Jerry O’Connell Takes a New Career Path

Now that Jerry O’Connell, (probably best known for his roles in Sliders and Stand By Me) has twins with wife Rebecca Romijn, his agenda has changed quite a bit.  While Rebecca works on her new series Eastwick (it’s due this fall), Jerry stays home to raise their two daughters, Charlie and Dolly.  Since he’s got a bit of downtime from acting, O’Connell has decided to return to school.

Starting a couple of weeks ago, Jerry became a part-time law student at Southwestern Law School in Los Angeles.  ”I had always planned on continuing my education at some point … and I’m home all day with the girls, I figured I would take a couple of classes at night. ”  

I give him credit for deciding to complete his education; it would be so easy to just rely on his fame.  I’m not sure how many more lawyers are needed in the City of Angels, but I wish him luck nonetheless!

    Let’s hope he has more altruistic motives than becoming a Hollywood lawyer. Blech. Good for him.

    Normally, I hate these two because they are so beautiful. But this isn’t a particularly good picture of either of them, and that’s quite a feat. She’s a little too tan and he looks a little too crazed. So on this day, I cannot bring forth the hate.

    Awwww. I love him. I am not sure about the lawyer thing, but the fact that he is staying home taking care of his daughters makes me love him even more.

      Same here!

      I admire him for both being a stay-at-home dad and going back to school. Also, he chose to pursue LAW of all things. I’m a pre-law student and law school is a $^%@#.

      Anyways, they’re such a cute couple.
