A person said, “Tom and Nicole’s divorce will always be kinda sad to me because by all accounts they were absolutely crazy about each other, and Scientology basically drove them apart…she seems very happy with Keith Urban now, but I feel like Nicole is “the one who got away” from Tom. Nicole’s celebration pic is truly amazing though hahahha.“

One person simply stated, “Public Figure: Princess Diana and Prince Charles.”

Another person added, “Ooof, that one was iconic. Now the mistress is queen consort or something. I REALLY hope when William becomes king that he gives his mother a fancy title like he promised when he was a little boy.”

Denise Richards and Charlie Sheen

A user replied, “Denise Richards and Charlie Sheen, which was around the same time as party pal Heather Locklear and Richie Sambora. Denise and Richie got together for a pretty intense (balcony pics) but like 1year relationship. Also, it broke up Denise and Heather’s friendship.”

One reply was, “I was only a kid when Burt Reynolds and Loni Anderson split, but I still knew that divorce was awful because it was constantly on the news and every tabloid. It took them 22 years to divorce, and it was messsssss-y. Absolutely the mother of all divorces.”

Bethenny Frankel and Jason Hoppy

A person replied, “This would only be interesting to the housewives crowd, but Bethenny Frankel’s divorce with Jason Hoppy was UGLY. Took so many years & millions of dollars, not to mention her taking out a restraining order against him after he showed up at their daughter’s school to berate her.”

Woody Allen and Mia Farrow

One user said, “Woody Allen and Mia Farrow after Mia found naked pictures of her adopted daughter in Woody’s possession. He ended up marrying his own stepdaughter.”

A response was, “Alice Evans and Ioan Gruffudd, to this day, is the craziest, most real thing I ever followed online. I feel extra bad for the children.”

Another response was, “Yessss it’s crazy. I read stuff that said Alice was telling their kids that “they weren’t going to have a dad anymore” or “daddy doesn’t want to be your dad” or something like that, which is SO psychologically damaging to a small child. Also, apparently, Ioan’s new gf has multiple sclerosis and wanted to keep her diagnosis private. Still, Alice somehow found out about it and revealed it online and was making fun of her for it. Like what the f!!!”

Johnny Depp and Amber Heard

Finally, a user replied, “Nothing will top Johnny Depp and Amber Heard IMO. They had the trial live-streamed, lol. They’ll be forever tainted by that mess.”
