Kelsey Grammer's Bride-to-Be Chooses 'Evil Eye' for Wedding Jewelry - TheInsider.com

Posted:

A day before her future husband's divorce was finalized, Kelsey Grammer's fiancée Kayte Walsh went wedding shopping.

Sources tell "The Insider" that Kayte visited the New York City jewelry store Aaron Basha on Wednesday, and selected two "evil eye" bracelets that she planned to use as her "something blue" on her wedding day. Kayte's choice of wedding jewelry could speak volumes, as evil eye charms are typically worn to fend off negative energy and jealousy from others.

On Thursday, the day of his divorce, Kelsey returned to the store with two of his children, and said that he wanted to buy Kayte everything she wanted.

Kelsey's ex, Bravo reality star Camille Grammer, had nothing but good wishes for the happy couple on Thursday. Camille told ET, "I have a great many mixed feelings about today -- I'm sad for what was, yet excited about the road ahead. I'm grateful to my family and friends who have stood by me through this time -- I will never forget their love and support. What I most hope is that Kelsey and I can improve our communications and truly co-parent our two wonderful children; and I wish Kelsey and [Kayte] love and happiness in their new marriage."

Kelsey and Kayte will reportedly marry on February 25, making Kayte his fourth wife.

Slidell nursing home worker booked with stealing jewelry from residents - New Orleans Times-Picayune

A woman accused of stealing a wedding ring off the finger of a resident at the Slidell nursing home where she worked has been accused of five more counts of theft from residents at the facility, authorities said.

Domenica Thomas, 42, allegedly pawned the stolen jewelry at the same shop where she sold the ring, taken from a resident at Greenbrier Nursing Home, that led to her initial arrest in January, Slidell police Detective Daniel Seuzeneau said. Thomas had worked at the nursing home for about nine months before another employee saw her talking with the resident, who was unable to leave his bed, and family members alerted police to the missing ring, Seuzeneau said.

The investigators working on the case, detectives Brian Brown and Ralph Morel, also found a large stash of jewelry, a stolen handgun, pot and documents related to a "very amateurish group" with possible terrorist sympathies in Pennsylvania, Seuzeneau said.

Some of Thomas' victims have since died, and it is unclear whether she stole from them while they were alive or after their deaths, Seuzeneau said. Police are trying to determine whether any of the other jewelry in the home was taken from Greenbrier residents.

The handgun found in Thomas' home was stolen in Pennsylvania, and police are looking into whether it is connected to any other crimes, Seuzeneau said.

Though the documents found in the home prompted investigators to contact the FBI, Seuzeneau said the group Thomas was alleged to belong to was poorly organized and appeared to have no immediate plans. According to the notes, which were written on loose-leaf paper, the group, which appeared to include former members of the Bloods gang, might have shared some of the beliefs of known terrorist organizations.

Thomas, who recently converted to Islam, appears to be the only member of the group in the Slidell area, he said.

"There didn't appear to have anything of any substance to it, but you don't know what it could have snowballed into," he said.

Thomas was booked into the St. Tammany Parish jail in Covington with five counts of theft of assets from an aged person, two counts of theft by fraud, simple robbery, illegal possession of a firearm and possession of marijuana.
