It's the celebrity headline of the week: after reuniting and getting married, Jennifer Lopez filed for divorce from actor Ben Affleck. It was a different ending for pro golfer Rory McIllroy and his wife, Erica Stoll, earlier this year. After seven years of marriage, McIllroy also filed for divorce through a spokesperson saying their relationship was "irretrievably broken." Yet a month later, the couple dismissed the divorce, telling media "we have resolved our differences and look forward to a new beginning."
