Looks like the rumors were unfortunately true: Hollywood power couple Heidi Klum and Seal are ending their marriage. They made the following statement on Sunday:

“While we have enjoyed seven very loving, loyal and happy years of marriage, after much soul-searching we have decided to separate.

“We have had the deepest respect for one another throughout our relationship and continue to love each other very much, but we have grown apart. This is an amicable process and protecting the well-being of our children remains our top priority, especially during this time of transition.

“We thank our family, friends, and fans for their kind words of support. And for our children’s sake, we appreciate you respecting our privacy.”

It’s a very civilized statement, but the current buzz is that Klum just can’t deal with Seal’s bad temper anymore, especially its effects on their children, Leni (7), Henry (6), Johan (5) and Lou (2).  Other sources say that she’s tired of all the partying he does while he’s on tour.  And then again, there’s always that pesky little seven year itch…

The couple were known for renewing their wedding vows each year on their anniversary.  They had just done so in May 2011, in Palm Beach, Florida.

Despite rumors that Katy Perry wanted Russell Brand to be the one to file for divorce, the singer is telling friends that she is “devastated” that their marriage is ending. 

HollywoodLife.com says Perry “still loves” Brand and is in a bit of shock.  Their sources say:

“Katy never thought in a million years that she would get divorced, she really planned to spend her life with Russell.  She is grieving her marriage and is at a point in her life where she doesn’t know what’s next.

[She] still can’t believe that it’s over.  She knew things were bad but she figured they’d work through it. Katy has been going through a bunch of emotions and she’s really leaning on her friends right now. She’s not herself.”

Other reports claim that Brand’s clean living lifestyle – he’s a recovered addict – became a problem for Perry, who “loved to party.”

“Sadly, Katy and I are ending our marriage.  I’ll always adore her and I know we’ll remain friends.”

Brand and Perry were married in India in October 2010.

Sinead O’Connor and Barry Herridge have already called it quits – just days after their Las Vegas wedding at the beginning of December.

The 45 year-old singer revealed her split from Herridge on her website and told a British publication she realized it was doomed shortly after exchanging vows.

“It felt like I was living in a coffin. It was going to be a coffin for both of us and I saw him crushed,” O’Connor told The Sun. “The whole reason I ended it was out of respect and love for the man.”

Among the problems that came to light for the couple was that O’Connor took her newlywed husband to buy weed – and he’s a drug counselor.

“We ended up in a cab in some place that was quite dangerous. I wasn’t scared — but he’s a drugs counselor. What was I thinking?” she said. “Then I was handed a load of crack. Barry was very frightened — that kind of messed everything up a bit really.”

The “Nothing Compares 2 U” singer decided she needed to end the union to the 38 year-old, which took place on December 8th at the Little White Wedding Chapel.

“The whole reason I ended it was out of respect and love for the man,” O’Connor said.

O’Connor also said she won’t marry again and that she doesn’t think she “will even date anyone” else now.

This was the fourth marriage for Sinead.

Kim Kardashian has decided to cut her Australian promotional tour short and flee Down Under because she’s having a hard time dealing with the stress and questions surrounding her decision to file for divorce just 72 days after marrying Kris Humphries.

The 31 year-old reality star was lined up for an appearance at an Australian horse racing event and a visit to Melbourne Cup Carnival for Swisse vitamins marquee on Saturday for which she was reportedly expected to make more than $150,000.

Kim, who did make an appearance in Sydney at the Westfield Miranda shopping center with her sister and brother-in-law Lamar Odom and Khloe Kardashian-Odom, said although she wasn’t able to make Saturday’s appearance, she wants to come back.

“I’m very disappointed that I am unable to attend the Swisse marquee but I hope to come back and work with the Swisse team at another point in time,” Us Weekly reports.

In the one interview she did give with Sydney’s Sunrise show, Kim said the rumors of money grubbing is what’s bothering her the most.

“I think what really just, I think, upsets me most is that there has been from the start so many rumors of money and dollar signs all these things thrown up in the air… and so much of it not being true,” Kardashian said.

“It’s kind of what you get from living your life so publicly on a reality show. I get that,” she claimed.

The New Girl will be going solo.

Zooey Deschanel and her husband, Ben Gibbard have announced they are splitting up.

Dechanel, 31, and Gibbard, 35, met 3 years ago when their mutual music manager set them up together. (Zooey is in the group She & Him and Ben fronts Death Cab for Cutie.)

The pair subsequently married in Seattle, Washington in 2009.

A source says the separation isn’t messy.

“It was mutual and amicable,” the source shared. “There was no third party involved.”

People magazine reports that a divorce is on the horizon and this does not appear to be a trial separation.

Skeptics aren’t buying the fact that Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries televised wedding and subsequent 72 day marriage wasn’t a publicity ploy and that angers Kim.

Kardashian, who filed for divorce from Humphries on Monday, tries to set the record straight for all the Doubting Thomas’ that her wedding was not a sham just for television.

“First and foremost, I married for love,” she wrote on her blog. “I can’t believe I even have to defend this. I would not have spent so much time on something just for a TV show!”

Kim further states that she did not make money off her nuptials and that all the gifts will be given to charity.

“There are also reports that I made millions of dollars off of the wedding. These reports are simply not true and it makes me so sad to have to even clarify this. I’m so grateful to everyone who took the time to come to my wedding and I’ll be donating the money for all the gifts to the Dream Foundation.”

So I guess she didn’t sell the rights to the photos of her wedding for millions or the licensing deal with E! to televise it for millions? She gave it away for free?

Kardashian chalks up the whole experience to “getting caught up with the hoopla” and says she is a “hopeless romantic.”

This is Kim’s second marriage. Her first, when she was just 19, was to record producer Damon Thomas and lasted 4 years.
