash of goo.
Neither Rihanna nor Chris Brown, who withdrew his two nominations prior to the event, were in attendance.
Before the night came to a close, the JoBros and the Pussycat Dolls performed a pair of their hits and Johnson donned a dress and wig to look like Cyrus.
