Sean files for divorce


Another day and another celebrity couple call it a day.
This time it's Oscar-winning actor Sean Penn who has filed for divorce from his wife Robin Wright Penn.
It's not the first time the couple have called time on their marriage. Back in 2007 Sean sought a legal separation from the actress but the couple later decided to give their marriage a second chance.
The pair tied the knot in 1996 and have two children Hopper Jack, 15, and 17-year-old Dylan Frances.
Sean and Robin's last public outing was in February when they attended the Oscars.
Sean picked up the Best Actor award on the night for his role in Milk.
However, when collecting his award he failed to thank his wife - which can't have helped.
Later when asked why he omitted his partner from his list of thank yous he said: "I wanted to keep things focused on the professional team around this movie.
"Because with Robin comes my mother and my son and my daughter, and half of them will punish me if I mention them."
Perhaps, a mention would have helped. Anyway, it will be interesting to see if the pair actually sign on the dotted line this time.
