As I understand it, he really wanted to have children and she wasn’t ready yet. It seems like one of those things they should have talked about before getting married.

And then you have Arnold Schwartznegger and Maria Shriver. Until he became governor of CA, she was famous in her own right for being a network news reporter and a Kennedy. Of course she’s obviously not too much of an egomaniac- she did quit her job with NBC (I think) to support her husband’s career in government. And then you have Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward, both successful actors who have been married (to each other!) since 1958.
As for the Brad/Jen split: I think it’s sad when any marriage fails. That said, sometimes a separation is just that, the couple works it out, and goes on stronger than ever. We could pray that they reconcile and become one of those rare long, happy Hollywood marriages.

I picked the third choice even though I do know who they are. Though I do not like to see anyone hurt or suffering, I lost interest in Hollywood gossip when I gave up my television. I still take a glance now and then in the secular newspaper I subscribe to, but I may be replacing that with Catholic newpapers and/or magazines soon. I can always come to the library (the main place I get internet access) to read secular newspapers.

I think what is most interesting about this poll/thread is some of the nasty reactions some of the posters have left about the poll or thread. Hey, if it really didn’t interest you, you wouldn’t have clicked on it.
As for the subject matter, my thoughts are this.
The Jen/Brad story is a sad commentary on the greater picture of how the secular world views marraige and family. It is also a sad commentary about us all, but especially for those who don’t have a or practice the sacramental life.
Maybe they did have the same idea in the beginning - but things change and people want children later. It isn’t right to end it all though. I only heard they separated too, not divorced. There is hope for a reconciliation perhaps.
We should all pray for marraiges after you click on this poll. Yesterday, a good friend of mine told me her and her husband were separating. He has been a protestant minister for nearly 15 years. Terribly tragic.

That was my reaction also … I am really sad that this forum has some very nasty remarks coming from individuals who are supposedly “christian”.I think what is most interesting about this poll/thread is some of the nasty reactions some of the posters have left about the poll or thread. Hey, if it really didn’t interest you, you wouldn’t have clicked on it.
I started the thread … and my feeling is that we should pray for all couples … no matter who they are. It makes me very sad to read some of the thread remarks. It is so sad.
Have a Blessed Day - everyone.

From my understanding, they had agreed to start a family after “Friends” was over. That came and went but now Jennifer is into movies big time.
Someone made a comment that two egomaniacs are going to have trouble making a marriage work. That is right on (and not just for Hollywood stars).

I just happened to be channel surfing last night and came across an “entertainment news” show talking about this very issue.

You had that choice. But you chose to come onto the thread anyway. Why?

Joanne Woodward went into the slow lane of acting after she and Paul had kids her acting roles almost disappeared she appears sparingly since her heyday. Not a good example if your dissapears we are talking about 2 people who continue their careers full fledge.
Maria Shriver ok you got one. She’s done it right but remeber she had a part time gig after she had kids at dateline she’s never work haggard like these hollywood types. She’s content being #2 to Ahnold. She done it right and there are thousands in Hollywood that have done it wrong. You have thousands doing wrong and 1 done right not to impressive Hollywood. Shriver is a liberal catholic but hey she got something right. Your husband and your kids are more important than your career.

I voted, “Brad & Jen Who?” because there was no “Who cares?” choice. Marriage takes alot of work for both involved. It must be a priority for both as well. In Hollywood, it’s all about ME so that’s a big strike against you . The bigger news should be of the couples in Hollywood who make it to 10 years or more! Having said that, it is sad when anyone chooses divorce, so I WILL PRAY for them as I would for anyone else famous or not who I hear is considering a divorce.

I don’t see why it’s such a big deal. Break-ups occur every day in Hollywood.

I understood why you started this thread. I am sorry that there are so many negative reactions to something that you just wanted to discuss.
I think that divorce is sad in any situation. I too am glad that they did not have any children. Hopefully this thread can discuss what you intended instead of being so negative.
When I came to this sight, I thought “finally I will be able to discuss my religion and some questions that I may have.” But instead I see a lot of negative people responding. I feel that if you dont like the thread, then go onto something that you do. Is this wrong? I dont know. I do come on this sight and try to discuss things that I have an interest to. If I dont like it, I go onto another topic.
God bless all of you,

I was wondering what “kind” of wedding they had. Was it a JP?
Did they use the words:
Till Death do us part
For better or for worse
If they didn’t, then they were never married at all (in the eyes of God). If they did then as Ricky Ricardo use to say “they have some splainin to do”.
I think the travesty is that people really consider these marriages marriages.
