Celebrity Divorce

Slash's ex says his claim they were never married is an absolutely humiliating joke to her and their kids.

Perla Ferrar was out in Beverly Hills when she reacted to the story we broke -- that Slash says they were never husband and wife because Perla hadn't divorced her first husband.

She tells us the Guns N' Roses rocker should have fresh memories of their marriages. Either the first one OR the second!

Slash is playing hardball in his divorce ... we've learned he wants a judge to say he was NEVER married to Perla with the endgame of shutting down her request for a cut of his massive fortune, but he's got a major uphill battle on his hands.

Turns out ... when Perla married Slash in 2001, she was still married to another dude, so Slash thinks she's a bigamist who had no right to share in his earnings during their 13-year marriage.

Here's what we know. Perla married a guy named Carlos Marty back in '93, but it only lasted a month. She got divorced, or so she thought. Turns out, the necessary forms for a final judgment were never properly filed.

Perla assumed she was a single lady when she tied the knot with Slash, and he assumed the same. Years later, the couple tried to get dual citizenship for their son, Cash, and during a document search they discovered she was not properly divorced.

Perla claims the couple then hired a real lawyer in 2009 and he got a judge to finalize her divorce from Carlos and hizzoner made it retroactive to 1994 ... something a judge has the power to do under these circumstances.

But now things aren't so nice, and Slash contends Perla's divorce was never final so he was NEVER married to her. As such, he wants to slam the door shut on her claim to half the earnings he accumulated during the marriage ... which totals in the 10s of millions of dollars.

We did some checking, and there's a law about "putative spouses" ... that means if 2 people have a reasonable belief they're married but there's some irregularity in the documents, a judge can still treat them as married and divide their earnings so each still gets half.

Advantage: Perla.

Ricky Schroder responded to his wife Andrea's divorce the ol' fashioned way ... with pen and paper.

Ricky did NOT have a lawyer file his answer to his wife's divorce ... he did it himself.

The actor is fine handing over physical custody to Andrea. They have 4 kids but only one, 15-year-old Faith, is a minor. Faith's been living with Andrea in Malibu since June, when the couple separated.

Not that this would ever happen ... but Ricky concedes he won't go after Andrea for spousal support.

Andrea filed for divorce in September, weeks shy of their 24th wedding anniversary.

Molly Parker's husband is ending their marriage, but he really took his sweet time doing so.

The "House of Cards" actress married Benedict Matthew Bissonnette in 2002, and he says they separated 7 years later in 2009. Now -- after another 7 years -- he got around to filing for divorce.

Benedict cited irreconcilable differences, but it's been so long you gotta wonder if he remembers the exact nature of the differences.

The good news -- everything seems super cordial. Bissonnette's filing for joint custody of their 10-year-old son and doesn't want either to pay the other spousal support. He also says there are no assets to split.

If only Frank Underwood was this easy to work with.

Keshia Knight Pulliam claims her estranged husband, Ed Hartwell, won't take a paternity test and she wants him locked up for it.

Pulliam just filed new docs saying she's already submitted her court ordered DNA sample ... but Ed missed the deadline. She wants a judge to find him in contempt, and lock him up until he hands over his sample.

That's not all ... Keshia wants Ed to register all his guns solely under his own name. They previously had weapons registered together, but Keshia wants to cut ties due to what she calls Ed's uncontrollable temper.

Dakota Fanning's mom and dad are done after almost 27 years ... TMZ has learned.

Dakota's dad, Steven Fanning, just filed for divorce from his wife, Heather, citing irreconcilable differences. Their kids are both of age, so child support isn't an issue -- Dakota's 22, Elle is 18.

As for spousal support, it's as a bit of a mystery ... Steve didn't check any boxes asking for support from Heather.

Shocker ... ex-Bulls star Dennis Rodman is pulling for the Chicago Cubs to win the World Series.

And with his ex-teammate, Scottie Pippen, going through a pretty nasty divorce, we asked if he had any advice for his fellow NBA legend.

Jennifer Meyer doesn't have a lot to say about make up gifts, which is ... interesting.

Jen, who just announced her separation from hubby Tobey Maguire, hit the town Wednesday night for some grub at Bouchon in Bev Hills, and she was all smiles.

It looks like a fun table ... Jennifer was joined by Nico Mizrahi, a portfolio manager, Katy Perry and her pal, Vanity Fair writer Derek Blasberg.

As for Jen and Nico, it's not what you think. He just got married. Jen is loaded so he could just be making the rich richer.

Here's Larsa Pippen -- we don't know what's in her future but we know what's behind her ... THAT ASS!

Just days after her split from Scottie Pippen, Larsa was showing off her insane physique on her way into a nail shop near her home in Fort Lauderdale ... walking around in a pair of tight booty shorts.

