TMZ is reporting that Arrow/Teen Wolf star Colton Haynes has filed for divorce in Los Angeles from celebrity florist Jeff Leatham, his husband of six months.

According to divorce documents, Haynes cites irreconcilable differences as the reason for the split.

He is asking a judge to terminate spousal support for both and indicates that each will pay their own lawyer fees.

Haynes married Leatham last October in a lavish wedding in Palm Springs officiated by reality celebrity, Kris Jenner.

Some assumed Leatham had cheated after the Arrow star posted a demo song titled, "Man It Sucks", to his Instagram account.



But Colton defended his ex-husband-to-be on Twitter asking fans to lay back, writing, "Jeff would never cheat. He is an amazing man. Please stop being mean to him."



Eagle-eyed social media folks recently noticed that Haynes had unfollowed his husband and deleted just about every pic of Leatham from his Instagram.

Colton Haynes Defends Husband: "Jeff Would Never Cheat"

Haynes and Leatham in happier times
After reports that actor Colton Haynes (Arrow/Teen Wolf) and husband of six months, Jeff Leatham, had not only split but (gasp!) unfollowed each other on Instagram, Haynes took to Twitter this morning to defend Leatham against reports of infidelity.

Haynes wrote, "Jeff would never cheat. He's an amazing man. Please stop being mean to him. The song I wrote was about a past relationship. ❤"



Apparently folks were confused about the cause of the split after Haynes shared a demo recording of a song he wrote.

Titled “Man It Sucks,” Haynes croons:

“Man it sucks / When someone figures out your games and don’t wanna play ‘em no more / We’re crying in our bed and making our way to the floor / Man it sucks / And I don’t like when you’re staying out all night and never answer your phone / I follow you around the world just to be left alone / And man it sucks.”

Colton has apparently now deleted just about every pic of Leatham from his Instagram.

Check out his demo track below.

Vanessa Trump Files For Divorce From Donald Trump Jr.



The New York Daily News reports that Donald Trump Jr. and wife Vanessa are heading to divorce court:

Like father, like son.

Donald Trump Jr.’s wife has filed for divorce.

Vanessa Trump married Trump Jr. in 2005. They have five children.

President Trump has been divorced twice.

The reasons for the divorce filed Thursday in Manhattan Supreme Court were not clear. The divorce was listed as “uncontested,” indicating the split was amicable. Trump Jr. has been traveling extensively while running his father’s business with his brother, Eric.

The "uncontested" aspect means she’s not expecting a legal battle over custody of the couple’s five children or their assets.

I get no glee from this. I don't think we should make fun of the parents of five children divorcing.

One last thing, though.

Some folks on Twitter have suggested the possibility that this could be a ploy to move assets out of the family name in case serious legal action against the Trumps were to occur.

Hmm...

Fox News host Jesse Watters is in divorce proceedings due to an affair with a 25-year-old associate producer at the network.

And no, this does not surprise me. Look at him. Tells you everything you need to know.

From The New York Daily News:
The network’s prominent host Jesse Watters — who dined on Monday with President Trump — is in the midst of divorce due to an affair with a 25-year-old associate producer.

Watters’ wife, Noelle Watters, filed for divorce in October. The couple has twin girls.

Sources said the 39-year-old host informed the network of his adulterous relationship with Emma DiGiovine shortly after Noelle filed divorce papers.

DiGiovine was transferred to “The Ingraham Angle.”

DiGiovine and Watters are still dating, sources said.

Watters met his now-estranged wife at Fox News as well.

WH Comm Dir Anthony Scaramucci's Wife Files For Divorce Citing His "Naked Ambition"

Anthony Scaramucci
According to the PageSix.com, the wife of newly-installed White House Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci has filed for divorce citing his "naked ambition" and desire to get close to Donald Trump.

Deidre Ball, who worked as a vice president in investor relations for SkyBridge Capital, the firm he founded in 2005 and sold to ascend to the White House, has filed for divorce from “The Mooch” after three years of marriage after getting fed up with his ruthless quest to get close to President Trump, whom she despises.

One source told Page Six, “Deidre has left him and has filed for divorce. She liked the nice Wall Street life and their home on Long Island, not the insane world of D.C. She is tired of his naked ambition, which is so enormous that it left her at her wits’ end. She has left him even though they have two children together.”

Scaramucci and Ball, 38, began dating in 2011 and are believed to have married in 2014.

Scaramucci appeared to be confirming the rumor tweeting this in the last hour:



He has since removed this tweet from his feed:

Donald Trump Dodges His Way Around Opposing Marriage Equality


In a recent interview with Bloomberg, 2016 GOP aspirant Donald Trump said he "wouldn't speak to them at all about it" if he were asked by a son/daughter/grandchild about why he opposes same-sex marriage.

Wow. That's 'presidential.'

From LGBTQ Nation:

Trump replied, “Well, it’s the way it is. I wouldn’t speak to them at all about it, other than they are who they are and I want them to be happy and I will love them and I will cherish them.”

“I’ve gone to gay weddings,” he continued. “I’ve been at gay weddings. I have been against it from the standpoint of Bible, from the standpoint of my teachings as growing up and going to Sunday school and going to church and I’ve been opposed to it.”

“We’ll just see how it all comes out,” he concluded, “but if I was ever in that position I’d just have to explain it.”

In recent days, the thrice-married Trump (isn't divorce a bad thing in the Bible too?) has proclaimed the Bible his favorite book; although, he was not able to quote or reference a single verse from the good book.

