Here's a rundown of the latest in celebrity divorce. Just the thing to get you through those last ticking hours at work!
In British news, Cheryl Cole, a singer in the group Girls Aloud, may be divorcing her soccer hubby Ashley Cole after discovering that he slept with a hairdresser and offered her money to have an abortion. Originally, after these first claims were made, she said she'd stick by her husband, but other women have come forward since then claiming they too have slept with him. He has reportedly begged her to come back, but she remains away from the family home in an undisclosed location and refuses to speak to him. Sounds like this one will be over before you can say World Cup.
Coming back over to our side of the ocean, Dina Matos McGreevey and former New Jersey governor Jim McGreevey (pictured here) are in court yet again for their messy, ongoing divorce. Dina had petitioned the court for full and broad access to Jim's partner's financial holdings, claiming that the couple's money was intertwined, and as such she had a right to see what he owned and possessed. The courts agreed in part, saying that the three joint bank accounts the gay couple share are up for view, but Mark O'Donnell's salary, stocks, and other various financial dealings are not to be revealed for court scrutiny.
Dina and Jim are still attempting to hammer out child support and custody issues, with Dina apparently trying to get every cent that she can. I must say it's hard to blame her. Most women would probably be rather angry to have their husband come to them after years of marriage and a child born and say they're gay. As long as she doesn't go all Heather Mills, she'll probably have a good shot at custody and a chunk of his cash.
John Moores, the owner of the San Diego Padres, was served with divorce papers earlier this week from his wife of 44 years, Becky. She cited irreconcilable differences in her filing, but was apparently unable to cite all their community property, stating instead that the extent of all their holdings was unknown to her at this time. Whether this will have any effect on the baseball team is yet to be determined, though most anticipate it will not. California, of course, has the community property laws that state a spouse is entitled to half the assets gained during the course of the marriage. It's hard to imagine what would tear a couple apart after 44 years though.
