Madge and Guy -- Officially Splitsville

Posted Oct 15th 2008 12:30PM by TMZ Staff

Madonna and Guy Ritchie are divorcing, their rep has confirmed.

"Madonna and Guy Ritchie have agreed to divorce after seven-and-a-half years of marriage. They have both requested that the media maintain respect for their family at this difficult time," says a statement given to the AP.

The joint statement from Madge and Guy's reps emphasizes the couple haven't agreed to any kind of settlement. We're told by sources in London and NYC the matter will most likely be hashed out in London, even though Madge could move to bring the matter to the US if she wanted.

Just to set the scene, Madonna is in Boston, Guy is in the UK, and A-Rod was last spotted in L.A.

The Ritchies are splitting up after 8 years of marriage.

11. Guy finally came to his senses and is leaving her skank ass.

12. It's about time. She should be ashamed of herself. She helped break up a perfectly dysfunctional marraige. Guy is lucky to be rid of that two-bit skank. Let A-Hole have her. They are perfect for each other. Maybe she can convert him, too.

13. Does this mean she has to give up the British accent now?

14. I'm soo not suprised at all. She doesn't seem like a one man kind of gal. I hope Guy finds happiness finally. Now she can go skank around as usual without the burden of a husband.