Worth noting ... no ring on Larsa's finger -- which isn't a huge surprise considering the cops responded to TWO incidents involving her and Scottie earlier this month.

Larsa was also asked about her relationship with Future before speeding off in her sick black Ferrari ... which looked ALMOST as good leaving as she did.

Larsa Pippen told police she was "scared" of Scottie Pippen during an Oct. 4th argument at their home -- in which the NBA star broke his own cell phone out of frustration ... TMZ Sports has learned.

The Brad Pitt child abuse investigation has been expanded to the entire family, including Angelina ... sources connected with Angelina Jolie tell TMZ.

Our sources say ... the L.A. County Dept. of Children and Family Services initially focused on the plane incident in which Brad allegedly struck 15-year-old Maddox.

Our sources say, through various interviews with family members, DCFS has now expanded its investigation to other alleged incidents, including interactions between Brad and Angelina which were allegedly witnessed by 1 or more of their 6 kids.

The Angelina sources say some of the children have been fearful around Brad, and Maddox in particular has problems with his dad. We're told the meeting Brad had with Maddox last week ended quickly because Maddox didn't want to be there.

None of our sources would say if the DCFS interviews turned up anything that would cause the agency to take action related to custody.

Kate Beckinsale and her husband, Len Wiseman, pulled the plug on their marriage ... TMZ has learned.

Wiseman cited irreconcilable differences. His docs state both he and Kate have waived any right to spousal support, and that suggests there's a prenup.

They were married in 2004 and have no kids together.

TMZ broke the story ... the couple's marriage was on the rocks last November. Len was spotted out with model CJ Franco, and Kate we seen shortly after -- sans wedding ring -- on the red carpet.

Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom have officially signed off on their divorce, and all that's left is a judge's John Hancock ... TMZ has learned.

Khloe and Lamar have reached a property settlement and each has now signed legal docs that were filed Friday.

It's been an on-again/off-again process. TMZ broke the story, Khloe first filed for divorce in December 2013, but the divorce stagnated for almost 2 years while Khloe went back and forth, trying at times to save their relationship and save Lamar.

After Lamar ODd and almost died a year ago, Khloe dropped the divorce, but refiled this year after it became apparent to her Lamar would not swear off drugs and alcohol.

Under California law, she has to wait 6 months from the time of filing to get a sign off from the judge, which won't happen until December.

But unless something radical happens, they will be single before the end of the year.

Scottie Pippen's marriage did not end well -- cops were called to the NBA star's home TWICE in the past 3 weeks for domestic disturbances ... TMZ Sports has learned.

We've confirmed ... the Ft. Lauderdale PD first responded to Pippen's home on October 2nd and found Larsa waiting in her car in front of the home.

Larsa told cops she was involved in a "heated verbal argument" with Scottie but insisted it NEVER GOT PHYSICAL.

Scottie told police she could come back inside and there would be no issues and even offered to leave if it made Larsa feel more comfortable. Larsa decided to leave and stay somewhere else that night. No arrests were made.

The next incident took place on October 4th. Cops were once again called to the home for a domestic disturbance. The details are unclear at this point -- but it appears no one was arrested.

Scottie ultimately filed for divorce on October 18th. Larsa has said she's hopeful the two will be able to maintain a good relationship for the sake of their 4 kids.

Oscar-winning producer and entertainment exec Alan Ladd Jr., who’s backed films like “Braveheart” and “Chariots of Fire,” is ending his nearly 30-year marriage.

If the name Cindra Ladd sounds familiar, it’s because she’s one of many women who have come forward and accused Bill Cosby of sexual assault. Cindra had been working for film producer Ray Stark in NY when she met Cosby in '69 and claims he drugged and raped her.

Here's what's interesting ... Cindra and Alan married in 1985 and the date of separation on the legal docs is listed as March 14, 2015 ... two months after Cindra went public with her Bill Cosby story.

They have no minor children together. Alan was already a big-time producer when they got hitched, and had already served as Prez of Twentieth Century Fox.

Future is NOT the reason Larsa Pippen and Scottie are calling it quits ... this according to sources connected to Larsa.

Fact of the matter is ... people have spotted Larsa and Future hanging out recently in Miami -- and with Scottie filing for divorce this week, there have been rumblings that Larsa and Future were a thing.

But sources extremely close with Larsa tell us ... they've been friends for a while and there's nothing romantic going on with them.

We've also got Future sources telling us the same thing -- and noting that he's got so many women, he's not about to mess with a married one.

We're told Scottie has been traveling a lot (mostly to Chicago for business) and Larsa felt the two were drifting -- and that's partly why they decided to call off the 19 year marriage.

The two have 4 kids together and Larsa has said she's hopeful the two can continue to co-parent together.
