Celebrity Divorce

Laura Wasser knows better than anyone that getting divorced is a costly bitch ... but, thankfully the disso queen's got ya covered.

We got Laura -- one of the most prominent divorce lawyers in America -- outside the L.A. County Courthouse and asked about her do-it-yourself divorce website -- itsovereasy.com -- she launched earlier this year.

For the bickering birds out there that don't wanna break their piggy bank ... better listen up. Laura tells us divorce runs an average of $15k and WAY more if you hire her. But, "It's Over Easy" is incredibly cost-effective for those who wanna keep things amicable -- at a fraction of the cost.

"My Big Fat Greek Wedding" star Nia Vardalos has filed for divorce from her husband, Ian Gomez.

Vardalos filed divorce docs in an L.A. County court Tuesday ... the couple has one daughter together and got married back in 1993. She lists the date of separation as June 29, 2017 and requests both joint legal and physical custody.

Vardalos wrote and starred in 'MBFGW,' playing Toula Portokalos in the 2002 film along with John Corbett who played the groom. Gomez was also in the movie, but had a smaller role.

Nia's gone on to write and star in 'MBFGW2,' and appear in a few episodes of 'Law & Order: SVU' and a spinoff series, "My Big Fat Greek Life" which only lasted one season.

Gomez's career has included appearances on "The Drew Carey Show," as well as "Fresh Off the Boat" ... and he spent 6 years on the show "Cougar Town."

NFL lineman Roy Miller -- a 6'2", 315 lb. defensive tackle -- got so pissed off at his wife, he chased her into her SUV and then ripped off the door handle ... according to court docs.

The former Jacksonville Jaguars player has been at war with his estranged wife for months -- she filed for divorce after 30-year-old Miller was arrested for a previous domestic violence incident.

She's also claimed he's a violent alcoholic.

Now, Nicole Miller says Roy got violent again on June 26 during a dispute over custody over their children.

Nicole says she grabbed her son and put him in her SUV to leave -- but Roy chased after "and in a rage ripped my rear driver side handle off the vehicle."

She also claims he hit the car twice as she drove off.

"I don't believe he is stable," Nicole wrote in court docs ... "I am afraid he will do something even more damaging to myself or the kids."

'RHOC' stars Tamra Judge and Shannon Beador have been running their mouths and spreading vicious lies about Alexis Bellino's estranged husband ... according to him, and he's threatening to sue.

TMZ has learned Jim Bellino's lawyer fired off letters to both women -- and in one, he rips Tamra for a recent interview where she called him a "shady mother****er" who's going to jail. He also says she defamed Jim by suggesting his divorce might be "fake and for legal reasons."

TMZ broke the story ... Jim filed for divorce from Alexis last week after 12 years of marriage.

In the letter to Shannon, obtained by TMZ, he says she flapped her gums on a podcast and lied about him shutting down his trampoline biz. Even worse, he says she falsely stated, "people get paralyzed ... apparently that happened" -- again, referring to his company.

Jim says both women are not only damaging him with their "morally corrupt" gossip, but could potentially harm his children.

"Long Island Medium" star Theresa Caputo didn't see this one coming because ... months after separating from her husband, Larry, they're now living on opposite coasts while they move forward with their divorce.

We got Larry in Santa Monica on Tuesday where he told us that the couple, who had hoped for a reconciliation, are now living miles apart after a trial separation.

Larry says he's moved on with another woman after moving to the West Coast 9 months ago, but he still sounds hung up about his failed 28-year marriage.

Jill Scott's refusing to fork over a copy of Prince's "Purple Rain" -- and a bunch of other crap -- according to her estranged husband.

Michael Dobson filed docs in his divorce case with Jill ... asking the judge to punish her and make her hand over his Prince album along with a bunch of other personal items.

In docs, obtained by TMZ, Michael says he's been pestering her to get his belongings from their house, but can't because she changed the locks back in September 2017. He says she's also got a grip on 5 hotel robes, a massage table, a Dewalt laser level and worst of all ... an extended shoehorn!

We knew the split was nasty -- as we first reported, she requested a restraining order in February, claiming Michael had been trashing her since she filed for divorce -- but now it's shoehorn-nasty.

Dean DeLeo -- guitarist for the rock band, Stone Temple Pilots -- is heading for divorce ... and his wife claims he's an abusive, drunken mess who makes her fear for the lives of her and their daughter.

According to the legal docs ... Jenn DeLeo filed for divorce a couple weeks ago, just days after he made violent threats to her, admitted he was cheating and told her to get out of the house ... and did it in front of their 6-year-old daughter, June.

Jenn claims Dean's scary behavior started in 2012, shortly after they were married and she gave birth to June. She says he started abusing alcohol and drugs, and once took their baby into the ocean "while he was completely inebriated" ... nearly letting her drown.

According to the docs, Jenn says Dean physically assaulted her months later after another drinking binge when she found him in the garage passed out with the car running and the garage door closed. She claims when she woke him he got angry, vomited, then threw her around and almost killed her. She says he's attempted to strangle her several times over the years.

Jenn also accuses Dean of abusing his son from a previous marriage and telling her he could have his ex-wife killed ... which makes her constantly live in fear. Jenn claims Dean's temper is so out of control, she and June always walk on eggshells. And, she says he's threatened suicide if she leaves him ... saying she'll find him hanging like their personal friend, Chester Bennington.

Dean allegedly assaulted Jenn once again before Thanksgiving 2017 when she confronted him about his extramarital affairs. Jenn says she was going to press charges but changed her mind to avoid ruining the holiday ... but now wishes she had.

Interesting note -- Jenn is one of James Toback's sexual misconduct accusers, and says the #MeToo movement finally empowered her to file for divorce. She's seeking custody and child/spousal support, too.

