Madonna visits divorce lawyer

Posted by Brett Singer

Oh, just call my lawyerIs it all over for the Material Mom and hubby Guy Ritchie? The Times of London reports that the former cone-shaped-bra-wearing singer has retained Fiona Shackleton, the UK attorney who repped Paul McCartney against Heather "I ain't sayin' she's a gold digger" Mills. The Daily News calls that case "a major coup" for Shackleton, since Sir Paul was able to hang on to "all but $48 million of his $1.6 billion fortune." This is important, because like the "cute Beatle", Madonna apparently also has no pre-nup.

Now, far be it from me to point out the obvious. But no pre-nup? Madge, babe, what the hell? Were you hoping to get your hands on some of that "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels" money? I know it's not romantic, but all celebrity marriages should be required to have prenuptial agreements.

If you're wondering what could have happened to the happy couple to make their love take a "Holiday" (bad song pun alert!), go no further than Famecrawler, which has an enormous pile of items about Material Marital Strife. Ah well. Sorry Madge. Hope it all works out for the best.
