SOME BAD NEWS for all you Tattlers who have fantasized about hooking up with salsa singing sensation Marc Anthony since news of his marital separation three months ago.
Say bye-bye to those dreams.
Anthony and wifey, former Miss Universe Dayanara Torres Delgado, are a couple once again, the New York Daily News reported. But that's not all.
The photogenic pair will renew their vows-slash-love-for-one-another in a wedding of epic porportions in a San Juan, Puerto Rico, cathedral in December, the New York paper reported.
Hmmmm, wonder if supposed former flame J.Lo will be invited? Doubt it.
The first time down the aisle for the Anthonys was a civil ceremony - Vegas style - with no parents in attendance, the paper said.
"They've always wanted a formal, fairy-tale wedding," says a source. "Marc is planning every detail."
Man and wedding details don't go, in Tattle's opinion, but we digress.
According to the New York Daily News, Dayanara, 26, moved out last summer with the couple's 16-month-old son, Cristian, because, friends said, she felt Anthony placed career above family.
Now he's changed his tune, the paper says, because he wants to keep the marriage intact. Anthony, whose last CD was "Mended," now takes his wife and son with him when he's out promoting.
Also, Dude's actions are speaking louder than his words. He had been in talks to play salsa legend Hector Lavoe in a movie co-starring J. Lo. Now, the paper says, La Lopez may need to go to back to her wish list.
That's it!
Seven is the magic number for boy wizard Harry Potter. His creator, British author J.K. Rowling, shan't write an eighth episode of the popular series, her London agent said yesterday.
There had been speculation that Rowling - who hasn't stopped hearing the ka-chings that Pottermania has wrought since the book hit it big in the late '90s - would write more than the original seven books in the series.
"There is no truth in the rumors," Neil Blair, of Christopher Little literary agents, told Reuters.
Quake City good luck?
After the Saturday-night Eagles' team meeting at the Airport Marriott, the Birds were serenaded by the Quaker City String Band playing the Eagles fight song.
The serenade was serendipitous.
About a half-dozen, fully suited band members had played a hotel wedding that night. They were spotted by team security chief Butch Buchanico, who roped them into the unscheduled appearance, reports Stu Bykofsky.
Quarterback Donovan McNabb and tackle Corey Simon got up to dance, but it was NOT the Mummers' Strut. "It looked like tapdancing," said an observer.
(Butch: Teach these guys to cakewalk.)

Looks like hometown native, Will Smith, has himself a cameo appearance in the Philly-based production of "Jersey Girl," the rapper/actor's publicist confirmed to Tattle yesterday. "Yes, he's going to do it, but they haven't done it yet," says his rep Stan Rosenfield, of the Ben Affleck-J.Lo flick.
Maybe Will is trying to curry favor with "JG" co-star J.Lo, who he'd like to star in a remake of "A Star Is Born," currently in development. Or perhaps it's just Will helping out a friend, Lopez, whose manager Benny Medina was a co-producer on "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air." Or, uh, we ran out of options.
NBC has cancelled it's girly
drama "Providence" after five seasons, the network announced yesterday. It's convenient timing for both the show's star Melina Kanakaredes and NBC, sources say. Ratings were slipping this season and the actress, according to an NBC spokesman, is pregnant. The award-winning drama series will end with a two-hour finale on Dec. 20. Get out your Kleenex now, Tattlers!
