Madonna calls Ritchie a "gold-digger"

**MikeT** · 21st-October-2008

From Stuff.co.nz:

Madonna has branded Guy Ritchie a "gold-digger" despite his claims he wants "not one penny" of her reported £300 million fortune.

Friends of Madonna, 50, have dismissed Guy’s assertions he isn’t interested in her fortune, saying he is now only interested in getting her cash.

According to Britain’s The Sun newspaper, the 4 Minutes singer told a pal: "I'm totally devastated that Guy’s turned out to be such a gold-digger. I thought we’d been on a spiritual journey together for the past 10 years - but obviously I was wrong. He’s just after my money.

"I've worked my butt off for the last 30 years to get what I have, and now this gold-digger wants to take it from me. He keeps upping his demands - he just wants more, and more, and more from me. It’s unbelievable."
Reports have also surfaced claiming the former couple have a prenuptial agreement which denies the British director the right to the money Madonna has amassed during their near eight-year marriage.

The other major issue in the pair’s divorce is custody of the three children they raise together - Lourdes, 12, Rocco, eight and adopted David Banda, three.
RocknRolla director Guy, 40, has insisted on having full access to the children as part of the couple’s divorce settlement.
But despite reports last week claiming Madonna spent extended periods of time away from her kids, the pop superstar’s friends claim she is the "rock of the family".

The source added: "Guy has never contributed towards the running of the family and his son’s schooling. Contrary to the image being projected, Madonna’s been the rock of the family. She’s the one who has the kids with her at all times.

"They are home-schooled and they go on the road with her."
Guy’s spokespeople insist he is not a gold-digger and say he could claim much more of Madonna’s fortune than he is asking for.
The pair’s lawyers are still negotiating the terms of the divorce deal.

OK then, how does this compare with Sir Paul McCartney and that Heather woman?
It seems to me that is OK to call a man a gold-digger instead of face the truth and realise that the chances of this sort of divorce settlement is rather rare.
Umm, they have been married for 10 years, it should be a 50/50 split of the matromonial assets, just like it is when a woman files for divorce.
Simple, if you value your assets, don't get married, is it that hard to understand?

Suddenly the Independant woman with all the feminazi agitprop in tow wants to sing the MRA song. Hah!

**christianj** · 21st-October-2008

Fuck me, when the bitch has to pay it's different...

The hypocrisy escalates to new heights..

As stated before, if women ever has to pay it automatically becomes a different issue..

According to the UK Telegraph, she is worth upwards of 850 Million... us or uk??

Anyhow, funny how Mills used the tried and true 'poor abused woman' schtick to get at Sir Paul's money, and it worked.

Now Madonna is using the 'poor abused woman' schtick to keep a man FROM taken "her" money...

According to the UK Telegraph:

Lawyers for the singer, who was widely believed to be the dominant partner in the marriage, are putting together a dossier of incidents.

They include allegations that he told her she 'looked like a granny' on stage compared with her younger backing dancers. He is also alleged to have declared that she could not act, and was 'past it' after she turned 50.

Her lawyers say that 40-year-old Ritchie's comments made Madonna feel worthless, unattractive, unfeminine, insecure and isolated during their eight-year marriage.

The Mail has learned that Madonna's case will chronicle how she first fell for Ritchie because she felt he was a challenge and that he was tough enough to stand up to her.

However, she apparently soon started to become affected by her husband's alleged put- downs which eventually started to eat away at her legendary confidence.

Honestly? Just as I didn't think Mills 'deserved' any of Sir Paul's fortune, I don't think Ritchie 'deserves' any of Madonna's either. In both cases, the entertainer worked their butts off for many many years to amass that fortune. Being married to the individual for such a short period should never enable the ex to take a sizable chunk. It's not right.

I can agree with that. However until women stop fleecing men for all they have I will always root for the man in these cases. I hope he cleans the bint out.

**Marx** · 21st-October-2008

I'm with lolint above... If it's good for the goose, it's good for the gander. When feminists stop bringing about their hateful fleecing laws that screw men over, men won't be able to take advantage of them on rare occasions - and women won't be able to take advantage of them regularly.

It gets better. She did not have sex with Guy for 18 months before their Divorce. She was "Too Tired" working out 4 hours a day trying to stave off the effects of Aging. Women age faster than Men. Guy got disgusted went to the Pub and hung out with his Pals. She did not have Sex with her Husband. She has made her money selling her aging Sexuality. She is a Fraud. I wonder if she will be selling her Sexuality when she is in a Walker wearing Depends?

This is the greatest Scam and Circus entertainment in years. The Aging Boomer Skank Woman and Attention Whore, who was Frigid. And could not make Love to her Husband. She is emotionally cold and Narcissistic. She is in love with herself. That is her real problem. And the truth hurts. She slutted her way to the top of the music Industry. She used to pick up Men in NY while having Sex with Sandra Bernhard and doing lines of Coke in a Limo.

Then did some horrid movies, and truly horrific Acting if you could call it that. Her movies were entirely forgettable. And Women who saw her as a Feminist Icon worshipped her. LMAO what a Load of Bovine Excrement. Gullible idiot Women bought this nonsense. And Gay Men fawned all over her.

She wants a man she can push around and order around and then dispose of at her whim.

I hope that the case winds up with a fair settlement and that the kids get to see both parents freely.

The idea that Guy Ritchie would be after Madonna's money seems pretty ludicrious to me. This guy is a successful filmmaker in his own right. Clearly Madonna was using him to get movie roles, and his career has suffered for it. :P

Yes good points. In that business you are as good as your last movie. Possibly his career has been permanently harmed by his listening to her. Or not. It would be interesting to see if he starts having success again once this is past him.

**MadShangi** · 30th-October-2008

Well, I'm sure once he's rid of her, he'll start making good films again.

Very possible. If it happens you could make the case that he deserves more of her money as it was money he lost by being with her? I dunno divorce attorneys think of things like that and bill and bill accordingly.

**christianj** · 30th-October-2008

I am hoping that the judge will see past the hysterics and maybe make a critical decision to demonstrate the goose and gander scenario..

A bit like they did to that female that exposed hubby on youtube to manipulate her payout..
I do believe the judge stated that it was not a good thought out battle tactic as far as divorce courts were concerned..

One can live in hope the same applies here..
