No, Hugh Hefner did not file for divorce because Kendra Wilkinson is out parading her pregna-licious curves.

Yahoo OMG! has revealed that Hef lived through an 11-year separation from wife and former Playmate Kimberly Conrad (he calls her Kimberly Hefner) out of concern for their two sons. Hugh, 83, told TMZ, "At the time of the separation, I was happy to get a divorce...I am happy to be out of the marriage. I only remained married (to Conrad) for the sake of the children, at her request. I am happy to have this … Read More

Anne Heche used a quarter of her ten-minute interview on last night's interview with David Letterman to bash her ex-husband Coley Laffoon, calling him a "lazy ass" and saying that six months after their divorce has been settled (which resulted in his receiving a reported $3,700 every month in child support and a lump sum of $275,000), he is still obsessed with hanging out with her, as she told Letterman, "because I'm so fantastic."

After all she's been through during 20 tumultuous with Sean, Robin Wright Penn officially filed for divorce late last week in Marin County, California. According to our count, this is the third time the Penns have threatened each other with papers. Celebrity Love: Robin Wright Penn: "I'm Happy And Angry"

With Sean's alleged affairs with younger actresses and substance abuse, the marital unraveling hasn't been an easy thing for Robin. Last spring Sean presented her with divorce papers seemingly out of the blue, after she'd just given an interview to a high-profile U.K. women's publication … Read More

Before no-fault divorce laws, the courts considered sex something that was exclusive to marriage. A wife was protected from the negative consequences of adultery by criminal law, specific divorce laws that addressed adultery, and, in some cases, alienation of affection laws.With the introduction of no-fault divorce laws, the courts, for some reason, decided they had no business being involved in the issue of whether or not a husband was faithful, or the right of a wife to be compensated for a husband's cheating ways.Let's look at marriage and adultery from an economic point of view. Marriage vows … Read More

When you get down to basics, marriage is about money. Pounding hearts, sweet nothings and lazy Sundays in bed are all well and good, but legally, a marriage creates one financial entity where there once were two. So it makes sense that the economic downturn would affect all stages of marriage, from the beginnings (the wedding) to the end (divorce). The New York Times proves this point in two style pieces this weekend.

The first, "Farms Are for Lovers," discusses the growing trend of farm weddings. Nuptials surrounded by corn and pigs are becoming popular among earthy … Read More

High-roller Heather Mills may be longing for yesterday, after news of her arguably-excessive spending has come to fruition. Fametastic reports that Mills has spent £10 million from her seven months-old-divorce settlement with legendary musician Paul McCartney. A source says Heather has been moaning that her money isn't going as far as she'd thought.

While £10 million is no chump change –its interest alone could feed a small army- Mills does seem to have more where that came from. Her sum settlement weighted in at about £24.3 million pounds: £7.8 million pounds of existing assets, £14 million straight up cash, … Read More

When I had my kids, I bought ipecac syrup to keep in the medicine cabinet on the off chance that one of them might swallow something potentially fatal. Twenty years later, the bottle's still there, its seal unbroken, my heart full of thanks.

We hope for the best, but prepare for the worst. Like any halfway intelligent person, we pay our insurance premiums, get our mammograms, fasten our seat belts, and go through life.

So what is it about a prenuptial agreement that sends the perfectly rational among us into a giant, collective cringe?

The evidence for their usefulness, accrued … Read More

Jim McGreevey, the gay American who once admitted to being the governor of New Jersey, finally had his divorce from Dina Matos go through. And according to the Associated Press no one won. Originally, Dina Matos was offered a lump settlement of $300K but decided to play it loose and fast and go for the gold (hey, the Olympics are on TV). Anywho, it looks like Jim McGreasy (because he's sneaky) will have to pay $250 per week for support of their 6-year old daughter ($13,000 per year). He'll also part with $110,000 representing half … Read More
