Celebrity Divorce

Nicolas Cage's estranged wife doesn't give a damn they were only married for half a week before he filed for an annulment -- she says it still counts ... and she wants his money.

Erika Koike filed legal docs -- obtained by TMZ -- responding to the actor filing for an annulment last month just 4 days after they were wed in Las Vegas. As we told you ... Cage claims he "reacted on impulse and without the ability to recognize or understand the full impact of his actions," and also says the marriage was based on fraud.

Koike calls BS, claiming Nic's impulsive actions don't qualify for an annulment. As for the alleged fraud, she says Cage asked her to start again "in the right way" just 12 days after filing for an annulment ... proving their relationship's legit.

Here's the thing ... Erika agrees the 2 aren't fit for marriage and should get a divorce, but she wants SPOUSAL SUPPORT!!! According to the docs ... she says she lost career opportunities during her long relationship with Cage and her reputation's been damaged by his allegations.

She's also asking him to pay for her legal fees.

As we reported ... Nic and Erika got hitched on March 23, but were seen having an apparently heated argument moments before the wedding. They began dating in April 2018.

Adele and her husband, Simon Konecki, just announced some shocking news ... they've separated after more than 7 years together.

The pop singer's reps announced the split Friday night in a statement to the Associated Press ... saying, "Adele and her partner have separated. They are committed to raising their son together lovingly. As always they ask for privacy. There will be no further comment."

The last time we saw Adele and Simon together in public was back in January when they were photographed arriving backstage at an Elton John concert at Staples Center in downtown Los Angeles.

4:43 PM PT -- In the divorce docs -- obtained by TMZ -- Camp lists "irreconcilable difference" as the cause for the split. Anna isn't asking the court to award any sort of spousal support.

"Pitch Perfect" stars Anna Camp and Skylar Astin's marriage hit a sour note somewhere along the line -- she's filed divorce docs, making their split official.

Anna filed the petition Friday in L.A. Superior Court ... a few hours after their reps confirmed they were breaking up. Anna, who starred in all 3 'PP' flicks, and Skylar -- who appeared in 2 of them -- have been married for more than 2-and-a-half years.

They tied the knot in September 2016, surrounded by friends at a Santa Ynez, CA winery.

It seems things started to get rocky earlier this year. Their last public outing together came back in October ... at a Disney event in Los Angeles.

The last time they posted anything on social media together was in January -- one of them getting cozy for New Year.

A few weeks later she posted some shots of them dancing, but after that ... nada.

This was Skylar's first shot at marriage and Anna's second. So much for successful sequels.

People first reported the couple was breaking up.

They released a joint statement saying, "We can confirm that we have decided to separate, and this decision was made mutually and amicably."

Matt Barnes is FED UP with the Derek Fisher jokes ... going scorched earth on an internet troll for heckling him about his old enemy, saying, "He already caught these hands. You can be nxt."

Here's the backstory -- Barnes went to Twitter on Thursday to talk about the Warriors and Clippers game, saying "Hopefully y’all will stop w this PatBev locking up or shutting down KD.. Only person that can stop KD is Westbrook."

Harmless tweet, right? Except, of course, someone had to disagree. After all, this *is* the internet we're talking about ... and the troll had to reference Barnes' infamous incident with the then-Knicks coach.

"This exactly why Derek Fisher be f*cking ya baby momma you slow corny motherf*cker f*ck you for ruining all those Lob City squads with your sh*tty defense," the troll said to Barnes.

Anyone who knows Barnes knows the dude ain't gonna ignore that, so he hit the troll back with "After you done being mad go wash that green off your neck from that fake ass chain B*tch!"

The troll's response is a bit too NSFW to post word-for-word ... so we'll just say he mentioned Fisher and Barnes' ex-wife, Gloria Govan, again ... as well as calling him out for not being in the league anymore.

Barnes' response?? "I retired d*ckhead.. 15yrs & still being paid until November 2020! You gotta do better than DFish jokes. He already caught these hands. You can be nxt "

Wendy Williams is removing all traces of her estranged husband from her show ... because Kevin Hunter's name has already been scrubbed from the credits.

