Sarah Michelle Geller and Freddie Prinze Jr. have been together for 27 years and married for 22 years. They have two children, Charlotte, 15, and Rocky, 12. Sarah and Freddie are a low-key couple and hands-on parents. As we talked about the other day, summertime?s here, and that introduces a whole new set of challenges for parents. Sarah and Freddie are no different! Both of their kids have a lot going on this summer. Thanks to all of Charlotte and Rocky?s many activities and social engagements, the Prinze parents are currently feeling like they are in their Chauffeur Era.
Freddie Prinze Jr. and Sarah Michelle Gellar know exactly what their two kids are doing this summer, and it?s a ?tough battle.? The couple, who married in 2002, share a daughter, Charlotte, 15, and a son, Rocky, 12. Both kids have hectic social schedules, particularly in the summer when school isn?t there to take up a portion of the day.
?You get a little unbalanced because a lot of kids? friends are on vacation, or they go to camp at someplace else, or theyre busy with camp locally, so you are more present,? he tells PEOPLE of summer parenting. ?Theyre not running away from you as much. Like, ?Dad, can you take me here? Can you take me there? Can I see this guy? Can I see that girl?? We try to keep our kids pretty active. Youre definitely more necessary, and you might feel like a chauffeur, and thats a normal feeling for a parent to go through, but youre definitely more necessary in the summer.?
The key to it all, Prinze, 49, says, is patience, which he says is his wife?s parenting superpower.
?The practicing of patience in the face of teenage power is a tough battle. Its like All Might versus whatever horrible villain he was facing in My Hero Academia, that level of difficulty,? Prinze says, referring to the popular anime series. ?Patience, I think, is the ultimate power, and if you dont have it, its a muscle you have to work out. So, definitely put the time in because it will help you win all the arguments.?
While Gellar, 48, is a natural at patience, it wasn?t something the I Know What You Did Last Summer actor mastered early on.
?I had to learn it more than I was born with it. Sarah was better with it initially,? he acknowledges. ?Patience was something I learned and got better at over time, like anything else.?
One thing the Scooby-Doo star has always been good at, though, is cooking. As the chef of the house (who even has his own cookbook), he finds himself often cooking painstaking high-end meals for his kids.
?They have a lot of different requests, man. French onion soup is a big one. We make that from scratch,? he tells PEOPLE. ?I got a creamless tomato soup that my mom taught me how to make back in the day that they really like, but these are all things that take a long ass time to cook. So, all their favorite stuff takes hours to make properly. They like when I make New Mexico green chili chicken enchiladas. Im like, ?Yo, thats six hours over the stove. Are you kidding me right now?? But thats what they like, so thats what they get.?
He admits that the children do enjoy a simple grilled cheese sandwich, but adds that they prefer to pair it ?with the soup that takes me an hour.?
[From People]
Charlotte is 15 years old, which means she is almost old enough to get her driver?s license. It?s totally a rite of passage for parents to start to feel the toll of driving their kids everywhere in the year or so before their eldest can drive, right? I bet Sarah and Freddie are starting to feel that itch. My parents were very overprotective, and even they got to a point where they couldn?t wait for me to be able to drive myself to my various activities. My kids are still close enough in age that they are doing camps and meeting up with friends in the same locations. That will all change next summer, but I am enjoying how uncomplicated their activities schedules are this year.
Also, I somehow missed that Freddie is a master chef with his own cookbook! It?s pretty endearing that he?s so into cooking that he?s willing to spend that much time cooking for his family. I don?t love cooking, but I also don?t mind doing it. (Anything is tolerable if you can do it while listening to a good podcast!) My food love language is bread and cheese, so I would totally give his French onion soup and grilled cheese recipes a shot.

| | A Buffy the Vampire Slayer reboot starring Sarah Michelle Gellar is in talks with Hulu | | Added 155 days ago | Source: CeleBitchy |

