Breakups

Actress Anne Dudek is divorcing her husband of nearly 8 years, but she's down to try the newest fad in child custody arrangements.

Dudek -- who's had roles on "Mad Men," "Big Love," 'House' and "Covert Affairs" -- has 2 kids, ages 7 and 4, with her soon-to-be ex, Matthew Heller.

According to the docs, Dudek wants to share legal and physical custody, but the physical part is where it gets interesting. Anne wants the kids to stay in one house, while she and Matthew rotate in and out every 3rd day or so.

"Bird nesting" is kinda the "in" thing to do -- and not just in Hollywood -- since psychologists think it's a good way to create stability for children of divorce.

Chris Brown is still very bitter about his breakup with Karrueche Tran -- so much so, he's going to head-to-head with her manager Jacob York.

Brown started the beef when he saw a pic of one of Jacob's other clients wearing a Chris Brown tee. He reposted it with the caption, "@jacobyork fat ass is gonna have a speech for you" ... knowing Jacob's not a fan of his.

Jacob clapped back, "cocaine is a hell of a drug #davechappelle." Then Chris dropped a diss about Jacob's "commission money he get off da bitches he manage."

This has been simmering since Karrueche and Chris split -- a source close to Chris tells us CB thinks Jacob encouraged her to leave him. Of course, Jacob tells us that's absurd since Chris had a kid behind KT's back.He says, "I think [Chris] needs to keep me out of their personal life and take actions for what he did."

Karrueche finally sounded off too, saying to Chris ... "You're calling me a bitch but screaming my name in a song. Can all this petty s**t stop ... I'm so over the drama."

Guessing the answer is no ... it won't stop.

Porn star and ex-politician Mary Carey is ending her marriage and says it's all because she's super horny and not getting enough nookie.

Mary filed the divorce docs last week in L.A. and cited irreconcilable differences -- but she tells TMZ, at least for her, the marriage to electrician Mario Monge crumbled over their lack of sex.

She claims Mario wanted her to be a housewife, get rid of her XXX moniker and go by her maiden name, Mary Ellen Cook. She admits she just didn't want to let go of her porn alter ego.

Still, it was no quickie ... the marriage lasted more than 6 and a half years. The ex Cali gubernatorial candidate is requesting spousal support, their '03 Cadillac, '04 Corvette and North Hollywood apartment. They don't have any kids.

As for the single life, Mary says she's ready to "meet people and have lots of sex."

The more you know ... men of L.A.

He said it was coming ... and now Lane Kiffin's wife has made it official -- filing divorce papers in Los Angeles ... TMZ Sports has learned.

Don McLean's wife is singing bye bye Mr. "American Pie" ... she's filed to divorce him following the alleged domestic violence blowup at the their home in January.

Pat filed the docs in Maine on Thursday citing "adultery, cruel and abusive treatment, and irreconcilable differences."

This one isn't the least bit shocking ... considering a judge ordered Don to stay away from Pat following his arrest for the alleged 4 hour domestic assault. Pat said she thought she was going to die during the incident.

The couple was married for 30 years.

Getting raided by cops at gunpoint is where Katt Williams' chick draws the line -- Hazel-E says she's getting out while the getting's good.

We got Hazel at LAX, right after she got off a plane from Georgia ... and she made it clear she and the oft-arrested comedian are officially "on a break."

You gotta see her describe Katt's latest bust -- the "Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood" star was in the house Tuesday when cops showed up to arrest him for allegedly attacking one of his bodyguards.

Hazel addressed the big question everyone's asking: What the HELL is wrong with Katt lately?

Check out her take -- even ride or die chicks have their limits.

Bow Wow got the worst birthday present ever -- an egging, which his crew thinks came at the hands of his ex-girlfriend Keyshia Cole ... as breakup revenge.

Bow Wow tweeted early Wednesday that "one of his exes" egged two luxury cars parked outside his home -- fortunately for him, the culprit messed up and yolked his friend's rides. That friend posted pics of the damage and pointed the finger at Keyshia.

But Cole tells TMZ she had zero involvement in the incident, and called out Bow Wow on Twitter for "snitching."

Our sources tell us Bow Wow and his crew are adamant the egg hit was meant for Bow Wow, not his pal, and think Cole is retaliating against him for ending their relationship.

C. Thomas Howell, aka Ponyboy from "The Outsiders," is getting divorced ... but he beat the odds in Hollywood because his marriage and partnership lasted nearly a quarter-century.

Howell's wife Sylvie filed the docs last month in L.A. Superior Court, citing the usual irreconcilable differences.

The couple has 3 kids ... one is 14 and the other 2 are adults. Sylvie's asking for physical custody but wants joint legal custody. She's also gunning for spousal support.

Tommy, who played The Reaper on "Criminal Minds," and Sylvia will fully communicate and co-parent their youngest son ... so promises his publicist, Jeff Ballard.

Tommy says, "We raised three beautiful children together ... I will always wish her the best and look forward to what the future holds for both of us."

