Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan call is quits
After nine years of marriage and one daughter, the couple has announced that they are planning on going their separate ways. The news came out yesterday much to the sadness of fans everywhere. The couple met on the set of their 2006 movie, Step UpThey started dating a short time after the movie finished filming and then they got married in 2009. Jenna gave birth to Everly, their daughter, who is turning five this year.

The couple released a joint statement on their individual Instagram accounts that said there was no scandal or terrible even that led to the demise of their marriage. The statement was sweet and stated that the couple decided that they wanted to lovingly part ways.

“Hey world!

So…We have something we would like to share.

First off, it feels odd that we have to share this kind of thing with everyone, but it’s a consequence of the lives we’ve chosen to lead, which we also happen to be deeply grateful for.  We’re living in an incredible moment in time, but it’s also a time where truth can easily get distorted into “alternative facts” ?  So we want to share the truth so you know that if you didn’t read it here then it’s most certainly fiction.

We have lovingly chosen to separate as a couple.  We fell deeply in love so many years ago and have had a magical journey together. Absolutely nothing has changed about how much we love one another, but love is a beautiful adventure that is taking us on different paths for now. There are no secrets nor salacious events at the root of our decision — just two best-friends realizing it’s time to take some space and help each other live the most joyous, fulfilled lives as possible. We are still a family and will always be loving dedicated parents to Everly. We won’t be commenting beyond this, and we thank you all in advance for respecting our family’s privacy.  Sending lots of love to everyone, Chan&Jenna.”

Jenna did say in her last interview before the news of the split that it was difficult that everyone thought that both her and Channing had the perfect marriage. During her interview with Health Magazine for the March issue, Jenna opened up about her marriage. Jenna talked about how she feels like she never gets time for herself because of the demands of her family and career. The most telling quote in the whole interview gives some major foreshadowing into the future demise of this marriage. Jenna said, “When people say you guys have such a perfect life, I want to scream and tell them no one’s perfect. I think there are such things as great fits. It is a great fit as long as you are growing together, and I think up until this point we’ve really grown together. Even if one starts to grow, the other catches up and vice versa. But I think a couple needs to be conscious and to want to do the work and be willing to look at the parts of you that need work. Both of us have been pretty aware and willing to do that. We’ve always had the same values. But we’re not perfect! Are you kidding? We fight like other couples, we disagree about things, we have days where we don’t really like each other.”

The couple has not made an additional statement, but like most people in the world we are devastated over this last celeb couple splitting up.

Brad Pitt Cleared in Child Abuse Investigation

Brad Pitt Cleared of Child Abuse ChargesStill reeling from last night there is at least one person that America can believe in again and it’s America’s favorite actor Brad Pitt. After the heartbreaking news that the super A-list Hollywood couple would be divorcing, the news only got worse when it came out that the driving force behind the divorce was allegations of child abuse against Pitt. After a very intense and thorough investigation, he was cleared of any child abuse allegations by the L.A. County Dept. of Children and Family Services. This a big win for Pitt in the fight for custody of the children that he shares with Angelina Jolie.

TMZ reported that they were informed by Law enforcement that DCFS concluded Wednesday it would close the investigation involving an incident in September between Brad and Maddox on a private jet. This incident was rumored to have been the breaking point for Jolie. She filed for divorce shortly after. It was determined that Pitt did not commit child abuse during an argument on the plane that ended with physical contact.

Social workers interviewed Brad, Angelina, the kids and witnesses on the plane. Everyone cooperated in the investigation and answered all the questions that DCFS has regarding the incident. Jolie claimed that this incident was part of a pattern of abuse on Pitt’s part that has gone on for years. DCFS didn’t buy Jolie’s claims and it was determined that no further action will be taken against Pitt.

This outcome is very favorable for Pitt in this custody battle. Currently there is a temporary custody agreement in place while Pitt is fighting Jolie for joint custody. California judges favor joint custody, unless it would be harmful to the kids so this could potentially mean that Pitt might get his wish.

 

No Joint Custody for Brad Pitt and According to Angelina Jolie

in Divorce by

0920-angelina-jolie-brad-pitt-getty-6The divorce battle rages on. This is starting to become on of Hollywood’s most contentious divorce and it is showing no sign of slowly down. The latest chapter to this crazy saga is that Angelina Jolie has turned turned down Brad Pitt’s request for joint custody and wants Pitt to have very limited access to the children with monitored visitations.