There was a noticeable difference in the ending credits on Friday's episode of the 'Wendy Williams Show' ... Kevin's name was missing as an executive producer, and Wendy's stood alone.

As we reported ... Kevin was not long for his role as an executive producer, and on Thursday the ax officially dropped. When Thursday's episode aired, though, he was still credited as an EP.

But now, 24 hours later, Kevin's name is nowhere to be found.

Wendy Williams no longer has to deal with her estranged husband, at least when it comes to her TV show ... TMZ has learned.

As we told you Tuesday ... Kevin Hunter wasn't going to be one of the show's executive producers much longer, and the ax officially dropped Thursday.

A spokesperson for the show tells us, "Kevin Hunter is no longer an executive producer on 'The Wendy Williams Show.'"

We broke the story ... Wendy and Kevin were in the process of reaching an "accord" where he'd step down as EP. We're told there were no issues with his job duties, but Williams was suffering from distress from his presence on set, due to issues in their relationship.

Hunter, you'll recall, allegedly fathered a child with his mistress, and Wendy filed for divorce last week and announced on her show that she was focused on the future and a "whole new life" with her son.

Wendy Williams is uneasy with the fact her estranged husband, Kevin Hunter, is still working on the set of her show -- so much so, she's decided to keep extra bodyguards on hand 'til he's out.

Sources connected to production tell TMZ ... Wendy has retained 3 full-time security guards to stand watch while she preps for and shoots her daily talk show, on which Kevin is still an executive producer, if only temporarily. We're told the extra muscle is with her day-to-day.

We're told Wendy initially hired a personal security team about a week before she served him with divorce papers because there had been a number of blowups between them leading up to her filing. In at least one instance, our sources say things got so heated, Kevin had to be restrained.

As we first told you ... Wendy's unit was on set when Kevin got served with papers. He didn't lose it at the time, but for obvious reasons ... we're told Wendy feared something could go down.

While Kevin is still technically working on the show as an EP, our sources tell us he won't be there for long. We're told the parties are trying to come to an "accord" that would allow him to step down.

Kevin -- who just allegedly fathered a baby with another woman -- issued a statement this week saying he takes full responsibility for his recent actions and is entering a time of serious self-reflection.

4/18, 8:46 AM PT -- According to the divorce docs, obtained by TMZ, Lynne is requesting spousal support. She lists their official date of separation as January 19, 2012.

Former 'Real Housewife' Lynne Curtin is giving divorce a second chance ... refiling to break from her husband after snoozing on her first go-around.

Lynne -- a "Real Housewives of Orange County" vet from seasons 4 and 5 -- just filed new court docs to divorce her estranged husband, Frank Curtin. They've been married for nearly 30 years, but clearly hit a rough patch in 2012 ... when she tried this the first time.

That one didn't stick because both parties sat on the case and a judge dismissed the attempted divorce in late 2017. It's unclear why Lynne and Frank took no action in their divorce for 5 years -- it's possible they just ignored it while attempting to work things out, and fully reconciled the marriage.

What is clear with the new filing is that Lynn wants out now.

They have 2 kids together, but they're both adults now ... so there won't be any child support issues.

That's assuming they actually go through with the big D this time.

Monica is clamming up when it comes to questions about her divorce with ex-NBA baller Shannon Brown ... and it's pissing off producers on T.I.'s reality show.

Sources close to production on "T.I. & Tiny: Friends & Family Hustle" tell TMZ ... Monica is refusing to talk about calling it quits on her marriage, and she won't even mention her ex-husband's name.

We're told Monica's decision to stay mum is frustrating the people tasked with crafting an interesting storyline for the singer ... and she's just not cooperating with producers begging for her to open up about her relationship with Shannon.

The trailer for the reality show's upcoming season makes it seem like Monica's an open book when it comes to her divorce ... but we're told that couldn't be further from the truth. In the trailer, she says she never imagined being a single mother in her 30s -- but that's all you're gonna get outta her.

We broke the story ... Monica filed for divorce from the former pro athlete back in March, after 8 years of marriage.

Jermaine Jackson is hanging his estranged wife out to dry, financially speaking ... refusing to pay her a cent of spousal support ... according to new docs she's filed in court.

