In a twist worthy of daytime television, Anthony LaPaglia’s wife, Alexandra Henkel, has filed for divorce after seven years of marriage. Citing“irreconcilable differences”and separating on September 11, this couple is trading in their wedding vows for a court date. Maybe next time, Anthony might think twice about jumping the broom—or at least check if his future ex is planning a stylish exit, including a Rolex.
With Alexandra throwing in a request for spousal support, it’s clear she’s not walking away empty-handed. Interestingly, she’s aiming to ensure LaPaglia won’t get any support from the court either. Now that’s what I call a negotiation strategy; why not take the jewelry and the house, right? A marriage without kids means no messy custody battles, so at least there’s that silver lining—if only every Hollywood couple could say the same.
The news hits close to home for fans of LaPaglia, who starred in the hit series“Without a Trace.”After three divorces, one can’t help but wonder if he might consider a crash course in marital success—perhaps even a DIY guide on maintaining a Hollywood marriage. What’s more shocking—his latest split or the fact that this is his third time at the divorce rodeo? Let’s chat—what’s your take on celebrity marriages?
