In not surprising celebrity divorce news, we hear that Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher are over.  Moore, 48, has reportedly consulted with a divorce attorney amid allegations her 33 year old husband Ashton Kutcher cheated on her — and not for the first time.  The latest rumored affair involved a young blonde girl whom Ashton allegedly met in a San Diego club.

The famous couple, most well-known for their age difference (Moore is 15 years Kutcher’s senior), has reportedly not been living together for the last 3 months.  While recently seen together at a Los Angeles Kabbalah center, where we hear they were receiving couples counseling, it appears that any such efforts to revive the marriage are too late.

At stake in the couples divorce is $300 million — a large chunk of money, especially if the couple did not sign a prenup before tying the knot. Both Moore and Kutcher are successful actors, with Kutcher stepping in for Charlie Sheen on Two and a Half Men, so hopefully money is not an issue for them.

Do you love your pet?  Is your dog considered as much a part of your family as your husband (or wife)?  Or, rather, soon-to-be-ex husband (or wife). You are not alone.  Pet custody is becoming a huge issue in divorces throughout California and the country.

In fact, a tricky pet custody battle is underway in a court on the other coast. The dog’s owners (and divorcing ex-spouses) consider their dog to be like family, but the law sees pets as personal marital property, to be divided fairly in the divorce.   Therefore, the judge hearing the case is required to consider who actually owns the dog, who had to right to give him away, and who has the right to own him now.  This is tough because the man claims that his ex-wfie maliciously put the dog up for adoption without his knowledge or consent. His ex-wife admits that she did not inform her ex-husband of the adoption, but insists that it was not done maliciously. The dog has since been adopted by a couple with two other dogs, three cats and three children. The man is asking the court to decide that the adoption is void and to direct the dog returned to him. Yikes!

You can avoid a potential pet custody battle with a well-written prenuptial agreement.  If you bring a pet into the marriage, you can clearly state in your prenup that the animal will be yours in the event of a divorce or legal separation.  An experienced divorce or family law attorney can help walk you through the steps and make sure you and your favorite pet are protected.

As many married couples know all too well, one of the most common reason for divorce is infidelity.  Statistics range, but they consistently stay about the 50% mark — as in at least half of all men will cheat on their wives during their marriage.  Scary?  Yes.  But often these affairs can be avoided.

10 Signs that Your Man Is or Is Considering Cheating on You:

1. Detailed Stories – we all know most men like to use as few words as possible.  When your man starts weaving elaborate, detailed stories you better believe something is up and he’s either cheating or getting ready to cheat.
2. He Says or Acts Like He Feels Trapped – if your man wants more freedom, or constantly makes comments about the old ball and chain, it could mean that he feels trapped and wants to get out and explore his options outside of the relationship.
3. He ‘OKs’ Cheating – your husband or boyfriend used to look down on his friends who cheated.  If he starts to excuse their behavior, time to examine the relationship.
4. New Female Friends – very rarely can men and women just be friends.  If your man is starting to ‘befriend’ more females, chances are he is looking for a sympathetic ear, one that will feel his ego and might eventually lead to an extramarital affair.
5. What Girlfriend? – this is especially common in the boyfriend / girlfriend stage, as it is harder for a man to deny his wife’s existence to his friends.  But if your man isn’t introducing you to his friends or family, or stops taking you around, he’s probably trying to deny your existence. Yikes.
6. ‘It’s OK to Cheat’ – if your man is suddenly encouraging you to explore other possibilities or derailing the virtues of monogamy, he’s probably trying to get you ready for his own extramarital affair.
7. Porn – if you notice that your man is regularly frequenting XXX chat rooms or sites or even strip clubs, this is a big sign that he is not feeling satisfied.  Reasonable or not, you need to have a conversation about this.
8. Phone Numbers – we’ve all heard stories about women who find phone numbers in their husbands pockets… New numbers are a bad sign. See #4.

Celebrities understand the importance of a well-written prenuptial agreement.  A prenup is meant to protect both parties in the event of a divorce. Usually, a well-written prenup sets out important terms; such as division of finances, homes, cars, and monthly spousal support.  Of course, a prenup can also showcase many interesting demands, as seen by these well-known celebrities below.

Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom 

Should Khloe and Lamar divorce, their prenup states that Khloe will receive $500,000 for each year they’re married, $25,000 a month in spousal support, their house, a new car at the end of every lease cycle, $5,000 a month for shopping, $1,000 a month for beauty care, and season courtside Lakers tickets for her whole family.  Because if she’s no longer married to Lamar, there’s another Lakers player she might be interested in…

Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban

Should these two Aussies split, under the terms of their prenup, Keith will make about $640,000 for every year that he and Nicole were married. However, there is one exception: if Keith ever uses illegal drugs – he is a recovering addict – he won’t get a penny.

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes

Rumors about their prenup abound, but one thing we are pretty sure about: in the event of a divorce, Katie will receive $3,000,000 per year they were married, up to $33 million. But after 11 years, a Sunset Provision voids the agreement and Holmes could receive half of Cruise’s plentiful bounty.

Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones

Catherine and Michael’s prenup contains a very popular — especially among the celebrity set — ‘cheating clause.’ Should Michael ever be caught cheating, he owes Catherine $5 million.  And $2.8 million for each year they were married.

You don’t have to be a celebrity to have a prenup.  A prenup is a very smart contract that allows couples to calmly discuss important issues, such as finances, before their wedding day.  Contact the experienced family law attorneys at Foresight Legal Group today for more information on prenups.