We reached out to Dean ... no word back so far.

"Martin" star Tisha Campbell-Martin is accusing her estranged husband of hiding their money during their marriage ... and she wants him to pay for that.

Tisha filed new legal docs -- obtained by TMZ -- claiming Duane Martin was hiding and misappropriating money while they were married. It's unclear how much money she thinks he was hiding from her.

She's asking a judge to take action against Duane for stashing the cash.

Alexis Bellino is on her way to becoming single, though she didn't have a choice ... 'cause her husband filed for divorce.

According to docs, obtained by TMZ ... the former 'Real Housewives of OC' star's husband, Jim, filed legal docs on Thursday to end the marriage. He cites irreconcilable differences. They got married on April 16, 2005 and list "TBD" on their date of separation.

Mary J. Blige is officially a single woman ... TMZ has learned.

A judge signed off Wednesday on her divorce from Martin Isaacs. As we reported ... the exes had reached a settlement back in March, but hadn't hammered out details of their assets split.

They've now worked out the specifics ... but they're keeping it all under wraps. The terms are confidential ... according to the new docs.

It's unclear if Martin got his wish list ... which included $130k per month in spousal support.

Jesse Williams' divorce just got WAY more expensive, because a judge has just doubled his monthly nut.

Jesse has been ordered to pay $50,000 a month in child support to estranged wife Aryn Drake-Lee. He had previously been ordered to pay over $50k a month in spousal ... that was upped from $33k.

Jesse and Aryn have 2 kids, and the boom was inevitably going to be lowered on Jesse in the child support department. His lawyers had argued the $50,000 a month in spousal support should cover child support expenses, but that's not the law. Courts separate child from spousal support.

According to court docs, Jesse pulls in $521,000 a month.

The support orders are temporary until the couple either reaches a final settlement or the court imposes a final order.

Daily Mail first reported the change in child support.

Antonio Sabato Jr. is officially a single man, just in time to hit the Congressional campaign trail.

According to the docs, the former soap star and his ex, Cheryl Marie, reached an agreement on their divorce back on December 31, 2017. Happy new year, indeed. However, it took several months for the judge to sign off.

The exes have joint legal and physical custody of their 7-year-old son, Antonio III. As for property, he gets the house and a 2015 Fiat. They both agreed to return the Maserati they were leasing.

Antonio has to pay child and spousal support, though it's light for a Hollywood divorce. He'll fork over $533 a month for his kid. Cheryl gets $350 monthly in alimony, but only until April 2019. They were only married for 5 years.

He also has to pay her $10k for attorney fees, and agree not to take any drugs without a valid prescription. As we reported, Cheryl claimed Antonio abused prescription drugs, and was worried about their son's safety. Sabato admitted issues with sleeping pills, but told us he's an outspoken advocate on fighting addiction.

He'll be the Republican candidate for California's 26th District, come November.

Jeremy Meeks is gonna have his own modern family after striking a deal with his ex-wife that gives him primary custody of their 9-year-old son, and gives her a hefty sum of money ... TMZ has learned.

Sources tell us the "hot felon" -- turned "still-hot ex-felon" -- and Melissa Meeks reached the agreement shortly after their divorce was finalized earlier this month. Under the terms, we're told, Jeremy gets primary physical custody of Jeremy Jr. and Melissa will get a check ... somewhere in the 6-figure range.

As we reported, Jeremy and Melissa's original divorce deal had her getting primary physical custody with a 70/30 split in time with each parent. They've flipped that under the new deal and, starting this summer, Jr. will be living in the U.K. with Dad and his gf, Chloe Green.

We're told Jeremy and Chloe have already enrolled Jr. in a private school he'll begin attending in the fall.

The new arrangement allows Jeremy to merge both of his families. Remember, he and Chloe -- the Topshop heiress -- just had a baby of their own.

Now, little Jayden Meeks-Green will grow up with his big bro.

Former Chicago Bears starting quarterback Erik Kramer's legal problems are piling up ... his wife just filed for divorce on the heels of his arrest for allegedly assaulting her.

TMZ Sports has learned Cortney Baird filed for divorce from Kramer Friday in Southern California, the same day news broke of Kramer's arrest for a domestic violence charge.

According to various reports ... Kramer was arrested Wednesday on suspicion of felony corporal injury to a spouse at his home in Agoura Hills. Details about the incident are unclear, but he was released on $50k bond.

We've learned Baird also filed for a domestic violence temporary restraining order.

Kramer started 46 games for the Bears from 1994-1998, and also played for the Falcons, Lions and Chargers during his 10-year NFL career.

Jennie Garth doesn't seem like she wants to draw out her divorce, so it's convenient she and her estranged hubby signed a prenup ... according to new legal docs anyway.

The former '90210' star claims she and Dave Abrams agreed to a prenup before they wed in July 2015, so she wants it to be followed during their divorce proceedings.

Garth agrees on their date of separation -- August 29, 2017 -- and says she wants to change her name back. The ex-couple doesn't have any kids together.

Donald Trump Jr. wasted little time getting together with his estranged wife, Vanessa, after she fiercely defended his new relationship with FOX News host Kimberly Guilfoyle.

DTJ and Vanessa were seen leaving their apartment in NYC on Friday morning and appeared to jump into the same waiting SUV. They were probably together since they're still co-parenting their kids ... but ya gotta imagine he thanked her after she blasted haters dogging on his new GF.

One media outlet went as far as saying Kimberly should be fired because she couldn't possibly stay neutral while dating a Trump kid. One thing's for sure ... Don Jr.'s got a strong ally in Vanessa, who filed for divorce back in March.

So ... happy ex, happy life?
