Madonna and Guy Ritchie divorce does seem to be on!
Posted on June 26th, 2008 by Hot Momma
More so then ever it appears Madonna and Guy Ritchie ARE getting a divorce! The pair have been dogged by heightened speculation of a split for months. As we first reported on June 10th, Madonna has been allegedly seeking a divorce lawyer.
The Times of London, a very reputable newspaper - not a tabloid, is now confirming that Madonna has indeed hired Paul McCartney’s lawyer, Fiona Shackleton, to represent her in the divorce.
And, they also say that Guy has lawyered up too - a lesser-known Mayfair law firm, Forsters.
Yesterday Madonna’s spokesman refused to comment on the claims. But, one lawyer told The Times that the word in legal circles was that Madonna had gone to Ms. Shackleton after making an approach to another firm perhaps famous divorce lawyer, Nicholas Mostyn QC .
Madge and Guy have been living separate lives lately. The two have rarely been photographed together and, in fact, he’s in London now while she’s in NYC.
Speculation is that Madonna and Guy do NOT have a pre-nup in place, leaving Guy in line to walk away with up to half of Madge’s fortune (according to Forbes she earned $72m last year alone). Some reports suggest the two had reached an amicable accommodation for the sake of their children. With both parties lawyering up there’s always the possibility this could be foreshadowing for a contentious split.
