Divorce Pending for Madonna
Dan Callister, PacificCoastNews.com
Here is Madonna seen leaving her New York apartment amid swirling rumors that her marriage is officially over. The very fact that she is spending time in her New York home as opposed to her London home is but one element that indicates her marriage with Guy Ritchie is done. It is rumored that Madonna has hired top divorce lawyer Fiona Shackleton, who coincidentally is the same lawyer who represented Sir Paul McCartney in his case against Heather Mills. It doesn’t sound like Madonna has had any pre-nuptial agreements in place with Guy, so given that she is worth almost $600 million dollars, a top divorce lawyer familiar with ugly and big financial estates could be necessary for Madonna. By all accounts there is no repair for her marriage, and she and Guy have been on completely different pages, and continents, for some time. On a recent trip to Milan as a couple, the two left the children at home with a nanny and slept in separate bedrooms. All schedules and plans as well were entirely opposite, and the couple’s vacay was anything but. Sources close to the couple say the two are more friends than spouses at this point, loving each other and raising the children together as friends, but all in all, they annoy each other and don’t agree on anything. Not only do they not live together any more, they hardly even see each other, and treat each other more as brother and sister than husband or wife. Ouch! No bitterness or blame however, they both have just decided it is time to move on. The official announcement is expected come the conclusion of Madonna’s Sticky and Sweet world tour in November, but it seems now that this is just the beginning of the end.
