BBC News: Pop star Madonna and her husband Guy Ritchie are to divorce after nearly eight years of marriage, their PR representatives have confirmed.

Relations were still cordial and they expected to agree a settlement without going to court, added Madonna's spokeswoman, Liz Rosenberg.

The statement followed several months of speculation that the couple's relationship was in trouble.

In July, the singer's publicist said the marriage did not "need saving".

The pair appeared together at last month's premiere of Ritchie's RocknRolla in London, walking arm-in-arm and posing for photographs in London's Leicester Square.

Financial settlement

Ritchie, 40, had rebutted suggestions his marriage was over with a public show of support at Madonna's 50th birthday party in August and also told a US magazine in July the marriage was "fine".

The statement issued on Wednesday read: "Madonna and Guy Ritchie have agreed to divorce after seven and a half years of marriage, their representatives confirmed today.

I am not surprise about that. Most artist are really weird not weird kay sila mga pakno, but they have weird minds, whats all in their head is their music and the rest they dont care much. I will predict ang sunod Mariah Carey...
