Guy Ritchie To The Rescue

Maddy & Hubby now in the same city
July 1st, 2008

At last, Guy Ritchie has made his way across the pond and made his way to his wife Madonna’s doorstep. After weeks of break-up/divorce rumors of varying degree, it appears that either A.) Madonna has ordered her husband to fly to her side in order to help down play those rumors (whether they be true or not), B.) Guy decided it would be best to be seen with his family in order to try and help cool the divorce rumors (or to prove a commitment to his marriage) or C.) Husband and wife are spending time together as a break in their work schedules allow, having absolutely nothing at all do with extraneous discussion about the state of their wedded bliss. While I wish that C were the answer, the rumor mill is pushing things towards answers A or B (ie. if the rumors are to believed, it’s unclear which of the two parties is more interested in keeping things together or, at the very least, wants to keep up appearances that the couple are still happily together). As with all divorce speculation, there really isn’t a way to accurately determine what is going on — especially when new rumors are springing up each day, like US Weekly’s assertion that Madge has been “hanging out” with Alex Rodriguez of the New York Yankees — that is, until an official statement either way is released from the couple … a practice that the Ciconne-Ritchies are well versed in. Here are a couple pics of Guy’s arrival at JFK aiport from London and his arrival at Madonna’s NYC apartment building:


Guy Ritchie arrived in New York from London Monday evening amid reports of trouble in his marriage to Madonna, who is in the Big Apple rehearsing for an upcoming tour. Around 6:30 p.m. the director, who was accompanied by two bodyguards, entered the Upper West Side building where he and Madonna own an apartment. Rumors that their seven-year marriage is in trouble have been circulating for some time. Adding fuel to the talk, Ritchie, 39, and Madonna, 49, spent the weekend apart – she with their three children in New York, and him in London. Neither of them wore wedding bands. Madonna’s spokesperson, Liz Rosenberg, said, “Madonna has rarely worn a wedding band over these last six years, so there’s no secret message about that.”

And now, the A-Rod rumor: Us Weekly reports in its new issue, on newsstands tomorrow, that Madonna’s seven-year marriage to Guy Ritchie has stalled out – and the singer has been hosting late-night visits from New York Yankee Alex Rodriguez at her Central Park West apartment in New York City. A ringless and grim-faced Ritchie, 39, arrived in New York City from London yesterday after several weeks apart from his family. A source tells Us that the $28-million-a-year Rodriguez, 32, has made numerous solo nighttime visits to Madonna, 49, at her spacious home and would sneak out “as late as midnight.” Says the source, “All the doormen are talking.” Rodriguez attended Madonna’s April 30 NYC concert; the singer sat in his seats at a Yankees game on June 22 (it was the first time she ever was photographed at a Yankees game). Her son Rocco, 7, also sported Yankees gear on June 25 while playing in Central Park … Madonna has been in NYC since the venerable Times of London confirmed that she consulted the same high-profile divorce attorney who worked with Paul McCartney and Prince Charles. Meanwhile, Us confirms Ritchie has also sought legal advice from Forsters law firm in London.

To be honest, I’m surprised this rumor about Madonna creepin’ around with A-Rod didn’t spring up sooner … it usually doesn’t take this long for break-up rumors to start introducing third parties into the mix. At least it’s a positive sign that Guy and Madonna are now in the same country … same city, even! No matter what is going on between them (if anything at all) I think it is a step in the right direction that they have been reunited. It prolly won’t be long until we see pics of the two of them together in public, maybe at a romantic dinner, maybe with the kids at play. It’s funny how even if things are totally fine in a relationship between celebs they have to still go about making sure that it still appears that things are totally fine.

    I hope they can figure their marriage out…………and frankly just because a person is not wearing a wedding ring doesn’t mean they are not committed to their marriage. I have been married 16 years and neither my hubby or I wear our rings………I am not a “jewelry” person and neither is he………in fact, I don’t think we have wore rings since before year 10………LOL……..;-)

    Forget Guy, I want to know more about the dark-haired bodyguard hottie with the “frat-tat”.

    On topic: If Madonna is banging the very married A-Rod she is being extremely shady.
