LOS ANGELES (Dec. 27) - Brendan Fraser and his wife, Afton, are ending their 9-year marriage.

"They continue to maintain a close and caring friendship," the actor's publicist, Ina Treciokas, said Wednesday in a statement.

The couple wed in 1998 and have three children.

Fraser, 39, has starred in the "Mummy" films, "Gods and Monsters" and "George of the Jungle."

Is the "Irreconciliable differences" the code for " I found a younger model and it is irreconcialiably different than my current old wife?"

I remember meeting Carlos Santanta and his wife at her natural food restaurant arond the corner from Castro Street in San Francisco long time ago, I remember Carlos and a group of friends playing the bongos at Dolores Park, I remember how cool their relationship was. Now this is just so sad. And what about the Rock's marriage? I thought that was a marriage to last as weel as Brendan's. So sad, On the other hand hope I meet the Rock one of these days for sure!

WOW.....out of all of the marriage breakups I've read about, this one surprises me. I remember seeing an interview with Brendan Frasier when his wife was pregnant, and he was talking about how beautiful she was while pregnant, etc. His costars were talking about what a mush he was with his wife.

I guess you just never know.

I just love when uneducated neanderthals deem fit to speak down to and attack me, use foul language and get all defensive when they don't agree with a reasonable, educated and logical comment I might make. Doesn't everone?

That's a shame. I always like Brendan and thought the way he proposed was sweet. I hope they stay friends and things work out for the best.

Have the kids first? Why in the world would you want to share biology - a permanent link - to someone you don't love first before children? I think the horse before the carriage is dwindling down anyway. Ask anybody who fights with an ex-lover over children when they themselves have found Mr or Miss Right. People need to take more time to get to know one another before they marry. That and understand that marriage, or children, fixes nothing. People are who they are.

i think that it is ashame that people take their marriage vows seriously. When some of them start having problems the first thing that they want to do is seperate or get a divorce.

Who gives a rats ass!

Kind of shocked that Santana's wife could tolerate his "rock star" life for so long and then 34 years later agree to divorce. What a bummer!

webguyster 11:24:00 AM Dec 29 2007

All these people have been cheating. Rarelt does anyone file for divorce and a lonely life, without finding somone new first. Why bother getting married, it is not a religious institution anymore. I am glad these people suffer, because they have so much more than others, that maybe this will awaken them to a little pain most people feel or dont realize they feel.

azthairub 11:24:00 AM Dec 29 2007

50% of all the marriage ended up in divorce anyway..What is the point? Do what the people do these days..Have the kids first, make sure you love each other, then marry..
