Gyllenhaal’s parents in financial problems
Jake Gyllenhaal and his sister, Maggie Gyllenhaal, may be famous actors with equally A-list squeezes, but it looks like their parents haven’t been reaping the benefits of their children’s success.
According to divorce documents obtained by TMZ, Stephen Gyllenhaal and Naomi Foner are in deep financial trouble. The couple, who separated last January, apparantly acquired some serious debt during the course of their marriage, including mortgage payments, home equity lines of credit against their two homes, several credit cards and “various outstanding loans.”
Naomi, a screenwriter, says she had to take out a loan during the writer’s strike because she had no money coming in.
Gyllenhaal allegedly told Foner of their finances, “I have been clear that if worse comes to worse, I will let all of this collapse into ruin, just as I believe letting the markets crash and burn are the right approach.”
Uh huh. How about just asking your kids for help?

I just saw my first commercial on TV for the game Prince of Persia and despite the character having a scarf around most of his mouth, it did look a little like Jake! ;D

Well, it's nice to know they weren't stage parents, living on their kids' money. I suggest they sell the houses and eat the losses. It's likely they have no equity. I can't imagine what was going through Naomi's head when she thought taking out more debt was the solution to her unemployment problem. Sounds like she took a gamble and lost. Just goes to show you that smart people can make really dumb financial decisions.

More Jake News... He plans to get fat! Well that's the wordchoice of the article.
Jake Gyllenhaal is looking forward to getting "fat" when he finishes shooting 'Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time'.
The 27-year-old actor - who is currently in London shooting the Disney movie, in which he plays a sixth century prince - can't wait to return to his ordinary eating regime after losing weight and building up his 5lbs of muscles for the film shoot.
He said: "I guess I've gotten buff. There's a lot of acrobatics in the movie - a lot of running up walls, and jumping on things, so it requires muscularity, but it requires a lot of aerobic ability too. But when filming wraps it's going to turn into fat and I'm going to be happy."
Jake also revealed he was terrified about starring in the fantasy adventure because he didn't think he would be able to cope with the extreme stunts.
He added: "I over-prepared myself because I never knew how much they were going to ask me to do, so I just made sure I'd be hopefully able to do anything
