Celebrities seem to lack an understanding when it comes to the word no. Everywhere they go, they get free swag, drinks, hotel stays, and vacations. Boutiques close their doors to allow them the privacy of solo shopping and talk shows accommodate their dressing rooms with the finest champagne, wardrobes, and licorice. With this sort of royal treatment, it’s no wonder all their influence and power go to their head. If Miss America wants, Miss America gets. And these actions of taking more than they’re giving have even gone as far as taking already-owned merchandise – husbands!

While the act of hubby-snatching is not exclusive to La La Land’s elite, it’s unfortunately the most publicized. Wives and husbands worldwide are constantly caught-up in a homewrecking fiasco, only the world never ends up hearing about it. Only if you’re already the subject of tabloids will your actions in love and lust be judged and put on display. While the public ridicule is humiliating, it’s difficult to sympathize with someone who not only has it all, but is also stealing another woman’s husband!

It’s literally our worst fears brought to life when a much younger, hotter, and bendy woman targets in on our man. We can’t compete, and we hope to never have to. So when we see these celebrity moms work their charms on these Hollywood husbands, our hearts can’t help but go out to the victims.

15 Angelina Jolie

Perhaps the most infamous incident of Hollywood homewrecking was Angelina Jolie’s affair with Brad Pitt. It was one of the most publicied and scrutinized union of the twenty-first century. At the time that the Mr. & Mrs. Smith costars began to make eyes at one another, Brad was married to our favourite Friend, Jennifer Aniston. The sweetest couple to grace the covers of our bathroom tabloids had crumbled right before our eyes, and it was all due to Miss Jolie’s sexiness.

Seriously, how could Brad resist this Tinseltown hotpot? It’s been over ten years since Angelina busted up Jen’s relationship with Brad, and even though Jen has moved on, have we? Brad’s actions made every wife’s nightmare a reality: husband cheats with hotter, younger woman. Our hearts went out to Jen in every way and women worldwide was on Team Jen. Even though Brad and Angelina share biological and adopted children together and are happily married, Angelina is yet to shed this tired label.

14 Gabrielle Union

Gabrielle has fended off more than a few rumours of her sneaky and scandalous behaviour over the years. While the gossip circulates that she’s had her hands on the husbands of many Hollywood women, the most public affair that branded her with the big “H” is the one she had with basketball player, Dwyane Wade. Their relationship went public in 2008, right around the time that Dwyane and his then-current wife, Siohvaughn Funches, were announcing their split.

Today, Gabrielle denies that her and the NBA shooting guard – and current husband – were seeing each other while Wade was still married. But Siohvaughn is keeping the accusations alive by claiming that their affair caused her much emotional distress. Whether you want to believe the rumours or not, calling this step-mom a homewrecker might not be that far of a stretch. According to a letter written by an anonymous athlete’s wife, she’s been witness to a few cases of Miss Union’s unions with more than a handful of Hollywood husbands.

13 Leanne Rimes

She may not have been the first starlet anyone would have guessed to wreck the marriage of another silver screen persona, but that’s exactly what Leanne Rimes ended up doing. Not only did she crush the marriage between Real Housewife Brandi Glanville and actor Eddie Cibrian, but she also ended her own vows with her then-husband, Dean Sheremet.

Leanne and Eddie each divorced their respective spouses and went on to marry each other, making Leanne stepmom to Brandi and Eddie’s two sons, Mason and Jake. Ten years her junior, Brandi understandably found it difficult to accept her husband’s affair and new partnership with a much younger woman. Not only did she steal her husband, but snuck in to be second-mom to Brandi’s children. Not cool! This blended family may have made a few enemies, but at least they’ll have some drama/inspiration for Leanne’s next country album.

12 Elizabeth Taylor

The woman most notorious for the record number of husbands she’s called “honey”, Elizabeth is no stranger to walking down the aisle. Elizabeth Taylor may have famously said “big girls need big diamonds”, but she’s also said “I do” a few too many times, making her Hollywood’s most get-around wifey. Her most public union was when her pals, Eddie and Debbie Fisher, helped take care of Elizabeth after her late husband, Mike Todd, had died in a plane crash. But it wasn’t all innocent condolences between Elizabeth and Eddie.

She had swooped up Eddie’s interests faster than a director could say, “Action!” Due to her unheard of promiscuity at the time, Elizabeth gave Eddie exactly what he wanted, and what Debbie couldn’t hold a candle to. It was no secret that this mother of three was a fan of slipping between the sheets, which is exactly why this husband chose to stray and publicly break his vows to Carrie Fisher’s mother.

