Kate Walsh

Kate Walsh's estranged husband, Alex Young, has filed a lawsuit accusing the company that managed both his and the Private Practice actress' finances of "unlawful and unethical conduct" by refusing to hand over documents.

Alex Young, who filed for divorce December 9 after 14 months of marriage, has requested information pertaining to the couple's house and other assets.

Walsh's rep said the breakup was amicable at the time, but Young's camp says that accounting house London & Co. "was very slow to respond and it would not answer certain questions" the Fox exec had about their "very valuable house."

The 20th Century Fox studio executive also wants to know about the value of some of the furnishings, artwork and other improvements they both paid for.

Per his filing, Alex Young moved out when he decided to go ahead with the divorce, leaving everything in the house in Kate Walsh's possession.

But when he tried to access all of their purchase and tax records from the accountants, London & Co. balked, he says, and the firm has turned over a paltry amount of information overall, despite being served with a deposition subpoena.

The accounting firm was engaged in a clear "conflict of interest," contends Young, who alleges that it behaved in a manner that benefited one client, Kate Walsh, while opting to drop him as a client when the couple split up.

Here's a Grey's Anatomy spoiler we didn't see coming.

According to court papers, movie exec Alex Young, 37, has petitioned for a divorce, citing irreconcilable differences with actress Kate Walsh, as of Nov. 22.

"The couple remain on friendly terms and sincerely hope the media will respect their privacy during this difficult time," they said in a statement Thursday.

Walsh, who went on to star in the mediocre spinoff Private Practice after making it big on Grey's Anatomy, wed Young – a production co-president at 20th Century Fox – on September 1, 2007, in the town of Ojai, just north of Los Angeles.

In October 2007, Kate Walsh talked about the pair's whirlwind relationship, telling Ellen DeGeneres, "There was this kind of funny moment, after we were like we're married and all of the hoopla was over and we were like, 'What do we do now?'"

Guess she ran out of answers to that question sooner than expected.

Some apparently awesome photographer named Timothy White has taken some sexy celebrity photos for his new book, entitled Hollywood Pinup.

Among those featured is the beautiful Kate Walsh, 40, who used to star on Grey's Anatomy before moving on to mediocre spin-off Private Practice.

Yowza. We wouldn't mind having to Practice some very Private things with Kate Walsh if you know what we mean. We're talking about ... forget it.

Enjoy the photo:

HOLLYWOOD PINUP: A sexy Kate Walsh certainly looks the part of the new book she's in. How that guy talked her into this, we have no clue. But awesome work.

Kate Walsh used to shine on Grey's Anatomy (2005-2007).

Her efforts are currently wasted on Private Practice.

Nevertheless, she is one of our favorite actresses and The Hollywood Gossip would like to wish a happy birthday to Kate Walsh, who turns 41 (!) today. She would totally be a MILF if she actually had kids, but she's only newly married!

Here's a little Kate Walsh photo tribute. Click to enlarge ...

Kate Walsh starred on ABC Grey's Anatomy, which returns for its fifth season tonight, then went on to star on Private Practice, its lackluster spin-off.

Her recent hairstyle shift may have been another regression.

The gorgeous redhead chopped a few inches off her awesome hair as she opted for a sleek, shoulder-length bob for this past week's Emmy Awards ...

Which Kate Walsh hairstyle is best?

While Britney Spears spent the holiday weekend shopping, Kate Walsh (her tan bikini blending nicely with the sand) strolled down a Hawaiian shore with her new husband, 20th Century Fox movie executive Alex Young.

The newlyweds, who married Labor Day, spent Thanksgiving vacationing on the beaches of Maui, frolicking in the surf and walking the coast at sunset.

Kate Walsh and Alex Young: Very much in love.

At 40, the former Grey's Anatomy and current Private Practice star looks so good, she'd be prime MILF material... that is, if she had kids. Despite rumors that she is pregnant, Walsh has said that at least for now, her baby is her TV series.

THE HOLLYWOOD GOSSIP NOTE: This is as close as you're ever gonna get to Kate Walsh nude. As in the flesh-colored tone of her bikini. That is all.

