LOS ANGELES, Calif. - Slash is preparing to go solo in his love life.

Court records show the guitarist filed for divorce Monday from his wife of nearly nine years.

Slash is known for his guitar play with bands Guns N' Roses and Velvet Revolver. His real name is Saul Hudson.

The filing states he and his wife Perla separated in July and cites irreconcilable differences for the split.

The couple have two sons, ages 8 and 6. Hudson is seeking joint custody of the children and asking a judge to determine how much spousal support he should pay.

The divorce filing was first reported by celebrity website TMZ.

I've always had such a crush on that dude. Minus the smoking, that's quite unattractive. I wonder what happened after 9 years that made HIM file for divorce...

Prince esta muerto...

Thanks for posting this. It's too bad he is getting divorced.

I saw Slash last night. Wow, what an amazing show at the Warfield in SF. My ears are still ringing. It was the seventh time I have seen him, three times with GNR and three times with Velvet Revolver. He is as good as ever. That new singer is incredible. They did a killer version of Communication Breakdown. The band also performed Night Train, Civil War, Rocket Queen, Sweet Child O Mine, and Paradise City. If he is playing in your town, do not miss this show.

Slash and Perla always looked like they always had fun together, like this time in Las Vegas at the GNR display at the Hardrock.