What's clear to many is Trump's "opposition" to marriage equality is only an attempt to placate evangelical Republicans. I no more believe Trump opposes same-sex marriage than I believe he opposes divorce.

Wife of AVENGERS Star Jeremy Renner Files For Divorce After Less Than A Year Of Marriage


After less than a year of marriage, it looks as though Avengers star Jeremy Renner is divorce court bound:

Model Sonni Pacheco filed for divorce on Dec. 5 in Los Angeles citing irreconcilable differences, court documents reveal.

The Canadian beauty listed the date of the couple's secret marriage as Jan. 13 and the date of separation as Nov. 29.

Pacheco, who is two decades younger than 43-year-old Renner, wants physical custody of the couple's 1 1/2-year-old daughter Ava Berlin along with spousal support and reimbursement for moving expenses, her filing states.

She asked that joint legal custody and visitation be granted to Renner.

Pacheco also claims the prenup she signed should get tossed on the basis of unspecified fraud and asks that Renner return her passport, birth certificate and Social Security card, TMZ.com first reported.

I'm curious as to what the "unspecified fraud" could be?

Divorce seems to be in the air with Chris Rock and celeb chef Giada De Laurentiis heading to Splitsville with their respective spouses.

If You Care Concerned About Traditional Marriage


When you see folks stand in the public square "defending" traditional marriage because it needs to be "protected," ask them this...

By a HUGE margin more straight couples divorce than gay and lesbian couples marry.

Where is the campaign to ban divorce?...

Melanie Griffith files for divorce from Antonio Banderas


TMZ is reporting that after 18 years of marriage Melanie Griffith has filed for divorce from Antonio Banderas.

Court docs apparently indicate that Griffith asks for sole custody of their sole child, Stella, as well as child support. Kind of a moot point since she turns 18 in September. In addition, Griffith is asking for spousal support.

This is Griffith's fourth divorce. She was twice married to Don Johnson and once to Steve Bauer.  This is Banderas' second divorce.

You've got to wonder - after 18 years??? What could have happened now that's so bad. Or were things bad for a while and the couple stayed together for the daughter?

Rumor: Toni Tennille dumped the Captain for another woman

The Captain and Tennille

While I know we HAVE to take anything in the National Enquirer with a a grain of salt, I have also seen reports from events I personally attended and found very "inside" information that I knew to be true made available in the tabloid.

That disclaimer said - the National Enquirer is now "reporting" (if you will) that Toni Tennille filed for divorce last month, surprising fans everywhere, because she is allegedly lesbian and left the Captain for another woman.

From the National Enquirer:

After the singers’ 39-year marriage re­cently collapsed, the Internet lit up with claims that 73-year-old Toni Tennille dumped her ailing 71-year-old husband “Captain” Daryl Drag­on because she’s been seeing another woman.

One blogger insisted that the songbird “is gay and has had a girlfriend for years.”

Another online celebrity watcher, who said her information came from a friend of the performers’ family, added that Toni is happy with her lover and “no longer found Daryl useful, ever since his illnesses caused him to cease playing keyboard or performing music.”

It has been widely reported that Daryl Dragon suffers tremors caused by a neurological condition similar to Parkinson’s disease.

I hate when divorce gossip defaults to a "coming out" story. It connects a story to the LGBT community from an unfortunate perspective.

However, it is actually much more common than the general public is aware that many marriages happened for reasons other than physical love. And as seniors, people have been known to "come out" late in life.

I don't know if Tennille is gay or not. Nor do I care.  Both Toni Tennille and Daryl Dragon have always seemed very likeable and I have nothing negative about them to say.

But if it were true it would make for an interesting conversation, much like Meredith Baxter's story, about how love and marriage were lived in the not too distant past and now present.

The Captain & Tennille file for divorce

Daryl Dragon and Toni Tennille at the height of their fame

People is reporting that Toni Tennille and Daryl Dragon, better known to millions as the 1970s singing group The Captain & Tennille, are divorcing after 39 years of marriage.

A statement on CaptainandTennille.net appears to confirm that a split is in the offing:

"Until Thursday, January 16th, 2014, when Toni Tennile met with a DIVORCE ATTORNEY, in Phoenix, AZ, everything relating to THE CAPTAIN & TENNILLE appeared to the public as them being the ideal model for a 'rock-solid' married pair. But almost all people naturally evolve over time, & sometimes hidden feelings start to be uncovered when one may read, just a little more into (the popularized, substitute heading appearing just below), stating, for instance: 'MUSIC HAS KEPT THEM TOGETHER.'"

TMZ spoke by phone with Dragon, 71, who seemed blindsided by the break-up. "I don't know why she filed. I gotta figure it out for myself first."

Dragon and Tennille met in the early 1970s and married in 1974. Their first big hit, Love Will Keep Us Together, stayed at No. 1 on the Billboard charts for nine weeks in 1975.

Among their other big hits were Do That to Me One More Time and Muskrat Love.

They also had a variety show on ABC that ran from 1976 to 1977.

Heidi Klum will file for divorce from Seal ... TMZ has reported.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... Heidi will file divorce papers in L.A. County Superior Court as early as next week. We're told Heidi will cite "irreconcilable differences" as the cause for the divorce.

The couple married May 10, 2005. They have 3 biological kids. Seal adopted Heidi's eldest girl from a prior relationship.

The couple is famous for renewing their vows every year on their anniversary ... in a lavish ceremony.

As for splitting up the goodies, there's a lot on the line. According to Forbes, in the last year alone, Klum raked in $20 million. It's unclear how much Seal made.

Heidi attended last Sunday's Golden Globes without Seal. The last photo she tweeted with him was back on December 26.