11 Sienna Miller

This UK native, model, and actress is most known for her relationships with Hollywood men, so it’s no surprise that her smooching decisions would lead her into a scandal. Former lover to Jude Law – and perhaps the fuel that started her homewrecking fire – Sienna was very publicly cheated on when Jude hit the hay with his children’s nanny. Maybe this level of hurt and humiliation caused Sienna to also make some unwise partnership choices.

While her actions never officially ended the marriage, the affair she had with Balthazar Getty seriously rocked his life with his wife, Rosetta, and his four children. She may have dug her claws into a married man, but she’s also been the victim of a broken relationship, so we can’t be too harsh on her. Since the year-long fling, Sienna is putting her high-profile relationships behind her and focusing on less shameful ventures. Miss Miller has since been in a long-term relationship with Tom Sturridge and together they share a daughter, Marlowe.

10 Tori Spelling

This 90210 alum and author is not the picture-perfect daughter that Hollywood veteran, Aaron Spelling, would have expected to have raised. This mom to five children is a self-proclaimed homewrecker who has fully admitted to bedding her now-husband and baby daddy, Dean McDermott. Back when the two first met on the set of the Lifetime movie Mind Over Murder, they say they had an instant connection that, apparently, caused Dean to lose all memory of his then-wife, Mary Jo Eustace, and resulted in Dean and Tori getting it on within 24 hours of their first introductions to one another.

Hey, when you know, you know! This romp unfortunately also caused her marriage to Charlie Shanian to shatter and both couples ended up filing for divorce. Within a month of Tori’s divorce, she married Dean, became step-mother to his son, Jack, and popped out five more children. But for Tori, what goes around comes around. Seems that Dean also cheated on Tori...with his ex-wife! Talk about family drama.

9 Evan Rachel Wood

This sweet-meets-sassy celeb is an actress that has a love for the devious and dark, and that includes her choices in both acting roles and love interests. Evan Rachel Wood isn’t shy when it comes to sharing her spiritual yet seductive persona. Choosing roles that tap into her interests, Evan often opts for a little intrigue and danger. This mom of one – and previous fiancée to one of Hollywood’s dark lords, Marilyn Manson – was once the focus of the tabloids when her love to the rocker rattled his marriage to burlesque performer, Dita Von Teese.

Their romance ran deep and was said to be very healthy and real. Even so, that doesn’t repair the shredded pages of Marilyn and Dita’s marriage licence. Evan and Marilyn claim that their relationship had no impact on the marriage, but Dita claims in the divorce that it was due to an inappropriate relationship between her hubby and another woman. Homewrecker or not, Evan’s relationship timing certainly isn’t getting her any points.

8 Claire Danes

The Homeland star may be racking up the accolades for her television drama, but we haven’t forgotten about the drama in Claire’s less-than-perfect past. This fresh-faced leading lady may be a little darling on-screen, but she’s no princess in real life. She’s a man-hopper, frequently leaving one man for another, which just so happened to result in her ending an eight-year relationship.

While on set, Claire met and connected with Billy Crudup, then proceeded to enter an affair with the man. At the time Billy was seeing Mary Louise Parker, who was seven-months pregnant at the time that Billy left her for Miss Danes! Ouch. Mary Louise was devastated, as she should have been! This is a poor choice for Claire, but an even more awful choice made by Billy. However, once Claire had her fill of Billy, she left him for Hugh Dancy, leaving him alone in the end. Together, Claire and Hugh share a son, Cyrus.

7 Madonna

Madonna has never been one to act Like a Virgin, but this 80’s princess let her rendezvous’ extend towards the Hollywood husbands. Her romances may have been considered sinful by many conservative parents, but only when she approached New York Yankee, Alex Rodriguez, did she truly enter sinner territory. When this music diva set her sights on Alex, he was married to Cynthia Scurtis at the time.

Their affair was known by the media, and also Cynthia, causing the two to file for divorce. Extramarital affairs were cited as the cause of the split during the divorce case, which resulted in one of the most expensive divorce settlements of this century. But Madonna isn’t the only woman A-Rod has snuck around with. This playboy athlete has been rumoured to be adding many notches to his belt. Mom of 6 biological and adopted children, Madonna has moved on from Alex and the affair and has since cuddled up with a few younger men herself.

6 Alicia Keys

This songstress and former mentor on The Voice may have made her name for her soulful, R&B ballads, but even her chart-topping records weren’t enough to shake the accusations of Alicia from being a homewrecker. This mother of two is the current wife of Swizz Beatz, but that union did not come without its set of consequences.

