On July 19, 2003, Melissa Joan married musician Mark Wilkerson. The preparations for the ceremony, which took place in Florence, Italy, were documented in a TV miniseries titled Tying the Knot, produced by Hart’s production company, Hartbreak Films.
Melissa Joan and Wilkerson have two sons: Mason Walter Wilkerson, who was born on January 11, 2006 weighing 9lbs; and Braydon Hart Wilkerson, born on March 12, 2008, weighing 7lbs, 3oz. Both boys were born in Los Angeles where the couple resides.
Hart and Wilkerson were featured in People’s April 7, 2008 issue, introducing Braydon to the world.
Melissa Joan Hart, famous for some show that I forget, is lamenting the fact that when her rocker husband goes on tour this week, she’s going to be all alone with the little darlings:
“I’m not sure I can handle two babies on my own, unlike my sis who is super-mom,” Hart, 32, who gave birth to son Braydon Hart Wilkerson in March, writes on her MySpace Celebrity blog.
The actress and husband Mark Wilkerson, 30, a Grammy-nominated musician, also have 2-year-old son Mason.
“We are adjusting nicely to being a family of four, although it is a tough job,” says Hart. “It’s about to get a lot tougher as Mark leaves on tour this week.”
Poor thing. I can just imagine what it is like to have a toddler and an infant at home at the same time. No, really, I can, because I did it. My husband worked 60-70 hours a week. And look, we all survived!
I find it hard to muster up a lot of sympathy for a woman who has enough dough to, oh, I don’t know…hire someone to help out?
Don’t get me wrong. I applaud celebs who want to raise their own kids without leaving them solely to the nanny, but come on. This isn’t a true single mom who has to make the decision about either finding decent childcare while she works her minimum-wage job or leaving the kids home alone because she can’t afford it, or having to make the decision between paying a babysitter or buying food for the week. This is a celeb who lives in a nicer house than most of us will ever see, has more money that most of us will ever have, and who can afford to have someone come in at least a few hours a day to help out with things.
I hate to say something negative about Melissa Joan Hart (she was Clarissa after all!), but I can’t hold back here.
Melissa wrote in her MySpace blog:
“We are adjusting nicely to being a family of four, although it is a tough job. It’s about to get a lot tougher as Mark leaves on tour this week… I’m not sure I can handle 2 babies on my own, unlike my sis who is a super-Mom.”
Whaaaat?
How many moms out there have dealt with two kids on their own while the father was away?
Sure, it might not be the easiest thing in the world, but to say that you’re not sure you can handle two kids alone? Oy.
Am I just overreacting, or does this bother you too?
