Our starter home had four bedrooms and three bathrooms, and was an almost 3,000-square-foot home. I had my own garden, an office, and all three of my children had their own rooms, as well as an upstairs playroom. We were also in a really great school district. The home really was a dream come true. Unfortunately, by 2020, our marriage was coming to an end.
Akon, the singer known for "Smack That" and other hits, was arrested last week in Atlanta on an outstanding warrant, according to multiple local reports. Police were alerted to Akon's location last Friday by a surveillance camera outside a window-tinting business in DeKalb County, according to Fox5 Atlanta.

In "This Is 40," which premiered Dec. 21, 2012, Leslie Mann and Paul Rudd play Debbie and Pete, a married couple both about to turn 40 while dealing with struggling businesses, parenting two daughters and trying to rediscover a connection in their marriage. I'd been looking forward to seeing the movie for weeks, knowing my husband and I could use a date night with some comic relief, with some way to focus on someone else's marital problems instead of our own.
He was listening to the Limbaugh shit on the radio and working with people who displayed the characteristics of MAGA. After Trump was elected in 2016, he really started to get weird. He would come home spouting bullshit, and he was always contrary, confrontational, and negative. It was weird. I loved him a little less each day. We had been married for 38 years when we finally divorced, and he wasn't the same person anymore. I couldn't stand to be intimate with him anymore.
When I found myself in the wreckage of my third marriage, I finally woke up to the wrenching truth that marriage isn't for me. I looked back on my relationships and came to the sudden realization that, as much as I tried, maybe I'm not the marrying kind, have no idea what I'm doing, or am clueless about what makes a good life partner or how to be one. Or, likely, all of the above.
Divorce lawyers have seen it all - from petty revenge and emotional chaos to jaw-dropping betrayals straight out of a soap opera. In a viral Reddit thread asking, "What's the most insane, evil, or downright dumb way a spouse has tried to screw over the other?" the responses range from hilarious to horrifying - and sometimes, both at once. From people spending six figures fighting over a single ceramic ashtray (only to smash it in front of their ex)
Allura is now going through a divorce of her own, and because of this, she's brought their old mentor, Dina, into the fold to represent her. As we all know, when you're going through a divorce, you have to call up all the best lawyers for consultations so they'll be "conflicted out" - meaning your ex can't hire them. Allura did this with all but one: her nemesis, Carrington Lane.
While going through a divorce in 2020, the topic of after-school care for our two children came up, along with the associated cost. My son was in third grade, and my daughter was starting kindergarten. The thought of my kids being home alone after school gave me so much anxiety. I was insistent about adding after-school care details to the divorce decree, and I agreed that my ex and I would split the cost.
According to court documents obtained by TMZ, the model and actress wants to legally change 11-year-old Fianna Masterson's name to Fianna Phillips, further cutting ties with the disgraced That '70s Show alum. Phillips is still waiting for a judge to approve the request, but she scored a win on Friday when a judge declared the estranged spouses legally single. Phillips had filed for divorce in September 2023, less than two weeks after Masterson was sentenced to prison for two counts of forcible rape.
Keith Urban has already moved on from estranged wife Nicole Kidman, who begrudgingly filed for divorce late last month after 19 years of marriage. A source told Us Weekly that the Grammy winner, 58, is not dating one person but is open and has moved on from the marriage with Nicole. The Aussie stars who tied the knot in 2006 and share daughters Sunday, 17, and Faith, 14 began living apart at the beginning of the summer,
Looking at rentals after my divorce, all I could see was expansive space - so much for my daughters and me to fill. But when I found the perfect location, I knew it was time. We craved that space, as overwhelming as it was - space to call home, space to furnish. I reminded myself of the potential and signed the lease.
'It's appalling, really, our interest in the private lives of public people. Who would not wish Erica and Rory well? Only the most miserable among us. But if you follow golf, Rory McIlroy has been in your life for more than 15 years now, and your interest in his life is inseparable from your interest in his golf. It's just human nature ...
I want a divorce, but I am broke! Pretty much literally. I just have a bunch of credit card debt that my entire paycheck goes to, and a small savings that we're currently depleting for marriage counseling. I would gladly just give all that cash to my partner for first and last on a separate apartment. We don't share any of our debt, except for the condo and a car,
Several years ago, when the last of my daughters graduated from college, loaded her 'how-can-she-possibly-carry-that!' backpack, hugged me tight, and boarded a plane for South America with a one-way ticket, I felt a hole in my stomach the size of a meteor crash pit. I knew so many things at that moment. I knew I had a world of worry ahead of me that would last the duration of her adventure-with-no-end-date.
Going through a divorce is one of the most difficult and emotional journeys you'll ever face, but it doesn't have to be defined by conflict. Approaching the process with respect, empathy, and constructive communication can make a big difference for both partners (and for any children involved). There's no one method or process of divorce and finding the right path often depends on how well you can work together.
I was raised in a conservative home where dating wasn't allowed, and life followed a very specific roadmap: meet someone through church, get married young, stay married, and raise a family. I followed that plan for as long as I could. At 22 years old, I married the first boy who ever took me on a date. Six years later, I was divorced and had a 1-year-old son. At the time, I felt like a failure.
I married my high-school sweetheart after we both had experienced bad first marriages. We were true soulmates, married for eight years. We had a nice rural home with property and horses. I had started out as a social drinker, but I let it get the best of me and had an affair. I confessed the affair to my wife, who assured me we could get through it by getting counseling and help for my drinking, which I admitted at the time
The desire to help may never be stronger than when a patient faces the upheaval of divorce. A client's anxiety may naturally be high as they face so much change: When will they see their children? Will they have to sell or leave their home? Will they have enough money? Will they be happier or lonelier? Ideally, therapy will help the patient find their way to the most successful outcome.
On Monday, Andrew Cabot, a Massachusetts liquor entrepreneur and a member of one of Boston's most prominent families, issued a statement to People, saying that he and his wife, Kristin, were already privately and amicably separated before she was caught canoodling with her married boss, former Astronomer CEO Andy Byron, at a Coldplay concert in July. Frontman Chris Martin himself brought attention to the lovers looking extremely affectionate with each other on the jumbotron at Gillette Stadium outside Boston,
LOS ANGELES -- Searchlight Pictures' "Is This Thing On?" stars Will Arnett and Laura Dern as a couple in a struggling marriage. The dramedy - directed, produced, and with a screenplay by Bradley Cooper - follows Alex (Arnett), who is "seeking new purpose in the New York comedy scene."

Yeah, and my wife and kids don't live there, so... That was probably the- the biggest clue."
