Shannon Elizabeth Gets Cozy Down Under!

Rumors that Shannon has been getting cozy with injured tennis pro, Mark Philippoussis, during a vacation down under have been in circulation.

The two were seen together at Melbourne Park looking “very friendly”.

While they didn’t watch the Aussie Open tennis matches in public together, they were definitely with each other behind the scenes.

The two have been spending a lot of time together since they met at the Aussie Millions Poker Celebrity Challenge at Crown Casino. Shannon is a regular at celebrity tournaments and is an avid poker player. Not to mention, she is a terrific tennis player, who once thought about going pro.

“They have been looking very cozy,” one source told The Eye.

Supposedly, the injured tennis player sat behind Shannon at the Crown Casino - on the same seat.

Shannon Elizabeth Divorce Update

Shannon has signed over a sum of money to her estranged husband, Joe Reitman. Just how big a piece, however, remains unclear.

According to recent court documents, the divorcing duo reached a final settlement in a civil suit filed by Reitman in March 2006 seeking half of all assets, property, earnings and investments accumulated by the couple in the five years they lived together before marrying in June 2002.

The case is separate from Shannon and Joe’s actual divorce proceedings, which were reportedly also nearing resolution.
Shannon filed for divorce in June 2005, three months after the couple announced they were separating but would remain friends.

The following March, Joe decided that friendship wasn’t everything and sued his former bride for an even share of the money that she made from her popular movie releases.