Turns out Alicia isn’t above Fallin’ for married men. Swizz was previously married to Mashonda, a fellow R&B – although less successful – artist. Alicia denies the accusations that she and Swizz were hooking up while he and Mashonda were “happily” shacked under the same roof. She stands by her claim that Swishonda were well into their separation when Alicia and Swizz began their relationship. Unfortunately, the scorned – Mashonda – believes a different story and blames Alicia for destroying her family.

Later, Alicia and Swizz were married and she became stepmom to Swizz’ son. And apparently, have even reconciled with Mashonda! She may be the sweetest homewrecker of them all.

5 Julia Roberts

Hollywood’s most A-list actress and America’s Pretty Woman, Julia Roberts, might not appear to be as wholesome as she wants her fans to believe. Between bouncing around from man to man, and releasing flick after flick, Julia’s has been getting around the celebrity circles, so to speak. Her not-so-secret dating past has included many actors, but her time with them was fleeting.

While she was filming alongside Brad Pitt in The Mexican, Julia had simpler sights in mind when it came to starting something real, and ending a Hollywood marriage. This man-snatcher knew no boundaries when it came to making sure that she and cameraman, Danny Moder, would one day walk down the aisle together. She fell in love with Danny, which then left Danny with the task of ending his marriage with makeup artist, Vera Steimberg. Julia has managed to stay put with Danny for fifteen years now and together they share and raise three children.

4 Melanie Griffith

Mother to rising star, Dakota Johnson, Melanie Griffith is known throughout Hollywood for her acting roles and for her involvement in one of the longest lasting marriages in Tinseltown history to Antonio Banderas. Sadly, the latter can no longer be said, as Melanie has recently divorced the Spaniard and fellow actor.

However, before the marriage that lasted two decades began, Melanie and Antonio fell in love while filming a movie, causing the breakdown of his marriage, as well as her own to Dakota’s father, Don Johnson. Before Antonio, Melanie had a troubled past with liquor and drugs, which may have been the cause of this spiral into ending two marriages.

For Melanie, the marriage resulted in two more children for the actress between her and and Antonio. So it all worked out in the end! But unfortunately, the same can’t be said for Antonio’s ex, Ana Leza.

3 Britney Spears

No shortage of scandal in Britney’s past, it’s no surprise that the pop princess caused some drama in someone’s marriage. This little tartlet was once the envy of every Christina and Mariah and the fixation of every young male. Britney may have not always made the best decisions when it came to men (a la her quickie marriage to Jason Alexander, but not including Justin Timberlake), yet ending a marriage over a backup-dancing douche was a new low, even for her.

Britney somehow had taken an interest in Kevin Federline who was, at the time, married to Shar Jackson, whom he shared two children with. He apparently wanted out of the marriage long before Britney became the next woman to bear his children, and won dear Britney over. Britney’s affair with K-Fed may not have been the only relationship she caused some turbulence in. After entering a tabloid-suggested relationship with choreographer Sandip Soparrkar, Britney faced anger from his girlfriend who told her to “back off”.

2 Gisele Bündchen

If we’re being honest here, who is really that surprised to know that there is a super hot supermodel on this list? If any woman has the capabilities to steal another woman’s husband, it’s literally any Victoria’s Secret model. Take your pick. Brazilian goddess and former babe of Leo DiCaprio, Gisele was rumoured to have stolen her current husband, Tom Brady, from fellow actress Bridget Moynahan. No one knows how the timeline goes, or if it overlaps anywhere, but Gisele is certainly not well-liked by Bridget, who was pregnant at the time that Tom had left her. Tom and Bridget may share a child, making Gisele the child’s stepmom, but even that won’t convince Bridget to salvage a relationship with the woman. I mean, who could blame her? Your ex-boyfriend left you to be with the world’s most beautiful woman? You’re allowed to hate her from afar.

1 Natalie Portman

One of Hollywood’s sweetest celebs and dainty actresses, Natalie Portman, may have been caught in some past homewrecking havoc. A secret seductress, sources have speculated that Natalie is known for swooping in to land any man she desires. What with those butterfly eyelashes and youthful cheeks, who could resist?

While the homewrecking rumours have never been confirmed, she’s been caught between TWO high-profile splits. Most recently, gossip spread that she ended a relationship so that she could be with her current husband and the father of her two children, Benjamin Millepied. Benjamin was talking marriage with his live-in ballerina girlfriend, Isabella, when he decided to end things between them and pursue his interest in Natalie. While Natalie and Benjamin are happily married to this day, we can’t seem to forget her other rumoured meddling between Sean Penn and Robin Wright. Could it be that she just flies under the radar, much like a Black Swan? Tsk, tsk, Natalie. We’re on to you.
