Madonna’s marriage on the rocks?


Rumours are abuzz that Madonna and Guy Ritchie’s marriage is on the rocks, as the couple is said to be leading virtually separate lives.

According to sources, the couple has spent most of the last six months away from each other. Speculations of trouble in the marriage camp were fuelled this week when Ritchie didn’t turn up for the pop star’s Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Fame triumph in America.

“Madonna and Guy are over. It’s all very amicable. They’ve just fallen out of love with each other,” News of the World quoted a source, as saying. “They just think it’s for the best, as after some great years together they’ve been going their separate ways.”

“Madonna’s been recording her new album Hard Candy and Guy has been trying to focus on putting a decent film out, so they are heading down different paths. “Guy has failed to show up at events which are important to Madge. He just hasn’t taken as much interest as he has previously in what she’s doing,” the source added.

Madonna is reportedly moving to New York with her kids Lourdes, 11, Rocco, 7, and adopted tot David, 2.

“They’ll try to keep things under wraps for the moment, but Guy will remain living in London and Madonna is set for New York with the kids,” another source said. “Guy will get as much access as he wants because there hasn’t been a massive falling-out... They’re agreeing to part on the best of terms. She has finally made the decision to go to America and has instructed her staff to prepare for the move. Everything will go — except Guy,” the source added.
