Divorce Pool

I always hated how Chris used to cover their heads when they were being driven to some event in a car. Way to make yourself more conspicuous. I always assumed that her admiration of cheating friends was about Beyonce's "what happens on tour stays o-Ztour" attitude to putting up with Jay-Z tomcatting around.

Janeane Garofalo, who didn't even realize she was married. Oops.

Mayim Bialik and her husband are divorcing.

After being separated for a while, Dooce and husband calling it quits.

Bethany Frankel and Jason Hoppy.

I actually expected them to last a bit longer together.

Last year, she was on the cover of the Christmas edition of People and in her interview she talked about wanting to make happy holiday memories for her daughter. She also gave a peppermint bark recipe that I ended up using and it went over really well with my family/friends, so I feel bad her marriage is ending so close to Christmastime. I'm sure they didn't just decide this out of the blue last week but still...

I am sad because she was always my favorite housewife and he seemed good for her. That being said she had a fairly horrendous childhood leading to a lot of issues that I think she never full resolved. On their show she seemed at times to be testing him to see if he would leave. I could identify with that so I always felt for her but as such am not deeply surprised, but I am sad.

Is it because he legally changed his last name to RockNRoll because yeah that basically makes me go wow you are a douchebag. I'd say sorry for being judgey, but I'm a long time judgey bitch and I have honed my instincts and trust me when I say I think they are on the money for this one.

Like what the fuck, grown ass man changing his last name to RockNRoll.

Its cute that Leonardo DiCaprio gave her away. That is the only thing I can support about this union until he does something about that last name.

Got married in secret to a guy named Rocknroll. That'll end well.

Agreed. My heart melted just a *little* when I read that.

So, does this legally make her Kate RockNRoll? God, I hope not.

I don't know if she'll legally change her name but she'll still be known as Kate Winslet. Any child/ren they have together, on the other hand...what baby names go with Rocknroll?

That baby will obviously have to be named Sex Drugs, duh.

Let's see, I like Forever for a girl and Hardcore for a boy. There's always Progressive. His/her nickname could be ProgRock.

You guys I am so agitated by this though. LIKE HES NOT EVEN AXL ROSE. IF HE WAS AXL ROSE OKAY FINE. HES RICHARD BRANSON'S NEPHEW.

Like, if you always fly free on Virgin America you cannot have that last name I'm sorry, its even MORE douchey.

Well she did save his grandmother's life, so there's that.

This is what I now officially support least about that demonic union. Leo is NOT supposed to be giving Kate away. He's supposed to marry her himself! Everybody knows that, right? *huffily straightens out tinhat*

As a bonus, if/when they blow through their inheritance, they can always sell insurance!

Speaking of which, Mayhem would make a great name, too.

I'm starting to think that Kate is going for Elizabeth Taylor's record of 8 husbands, Obviously, at some point, Leo will be in there (at numbers 5 & 7) once he gets past his model phase, and they'll laugh about the 6 months she was Mrs RocknRoll following some undiagnosed head injury.

If you could somehow guarantee that her and Leo will end up together at some point, I would seriously consider loving you forever, epudom.

RocknRoll? He changed his name to RocknRoll? I can't get over that. Best of luck to them. It's kind of surprising in a "but she's a serious Oscar-decorated actress" way, but perhaps it'll work out...

She seems to have married everyone she's dated, so I think you might be onto something! I think Leo would make a great #8. They could spend their dotage together trying to remember the names of husbands 3-7. "Rocknroll? No, that can't be right. That's just ridiculous."

I am now especially irked that Mr zoot didn't take the head of IT job with Virgin Galactic when he had the chance.
