Don’t Count ‘Em Out Yet

There’s been a lot of divorce talk lately in celeb-dom. First, there was the Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck deal, and of course there was the supposed Madonna and Guy Ritchie split. There was even a story last week about Madonna supposedly hiring Paul McCartney’s old divorce lawyer, Fiona Shackleton. Well, forget all that nonsense, according to Guy’s own mum, Lady Amber Leighton. She recently told the UK’s Daily Mail that there is no divorce talk going on with her son and daughter-in-law. “It is absolute rubbish, worse than that,” she told the Mail. “Guy will be furious at me talking to you but I feel I can’t just let these reports go unanswered as they make me so angry and they are hurtful intrusions into their private lives.” And she continued: “That is not a couple splitting up. I’ll say it one more time, they are not getting divorced; the speculation is TT – that’s total tosh.” Well, there you have it, and from a pretty credible source I might add. Like every other couple, I’m sure Guy and Madonna are just going through some pretty rough patches. Guy reportedly left Britain this morning to be with his wife and kids in NYC. Let’s hope the couple spend some quality time together and dispel the divorce rumors.
