    That’s why you should never talk too much about your relationship or marriage in the media. It’s the kiss of death and you are cursed. Melissa would go on about how great her marriage and partner was and look what happened.
    Just keep your mouth shut!

    Dude, they’ve been split up for quite awhile I believe, they’ve kept houses side-by-side so the kids can live at either house depending on the day.

    I think Malissa was talking about this when her last album came out. It was a quite amicable split I believe.

    You are SO RIGHT! As soon as I see somebody like Jennifer Love Hewitt going on the “I have a boyfriend” tour I pretty much think “Well thats the end of that relationship.”