Today in ?OMG you guys? news, there?s a Buffy the Vampire Slayer reboot in the works?and it?s probably going to star Sarah Michelle Gellar. Right now, the reboot is still in the early pre-production stage, but a pilot is being written for Hulu by Poker Face showrunners Nora and Lilla Zuckerman, with Chlo Zhao directing the pilot, which Hulu is likely to order. After years of saying, thanks but no thanks to the idea of a potential reboot, SMG changed her mind after guest starring on an episode of Dexter: Original Sin. Thankfully, Joss Whedon has no involvement in the reboot.
More than two decades after Buffy the Vampire Slayer ended its seven-season run, the beloved supernatural drama is eyeing a revival with a new chapter in the franchise. A followup series is nearing a pilot order from Hulu, with Sarah Michelle Gellar expected to star, reprising her signature role as Buffy Summers, sources said. Oscar winner Chlo Zhao, a self-professed lifelong Buffy fan, is set to direct the pilot, written by Nora and Lilla Zuckerman (Poker Face).
The reboot hails from Buffy the Vampire Slayer studio 20th Television and Disney sibling Searchlight TV where Zhao has been under a first-look deal. Beyond the pilot order, I hear the reboot is starting a writers room soon, a sign that Hulu and the studios have high expectations for the project going to series. It is unclear yet whether other original Buffy cast members would return; that is considered likely.
Described as the next chapter in the Buffyverse, the new incarnation is executive produced by Gellar, Zhao, Nora and Lilla Zuckerman as well as the original series? executive producers Gail Berman of the Jackal Group and Fran Kuzui & Kaz Kuzui via Suite B. Also executive producing the pilot is Dolly Parton whose company Sandollar was producer on the original.
Buffy creator Joss Whedon, who also wrote the 1992 movie the series was based on, has no involvement in the reboot. He has not worked in Hollywood in any official capacity since facing a slew of misconduct allegations in 2021.
If the Hulu pilot goes to series, it would be the third in the franchise, following mothership Buffy the Vampire Slayer, which aired on the WB for five seasons from 1997-2001 before dramatically moving to UPN for two more, and spinoff Angel, which ran on the WB for five seasons (1999-2004).
Berman, Fran Kazui and Kaz Kazui previously teamed up with 20th TV in 2018 for a potential Buffy The Vampire Slayer reboot written by Midnight, Texas creator Monica Owusu-Breen, on which Whedon was an executive producer. That project, whose lead was envisioned as a Black woman, didn?t move forward. Still, fans of the show have continued to lobby for a revival, their hopes fueled by a couple of high profile cast reunions.
Parton indicated a year ago that a Buffy return was still in the works, saying in an interview that ?They?re still working on that. They?re thinking about bringing it back and revamping it.?
Gellar, who had been opposed to revisiting Buffy as recently as 2023, expressed openness to the idea in a December interview promoting her latest series, Dexter prequel series Original Sin, on which she is a special guest star.
?It?s funny, I always used to say no, because it?s in its bubble and it?s so perfect,? she said. ?But watching Sex and the City and seeing Dexter, and realizing there are ways to do it, definitely does get your mind thinking, ?Well, maybe.??
As to whether a potential Buffy revisit has to be a prequel, she said, ?No, it could be anything. It?s a universe. And it makes you realize that in this world, we need those heroes, I think, more so than ever.?
According to sources, negotiations with Gellar for the Buffy reboot had started when she made the comments. Those negotiations are now in their final stages.
[From Deadline]
So, thoughts on a Buffy reboot? I?m undecided. On the one hand, how do you say no to more Buffy? But, on the other hand, do we really need it? Reboots can be so hit or miss, that I?d be afraid that it would take the X-Files route vs. the Karate Kid (Cobra Kai) route. Sarah Michelle is right that the OG series is in its own perfect little bubble, so why mess with it? That said, I am a big fan of Zhao and the Zuckerman sisters? work, which puts me back into the more optimistic category. I don?t know! I am very glad, however, that Whedon won?t be involved in any capacity because f-ck that guy. I bet his absence is also a big part as to why Sarah Michelle agreed to do it.
Off the top of my head, these are the franchise reboots that are in the works: The Office, Practical Magic, The Princess Diaries, Suits, and The X-Files again. And thats not even counting the reboots that have already begun airing. Oh boy, I wonder what we?ll revisit next.

