Donald Trump Jr.'s wife, Vanessa Trump, files for divorce

NEW YORK — Donald Trump Jr. and his wife, Vanessa Trump, may be getting divorced.

A public court record filed Thursday in New York says Vanessa Trump is seeking an uncontested divorce from the president's son. Details of the divorce complaint haven't been made public.

The couple married in 2005 and have five children.

The Trump Organization hasn't responded to an emailed request for comment.

Especially when it starts like this:

Vanessa told The New York Times in 2006 that Donald Trump had introduced her to his son at a fashion show twice within five minutes. The pair did not hit it off during the awkward interactions.

Six weeks later, they met again at a mutual friend's party. They didn't recognize each other until after an hour-long conversation.

"Then suddenly, something clicked: Wait, you were at that fashion show. Wait, you're 'the one with the retarded dad!' Vanessa blurted out," The Times reported.

She is apparently a low-key and private person, and he is involved in more and more scandals.  Sad, but not surprising.

Wonder what the odds are on the world respecting her for this and not being all over this personal story. Probably zero.

Problem is, she will get dragged in because he is an attention-seeking POS and his dad far more so.  She is collateral damage.

that's unfortunate.  Being in the limelight and under constant attack is really tough on a relationship.

So is being a clueless douchecanoe.

Of couse it has NOTHING TO DO  with the fact that it happened the EXACT SAME DAY an independent counsel  supoenaded  the family business and assets can be quickly transferred when a couple files for an uncontested divorce.

I imagine her business dealings and finances will be watched like a hawk. You are not the first person to suspect trump assets being transfered to the divorving wife. Some folks smell rats.

Page six did mention the assets, but their angle was she was wanting to save her portion of it.

Rats smell like sandalwood. Female rats smell like grape soda.

(Just thought I'd mention it)

And Binturongs, or bearcats, smell like buttered popcorn.

Trump Jr. would definitely shoot that thing.

Might as well shoot it. He doesn't want his kids to have it. It's a lesson about socialism.

I'm sorry for the five kids, it will be hardest on them.

Not surprised it happened, though, between the circus around the family, plus Don Sr did not model how a good husband behaves to his kids.

Those people need to be better at architecting their marriages.

Actually...40/50 % of American marriages end in divorce...so it seems this couple..famous, well off or not..is just part of the norm ...

From what I'm reading this could be a ploy to transfer assets out of harm's way. It's certainly not unthinkable but also not anything close to an absolute. Personally, I don't much care. They can do what they like with their lives.