Halima Rashid, who filed to divorce Jermaine back in 2016, says he's supposed to be paying her $2,500 per month. In the docs, obtained by TMZ, she says the judge in their case ordered that back in May 2018 ... and yet, she hasn't received a single payment.

She insinuates the singer's sitting on a pile of money, while she struggles. She estimates Jermaine was hauling in anywhere between $50k and $500k each month while they were married.

Halima says she makes enough to cover her monthly expenses, but just barely. Plus, she's taking care of her elderly parents who live with her. The divorce battle, now almost 3 years old, has gotten nasty at times. TMZ broke the story ... Halima's filed docs demanding her fair cut of their assets, including a collection of Michael Jackson portraits.

She filed her income declaration this week in L.A. County Superior Court in hopes the judge will force Jermaine to start paying spousal support.

Wendy Williams is making some major changes in her life ... she's searching for a new place to live after filing for divorce from her husband.

Sources close to the talk show host tell TMZ ... Wendy is scouring Manhattan looking for a new place to call home. We're told she wants to get a fresh start after calling it quits on her marriage, and her new digs will help her realize the divorce is real.

As we reported ... Wendy served hubby Kevin Hunter with divorce papers on set Thursday, finally throwing in the towel amid tons of cheating rumors and Kevin's alleged mistress having a baby.

For years, Wendy and Kevin shared a home in New Jersey ... but now, we're told she understands the best thing for her is starting over with some new surroundings ... in a new city.

12:15 PM PT -- According to the divorce docs, obtained by TMZ, Wendy says "irreconcilable differences" led to the end of the couple's marriage. The docs state a "breakdown" of the marriage over a period of at least 6 months. She wants the court to determine an "appropriate amount" of child support ... even though their son, Kevin Jr., is over 18.

11:46 AM PT -- A personal rep for Wendy tells TMZ, "Kevin is supportive of Wendy and they are working through this process together."

Wendy Williams is finally calling it quits on her marriage, amid tons of cheating rumors -- she just filed for divorce from her husband Kevin Hunter ... TMZ has confirmed.

Sources on Wendy's talk show tell us ... Kevin was served with the divorce papers Thursday morning at the studio. We're told extra security was on hand in case Kevin got enraged about the split, but he didn't.

The split comes after nearly 22 years of marriage, and most recently ... Kevin's alleged mistress, Sharina Hudson, having a baby.

Wendy is already ditching her wedding ring ... she wasn't wearing the massive rock during Thursday's episode of her show, although she made no mention of filing for divorce.

It's quite a change of tune for Wendy. Remember, it was just a few weeks ago when we got her out in NYC and she was flashing her ring and brushing off questions about Kevin's alleged affair.

Wendy's been going through a rough patch lately -- living in a sober house and getting round-the-clock help to deal with addiction issues.

As we first told you ... Wendy and Kevin were still working together on set, and while it was super awkward for some people on the show, the couple were amicable with one another and showing no overt signs of hostility. But clearly, she reached a breaking point.

Wendy and Kevin first met at an ice skating rink in 1994, getting hitched 3 years later. They have one child together, son Kevin Hunter Jr.

Tarek El Moussa couldn't stand working with Christina right after they broke up -- and although he's praising her these days, he can't wait to do his own thing ... sans the ex-wife.

The "Flip or Flop" star was on "TMZ Live" Monday to talk about shooting their 8th season, and how the exes/costars are getting along years after their very public split. Christina also has a new show on the horizon -- "Christina on the Coast" -- slated to air next month.

Check out the clip ... Tarek -- who officially divorced in January 2018 -- says shooting the show after their split was tough, but now he actually sounds happy for her success and expanding family. Christina's since remarried and is expecting a baby with her new man.

Tarek also talks about going solo -- he's filming a pilot where he mentors rookie house flippers -- but most importantly, he's amped about being cancer free!!!

Fred Durst is securing his Limp Bizkit dough in his divorce, while his now ex-wife gets ... a brand new car!!! Except it's not new ... but Fred's gonna pay for it.

