MMA Legend Royce Gracie Taps Out of Marriage ... Demands Spousal Support

Published | Updated

UFC Hall of Famer Royce Gracie -- one of the greatest MMA fighters of all time -- is pulling the plug on his 22 year marriage ... TMZ Sports has learned.

Gracie filed divorce docs in L.A. County Superior Court seeking to end his marriage to Marianne Cuttic.

The two were married back in 1994 and have 4 children together -- 3 of them are under the age of 18.

In the docs, 49-year-old Gracie cites irreconcilable differences for the split -- but the most interesting part ... he's the one demanding spousal support. He also wants her to pay his attorneys fees.

Shocking, considering Gracie is one of the most famous MMA fighters ever -- and just fought Ken Shamrock at Bellator 149 back in February.

Marianne is a podiatrist in Los Angeles.

Royce is requesting joint physical and legal custody of their minor kids.

According to multiple reports, Gracie and his wife have been battling with the I.R.S. -- which has accused them of owing more than $1 million in back taxes.

But now, we've confirmed the Cleveland Browns QB has filed the paperwork seeking to formally end his marriage. He filed on Sept. 7th in Texas.

Sources connected to the former couple tell us RG3 and Liddicoat are not on good terms -- and the divorce ain't gonna be pretty.

Lindsay Lohan A Pic's Worth a 1,000 Words ... And So Is My Ring

Published | Updated

Lindsay Lohan is back to flashing her engagement ring and raising a lot of questions -- like is she back with Egor Tarabasov?

Lindsay was out in London Wednesday where she was sporting the emerald rock Egor gave her. She hasn't been seen with him since she fled England in July on the heels of their blowout fight.

And remember ... Lindsay had ditched the ring for another one just a couple weeks ago.

Maybe she misses Egor -- but what's more likely ... she ain't ready to give up that bling.

It's an odd question since Nick just told us he sucks at being married, but check out their response.

Drake & Rihanna Oceanfront Villa Fit For Honeymoonin'

Published | Updated

Drake's setting up camp in a $29 million Malibu mansion where any newlyweds would kill to vacation, and yeah.

We're not saying Rihanna and Drizzy are going the marriage route -- we're just saying the Tuscan-style villa overlooking Malibu's Zuma Beach looks like a 5-star resort.

The private pad has 6 bedrooms, 10 bathrooms, a chef's kitchen, theater, wine cellar ... and just about anything else they could possibly want. Drake stayed at the 11,000 sq. foot mansion during his tour's West Coast swing, and we're told RiRi spent time with him there too.

She's not stupid. That pool's insane.

The beachside crib goes for about $7k a night on Airbnb ... if you wanna live like AubRih.

Draya Michele says you might not see the second coming of her fiance, Orlando Scandrick, in the NFL ... 'cause unless the league addresses its concussion issue their son WON'T be playing.

Draya -- who welcomed a baby boy with the Cowboys CB back in April -- was out with the girls at Ysabel in L.A. when we asked about how things are going with the brand new baby.

Check out the clip ... she's making sense.

We caught the 'Bachelorette' couple walking hand in hand in Bev Hills Tuesday where they shot down their recent breakup rumors.

Halle Berry & Olivier Martinez LAX Employee Demands Get Off Your High Horse!!!

Published | Updated

Halle Berry and Olivier Martinez are rich celebrities who feel they're above the law ... so claims the lawyer for the LAX employee who, for the umpteenth time, is trying to get them to sit for a deposition.

You'll recall the LAX employee, Ronaldo Owens, sued Halle and Olivier almost a year ago after Olivier used a baby's car seat to shove him ... and it was caught on video.

That altercation was the last straw that caused Halle to pull the plug on her marriage. The divorce has since stalled, and we're told neither Halle nor Olivier are currently interested in moving forward on the divorce, and she's even holding out hope he'll get his anger under control.

Owens' lawyer says he's tried 4 times to get Halle and Olivier to sit for a deposition but he says his efforts have been thwarted.

Halle and Olivier's lawyer says he's willing to produce his clients, but only if they get assurance Owens won't go blabbing to the media about what was said.

Owens' lawyer rails back, "In this country, litigants are not afforded special treatment because of who they are or who they think they are."

Owens wants the judge to order them to sit for a depo ... or else.

