Religious THE DEPARTED star MARK WAHLBERG has turned his bedroom into a sacred space, complete with holy water and the replica of a crucifixion art piece which stands at the Vatican. The Catholic actor takes his religion seriously and claims his FREDERICK HART clear resin cross with a statue of the crucified Christ inside is one of his proudest possessions. Wahlberg showed off the sculpture, which stands in an antechamber of the master bedroom he shares with girlfriend RHEA DURHAM and their two kids, as part of a recent interview with movie magazine Premiere. Wahlberg says, "(Hart) was a famous sculptor who's done all kinds of religious work... for cathedrals and stuff. "There's two of these (sculptures) - one in the Vatican and one here." The actor keeps a bottle of holy water by the side of the Hart cross so he can use the antechamber as his own personal chapel whenever he's home.
too bad he's still gotta get "regular" with the church ...
