Trading Up

 

Director Robert Rodriguez left his wife of 16-years for his "Grindhouse" star Rose McGowan. The affair with Rose apparently shut down production of the movie for one-month so he could sort out his issues.

 

Robert's wife at the time, Elizabeth Avellan, is his co-producer and the mother of his 5 kids.

 

Sources say that it was the worst kept secret on the set. "When Elizabeth found out, there was an eruption of emotions - an emotional volcano."

 

A rep for the film says the hiatus had nothing to do with Robert's personal life.

 

Robert is hot as hell and Rose is a damn mess. He broke up his marriage for a relationship that won't last! She's gonna snort him out of house and home!
