Fox 29's Kerri-Lee Halkett has gotten hitched. The anchorbabe married lawyer boyfriend Kirt Mayland on a weekend trip to New Orleans earlier this month. Halkett wrote about the trip on her blog but failed to mention the nuptials. Mayland, 37, who formerly worked on Wall Street, has moved to Philadelphia from Connecticut. The pair began dating earlier this year. Halkett, 37, has a three-and-a-half-year-old son from a previous marriage. Friends say you shouldn't search for a ring on Halkett's finger but she got a tattoo marking the wedding that will likely only be visible in a bikini. Mayland, we're told, got "KL" tattooed on his left hand ring finger. Reached this afternoon Halkett said only that she's "with a wonderful man and I've never been happier."

Lori Delgado resigned from NBC 10 as of yesterday, sources say. The news station is expected this afternoon to announce Delgado's departure. As we reported today, Delgado was just named, along with NBC 10 and its president Dennis Bianchi in a Common Pleas Court libel lawsuit by former anchor Vince DeMentri. DeMentri disappeared from the station in July after meeting with news director Chris Blackman over an alleged incident in the parking lot in which Delgado’s car had been vandalized. As we have reported, DeMentri, who is now divorced, and Delgado, who is married, once enjoyed a particularly close friendship, that soured at some point. Delgado filed a report with the Lower Merion Police Department. A Lower Merion Township official later said the department considered the report a nonissue and was not pursuing the matter any further. Delgado’s attorney Eric Weitz did not return calls yesterday or this afternoon about his client our call yesterday. Delgado had not been seen on air for about a week. Yesterday, station spokeswoman Eva Blackwell insisted the anchor was on a previously scheduled vacation. Delgado, 29, started at NBC 10 in early 2005.

The filing was a "praecipe to issue writ of summons," one of two ways to initiate a lawsuit. Typically the move is done when a more detailed civil complaint is forthcoming. DeMentri's attorneys did not return a call yesterday seeking more information. According to court records, DeMentri is suing for libel and slander, though the full filing was not available yesterday at City Hall.

The station has never publicly commented on DeMentri's absence, which began July 3, after he met with news director Chris Blackman over an alleged incident in the station's Bala Cynwyd parking lot in which Delgado's car had been vandalized. As we have reported, DeMentri, who is now divorced, and Delgado, who is married, once enjoyed a particularly close friendship that soured at some point.

Delgado filed a report with the Lower Merion police. The township's spokeswoman, Brenda Viola, said the department considered the report a nonissue and was not pursuing the matter any further. Delgado's attorney, Eric Weitz, did not return our call yesterday. His client has not been seen on air for about a week.

An NBC 10 spokeswoman says Delgado is on a scheduled vacation. The spokeswoman, Eva Blackwell, declined comment on the suit, which was first reported in a recent video by Philly.com's Marnie Hall. DeMentri declined comment by e-mail yesterday.
