Celebrity Divorce

Khloe Kardashian has just gone to court a second time to end her marriage to Lamar Odom ... TMZ has learned.

Khloe, with the help of attorney Laura Wasser, filed for divorce Thursday, claiming -- as she did the first time -- irreconcilable differences. Our sources say there is a prenup and the 2 worked out a property settlement the first time around, so now it's just a waiting game. In California, a divorce cannot become final until 6 months after it's filed.

We're told the divorce is amicable ... Khloe and Lamar are on good terms and he was given a heads-up she was filing. In the docs, Khloe does say she wants to legally drop the Odom name and go back to her maiden handle.

TMZ broke the story ... Khloe filed for divorce the first time in December 2013, and the paperwork just sat in the courthouse as she tried to salvage her marriage. When Lamar OD'd at a Nevada brothel last October Khloe dismissed her divorce petition ... just weeks before the divorce was to become final.

She says it was never about getting back with Lamar ... she just didn't want to upset him while he was recovering. But the final straw came in March when Khloe saw pics on TMZ that Lamar was drinking again.

Amber Heard was not hated by Johnny Depp's mom ... in fact, Amber showed compassion for the woman in her last months ... so claim sources connected to Amber.

The sources say Betty Sue Palmer was in and out of the hospital for months, and on many occasions Amber went to her bedside at the hospital when Johnny wasn't there. The sources say Amber managed the schedules of the nurses Johnny hired.

Amber sources say Johnny was indeed absent from his mom's life during their marriage, but it wasn't Amber's doing. They say it was Johnny's choice not to see her.

The sources say Amber does not believe any members of Johnny's family hated her. As we reported, multiple sources told us Johnny's mom and siblings detested her ... even before she married Johnny.

Our Amber sources say she actually has pictures of her snuggling with Johnny's son, Jack.

Gwyneth Paltrow has just filed legal docs, asking a judge to officially end her marriage to Chris Martin ... but we know the docs aren't what they seem.

Gwyneth has asked the judge to enter a default judgment, because Chris never responded to her divorce petition. On the surface it sounds like Chris isn't playing ball, but we know it's the exact opposite.

As we reported, the former couple's business manager has been working out a property settlement, and Chris never responded to the divorce petition because he and Gwyneth didn't want lots of stories written each time documents were filed.

We're told the property settlement is now complete, and they agreed long ago to joint custody of their kids.

So the judge will enter the default and the property settlement will almost certainly remain confidential.

Mission accomplished.

Johnny Depp and Amber Heard's relationship was extremely bitter due to a full-blown feud between his family and Amber ... and this, we're told, is the backdrop for what is already an acrimonious divorce.

Multiple sources connected to the ex-couple tell us, Johnny's 2 teenage kids, his 2 sisters and his mom "hated" Amber, and openly discussed it. We're told they talked about how Amber would rail on Johnny and "treat him like crap."

Earlier this year, Johnny moved his mother, Betty Sue Palmer, into the L.A. compound where he and Amber lived ... and the tension was palpable. We're told mom often told friends she thought Amber was using Johnny for his money and fame, and to boost her own career.

We're also told before Betty Sue moved in, she only saw her son once from the time he married Amber, and both Betty Sue and Johnny blame her for keeping them apart so she'd have full control.

Our sources say Amber had 2 closed door sit-downs with Johnny's mom after she moved in, and after both meetings Betty Sue railed on her daughter-in-law, calling her a "terrible person."

We broke the story ... Amber filed for divorce Monday ... 3 days after Betty Sue died. There was no prenup, and Amber wants spousal support.

4:40 PM PT -- Johnny has filed his response through his lawyer, Laura Wasser. He is asking the judge to reject Amber's claim for spousal support.

And we know what you're thinking ... they have NOT decided what to do with their pooches, Pistol and Boo.

Amber Heard has filed for divorce from Johnny Depp ... shockingly 3 days after Johnny's mom died.

Amber filed her

Monday, citing irreconcilable differences. The couple married in February of last year, yet Amber is asking for spousal support.

Our sources say the couple had NO prenup.

It's especially harsh because Johnny was extremely close to his mother. She says in the divorce docs that they separated on May 22 ... 2 days after Johnny's mom passed.

As if that's not enough ... Johnny's new movie, "Alice Through the Looking Glass," opens Friday.

The last time we saw them together was awkward, to say the least -- their video apology for the dog smuggling incident in Australia.

Maria Shriver was a very satisfied customer after some morning activity with her longtime boyfriend.

Maria and political analyst Matthew Dowd took a stroll around her Brentwood neighborhood, and they both looked very amused.

They could be laughing about the fact she's STILL married to Arnold Schwarzenegger -- nearly FIVE years after she filed to divorce him! As TMZ first reported ... Arnold's dragging his feet on signing the docs, even though they've settled on how to split their assets.

Maria and Matt don't seem worried ... they've been a thing for more than 2 years now.

Patrick and Jill Dempsey have either reconciled or they've been asleep at the wheel in their divorce case, and now the judge has issued an ultimatum ... get on with the divorce or get it thrown out of court.

Jill filed for divorce from her former "Grey's Anatomy" star hubby in January of last year, but since then there's been no action in the case. Patrick didn't even file a response.

Judge Maren Nelson just sent Jill a legal doc, obtained by TMZ, in which she says the case has been stagnant and Jill hasn't moved for a final judgment. The doc goes on to say if the foot-dragging persists, the case could be dismissed.

