Is there any yardstick how long these actors can walk together after marriages leaving behind their innocent babies?

Another very unfortunate happening. It is a misnomer to call them heroes when they almost always prove to be not presentable in real lives.

Felt very sad for the daughters as both parents count for a child. It is becoming a dilemma that the more liberals are the more intolerant. Marriages are a bond that needs to be kept forever and only in extreme circumstances that the divorce be an option.

Well marriage and divorce is the very personal and private matter of every individual be it a celebrity or otherwise. So in my opinion we should respect others privacy in the same manner as we would like ours to be respected.... Mustn't pass any comments to hurt anyone's feelings....

its become fashion and fame nowadays, very sad and misuse of social media, we expect some nation building use of social media instead of sharing personal matters and media hype. Sorry i could not stop commenting.

Well it's sad but divorce is better than unhealthy relationship, and it gives you new lease on life.

I don't understand the high rate of divorce within celebrities in short period due to their personal insidious and arduous problem instead of vivacious life. The children will severely be affected due to high vulnerability and they become mentally upset perennially and their loss is irretrievable. The celebrities are flamboyant for their fans as they fellow them.
