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.

62. Mel Gibson is a whore and a slut and dragged his beautiful wife through years of pure crap. He's set a rotten example for his children, that's for sure. Lets see if Mel can {FINALLY}, be a real man and not drag his wife {and thus his kids}, through any contesting . That woman should immediately be given half of everything THEY own without any drama from Mel-the-whore. And I hope Robin starts to enjoy life, now that she finally is getting some respect and is ditching that complete slut and loser. He's only cheated on her about a thousand times.

63. Hey #46 Brenda. What the hell are you talking about. I grew up catholic (who believes in evolution) , I was hit and humiliated everyday by those nuns in grade school, what great memories, but you take the cake. He sacrificed to entertain us, really? really? That's a sacrifice, making 900 million dollars. What the hell does Braveheart have to do with anything, it's a movie that told of the Scottish winning their freedom. It was a good movie, but I won't watch it now knowing what a racist he is. Maybe his wife has put up with his racism and infidelity all these years and finally decided enough is enough. A lot of people give money to charities that doesn't make him a saint. And if she stayed married to him all these years because they are catholic, well then maybe she's the saint. And I hope she takes all of his money and then she can help with charities. Maybe the Elie Wiesel Center or the Holocust Museum in Washington.

67. Ann, Pat and other of you man hating feminazies. Get a life and realize that Mel should get half of every dime of those 600 million that Robyn made. Since she made those 600 million bucks, you know she earned it and deserves half. RIGHT? Now lets get to the facts of this case. Why don't you Ann, why don't you Pat, and why don't the rest of you man hating (feminists?) come out against the Taliban and the rest of the REAL WOMAN HATERS. NO you gutless wonders only hate men who are conservative and SUCCESSFUL. GET OUT OF MY SIGHT YOU FEMALE JERKS.
