Sneaky old man

One of these days I would like a list of prominent US media in order of reliability of their content.
It would help me a lot.

I usually scan other headlines on a site to see how sensational/wacky they seem to be and if it is a Murdoch publication I am already aware of the direction of bias.
 

I rarely glance at the local daily newspaper or watch the evening World News or CNN but instead I rely heavily on the Natl. Enquirer, The Star and The Globe for current events......if it's in one of those three it's gospel. :)

Unfortunately The NY Post is owned by Murdoch. As a former NYC resident I can attest to its vapidity and downright lies.
 
Who cares if it is a lie!? Maybe she was a goldigger and got a comeuppance! After alll, the thirty-one year age difference may have enhanced her romantic inclinations towards marriage...

And her twenty years of being a wife to him and a mother of his son?

He should have obtained a pre-nup, not a secret divorce just months after marrying her.
I wonder what happened to his first wife.
 
She probably lived in great style compared to what she might have lived had she not married him Maybe he learned his lesson with his first wife...
 
Isn't it interesting that she is called a goldigger and god forbid a woman can love an older man but nothing is said about this older man,who marrried a younger woman and not someone his own age and then did not have the balls to ask for a pre nup but went the 'sneaky ' way and got a divorce but now its her comeuponce? Not fair Ralphy.
 
I agree with you Warri, he should've gotten a pre-nup. Maybe he thought if he asked for one she wouldn't have married him?
 
Well, I doubt the validity of the report, because most places, here, anyway, you can't divorce someone without notice to them -- unless you jump through all kinds of legal hoops to prove you have exhausted all efforts and neither you, or legal authorities, can find them. Even then, the courts require you to publish notice anywhere the person's history indicates they might reasonably be.

If this did happen, and you could prove they knew or should have known where you were and/or falsified legal documents allegedly proving they couldn't find you, the court would set aside the divorce.
 
If the newspaper report is reliable, it would appear that the husband is also a manipulator and a crook

Even though the couple didn’t live in the Dominican Republic, Gabriel launched the legal dissolution there. He hired lawyers to represent each spouse and cited “incompatibility of temperaments” as the reason for the split, Cristina claims in a Manhattan Supreme Court lawsuit.

Cristina found out about it only in November when a tax bill arrived for their Manhattan home and her name wasn’t on it. She hired a lawyer to investigate, only to learn that Gabriel had tried to remove her name from the deed, using the Dominican Republic proceeding as proof she was not an owner, she charges.

The wife says in court papers she “has no recollection of [giving] any authorization to anyone to proceed with a divorce, or even thinking about divorce from the man she had just recently married.” If legal authority was given, she was either “surreptitiously impaired, drugged or misled” into giving it, claim court papers.

For twenty years she thought that she was a wife but it would appear that she was only a concubine.
I would be very pissed off about that if it was me.
He could die without my tender ministrations after that.

I don't know why I should be concerned other than that I regard marriage and marriage vows as important.
I know that this is not the universal approach to marriage but to me a vow of commitment between two people, made before witnesses, is as close to sacred as anything can be on this earth.

Yesterday I looked at my Facebook page and saw this photograph of my daughter

Underneath was this comment by her husband of 30 years
Immensely proud of this lady for all she does and all she stands for.

During their 30 years of marriage they have sometimes been church mouse poor as they struggled to raise their four children.
Even now they still have a big mortgage but they are still in love and still committed to each other.

I'm proud of both of them.
