I have scanned the InStyle October 2008 feature. In total it's twelve pages, including the cover. Now you can judge the interview for yourself (see my rant two posts below) and enjoy all the new photos! If you want to use the scans on another website, please ask first and no hotlinking!
Meg Ryan looks happy and relaxed as she buys some magazines at a newsstand in Santa Monica on Friday. Seven large photos have been added to the gallery.
I finally was able to buy InStyle magazine and read the actual interview with Meg. I will have scans up this Sunday!!
But first, a personal rant, sorry. Earlier this week I decided against posting Dennis Quaid’s bizarre reaction to this interview, because I first wanted to read the actual interview. But now that I’ve read the interview, I feel the need to say something about it anyway. When you’ve read the actual interview in the magazine - not just the few quotes out so far - I think you will understand my rather acid reaction below.
The interview with In Style is nice and has some great photos and I am sure you will enjoy it. In it, Meg speaks about her work, about her children, her hobbies and – yes – about her failed marriage and the great effect on her of how the media handled that. Yep, she confirms what has been known for a while now: Dennis Quaid was not faithful to her, but at the same time she makes it very very clear she does not blame him and was not innocent herself, she was no victim, she wishes him nothing but the best and even emphasizes he is a great dad to their son Jack. In the interview she takes responsibility for her actions, does not accuse people, and shows the ability/desire to forgive, let go and move on.
How disappointing then to see earlier this week that her ex-husband somehow seems to lack those abilities. His words - given to no less a gossip(!) column - were no doubt hurtful to Meg and their son Jack. Strange words, coming from a man, who cheated on his ex-wife for a longer period of time, yet at the end of their marriage and the following eight years let that same ex-wife be blamed fully for their divorce and let her be dragged through the mud by the media, while he played the role of an innocent victim. Apparently he feels it was okay for the media to paint her as a scarlet woman, who left her husband on a whim, but it is not okay for us to find out about his own ongoing cheating during his marriage. Strange also, a man telling his ex-wife to shut up and move on, yet at the same time he himself speaks of their divorce in this month’s GQ magazine, and spoke about it on many occasions in magazine interviews in 2007, 2006 and earlier. Apparently he feels he is allowed to tell his side of the story, but she is not allowed to tell her side of the story. And the strangest part? His supposed concern for his son. If he were really that concerned, he would not have badmouthed his ex-wife so publicly – she sure does not badmouth him in InStyle(!) - and he would also have admitted to his own marital sins a long time ago instead of letting his ex, the mother of that son, be blamed by the media for their divorce so ruthlessly for eight years. Oh, and in case Mr. Quaid missed it: Meg Ryan has a beautiful family of her own, too. Just because she has not remarried - Mr. Quaid is currently on marriage number three(!) - does not mean her life is somehow worth less than his. Or are we back in the fifties again?
To me, his words show that the person who has not moved on and is, and has been, rewriting history is in fact Dennis Quaid himself.

In Style Interview and Photoshoot
23 Sep 2008
The InStyle October issue with Meg on the cover will come out in the US later this week. We'll have scans of the article probably late next week! InStyle.com has put some of the quotes and photos from the photoshoot online today:

From the Celebrity Baby Blog: during a Wednesday appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Meg Ryan said it was "inevitable" that she would one day be mom to Daisy True, 3 ½. Although she looked into adopting an American child, the 46-year-old actress feels that "events conspired" to lead her to her daughter.
"You have to make yourself kind of available, you get all kinds of accreditations and they clear you and you have to wait quite a while and then [the adoption is] sudden," Meg recalls. "I had a plan to go to India, and was on my way to India, when I got this little picture [of Daisy] and they said,' Here's your daughter!'"
"It's incredible ... You start to feel like 'Oh, she's calling me,' and 'I'm calling her.' I was supposed to leave India on the 16th and the [orphanage] said I could meet her on the 18th in China, and it was only like a six hour flight, so it was sort of inevitable.
The "proscribed process" of adoption in China left Meg feeling "overwhelmed," and her emotions ran the gamut. "I never laughed harder or cried more...I was so nervous about the whole thing," she admits. With the stress of the adoption behind them, Meg says that -- two years later -- Daisy is flourishing, funny, and just generally a "really interesting kid."
"She's very, very interested in over-articulating. And she's my biggest fan. She just loves me, she notices little things about me. She'll just say 'Oh mom, your arm hair it's so, so soft.' And then she'll go, 'You are blocking the TV."
During the show, Ellen also played a game with Meg called 'Peg Meg'. A few screencaps below. PS, I've updated the videopost below with one more video from the NYC pressjunket, in which Meg reveals the real reason son Jack attended the official premiere of The Women ;).
