Divorces In Hollywood

There are so many divorces going on in Hollywood. From Whitney Houston to Britney Spears, the list seems endless.

Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe

Resse Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe were married for seven years and have two children. Recently, Resse filed for divorce. I’m not surprised that they are getting a divorce because her career is hotter than his. Like with Whitney, Britney, and most lokely Sara’s marriages, she was the bread winner of the family and that was probably going to take it’s toll on their marriage. He has a respectable career, but hers is skyrocketing which could have possibly lead to his rumored infidelity. It’s a shame to see their marriage end because they made a nice couple. Until recently there weren’t too many reports about their marriage being in danger.

Britney Spears and Kevin Federline

Who in the world didn’t see this divorce coming? Britney and Kevin just celebrated their two-year anniversary and the marriage is over. Considering the way they got together, this divorce was inevitable. Britney should have had an idea about the kind of man he was when he left his pregnant girlfriend in order to be with her. There were so many reports about their marriage ending way before she decided to file for divorce. She continued to deny that there was any trouble in the marriage. As with Whitney and Bobby, their marriage was highly publicized. You couldn’t pick up a magazine without seeing their faces on it. They were also on a reality show based on their relationship. The show was called Chaotic. Was that symbolic of how it really was between them?

There were reports of Kevin constantly spending up her money as well as partying. There were also reports of his infidelity. This shouldn’t have surprised Britney because he cheated on his girlfriend for her. I wonder what could have lead to the divorce. Could it have been the things I mentioned before? Could Britney not have had enough faith in his ability to be a rap artist? It’s not coincidence that she filed for divorce right around the time when his cd was released. Was she tired of supporting him? Did reading the tabloids about him being “Mr. Britney Spears” finally get to her? She should be thankful that her mother made her get a prenup or else he would have been able to take her to the cleaners. According to reports, he wants custody of their two children as well as spousal support. I think this divorce could be best for her and her children. With him out of the picture, she could concentrate on her children and her career instead of worrying about Kevin’s antics.

These were my thoughts on four highly publicized divorces. There were so many divorces, but if I listed all of them, this would be a very long article. I can only imagine how many divorces will happen in the next year.

    Yes, it’s hard enough to preserve a relationship in private, without people magnifying your issues for “entertainment”…

    *shudder*

    Exactly. The paparazzi probably plays a big factor in the famous couples breaking up.

    So much attention is given to these people, when your in the ‘limelight’ word travels very quickly and unfortunately we live in a world that still is very gossipy.

    You’re right. The celebrities do have to go through a lot in order to try and have a private life. That must be tough to go through knowing that the media is always in your business.

    Nice one Cheryl. Well after Whitney’s Million Dollar Bill I suppose everything’s getting back to normal.