| | Sarah Michelle Gellar compares social media usage by kids to getting a face tattoo | | Added 1010 days ago | Source: CeleBitchy |

Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze, Jr. have two kids, Charlotte, 13 and Rocky, 10. For the most part, they?ve kept the kids out of the spotlight, choosing to speak about their parenting instead. Both Freddie and Sarah have spoken about the fact that they consider themselves to be stricter parents than most. They really target the kids? phones when it comes to rules, like limiting time and not allowing phones at the table. Sarah recently told Yahoo?s So Mini Ways parenting series that she also restricts the kids on social media and doesn?t allow them to have their own accounts, primarily because once it?s on social media, it?s out there forever. Sarah likened posting online to getting a face tattoo, saying what her kids want now, they?ll regret later.
As a mom of two children, Sarah Michelle Gellar runs a tight ship.
The Do Revenge star, 45, says she and husband Freddie Prinze Jr. dont allow their children, 13-year-old Charlotte and 10-year-old Rocky, to have their own social media accounts.
Our rules are probably stricter than most. Our kids dont have social media, Gellar tells Yahoo Lifes So Mini Ways. Theyre allowed to look sometimes when its our phones. Sometimes, our kids will be like you guys are the strictest household! But I say, yes, but everyone still wants to come here!'
To emphasize the permanence of whats posted on social media, Gellar told her kids that its the equivalent of getting a Paw Patrol tattoo on your face at age 5.
Because at that age, there?s nothing better than Paw Patrol. And now youre 10 and [13], and you still have these tattoos on your face and its not even who you are anymore, explains Gellar, who rose to stardom on All My Children and Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Thats a very hard concept for young kids to grasp.
Still, she has no qualms about enforcing the rules with her busy family.
I believe kids need to know what their limitations are, and they actually thrive in that environment. We?re not mean, were not unnecessarily strict, but we have rules, the actress says. And the same way I abide by my code of rules, I expect the same from our children.
[From Yahoo]
Sarah and Freddie?s sense that they?re strict is likely relative to raising kids in Hollywood. Social media is used differently in their circle. Many people, including Sarah and Freddie, use it as a part of the livelihood. So they?re more liberal when it comes to their kids because it?s so prevalent in the home already. In that environment, I?m sure Sarah looks like the strict mom not letting her kid have a TikTok. By contrast, their rules are pretty normal for my kids and their friends, and I?m not considered strict. But everyone follows my rules when they are in my home, just like my kids follows their friends? parents? rules in their homes. But that?s suburbia, not moneyed Hollywood.
I like Sarah?s face tattoo analogy, actually, because of the reasons she cites. And those are the kinds of calls parents need to make for kids before they get free reign of unlimited content. Because a child grows and matures so much in those years. And Sarah and Freddie aren?t isolating their kids from their Hollywood world, just introducing it slowly. Sarah recently brought Charlotte to her Do Revenge premiere, which was incredibly rare to see a Prinze child on the Red Carpet. Charlotte looked adorable in a hot Pink double-breasted suit and tennis shoes, too. So maybe Sarah and Freddie are Hollywood Strict, but they seem to have it figured out for their family.
Side-note: this clip of Sarah getting emotional watching Selma Blair compete on Dancing With the Stars will also make you emotional. *sniff*

I think many of us thought we?d ?beaten? Covid. We did everything by the book, took every precaution and respected all the mandates. When the vaccines and boosters rolled out, we breathed a sigh of (healthy) breath that we?d been spared from that frightening + sign. And then that d*ck omicron showed up and was all, ?Who?s you Daddy?? It seems Omi can get to anyone, like Dr. Fauci, and now Buffy. Sarah Michelle Gellar posted that she, too, caught Covid after successfully avoiding it for two and a half years. And it hasn?t been fun, either. Sarah is vaxxed and boosted, which has kept her out of the hospital, but Omi still kicked her butt.

