Before Brangelina: 9 Shocking Hollywood Splits (Photos)
The Brad Pitt-Angelina Jolie divorce news has shocked the Hollywood-obsessed public, but it’s not the first explosive celebrity split.
Amidst allegations of domestic violence and a very public contentious battle, Depp and Heard finalized their divorce just a little over a year after they first got married.
During one memorable post-split talk show appearance, Kidman quipped, “I can wear heels now,” referencing their noticeable height difference.
Personifying the ugly Hollywood divorce, leaked e-mails and text messages and allegations of abuse and addiction plagued this divorce, which happened just three years after they married.
A nasty custody battle between the “Marrying Man” co-stars culminated in a leaked voicemail where Baldwin was heard calling their daughter a “rude little pig.”
Though they were never married, when paparazzi caught Stewart cheating on her “Twilight” co-star with a married director, it was the scandal of the summer, and led the press-shy actress to publicly acknowledge their relationship for the first time, in a statement begging Pattinson for forgiveness published in People magazine.
The politically active couple were together for more than 20 years and never married, but their split in 2009 still sent shockwaves throughout Hollywood and the tabloid-reading public.
