Madonna consults divorce lawyer
Wednesday 25 June 2008
It looks like Madonna is going firmly ahead with her plan to divorce Guy Ritchie after their seven year marriage has hit the rocks.
The music icon is reported to have consulted lawyer Fiona Shackleton, who represented Paul McCartney during his divorce proceedings and famously ended up with wet hair after an outraged Heather Mills poured a jug of water over her.
Madonna had talks with Ms Shackleton back in April and is determined to hire the tough divorce lawyer if the couple are indeed going to file for divorce.
Ms Shackleton has earned herself the nickname “Steel Magnolia” due to her success in two of the highest profile divorce cases – Charles vs Diana, and the McCartney court battle.
And while friends of the Ritchies still hope there might be a last ditch reconciliation on the cards, Madonna – always the perfectionist- seems to be preparing herself for the worst case scenario – after all, there is no prenup…

RE: Madonna consults divorce lawyer
I feel sorry for Guy Ritchie,he seems a very genuine down to earth sort of person,i am surprised he has put up with madge's diva lifestyle for so long!
if she had put more into her marriage than she does with her career maybe they wouldn't be getting a divorce,i feel for the kids in this situation,what's their adopted child supposed to think now?
