RUMOR-VILLE: Madonna Marriage Breaking Up

I'm sure the story isn't true but it's circulating on the net...I love Madge and Guy!

Madonna Marriage Breaking Up
Wednesday August 4, 2004


Madonna's marriage to British filmmaker Guy Ritchie is breaking up, say sources -- torn apart by Guy's jealousy over her success and his misplaced fears that she's cheating on him.

The soon-to-be 46-year-old superstar reportedly attempted to get pregnant again through a high-tech in vitro process in a desperate bid to save her nearly four-year marriage.

But now the Material Mom is ready to abandon ship.

"Madonna's marriage is definitely on the rocks," an insider declared.

ACCUSATIONS

"Guy's been accusing Madonna of cheating while she's on tour, and despite her assurances that she's not, it seems he's convinced himself that she is.

"The truth is Madonna isn't cheating on Guy, and she's probably fed up with dealing with his insecurities.

"What's even more ridiculous is that Guy has been with Madonna most of the tour, so when would she have the chance to cheat?"

When serious marital problems first surfaced last year, Madonna thought she could fix them by getting pregnant, a source close to the singer disclosed.

"Because of her age, Madonna visited fertility doctors in both Los Angeles and London recently and even sought the blessing of her spiritual adviser, Rabbi Yehuda Berg.

"But it hasn't happened, and because of her age the odds are against her."

GUY'S 'DISASTER'

Witnessing the obsessive devotion Madonna's fans have shown her on her tour -- while watching his own career wane -- has fueled Guy's insecurity and jealousy, the close source said.

"Guy's star has faded. His adaptation of the Italian film 'Swept Away' with Madonna as the star was a complete disaster.

"He still has a huge ego but now when he looks in the mirror every day, he sees Mr. Madonna, rather than Guy Ritchie, filmmaker extraordinaire.

"There's no question he's completely devoted to their son Rocco and Madonna's daughter by Carlos Leon, Lourdes.

"But the simple fact is, Guy can't seem to stand that he'll always be behind Madonna in terms of success.

"Guy is wounded and hurt so he's lashing out at Madonna, accusing her of infidelity. I think he's sabotaging their relationship."

As soon as Madonna kicked off her Re-Invention Tour in late May, "Guy became agitated and in a bad mood," said the insider.

"If he wasn't with her at all times, he was in cell phone contact.

"Whenever he talked to Madonna on the phone, he would ask who she'd been hanging out with and exactly what she did all day.

"He was intimidated by the in-concert adulation she was getting to begin with. He'd never been in the middle of things while she was on a major concert tour before.

'HE'S CONVINCED'

"Recently, Madonna told a close girlfriend: 'Things aren't going well. Guy accused me of cheating with other men on the tour. I'm not cheating on him but that doesn't matter. He's convinced himself I am.'

"Madonna finished up the conversation with her girlfriend by saying, 'Marriage just doesn't seem to work out for me.'

"Privately, Madonna seems miserable. There's no convincing Guy that she's not sleeping with her backup dancers or meeting with old boyfriends while she's on tour.

"The absurd accusations have eaten away at the trust Madonna and Guy used to have between them."

The close source added: "It's really sad because Madonna really thought she found the man she'd spend the rest of her life with.

"But Guy apparently can't deal with his wife being so famous.

"Recently Madonna and Guy spent the weekend in Toronto in hopes of patching up some of their problems.

"Sadly, though, the people closest to Madonna think the marriage is beyond repair."

this story circulates about every 3 months.


though i do wish it were true. he's been a bad influence on her, and they don't seem like a very good match. plus, he's about 180 degrees from the sort of guy she usually goes for. he's a bit too blond pretty-boy for her.

Interesting. I follow Madonna and have never seen this specific news. I personally think Guy is the best thing (besides her kids) to ever happen to her. I did find this today on MSNBC.com...

Is Madonna's marriage on the rocks?

Buzz about supposed marital discord between the Material Girl and her filmmaking hubby has been heating up, and now comes a report that Guy Ritchie threatened to punch out Madonna's rabbi.

After one of Madonna's Kabbalah advisors kept giving her advice backstage, Ritchie grabbed him by the scruff of the neck and declared that he was going to "break your face," according to the London Sun. Madonna responded by pulling off her hubby and screaming at him not to "embarrass" her, and then they went off.

Madonna's rep didn't respond to The Scoop's requests for comment by deadline.

Madonna and Ritchie have long had a tempestuous relationship, though it seemed to have settled down lately when they both became interested in Kabbalah. Ritchie, says a couple who knows them, was initially skeptical of the controversial religion, but eventually became more deeply involved than his wife. Tension has resurfaced while Madonna has toured, according to insiders, because Ritchie's been overwhelmed by the enthusiasm of some of Madonna's fans.

"Madonna was clearly bummed out at one concert," says a source. "She was in such a foul mood, she didn't want to go out and perform. But then the crowd was great, and that got her all charged up. She draws a lot of energy from the crowd's love. I guess that's part of the problem."

I thought she was filming the tour in the style of her earlier 'Truth Or Dare' movie? how could she have an affair with cameras on her, all the time?

this news specifically? well, i have no idea. didn't even read it. but i'm subscribed to the Madonna Information Report that sends out collected news items several times a week, and stories about Madonna and Guy splitting up surface every few months.

Really? Seems a lot like the guy she normally goes for. Reminds me most of Sean Penn.

no, most of the guys she goes for are dark and a bit dangerous looking/acting. Guy is a bit of creampuff, compared to most of them. although, strangely, he's inspired a rather dark/violent streak in her work lately....

this is some cow2 pooptoast

it seems like madonna and guy are very happy. if they have been fighting, they've been doing an awfully good job of keeping their arguments from view of the paprazzi's lens. and if guy is all gung ho about kabbalah, i doubt he'd rough the rabbi up like one of the goons from his films.

cop my bs alarm is on high cop

confused She's always had that gap in her front teeth. As odd as this may sound, that's one of the main reasons I continued to like her after she continued to blow up....any celebrity who doesn't change an imperfection like that is cool in my book,cespecially since it is such an inexpensive procedure. Now, the wrinkles are new. lol But, Madonna's body looks great for 46. Hat's off to her for taking care of herself after two babies.
