    Marcia Gay Harden Files For Divorce

    Marcia Gay Harden and husband Thaddaeus Scheel are calling it quits after 15 years together.

    "For the sake of the couple's three children, Harden would like to request that the family's privacy be respected at this time," the actress' rep said in a statement to People. "No further comments will be made on this matter, and we thank you for your understanding."

    The 52-year-old actress and Scheel have three kids, 7-year-old twins - a boy and a girl - and also a 13-year-old daughter.

    The actress took home the Best Supporting Actress Oscar in 2001 for "Pollock," and won a Tony Award in 2009 for "God of Carnage."

      Why do they release statements asking that their privacy be respected? We wouldn't even know about it if they didn't appear on every tv show, talk show and magazine promoting their latest project that they want us to pay to see.

        Marriages, divorces and court appearances are public record, meaning anyone can go into a court house and pull up this info. Many tabloids have people checking these records on a weekly basis and stars may feel it is better to release the info themselves than have a tab get it and leak it with an incorrect spin.

        there has to be some leak for them to look it up! Can you imagine the exhaustion in court records office if they just sat there looking up random movie stars???

      Hey All most of you did not read before posting, This was not your "typical" Hollywood marriage... They had three kids, They were married for 15 years, She was a great actress - Ask Clint Eastwood who said that she is the finest actress that he ever worked with if the Oscar and Tony don't prove that, And they lived most of their life, "Out of the limelight." How do I know all this, I went to my Senior prom with Marcia Gay's sister, and we have been friends ever since... So THINK and READ BEFORE posting - otherwise millions will know that you are an idiot in this case...

        The meaning of the name Eulala is 'Spoken friendly'. A great name - and she has already won acclaim as a young actress... So it fits!

        Marcia was awarded the 2000 Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her portrayal of painter Lee Krasner in Pollock (2000). In 2003, she was again nominated in the same category for Mystic River.

      No one should stay together for the kids sake. Inever and my kids all came out good adults. And it is worse on the kids when your in a bad marriage. Iwish my Mother & Dad had got divorce. When your Dad or Mom is an alcoholic or drug addict. Some people are better off apart. Yes it would be nice in the real world if there were no divorces. But that will never be. Children or not. Sometimes in life things are not a fairytale. Thats life...

      If it was for the children they wouldn't get a divorce. Instead they would find a way to compromise and come up with a lasting solution. Oh, I'm sorry I thought this article was about Congress.
    • bobby  •  Houston, Texas  •  3 mths ago
      why do they really married in hollywood. Its not for relationships because most are divorced within a couple of years.