Here's the real story. As we reported, neither Patrick nor Jill wanted a divorce ... she had problems with the fact that he seemed married to auto racing and was ignoring her and the kids. Patrick responded by saying that he wanted to stay married and promised to drastically cut back on racing, which he has done.

Derek Fisher and his ex-wife, Candace, have decided to destroy the embryos they had frozen during their marriage as part of their divorce settlement ... this according to court documents obtained by TMZ Sports.

David Foster has settled up with Yolanda in their divorce, TMZ has learned, and she will be well taken care of, but not for life.

We've learned the couple has struck a property settlement agreement, based on a prenup they signed before they married in 2011.

Our sources say David was generous, but as one source put it, "Yolanda isn't getting enough to retire."

David filed legal docs asking the judge to reject any bid for spousal support, but she won't be asking because the prenup provides a payout to her in lieu of support.

The judge has not signed off on the divorce ... but that should happen soon.

David Hasselhoff -- who made hundreds of millions of dollars from "Baywatch", "Knight Rider" and various other TV shows, movies and other entertainment ventures -- says he can't afford to support his ex-wife anymore because he's got less than $4k in cash to his name.

David and ex-wife Pamela Bach are locked in a spousal support war -- she's currently getting $252k a year, but he wants that amount significantly lowered, saying he's a shadow of his former financial self.

Hasselhoff says his European tour got cut short because of poor ticket sales, and he's not sure if his new reality show, "Hoff the Record," will make him flush again.

David says he's trying to stay "relevant," but it's hard. He admits to grossing $112k a month, but spends $66k. When you add what Pam gets plus taxes and living expenses, he says he saves next to nothing.

As for other assets, he states in court docs, obtained by TMZ, he has a total of $1.79 mil in real estate, retirement savings, cars, jewelry, art and other odds and ends, but cash is running perilously short.

Pamela has a wildly different story, claiming Hoff's worth more than $120 million and he continues to work. She says he has property all over the world.

Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale put their differences aside in the name of basketball ... and co-parenting.

For the first time since their divorce, the exes were seen together Wednesday -- just feet apart -- at their son Kingston's hoops game. There were smiles, from Gavin at least, but they were hardly chummy. More like cordial.

Exes playing nice ... it's catching on.

Master P will not be collecting his reality show payday ... instead the entire lump sum of nearly a million bucks will go directly to his longtime estranged wife.

The judge in their ongoing war over child and spousal support ordered Master P to hand over $825,000 -- his salary for Season 2 of "Master P's Family Empire" -- to Sonya Miller. According to docs, that amount will cover back child and spousal support payments. The judge said the amount will also be used to secure future support.

As we've reported ... Sonya's been griping for years that P refused to give her a cent in support -- even though she was with him when he built his No Limit fortune, now estimated at $200 million.

The judge's order also requires him to pay $15k to Sonya's lawyer.

Hilary Duff and Mike Comrie may be divorced, but the bitterness that triggered it seems on the surface to be all but gone.

Hilary and Mike took their son, Luca, Sunday on a stroll through Bev Hills, and they looked like the best of friends ... touching and even kissing.

Friends after divorce ... it's going around.

Brian Dunkleman is in the middle of one of the nastiest custody fights in Hollywood ... with each firing various claims including physical abuse, alcohol addiction and child stealing.

Dunkleman says his wife, Kalea, is an alcoholic who is so out of control she poses a danger to himself and their 3-year-old son, Jackson. He says she has drunkenly punched him in the face and is now involved with a cartel drug dealer she met in rehab.

The former "American Idol" host says he was so fearful he took Jackson to New York last month, went to court and got an order giving him temporary physical custody, pending a hearing.

For her part, Kalea says it's Brian who's the abuser. She says he has picked her up and thrown her against a wall in front of their son and has verbally abused her, calling her a c***, an abomination and a useless bitch. And she says he's so abusive he once locked her out of the house and made her pee outside while he smirked at her.

She admits she's had alcohol problems -- she says drinking was part of her job as a publicist for big chefs like Wolfgang Puck, but she insists she's now on the straight and narrow.

Kalea is asking a judge to order Brian to immediately return Jackson to California.

Sharon Osbourne is interviewing divorce lawyers ... TMZ has learned.

Sources connected with Sharon tell us, she's mentally ready to take steps to end her 33 year marriage to Ozzy. Since they have no minor children and California is a no fault state, a divorce would boil down to a property settlement.

We're told Sharon decided late last week she would lawyer up. And, our sources say, the fact she and Ozzy appeared onstage together for Thursday's Ozzfest announcement is not a sign they've reconciled. We're told they have not.

Michelle Pugh, the "other woman" at the center of the Sharon/Ozzy split, resurfaced Thursday at the Bev Hills salon where she works, but said nothing.

"Little People, Big World" stars Amy and Matt Roloff's divorce was a VERY even split ... right down to the family pics they collected over 27 years of marriage.

The Roloffs' divorce was finalized in late April. Neither is getting spousal support and their 4 kids are all grown -- so no issue with child support.

Each gets to keep half a stake in their Oregon family farm and the pumpkin salsa company -- which are featured on the show.

There's a special section in the docs about family photos ... it's a 50/50 split and they have to make copies of all the originals and share 'em with one another. Matt also made off with his 2 classic VW Bugs.

The new season of 'LPBW' premiered Tuesday night, and so far it's been the most civil onscreen breakup ... we'll see if it continues that way.
