Alex Rodriguez and Cynthia Rodriquez have ended their divorce battle. A-Rod’s attorney, Alan Klug, released the following statement:

"Cynthia and Alex Rodriguez have amicably resolved their dissolution of marriage proceedings."

"They deliberately engaged in a private negotiation. This was and remains a personal family matter for both of them."

"All of their decisions were based upon and guided by the best interests of their daughters."

Cynthia was ready to go to war in court, but A-Rod and Cynthia had a prenuptial agreement, which was obviously air-tight. Prenups can end the uncessary drama before it starts, which is best for the children.

Phil Collins (57) is the latest husband to be financially raped in a divorce. Phil’s ex-wife, Orianne Cevey (35), was paid $46.76 million in the divorce settlement, which beats gold digger Heather Mills by about $2 million. The divorce settlement is the biggest ever in Britain.

The former couple were married only six years, and had two children together.

Phil should have been smarter and signed a prenuptial agreement. He’s paid out more than $84 million in support in two other divorces over the years. Phil’s second wife Jill Tavelman received $34 million after he ended their relationship by fax in 1994. Phil has had children with each of his wives.

Emily Robison, the brunette from the Dixie Chicks, and Charlie Robison have completed their divorce. The former couple have three children together, and were married in 1999. The divorce was originally filed in January 2008.

The divorce filing states their marriage had "become insupportable because of discord or conflict of personalities."

Charlie probably just couldn’t stand listening to Emily’s anti-American rants anymore, but their kids still have to.

Britney Spears Agrees to Sole Custody for Kevin Federline

Britney Spears Agrees to Sole Custody for Kevin Federline

Mark Vincent Kaplan said tonight that Britney Spears and Kevin Federline have reached a settlement in their custody case.

According to the agreement signed by all parties, Federline gets sole legal and physical custody of sons Sean Preston and Jayden James, and Spears will have visitation rights. Kaplan said:

"The case has been settled. The court still has to approve it."

"As of this evening there is a fully executed deal memo. All the issues that would have been addressed at trial have been settled. Can’t speak to the exact terms of the deal. Orders in place will stay in place."

"Kevin was not [out] to get custody. Kevins goal was to set up some kind of template so the mother of his children can co-parent. He said I need to have Britney to be involved in the coparenting of the kids, but I need there to be a structure."

"Nobody could have anticipated the terms of events that have occurred. This was a two-year journey that will be halted at a point that is good for these children. Custody is always modifiable. If there is a final order, it means there is nothing to try." [As in no need for a divorce trial.]

Both parties are due in court Friday morning to get the court’s stamp of approval for the deal.

At the end of the month the court will determine if the conservatorship, managed by Britney’s father Jamie Spears, will end or become permanent. Speaking to that issue Kaplan said:

"While I can’t tell you the terms, the order does anticipate what happens if the conservatorship is ended. The devil is always in the details and this is a very detailed deal memo."

"Nobody can predict what the future will bring, but to the extent possible I think we have really anticipated how to proceed."

This seems like it turned out in the best interest of the children. Despite all the criticism, it turned out that K-Fed was a better dad than Britney was a mom, and that’s not saying much.