The latest celebrity to give in to quarantine boredom and mess with their hair is Sarah Michelle Gellar. Fortunately Sarah?s hair attack did not involve a bottle of Schnapps and some clippers, but rather a bottle of Pink dye. Claiming this was her latest attempt to find a way to embarrass her children during lockdown, SMG posted this quick video to show off her new rosy locks:

I?m a fan of magazines asking celebrities to rattle off a number of trivial facts about themselves. I like Vogue?s 73 Questions, especially because you get to see their house as well, but their answers are so rehearsed. Us runs a similar bit, 25 Things You Don?t Know About, and the latest is Sarah Michelle Gellar. This is cool because 1) I love Sarah and 2) she?s pretty lowkey in her personal life so I feel like she?s ?opening up? to us by sharing this information. However, I also learned several things about her I had no idea, like that she taught herself to juggle and she?s a fellow Soapdish fan.
1. I learned how to juggle while working on set because I was bored.
2. Getting six hours of sleep in a row is what excites me most.
3. I binge The Bachelor. It?s a little boring this season. Sorry, Peter [Weber], you seem very nice. I?m sure if there were windmills it?d be much more exciting.
4. I cry every day ? I?m a parent!
5. My kids [Charlotte, 10, and Rocky, 7, with husband Freddie Prinze Jr.] are the most influential people in my life. I love to see the world through their eyes, and [hear] the questions they ask.
6. My go-to dish is anything with kale. My kids are obsessed. I could probably put ants on kale and they?d be like, ?This is the best.?
7. My daughter?s playing volleyball, so I took a lesson with her. I?m actually pretty good. It hurts though. Take your rings off!
8. My first job was a commercial for Burger King.
9. The biggest misconception about me is that I?ve died twice.
10. My two go-to movies to watch on airplanes are Sixteen Candles and Soapdish.
11. I?d describe myself as empathetic and kind.
12. My biggest pet peeve is grammar [misuse] and when people say ?so fun? or ?anyways? ? to me, that?s like nails on a chalkboard.
13. I can?t go to sleep with makeup on my face.
14. I wish I could play the piano.
15. My first car was a green Chrysler LeBaron convertible. I was taught you never get a car till the second season of a show. When we got the back order on the second season [of Buffy], I got rid of the car.
16. My biggest fear: anything [bad] happening to my kids.
17. [I think it?s weird] when you?re in the bathroom and people shove toilet paper underneath the stall and ask you to sign it.
18. If I weren?t an actress, I?d be Diane Sawyer or Robin Roberts. There are so many people I want to interview.
19. I love London.
20. John Kennedy Jr. was my celebrity crush. Wait, am I supposed to say Freddie?
21. The song I?m singing in the shower is whatever Broadway musical my daughter?s left in my head.
22. I would never jump out of an airplane.
23. I love so many books.
24. My favorite lyric [from the song ?No Contest,? from Chess]: ?You taught me, baby/How the few who win acquire/What their hearts desire/It ain?t practice, it ain?t skill/They?ll help, but not as much as wanting will.? I think if you give up your real passion, all the talent in the world isn?t going to push you that extra mile.
25. I try really hard to get inspired by everyone around me. Whether it?s a business associate, another mom, my daughter ? I think there?s so much to learn when you support other women.
[From Us]
I appreciate what she said about how important her family is to her and how scary it would be if anything happened to her kids, but she?s a spouse and mother, we kind of expect that. I prefer the facts like how she taught herself juggling to combat boredom and took up volleyball later in life. She should take piano lessons; she could check that box AND have a new skill for her CV. As a Buffy fan (thanks to my Celebitches insisting I watch it), ha! to people thinking she?s died twice. I love that Sarah never shies away from her Buffy days. I get that actors want to be known for all their work, but it makes me sad to hear celebrities say the thing that resonates the most with us, the fans, makes them sick.
However, the one area in which Sarah and I are most alike is in bed. No, you smutty smuttersons! I mean sleep. I can?t sleep with any makeup on my face. I convince myself I can feel it and it?ll bug me until I wash it off. But truly, if I got six hours of sleep in a row, I would call those close to me like it was a birth announcement. I wonder if Sarah has trouble sleeping or if she?s too busy to sleep in. She has her baking business, Foodstirs, and now she?s partnering with Cascade for its Do It Every Night Campaign

