Famous Celebrity Divorces

When a celebrity couple gets together everyone wants to know all the details. Celebrities are so fascinating that when two of them are together it is twice as impressive. People pay a lot of money to get their wedding photos and details. There is something even greater than a celebrity wedding and that is a celebrity divorce. Most celebrity divorces are very short and messy. There can be children involved and, most importantly, the fight over who gets the money.

A very good looking couple who got a divorce in the year of 2008 was Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Philippe. They were married on June 5th, 1999, and got divorced on June 13th, 2008. This nine year relationship ended with tears and pain. This was a horrible thing in the eyes of Americans, because Reese and Ryan were considered the ‘All American Couple’. In court, they had to fight over their daughter and also who got what items. Another couple who fought over a whole lot of money is the very famous Paul McCartney and Heather Mills. This divorce was on the Forbes list of the most expensive Hollywood couples, and it got dirty and mean. This battle lasted for a very long time. Heather Mills walked away with a great deal of money, but she was still heart broken.

A very public and recent divorce was between Christie Brinkley and her husband of ten years, Peter Cook. The media was present for every court date. The reason for the divorce was because Christie Brinkley discovered that Peter was having an affair. Christie was mainly fighting for full custody of her children, while Peter was fighting for the children and the money. Christie won the battle and the children. There are so many divorces in the world of Hollywood and they all are in the eye of the media.
