Today's Evil Beet Gossip

Is Madonna Getting a Divorce?

We’ve heard the rumors that things are not all happy in the Madonna/Guy Ritchie world for a long time now, but today I’m getting tips from reliable sources (well, as reliable as they come in these matters) that Madonna has actually hired Nicholas Mostyn — Paul McCartney’s divorce attorney — to begin work on divorce negotiations. She reportedly met with him last week.

Sources are also saying that Madge did NOT sign a pre-nup with Guy Ritchie.

True? Untrue?

Stay tuned, I guess.

  • Who knows if it’s true but I highly doubt Madonna didn’t have a pre-nup in place. She’s a shrewd business woman and I doubt ever lets emotion interfere with money decisions.

  • Oh, and that dress is hideous. My mom wore something like that in the early 80s (along with Tender Tootsies shoes. ew).

  • I’d be extremely surprised to learn that Madonna somehow didn’t have a pre-nup. As Persistent Cat says, she’s way too shrewd for that. Even the oblivious Britney had one.

  • PCat – tender tootsies…ha ha ha! i wonder if librarians get a corporate discount on them.

  • If he’s smart, he’d kick the cryptkeeper to the curb. She’s only bringing him down!

  • Why she wouldn’t show up for the adoption checks..? So in spite she could spit in Their face for trusting and allowing her to adopt the way she did as soon as she won total custody. All those major career projects just suddenly came up when they needed to close the deal didn’t they? She has to shake her coochie with a young guy and prove she’s all that still to the old man too.. Did she think that too much effort on the poverty troubled, AIDS-stricken southern African part was enough for her to smile and thank them? NO! Did she really want this kid or was it a whim and publicity? Um.. Let’s see the repercussions. David is left in the cold as to what is family and love once again by this rude, rich and selfish bitch. Her own children would be left to fend for themselves as they are toss and torn between her next projects that might include them OR NOT! Really flakey, strange woman who defeats herself from living in a humane and moral manner constantly.

  • no surprise they are spiltting – he always looks so miserable in every photo with her.

  • Pre-nup or not, Guy Ritchie should be given at least half of Madonna’s fortune for not having murdered the old skank in her sleep.

  • the way he’s holding her arm looks so awkward and backwards. you can tell who wears the proverbial pants.

  • Well, if it’s true, I’ll help Guy get over her! :) I’ve always thought he was hot (and that Madonna was lucky to land such a hunk)!

  • Although I am a Madge fan, I really am cheesed off with her for wanting to divorce Guy. She’s always slating him in her documentary and now in her songs. To wait till she got David just shows how cold and calculating she really is. Poor David’s lost his natural parent and now is gonna be separated from his new father as well. The only love he will only know will be his nanny. Lola and Rocco would need to adjust as well. When Madonna dies the only thing she will have left is the money, not love. Also, I would love it if they took David Banda back to save him from this broken family.

  • Madonna is a great musician who’s given us years of tunes to gloat over… Who really cares about her personal life?

  • I wish she’d stop shak’n that 50 year old bootie around and retire gracefully.

    It’s time for her to pour a bit of energy into some genuine charity work like any rich and famous person can and should.

    Didn’t anyone else find it irritating when she went on about how her kids can’t watch trash on TV while we had to put up with her shit over the last 30 years??

  • you are all as jelous as hell………….Madonna is one of the best, a one off no one else like her.she is a diamond

  • Life sucks. It’s a shame people fall out of love as time progresses. God, if Madonna and Cameron Diaz can’t hold a relationship who can. I’m waiting for Will Smith and Jada Pinkett to break up.

  • I’m gay and gay men break up all the time. It’s sad because gay men don’t have kids an we will grow old and die alone. There’s no happy endings in gay life or straight life.

  • I didn’t know about the gossip until I stumbled upon a link in the Real Message Center, but I had noticed the Hard Candy cover and started wondering: Is the virulent Madonna back again, she had kind of calmed down these last years… then the words of “Incredible”, I quote: “Sex with you is incredible […] I need to get back there before it’s too late”, and knowing that most of what she sings is about herself I went: ummmm… is something wrong in her marriage somehow? Is she not that satisfied after all and getting tired of acting “wise”? (well of course, “wise” by Madonna standards :-D) – and is she afraid of getting old and “not able any more”?

    (of course when one bases one’s life and career on things that last only so long as we are young, there is ample reason to fear aging…)

    And as a matter of fact now I hear that she’s about to get a divorce… well well my intuition was right on the spot!

    Otherwise, yes, the comment is the same as with all people divorcing all around the world, celebs or not… Let’s hope for the best for the children involved – knowing that in these matters, divorce or not, usually everyone suffers at some degree… and those showing the least of it are not necessarily those who feel the least whithin…

    Everyone according to their own conscience I would say.
