Madonna divorce on docket

TLONDON—A judge will likely grant Madonna and Guy Ritchie an initial divorce decree today, according to the schedule for London’s High Court.

The court lists “Ciccone M L v Ritchie G S” as one of 17 cases for “matrimonial and civil partnership causes for pronouncement of decree.” That means a judge is to grant the couple a preliminary divorce decree, or decree nisi.

After six weeks and a day, the couple will probably be granted a decree absolute and the divorce will become final.

It is unusual for the couple to attend court in such cases.

British media reported Thursday that the celebrity pair had reached a settlement which would see the pop superstar keep the majority of her estimated 300 million pound ($445 million) fortune and share custody of two of her children with her film-director husband.

A report in the Evening Standard newspaper said Ritchie had refused to take any of Madonna’s assets, while the Times of London said Madonna would hold on to the bulk of her fortune.
