Mel Gibson Responds to Robyn

Posted Apr 13th 2009 5:41PM by TMZ Staff

Mel Gibson has filed his response to wife Robyn's divorce petition -- and it only took a matter of hours.

Mel Gibson

Gibson, unlike his wife, gives a specific date of separation -- the papers say the date is August 26, 2006. The date is hugely significant -- Mel's infamous DUI arrest was less than a month earlier -- July 28, 2006. Gibson cited irreconcilable differences.

As we reported, Robyn and Mel grew apart after the arrest. The date Gibson lists for separation confirms this.

Gibson also lists "irreconcilable differences" as the reason for the divorce.

Gibson is repped by prominent divorce lawyer Robert Kaufman, whose celeb clients include Jennifer Aniston, Jessica Simpson and Reese Witherspoon.

31. That date doesn't sound right. I remember when Britney Spears was going through her mess and he reached out to her. He made a comment saying him and his wife saw what was happening to her and wanted to reach out in anyway they could. Why would he refer to them as a couple then if they weren't "together". I say it all became offical sometime probably late last year. But not that date he gives.

32. She is going to clean-him-out!!$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

She deserves all his money!! Having 7-children for this man, and giving up her youth, to live with a drunken cheater. She really loved him, because she could have left years ago and got half

33. #21, Mel's wife Robyn, daughter Hannah & husband Kenny, and son Edward where in Costa Rica when Britney went. It doesn't mean Mel and Robyn weren't separated. They probably are mature and respectful to one another to keep the family first and be civil despite their marriage not working.

34. I agree with Sapphyre (No. 16)

37. So Rick are you saying you hate Jews too. Or like Mel you only have the nerve to say it when your drunk. Or maybe just like Mel your father raised you to hate Jews. So, what you are saying is you are a RACIST also. Thanks for putting in your stupid, racist two cents

38. Dude... Mel has been popped by the paparazzi with all kinds of women for years. I guess she got sick of holding her head down in shame on the way to Malibu country mart. I mean when EVERYONE knows its time to save what dignity you have left. They sell Mel is worth 900 million dollars according to Forbes... "Go Passion of the Christ!" that means 450 for you Robyn, plus alimony, plus child support for little Tom who turns 10 tomorrow.

Sad

41. Another sef-righteous hypocrite, who doesn't practice what he
preaches. All that money he gives for the church only to betray its teachings.
She should have dumped his Jew -hating ass long ago.! He's just a
wealthy drunken homophobic midget with no talent left.

42. First #36 Do you know how to spell? And he's a great guy, are you serious? He is a lunatic. Second #22 We know he doesn't follow the Pope, his daddy taught him that and to hate Jews. I went to Catholic school for twelve years and not once did they teach us to hate Jews. He learned that at home. Third #5 Rick, so basically what you are saying is you are a RACIST also. Just wanted to clear that up.
