Reese Witherspoon and friend from July 2008, courtesy of Page Six magazine in the New York Post. Patti Hearst with the prize-winning Diva, who was entered at the Westminster Dog show last year. This is from Lydia Hearst's column in Page Six magazine. Ramon is living with Christina Ricci and this photo ran in the New York Post in May of 2008.
