Roughly two weeks after Eddie Murphy and Tracey Edmonds ceremoniously tied the knot on a tropical island, the two have split!
Murphy's rep issued the following statement to TMZ:
"After much consideration and discussion, we have jointly decided that we will forego having a legal ceremony as it is not necessary to define our relationship further.

J.Lo and Manager -- Who Fired Who?
It's all over between Jennifer Lopez and her manager, music biz legend Irving Azoff. Our Azoff sources tell TMZ he just fired J.Lo for being "unprofessional" and for allowing hubby Marc Anthony to "constantly meddle."
The mama-to-be got a letter from Azoff last week, we're told, detailing "in blunt terms" why he was ditching her as a client after less than a year. There was also a "heated phone call" last week between Jenny's handlers and Azoff.
But Lopez's rep tells TMZ stories of a bitter split are completely untrue. The rep says "she let him go on Friday with no drama." As for the letter? Jen's camp has no knowledge of it.

Those rehab romances can be tough to break! Lindsay Lohan's rehaboyfriend, perennial arrestee Riley Giles, kisses and tells to British mag News of the World -- claiming Lindsay craved marathon sex with him. "She'd demand sex again and again. We'd go at it for hours." Poor bastard.

Bertinelli originally filed in December of 2005. The two had been married since 1981! Their son is currently on tour with dad's band.
