I agree. It doesn't seem this should be happening. She's the person he went back to, and then married, after his ill-advised fling with Meg Ryan. It seems someone got stubborn on some point and wouldn't budge. But wouldn't it be worth it for one or the other to give a little for the sake of the children?

Is it possible for any couple to have a successful marriage, in the last month theirs about 3 separations/divorces. Why do these people even bother to get married, the divorce rate on average is 52 percent, in celebrity marriages it has to be more like 75 percent. I wonder would you or anyone else take a plane if you knew the chances of crashing were 52 percent? How about 75 percent, what is wrong with marriages these days? The attitude seems to be "if you don't like marriage you can always get a divorce" what ever happened to "trying to work things out, till death do us part, in sickness and health, to love and to cherish.

I'm sorry for Russell Crowe and his wife, I'm sorrier for their 2 beautiful children.