 TMZ reported previously that Pitt, 52,  filed his response to Jolie’s petition and asked the judge to grant him shared custody of the children. When Jolie, 41,  filed for divorce in September she requested sole custody of Maddox, 15, Pax, 12, Zahara, 11, Shiloh, 10, and 8-year-old twins Vivienne and Knox due to Pitt being an unfit father.  There is currently a temporary custody plan in place that requires Pitt to meet with his children only under supervision, and to undergo drug and alcohol testing.

And now Jolie is fighting against Pitt’s current petition to have joint custody. Basically they are filing petition after petition in regards to the custody of the children. Jolie believes that Pitt is abusive towards their children and the incident that caused the shocking split of Hollywood’s most A-List couple involved Pitt allegedly became verbally abusive towards on their children during an alcohol fueled rant on a private plane last September.

Jolie does not want to give Pitt any unsupervised visits with the children until he gets his act together and stops with his drinking. She does not feel like he has made enough changes in his life to give him unsupervised time with the kids. The divorce really caught him off guard and since it was announced that the couple is getting divorced, it seems like the fight for the kids is getting very heated.

Scottie Pippen and Wife Divorce Drama

in Divorce by

Scottie and Larsa Pippen DivorceThe divorce proceedings between former NBA legend Scottie Pippen and his soon to be ex wife  Larsa Pippen is getting really heated and starting to get even nastier.

When it was announced that they were getting divorced, it came as a shock to friends and family because the couple celebrated their 19th anniversary this last year. In early October Larsa made two phone calls to 911 claiming that Scottie was getting aggressive with her. She is heard reporting a domestic disturbance at her Fort Lauderdale, FL, home in the tapes.

The first call made on October 1, which TMZ posted features Larsa crying hysterically and asking for an officer to come to her house because her husband is being “really, really aggressive with me.” Scottie can be heard in the background saying that the domestic disturbance is verbal and not physical and that an officer does not need to come to the house. Larsa agrees with Scottie, but the dispatcher says one has already been called to the home.

In a second call made on October 4, was also released by TMZ, and Larsa can be heard telling the dispatcher that her husband has “gotten crazy again with me.” She says that her husband is breaking things and “just scaring me.” After this second call, Scottie filed almost immediately for divorce.

Now the couple is in the ultimate fight for the $50 million fortune and the future of their children. They signed a prenup in 1997 but both sides agreed to nullify it last year. She wants spousal support, the family home, tuition for their kids’ private schools and other stuff paid for out of the $50 million. Scottie also wants to move their 4 kids from Florida to Chicago and she wants them to stay put in Florida.

Another Celebrity Marriage on the Rocks?

in People by

rs_1024x759-160623171008-1024-keith-urban-nicole-kidman-sag-2016-tt-062316Say it ain’t so, another long term celebrity couple is rumored to be heading towards trouble. The current rumored couple is Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman. We really hope that this isn’t true.

We were rooting for Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban, especially after she split from Tom Cruise. That ill-fated couple came to an tragic end but Nicole found love with country music star Keith Urban. They had met in 2005 and seemed to be a perfect fit. Nicole and Keith celebrated ten years of marriage earlier this year, having tied the knot in a lavish ceremony in Sydney’s Manly in June 2006. The Nashville-based couple share two young daughters together, Sunday Rose, eight, and Faith, five.

According to the Daily Mail, the couple is headed for a split. The actress and her husband haven’t been spotted together in public since August 13. Sources reported to the publication that the couple is heading for a split, given that they have previously said they have never spent longer than 5 day apart.  A source said,”You have to wonder if there are fresh problems in their marriage, especially as they always make a big noise about how they hate spending time apart.”

The potential reason for the split is Keith’s drug and alcohol problems. Keith has been open about his battle with alcohol and drug addiction. He has been in rehab three times and unfortunately there appears to still be issues. His uncle Paul previously told New Idea that his family worried about Nicole and Keith’s marriage after they first wed, when he ‘relapsed.’  His uncle said that, “After the wedding he went back to dope and booze and had a relapse.”

After all these divorces we hope that Nicole and Keith make it!