One of the quietest and most interesting marriages in Hollywood is the marriage of Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze Jr. They?ve known each other since 1996. They started dating in 1997/98-ish. They got married in 2002. They have two children, Charlotte and Rocky. We rarely hear any gossip about their marriage or their kids. They keep their sh-t on lockdown, but even that?s done in a lowkey way they?re not making a performance out of how secretive they are, they just don?t fking talk about it. And it?s remarkable that their relationship has lasted 20-plus years IN HOLLYWOOD, the land of the three-month marriage. Anyway, with all that being said, Freddie Prinze Jr. is talking about his marriage and their home life. He chatted with Us Weekly recently. Some highlights:
On the key to a happy marriage: ?There?s no keys. There?s no rules. There?s nothing like that. I don?t believe in false expectation. I just believe in knowing who you are when you start a relationship. And if you don?t, then that relationship probably isn?t going to work.?
They?re private people: ?For Sarah and I, we?re very private people. We try to make each other laugh, and we both kind of knew who we were. Hollywood?s a crazy business ?cause there?s very few locals here. ? And we can pick you out of a crowd. It?s like a lion seeing the weak gazelle. So, when you come out here, and you don?t know who you are, this business will define you and it will put its fingerprints all over you. It wants to do that. It needs to do that. And if you do know who you are, then you can kind of control your own destiny much more easily. The same rule applies in a relationship. If you don?t know who you are when you get in that relationship, odds are the other person is going to have a big hand in defining what kind of person you?re going to be. Or, and worse, if you pretend to be someone else, that?s a lie you?ve got to live forever if you want that relationship to work out forever. So, knowing yourself is sort of the key to doing it.?
His wife doesn?t mind that he?s a gamer: ?I played video games since I was a little boy. Sarah knew I played video games. If she ever gave me a hard time about playing video games, Sarah and I would not be together. Period. There would be no us. We?d just be friends ?cause I?m not giving up something I love because you don?t think it?s cool. And conversely, Sarah likes what she likes. I don?t trash reality television. I don?t trash any. If she digs it, cool. If you love and respect someone, what brings them joy should make you happy, whether you?re involved with it or not. So, let your girls watch what they want to watch. Let your dudes watch what they want to watch. Don?t give them a hard time. And if you find yourself in one of those relationships, maybe it?s time to have a conversation.?
He cooks & cleans most of the time: ?I was born here in California, so it was nice to finally learn the correct way to do things and it?s way easier [to use a dishwasher]. And it?s way less work for me. I cook and clean most of the time. Although, Sarah sometimes will do the cleaning. If I cook, she feels bad for me, takes pity on me. But most of the time I just try to do both just to knock it out and get it out of the way. And it definitely made our lives easier.?
[From Us Weekly]
So, he?s a gamer and he cooks and cleans and he?s presumably a hands-on dad, and that?s how their marriage works, basically. I actually like the basic gist of what he says: don?t get involved with someone if you?re going to try to change them, and go into relationships understanding that everything won?t be perfect all the time and that neither of you are perfect people. Oh, and know thyself. What?s remarkable about that is that again they were SO YOUNG when they met. Knowing yourself at that age is difficult, but they did it.

Foregoing the traditional bathrobe over yoga pants look ideal for award show watching, Sarah recreated her 1999 red carpet look and posted it to Instagram:
