While Matthew LeBlanc and Melissa McKnight claim that "irreconcilable differences" are the cause of their divorce, the reality is that the marriage failed. Whether Matt LeBlanc's adventures with an adult entertainer has a role to play, no one knows, but it does seem clear that he was spending undesirable amount of time with Andrea Anders - his costar on Joey. The couple were married for just three years (though they were engaged for five years) in a classic example of an older woman marrying a younger man.

What makes the divorce even more tragic is that there is a two-year old daughter involved and hopefully they will continue to be good parents to her after divorce. Matt was a good stepfather though to Melissa's other two kids (Tyler and Jacqueline) from her previous marriage to Anthony Esposito.

So what went wrong?

Another Friends' star - Jennifer Aniston - also had a high-profile divorce from Brad Pitt who is now obsessed with the whole Brangelina thing. No one could ever find out what went wrong in their marriage. In this case too, not a lot of information has been leaked yet. We can only speculate that like millions of other American couples, they just got sick of each other and want to have their own lives. (Related article: Marriage is a responsibility)

Kimora Lee Simmons and Russel Simmons divorce but maybe not

Not a lot of media attention has been given to this divorce - and there is already talk of a reconciliation - but this beautiful romantic story has come to an end. It has been a rather bizarre end to the relationship. An older man marrying a much younger woman - the couple have built an empire that includes the Baby Phat women's apparel brand and entertainment products like reality television programs, a book called Fabulosity, and music.

It is reported that Russel, a highly spiritual man committed to yoga, has a "platonic" relationship with Denise Vasi, a Latina, though Kimora knew about Vasi all along.

So what went wrong?

While Russel Simmons is a Buddhist, but as one person wrote on another blog, Kimora is "the most self centered, conceited, materialistic person this country has seen in decades." He may be right. Her collection of shoes, handbags, and clothes reminds of you of Imelda Marcos (except that she did it through corrupt means while Kimora worked hard for it).