This just in: Kate Walsh is pregnant (with a TV show)!

When Extra asked the recently married 40-year-old actress the inevitable "when are you having a baby" question, Kate Walsh replied:

"Right now, my baby is Private Practice... she is beautiful, strong, and growing every week," referring to her hit Grey's Anatomy spin-off series.

We might take issue with the first two parts of that description, but it's nice that Walsh is having a good time and feeling confident in her new show.

Extra then asked Kate Walsh if she was indeed pregnant, to which she joked: "I'm pregnant with triplets now and I feel really good!"

Kate Walsh married Alex Young, 35, a 20th Century Fox production executive, in September in Ojai, California. Walsh sat down with Extra on the Private Practice set and, for the record, denied being pregnant, explaining:

"Both of us are pretty much working constantly and seeing each other when we can... that's him, the pretty blond guy over there!"

So, looks like no babies on the way just yet for this striking former member of the Grey's Anatomy cast. But we're still big fans of Kate and wish her the best.

Illinois Senator Barack Obama may be criss-crossing the country campaigning for president, but he's not completely out of the pop culture loop.

When he spotted Kate Walsh at a fund raising event in Hancock Park, Calif., October 20, he couldn't help but make his way over to the actress to talk a little about her new ABC hit series, Private Practice.

"So great to see you!" Barack Obama said. "How's the new show?"

"It's going really well," replied Kate Walsh, who was there with her husband of nearly two months, film producer Alex Young.

So what's Barack Obama's prognosis on Private Practice?

"I'm always out campaigning ... I haven't been able to watch it so I can't give you a review," he admitted, "but I'm sure it's great."

Ah, your classic non-answer answer. Spoken like a true politician. At least he's willing to go out on a limb and say he doesn't like Paris Hilton.

Barack Obama will have plenty of opportunities to check out the series: It was recently renewed for a full season. Hopefully he has TiVo.

In a world dominated by certain celebrities getting unnecessary plastic surgery and wearing no pants to clubs, Kate Walsh is a breath of fresh air.

The former member of the Grey's Anatomy cast, who now stars on Private Practice, turned 40 on Saturday and says she had no angst about the milestone.

"Probably, honestly, I would have cared more if I were still single," the star tells Marie Claire.

"But I've also been working through all the big things that you grapple with as a female. I feel I'm in such a place of peace in my life that 40 feels like a great marker of a great year."

Kate Walsh says she had let the idea of marriage go - until she met Alex Young, 36, a co-president of film production at 20th Century Fox.

"I met him, and I knew unequivocally," she says. "Is that strange? I used to want to hit people who said, 'You know when you know' about someone. It made me want to throw up. But I'm the annoying one now."

Kate Walsh and Alex Young moved in together just a month later, got engaged in May, and made it official when they got married Labor Day weekend.

BIRTHDAY GIRL: Kate Walsh was all smiles Saturday, her big 4-0.

The beautiful Private Practice star describes her new husband as "super intelligent, super smart, very handsome" and "a true gentleman."

"It's so easy to be cynical, but it's not how he lives," she says. "I've always known I've needed someone who lived from his heart."

Assuming you've stopped laughing after the series premiere of Reaper - and you're welcome for that suggestion, by the way - take a look at the television match-up on tap for tonight:

In one corner, we have Michelle Ryan and Bionic Woman. A remake of a hit series from the 1970s, this action-packed drama stars the British actress as a newly robotic fighting machine. And if that weren't enough to entice viewers, there's a special guest star appearing for few episodes:

Isaiah Washington.

We wonder which sexual preference he'll insult this time.

Opposing Bionic Woman at 9 p.m. tonight (it's a good thing they make DVRs now, huh?) is Private Practice, the Grey's Anatomy spin-off starring Kate Walsh.

It looks to be a bit more comedic than its predecessor, but don't worry, ladies, there' still a round of McHotties to keep you interested. Taye Diggs and Tim Daly are pieces of eye candy that are just about as tasty as they come.

You can't see Michelle Ryan nude or Kate Walsh nude tonight. But you can see these actresses star in their hit new shows.
