Mel Gibson’s wife Robyn has filed for divorce after 28 years of marriage. In the papers, signed Apr. 9 Robyn cites “irreconcilable differences.” Throughout our marriage and separation we have always strived to maintain the privacy and integrity of our family and will continue to do so,” a rep for Gibson, 53, says in a statement.”
TMZ.com alleges that “there is no prenuptial agreement” based on source reporting. In 2006, Gibson’s fortune was estimated at $900 million. Under California law, community property — which includes earnings — is divided 50/50.
Robyn, who has seven children with Gibson, has requested spousal support and attorneys’ fees.
She is also seeking joint physical and legal custody of their son, Tom, who turns 10 Tuesday. (Tom is their only child who is a minor.)
Robyn has snapped up attorney Laura Wasser, who most recently represented Britney Spears in her split from Kevin Federline. The couple has ignored split rumors for some time. Gibson was recently photographed with a woman who did not appear to be his wife in Costa Rica on March 4.
