I know a lot of people are happy to see this divorce actually go through and most from the very beginning of their relationship thought it would happen. But honestly I’m a little saddened to hear they are divorcing. I was really hoping the two of them could work it out especially once she went to rehab and he really stepped up. Divorce is sad and I just picture those two little boys, too bad. I may catch flack for my opinion b/c I know you can stay together just for kids but I just had really hoped those two could work it out =(
