Earle Lilly, the divorce attorney for Cynthia Rodriguez, is now backing off a bit on his claim that Alex Rodriguez and Madonna had an affair. Lilly clarified:

"The correct analysis is a relationship," he says. "Some people categorize an affair as something as sexual infidelity. We’re not claiming that. It’s an affair of the heart. We don’t want the public to think this is an aggressive action against Madonna."

Lilly had to clarify the message from his client, or Madonna would have certainly filed a libel and defamation lawsuit.

While Madonna has her name dragged through the mud by an angry wife, Madonna’s angry, and estranged, brother Christopher Ciccone just published an unauthorized biography about his sister.

Madonna’s brother alleges in his book:

• Madonna’s drug use with leading showbiz executives will be unveiled.
• He’ll tell all about Madge’s rocky marriage to Hollywood actor Sean Penn and spill the beans about her blow ups with current husband Guy Ritchie.
• Madonna flirted with pal Gwyneth Paltrow at a glamorous New Year’s party thrown by fashion designer Donatella Versace. While the two were dancing on a table at 4am, Madge grabbed Gwynnie and fully kissed her on the mouth. Partygoers watched stunned and amazed.
• Homesick Madonna is supposedly desperate to return permanently to New York. But Guy is said to want to remain in London, seeing it as a better home for their three kids.

A source says:

"The book is a warts-and-all account. Chris was there for all the key moments in Madonna’s life. There is no-one better placed to tell the real story behind Madonna’s public image."

Juicy.

Cynthia Rodriguez has hired Houston lawyer Earle Lilly to end her marriage to Alex Rodriguez, according to WABC in New York. Earle said Cynthia will file suit tomorrow morning in Dade County Florida Family Court, and that A-Rod’s "relationship with Madonna was the final straw for Mrs. Rodriguez." You read that correctly, Cynthia believes the rumor that says A-Rod was having an affair with Madonna, or at the very least she’s using that as an excuse to divorce A-Rod. A source said:

"Cynthia has left Alex. Let’s see if she goes for the divorce. He did make her sign a prenup."

Not only that, but let’s see if infidelity holds up in court. In most states cheating isn’t a divorcable offense, but it doesn’t encourage good will from the court either. Another source said:

"The embarrassment over Madonna was the last straw. She flew to Paris to get out of town before everything blew up between them. There is no affair with Lenny Kravitz. They are good friends.’"

Oh realllllly. Well if Cynthia believes the rumor of an affair between her husband and Madonna, then why shouldn’t we believe the affair rumor between Cynthia and Kravitz? It’s only fair.

Cynthia also claims Alex got hooked on Kabbalah thanks to Madonna, and now he’s brainwashed. Cynthia is making so many claims, it seems she’s trying to cover up her own bad deeds, but her divorce filing reveals her real motive … money.
