Madonna and Guy Ritchie's Troubled Marriage

It turns out Madonna and Guy Ritchie's marriage had been struggling over the years, with physical as well as emotional abuse, said friends of the couple.

“She would taunt Guy saying, 'I should have married someone like me: strong, hot-blooded, intelligent, ambitious, spiritual,'" exposed a Ritchie source. “Their fights would often get heated. A few times Madonna slapped him or poked him.”

But the fighting was equal, as a Madonna source stated, “Guy called her old, fat, ugly and wrinkled and said that she was stupid and couldn’t sing.”

With a heated divorce battle, another source has revealed that Ritchie already has gotten involved into another relationship with British actress Kelly Reilly, who will be starring in his forthcoming drama "Sherlock Holmes".

Ritchie had reportedly sent his driver back to his $12 million home in London’s Maryelbone district with short notice to pack an overnight bag, while he stayed at the Chatham hotel just three days after the announcement of the plan to divorce.

There have also been previous reports and rumors that Ritchie may had not of been faithful during the couples’ 7 and a half years of marriage.
