Christina Aguilera Calls It Quits After Five Years Of Bliss?


Divorce is common, especially in Hollywood. So it was no real surprise when Christina Aguilera announced she was divorcing her husband of five years. Her husband, music executive Jordan Bratman, will likely take the divorce like a man, sans the pain in his wallet experienced by the "typical man."

PEOPLE, published the reasons why Christina sought the divorce. In essence, it is the same old she believes it will benefit her family in the end. "Things were so unhealthy and unhappy for both Jordan and me, I knew I had to end it." said Aguilera. And what about their two-year-old son, Max? "When you're unhappy in your marriage, your children are the ones who suffer," she says. "That's the last thing I wanted for my son." Come on Christina, can't you come up with a more original line? This is text book 101 reason to explain why you are divorcing.


Why not share the real reason for the split or come right out and deny the speculation that you are involved with Matthew Rutler? Divorce is bitter sweet and some times vicious. While dissolution of marriage stimulates the legal economy, for once it would be refreshing for someone to come out publicly as to the real reason that they are seeking a dissolution.

Alcohol consumption won't save a marriage. Unfortunately, when times get tough, the tough get going... out to the bars. If there was any hope in saving the relationship before the drinking, it soon evaporates in a drunken fog.

Legal Pub has an article on Four Loko, a super charged alcohol drink popular among young adults. LINK. It is worth your time to review the article. If your kids are binge drinking, get them help. If you are drinking and driving or simply drinking too much, get help for your self.

Keep in mind, "married men don't live longer, it just seems that way... "

that is really true if it's a bad marriage.