Fred and his ex, Kseniya, hammered out a divorce settlement -- made easier by the fact they had a prenup -- and here's how it breaks down. According to docs, obtained by TMZ, the Limp Bizkit frontman will initially pay $7,400 per month in spousal support.

In September it goes to $5,000/month, and finally $2,500/month for the final year of payments. Of course, if she gets remarried during that time ... the payments stop. Additionally, he'll pay Kseniya a one-time lump of $26,000.

She also gets a 2018 BMW X1, which Fred will make the payments on until February 2021.

Now, as for what Fred's walking away with -- a 2014 Harley-Davidson and all his music rights and residuals for Limp Bizkit. He also retains rights to several businesses he owns, including a couple of tattoo companies.

Fred had filed for divorce back in September last year. The couple had been together for 6 years.

The judge signed off Friday on their settlement.

The docs make no mention of which party gets the "Nookie."

Lauren Sanchez has made her move to clear the decks for Jeff Bezos ... because she's filed for divorce from husband Patrick Whitesell ... the day after Bezos' divorce became final.

Lauren filed legal docs Friday, but there's more to this than meets the eye. Her divorce petition was accompanied by Patrick's response, and the two documents are exact mirrors of each other.

They both are asking for joint custody of their 2 children - 11-year-old Eleanor and 12-year-old Evan. Neither is asking for child or spousal support. BTW ... they say in the docs there is NO PRENUP.

BTW ... it really makes zero difference who filed for divorce -- it has no legal impact, but in Hollywood it's all about perception, and it appears Patrick was okay with Lauren making the first move.

Now here's where the plot thickens. Both filed legal docs in pro per -- meaning without a lawyer. We assure you, they can each afford a hired gun -- he's the co-CEO of the mega-talent agency, William Morris-Endeavor, and she's a TV personality and, well, you know.

Big clue ... the docs give the address of none other than Disso Queen Laura Wasser, who has handled just about every celebrity divorce in Hollywood, and Wasser is friends with both. The fact they filed without a lawyer and at the same time is a clear signal -- Wasser mediated the divorce and all the issues are now settled. All that's left is waiting the 6 months it takes for the divorce to become final.

It's super interesting ... Jeff Bezos' divorce from his wife of 25 years, MacKenzie, became final Thursday.

Lauren and Patrick have been married for 13 years. As we reported, Sanchez and Bezos have been dating since the Summer of 2018. Patrick, who was good friends with the Amazon chief, introduced him to Lauren 10 years ago.

Jeff Bezos and MacKenzie Bezos are a done deal ... officially -- and it sounds like she's walking away with a huge chunk of change, while he's retaining the lion's share of their companies.

Mackenzie says she's "finished the process of dissolving my marriage with Jeff," and says she's given him all of her interests in the Washington Post and 75% of their Amazon stock. She's also surrendered her interest in Blue Origin ... the aerospace company Jeff started in 2000.

To be clear ... she's not giving him all of that. No doubt, Jeff's paying out a nice chunk of what was their $149 billion net worth. BTW, that number was $137 billion when they announced the split ... so, it's been a good year for Bezos. Financially.

The former couple got hitched back in 1993 -- 6 months after they met, and way before he became the world's richest man -- and they have 4 children together ranging in age from 13 to 18.

The division of their assets could've been complicated by how much they have -- besides cold hard cash, they are straight-up baronial. They own 400,000 acres of property and are 2 of the biggest landholders in the country.

The now-exes jointly announced their plans to split following what they called a trial separation.

Jeff, of course, has already moved on to date former "So You Think You Can Dance" host Lauren Sanchez, the estranged wife of talent mogul Patrick Whitesell. As we reported, Jeff and Lauren started hooking up in 2018, after separating from their respective spouses.

Lauren and Patrick are also going through a divorce.

Jeff and MacKenzie both went to Princeton, but they met in New York when he was vice president of a hedge fund. After getting married, they quit their Wall Street jobs and moved to Seattle, where Jeff started an online bookstore -- the dawn of Amazon. Jeff started the bookstore in his garage, just like Steve Jobs.

MacKenzie is an award-winning novelist and the executive director of an anti-bullying org. called Bystander Revolution.
