Mischa Barton

A source said: “They’ve been together for over a month now.

“Leo is out there trying to make it as an actor, so they move in similar circles. He’s been an extremely positive influence on her.”

It is understood the couple, both 23, met in New York after Mischa Barton came out of hospital.

Mischa Barton’s publicist has moved swiftly to refute reports he is desperately trying to use the actress’ recent hospitalisation to land her on a magazine cover.

Reports then surfaced suggesting Barton’s spokesperson, Craig Schneider, was seeking to gain publicity for the 23 year old over the incident by approaching press offices to negotiate interview deals.
But Schneider has refuted the allegations, insisting he has had to turn down several magazine offers after being bombarded with phone calls from the media.

On Wednesday, police were called to the home of Mischa Barton, co-star of the upcoming CW series “The Beautiful Life: TBL.”

“Shortly after 3 p.m., a police unit responded to the home of Mischa Barton for a medical issue, which the Police Department is currently helping her with. No one was arrested,” said Det. Gus Villanueva of the Los Angeles Police Department.

Starring under director extraordinaire Ashton Kutcher looks like a sure ticket to her once glamorous spotlight in celeb world. But why would anyone buy those tacky, cheap handbags Mischa Barton “designs” and advertises for (she’s just as bad actor in this ad campaign like in any of her acting gigs)!

Former ‘The O.C.’ actress has revealed people often find her sense of style strange, but insists she will never stop taking risks with her outfits.
Mischa Barton says people think her fashion sense is “nuts”.

She said: “A few years ago people thought I was nuts for wearing headbands and fringing, but things I have been into have kind of become more popular recently.

“I grew up with pictures of Marianne Faithfull and Anita Pallenberg on my wall, they have always been my style. I am a weird replica of the 70s! But it is cool to see that it is back on trend.”

Mischa – who was born in London before her parents moved to the US when she was five – enjoys spending time in the UK because people are more accepting of what she chooses to wear.

She explained: “What is nice about fashion in Britain is that you get to be more eccentric and a bit more yourself. In the States they don’t like it when you look too different.”

The 23-year-old star has also urged women to discover their own personal style.

Mischa said: “It is about experimenting by mixing and matching to develop your own look. You should try to wear something that embodies your sense of style. I think it is bad to wear head to toe all one look.”

The former O.C. star has decided to take a break from pursuing movie roles to concentrate on a stage career.

And Barton insists gaining a part in one of the Bard’s works is her top priority, reports Contactmusic.com

She says, “I recently did a Shakespeare course because they don’t teach Shakespeare properly in American schools. But I suppose as with any play it is about finding the right cast and actors and script for you.”

Mischa Barton reveals her love and her favorite man:

“I have always been in very heavy, long-term serious relationships… three in a row. I tend to be attracted to slightly dark men, meaning they have huge lows, which I can too. This is not conducive to being happy and carefree. “I have therefore set my mind to dating if I feel like it, but not getting into anything serious. It’s difficult to find the happy medium. I am dating in a general sense… nothing exclusive. I am enjoying myself.”

When it comes to choosing potential lovers, the 23-year-old beauty prides brains over bulging muscles. She added to Britain’s Hello! magazine: “I love men to be super-intelligent rather than Greek gods. I love hanging out with the boys, so even after a relationship has ended I like to stay friends.” Mischa also spoke about her tumultuous past, including her 2007 conviction for driving under the influence and without a valid licence. She said: “I have no privacy and therefore I have grown up in the public arena. Not an excuse, just a fact. “I should have known better than to drink-drive and I am just very happy nothing worse happened. I have learnt a huge lesson and am now also more wary of my friends and their influence over me. “I should never have got in that car, and for that I admit my guilt. Sometimes you need a big shock to shake you up.”

Mischa Barton caused a bit of chaos at the Miss Sixty show when she turned up in a see-through dress E online reports.

The thin black dress that Mischa wore to New York Fashion Week was so flimsy it would turn completely see-through under photographers flashbulbs so the label’s staff had a mad dash to find something she could wear without revealing everything.

Mischa Barton is reportedly romantically involved with Kooks frontman Luke Pritchard and DJ and club promoter Tom Wright.

The News Of The World claims that Wright was upset by images of Barton and Pritchard holding hands, though the pair have allegedly been dating since December.

A friend said: “He’s convinced they are an item but is panicking after seeing Mischa and Luke holding hands.

“He feels he might have to have Mischa on a tighter leash.”

After a string of high-profile relationships – including her split from Rooney frontman Taylor Locke last month – Mischa Barton says she likes being a free agent.

“I’m not used to being single but it’s really nice,” Barton, 22, told PEOPLE at the Arcade boutique opening in Los Angeles on Thursday.

“It’s great, actually,” adds the former O.C. actress, who’s set to launch a line of high-end headbands.

In fact, Barton has advice for other single girls.

“Just embrace it,” she says. “It’s important to breathe for a minute.”

Miley Cyrus, Jessica Alba, Mischa Barton and Vanessa Hudgens reportedly are among a host of female celebrities who have designed T-shirts for their favorite charities.

The ladies have all created her own “Spread the Love” T-shirt with designers at Los Angeles based fashion line 2 LOVE. The shirts will be sold for $50 each.

A portion of the shirts’ proceeds will be donated to the star’s chosen cause. Cyrus’ design will benefit the 1736 Family Crisis Center and profits from Alba’s creation will go to help the StepUp Women’s Network.

Alba says, “I had a blast being creative and designing this tee shirt, and I know whenever I see these tees on women, I’ll be reminded to ‘Spread the Love’!”

Actress Alyssa Milano has also put her creative talents on display for the charity drive, and she is donating her T-shirt’s proceeds to the United Nations Children’s Fund, of which she is an ambassador.

She tells People.com, “I love the idea behind 2 LOVE clothing. It is fun to mix fashion and charity. The cute tank makes a statement, and helps UNICEF increase public awareness of the challenges facing the world‚s children and create positive change around the globe.”