Tank is putting the blame squarely on Tyrese when it comes to the breakup of their R&B supergroup, TGT.

It's an interesting twist ... Tyrese had announced the group's demise in December, but didn't blame anyone in particular. All he said was the group would be moving on without Ginuwine -- which seemed like a hint, but now Tank's pointing the finger at Tyrese.

Watch what happened at LAX when we asked for a TGT update. For Tank, it's all about the Benjamins.

A rep for Tyrese says the group's money was never split equally because the economic fact is Tyrese has had more chart success on his own. The rep did not deny money was behind the breakup.

On a personal level ... the rep said Tyrese still considers Tank and Ginuwine his brothers, but "business is business."

Gwyneth Paltrow needs to tell her estranged hubby to get off the dime, because we've learned he never responded to her divorce petition and the judge has taken notice.

Gwyneth filed for divorce April 20, 2015. Chris was served with legal docs on May 18th and the case has laid dormant since then. According to legal docs the Coldplay frontman never filed an answer to her divorce petition.

The judge has now notified Gwyneth and Chris, the actress may now be eligible to get a default judgment. Typically, that means she'd get what she asked for in her divorce petition. We broke the story, Gwyneth wants joint custody of their 2 kids. BTW ... she filed her petition without a lawyer.

But, as we reported, we're told business managers for Gwyneth and Chris have been privately hashing out a settlement, mostly involving their considerable assets. Based on what we know, it looks like Chris and his team simply never got around to filing an answer, which they'll probably do now.

WNBA star Brittney Griner has LOST the battle over her Keurig coffee maker -- and will hand it over to her estranged wife as part of the terms of their split ... TMZ Sports has learned.

It's the latest development in one of the nastiest breakups in pro sports history -- with WNBA players Griner and Glory Johnson finally agreeing on how to divvy up their stuff.

The good news for Brittney ... she won't have to pay spousal support and gets to keep their home in Arizona.

But Glory made out pretty well too -- according to court docs obtained by TMZ Sports, Griner has agreed to pack and ship several items including:

-- Johnson's wedding dress
-- The griddle/grill
-- The steamer
-- 1 wine cooler
-- The Keurig coffee maker
-- The juicer

Britney also has to cut a check for $25,000 ... PLUS she has to cover the $2,326 debt to Kay Jewelers for the cost of her own wedding ring.

The war is far from over -- the two are still fighting over several other issues ... including the twin babies Johnson was pregnant with during their relationship.

Mike Tyson says he thinks Brad Pitt is a "really nice guy" -- which is interesting considering he once caught the guy about to have sex with his estranged wife.

Iron Mike was on "The Real" when he was asked to recall that infamous moment back in the '80s when he caught his then (estranged) wife Robin Givens sneaking around their house with Pitt.

The whole thing is funny ... Tyson says he was actually at the house hoping to bang Givens one last time before they hashed it out with divorce lawyers when he saw Robin with Brad.

Mike says he doesn't think they actually banged -- though he thinks they were about to -- and says Pitt was goofy and stoney when he confronted the actor.

Now, almost 30 years later ... Tyson says he holds no grudges against Pitt -- and praises him as a nice guy.

Wonder how Brad feels about the whole thing.

Seth Rollins is officially back on the market ... 'cause the WWE superstar and his wrestler girlfriend are down for the count.

Rollins had been dating former WWE wrestler Zahra Schreiber since at least last year -- and stuck by her side after she was fired by WWE in August over anti-Semitic posts on Instagram.

But according to ProWrestlingSheet.com ... the two "quietly broke up last month" -- and she's already moved out their place.

James Harden is being CALLED OUT by Khloe Kardashian -- who says James begged her to be in an exclusive relationship ... only to CHEAT ON HER ASS!

KK put Harden on blast on "Kocktails with Khloe" on FYI -- saying the Houston Rockets star was so into her, that he sweet talked her into monogamy -- and then screwed her over.

"He sought me out, he wanted to be committed ... then wasn't committed."

You think you had a crappy Valentine's Day ...

TMZ Sports has learned NFL legend Terrell Davis has been hit with divorce papers courtesy of his beauty queen wife ... who filed to end the marriage 3 days before Valentine's Day.

In docs filed in L.A. County Superior Court, Tamiko Nash -- the 2005 Miss California winner and former 'Price is Right' model -- cites irreconcilable differences after more than 5 years together.

"Orange Is the New Black" star Lauren Lapkus is willing to cut her husband a big fat check to move their divorce along smoothly.

As we reported, Lapkus chose Valentine's Day to tell the world she and hubby Chris Alvarado were going their separate ways. Turns out she filed for divorce last month, and in the docs she says she's willing to write a check to Chris for $85k to settle up their community property split.

She also says in the docs, obtained by TMZ, there's no need for the court to award spousal support ... for either of them.

The couple married in 2014 and separated on New Year's Day.

Happy New Year.
