Madge pays Guy $25m to keep 'mum
about marriage'
Melbourne:
Madonna has reportedly decided to pay hubby Guy
Ritchie 25 million dollars as part of their divorce
package - but the Brit helmer can never speak publicly
speak about their marriage. The director is said to
have agreed upon the clause that shall hold him legally
accountable if he spoke publicly about their seven
and half-year-marriage. Guy has apparently told his
pals that he was glad to be done with the marriage
and has been breathing easy since the divorce process.
"He just wants out. He has had enough of the Madonna
circus and he is massively relieved. It was never
about the money," the Herald Sun quoted a source close
to Guy as saying. "The most important things to him
are having full access to his kids, whom he adores,
and a quiet life. "She is giving Guy pound stg. 10
million, which is the value of their London home and
it's basically a way of buying his silence. "The deal
includes Guy signing a gagging order. He will never
be able to talk about what really went on. "Guy is
more than happy to sign - it's not his style to talk.
He just wants to move on with his life. "There is
no more pain left, just relief. Guy is walking away
and has said he is a much happier man." Guy is also
said to be entitled to the couple's 25 million dollar
Ashcombe House in Wiltshire while the Queen of Pop
has allegedly agreed upon granting full access to
their sons Rocco, 8, and adopted David Banda, 3 as
part of the deal.
Madge's pals nickname Ritchie 'Material
Guy'
London:
Friends close to Madonna have reportedly nicknamed
her director hubby Guy Ritchie - 'Material Guy' -
owing to his purported cash demands ahead of their
divorce. The 'Material Girl' hit maker had revealed
to her friends that money was all that Guy was after
and that he wants to bag as much of her hard-earned
320 million pound fortune as much as possible. "I'm
totally devastated that Guy's turned out to be such
a gold-digger," the Sun quoted the singer as telling
a friend. "I thought we'd been on a spiritual journey
together for the past ten years - but obviously I
was wrong. He's just after my money. "I've worked
my ass off for the last 30 years to get what I have,
and now this gold-digger wants to take it from me.
"He keeps upping his demands - he just wants more,
and more, and more from me. It's unbelievable." Close
pals of the Queen of Pop further said that Guy, who
is reported to have his own 25 million pound fortune,
never shelled a penny out of his own pocket during
the couple's eight-year-long marriage. A friend said:
"If he's meant to be worth millions, then Madonna's
never seen a penny of it. "He's never contributed
towards the running of the family and his son's schooling.
"Contrary to the image being projected, Madonna's
been the rock of the family. She's the one who has
the kids with her at all times."
Madonna likely to get custody of
children?
Wellington:
Madonna will receive custody of her three children
in the divorce settlement with soon-to-be ex-husband
Guy Ritchie, according to reports being published
in Britain. The Mail on Sunday reported that Madonna
and Ritchie, who recently announced their divorce
publicly, had reached agreement over custody of their
three children, reports the NZPA. Madonna will have
custody of her daughters Lourdes, 12, from a previous
relationship, as well as the couple's eight-year-old
biological son Rocco and their three-year-old adopted
son David, the paper reported. According to reports,
the singer would take the children with her to the
US, but Ritchie would have "broad access" to David
and Rocco. Ritchie is expected to receive up to 60
million pounds in the divorce settlement. The British
helmer plans to buy a home in New York so he can see
his children, the Mail on Sunday reported.
