Mel and Robyn Gibson -- Confidential Divorce

Mel Gibson DivorceMel and Robyn Gibson say they have irreconcilable differences, but not when it comes to keeping their finances private.

We've learned both Mel and Robyn filed a joint request -- essentially asking the judge in their divorce case to keep info about their finances private. The judge saw it their way and signed the order on Friday.

According to the order, neither party (and that includes their lawyers) is allowed to disclose any information revealed in the discovery process. That means all of the financial documents that have been requested to establish the value of the Gibsons' estate can't be released directly or indirectly to the media.

As we first reported, the lion's share of the estate is real property -- houses and what not. We're told the total value is less than the $900,000,000 previously reported -- but it's still a fortune.

2. Does anyone proofread or use grammar check anymore? The second paragraph in last sentence has the incorrect use of “there.”

H.W.G.A. (here we go again)...whatever the total estate is worth...don't think it will be 50 cents on the dollar !!!

11. I vote for Mel and Robin's good sense in doing it their way. What I would like to see splashed all over the smear is Sean Penn and his puking shenanigans. What a slime he is. But, TMZ would rather trash a good successful man instead of the scum called Sean Penn.

12. I knew these 2 would be more civil that the media was suggesting. Good for them for being adults about this, i also think that Mel will probably not be fighting his ex-wife over the money.
They were married for 28 yrs, that counts for something!

13. What finances of hers need to be keep private? She is just going to co-sign onto his financial disclosure statement. Hahaha, this women did not take the risks Mel did, she did not navigate Hollywood to become a leading man, she did not enter into contacts for movies, nor do anything compensateable....wait, I take that back... She stood at the alter and said "I do". Hundreds of millions of dollars for saying "I do"? Wow, who do I have to give my resume to in order to get that sweet gig?

14. To Mike (13)

It's quite simple actually! Give birth to seven children and raise them to maturity. You are a putz, Mike!