Blac Chyna Paternity Test BS She and Rob Tried to Get Pregnant

Published | Updated

Producers of the Blac Chyna/Rob Kardashian reality show are teasing viewers that Chyna underwent a paternity test while she was pregnant because she doubted Rob's the dad, but it's all made up.

The tease shows Chyna demanding a paternity test and there's a shot of her with a needle in her arm ... it makes it seem like she herself is saying she was sleeping with multiple guys.

However, production sources tell us the needle is for a routine blood test ... NOT a paternity test. We're also told she has made it clear ... Rob's the only guy who could possibly be the dad.

In fact, we're told Chyna and Rob planned the pregnancy almost from the get-go. They tried for several weeks to do the deed before she actually got pregnant, despite the fact they only dated each other for a minute.

Chyna actually did tell Rob at one point he might not be the father, but did it "to get under his skin because she was pissed off at him."

Abby Wambach & Wife We're BOTH Moving Out ... Selling House In Wake Of Split

Published | Updated

Neither Abby Wambach nor her wife will get the house in their divorce -- because Abby is selling it ... TMZ Sports has learned.

Abby bought the 4,000 square foot pad in Portland, Oregon back in 2012 ... one year before she tied the knot with Sarah Huffman. Sarah moved in when they got married in 2013.

But the couple split up after having trouble back in April -- and Abby put the place up for sale in August.

The place is AWESOME -- 4 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, breathtaking views and all the privacy you could want.

Wambach bought the place for $705k ... and she's listed it for $1.349 million. Not a bad profit if she can get it.

By the way, one of the coolest rooms in the house ... is the bar, which may be one of the reasons Abby is unloading it.

Kroy and Kim Blow Off Some Steam ... After Cut By The Team

Published | Updated

Kroy Biermann and Kim Zolciak aren't letting Kroy's release from the Buffalo Bills get them down ... and they're throwing down some casino cash to prove it.

We got pics of the reality TV couple at Harrah's in Murphy, NC on Saturday ... one day after Kroy was cut. It appears he's cashing out, which is probably a good idea -- since his NFL paychecks might be coming to an end.

But then again, maybe not. Kroy says he's not retiring just yet, and sources close to the couple tell us ... he had a meeting scheduled with another team on Saturday. Based on where this photo was taken, possible suspects include the Panthers, Titans and his former team, the Falcons.

DON'T BELIEVE THE HYPE

Drake's dad doesn't think anything's changed between his son and Rihanna ... and tells us everyone should slow down on any marriage talk.

We got Dennis Graham at Bootsy Bellows on the Sunset Strip -- surrounded by a flock of chicks, naturally -- and he shot down the prevailing thought that Drizzy's "settling down" with RiRi.

Check out the clip -- he even has a pretty funny take on his son getting inked up for Rihanna.

There's plenty of evidence lately to refute Dennis, but if he's right ... Drake could learn a few things from Dad, based on this clip.

Halle Berry, Olivier Martinez Divorce Off For Now

Published | Updated

Halle Berry and Olivier Martinez raced to the courthouse last year, trying to beat each other to the punch in filing divorce papers, yet a year later they are poised to dismiss the case and stay married.

We found a legal doc in which the clerk in divorce court sent a notice to both Halle and Olivier, saying they've been asleep at the wheel and done nothing to make the divorce final. The clerk issued an ultimatum ... either do something or the case will be dismissed.

We've spoken with multiple sources, on both Halle and Olivier's side, and they say the same thing. Neither is in a rush to make the divorce final, and they're fine with staying married.

As for why ... we're told Halle isn't convinced she wants a divorce. We're told she still thinks Olivier might change, especially in the anger management department, and if he does she thinks the marriage could work.

Olivier's clearly had anger problems ... the last straw was when he pushed an LAX employee with a baby car seat and got in trouble with the law.

There are other reasons why both Olivier and Halle aren't going through with the divorce. We're told they're getting along great and both are actively involved in parenting both 3-year-old Maceo and 8-year-old Nahla. Although Olivier isn't Nahla's dad, he's still actively involved in her life.

And there's another reason. Halle -- who just turned 50 -- isn't crazy about getting a third divorce. She doesn't think it's good for her, or her kids.

So, we're told the divorce will probably just go away. For now, they're just friends and good parents, but who knows.
