There were rumors 6 years ago that she had an affair with Jack Nicholson following a film they made.

And no, successful marriage is until one of the couple dies. That’s the vow…unless you make up your own and don’t make that promise.


They are still married.

He may have a drinking problem. I do not know this but seem to recall rumors way back when....


See, it's posts like these that are just beyond absurd. You're repeating a rumor with zero substantiation. Why? Why smear someone for no good reason?

What’s up with this? Have you heard of google? It’s literally on every entertainment news site. Are you too lazy to actually read the real news that you have to make other people do it for you?


DP. Here's what's "up with this": it is a longstanding expectation on DCUM that the OP provide a link to whatever topic s/he is starting. Did you not know this?

Six years? That’s enough time to build an entirely new life apart.

There’s probably someone else and one of them wants to be in a new public relationship or get married. I’m guessing Meryl probably has a new partner, because no one would really care about her husband’s relations. They’ve been separated for six years and the media hasn’t said peep.

So….who is Meryl dating?


OMG! Isn’t it obvious?

She’s dating Will and he’s dating Jada!

I just read this story about her and John. I thought it strange the timing of the story since I never heard about it before. Now I’m thinking it’s her PR team spinning the wheels!

What and old f’d up way to look at life to think divorce is “sad” .

Fly be free!


How old are you? Asking because my 50-something single friends, in honest moments, are not liking the future they see for themselves in old age.


Neither are my 60+ married friends, particularly the women who married older men.


Can you saw more about this? Divorcing when the kids go to college is my plan. What are their concerns?

I work in another city from where my wife lives. Long story, but she wants a completely different life than what I want. And it will never be resolved.

This.

My aunt was near 80 when she divorced. Decades of infidelity and abuse. The judge tried to make it out like they should just live apart since they were both so old. My aunt spoke up about wanting to truly be free. She got her divorce.


You go girl!

Idris Elba


Uh no way.

Idris is 51 and Meryl is 74.

One of the finest black men on the planet is not dating an old white granny. Sorry. 😂

That is both a low bar and a depressing one


I would say they had a successful relationship but not a successful marriage.
