With the shocking news of the passing of Diane Keaton today in California at the age of 79, we wanted to share our 2022 story about her relationship and breakup with fellow actor Al Pacino: This week, Alicia catches us up on the long, but ultimately not permanent, romance between actors Diane Keaton and Al Pacino.

By the time Charlotte Rae earned her (second) Emmy nomination for her portrayal of Mrs. Garrett on The Facts of Life in 1982, she was already decades into a career that had yielded two Tony nominations and a 1970s-era Emmy nomination as well. But a lot of things had happened on the way to Edna Garrett, including a long marriage - and a quick divorce.

Lest you think that America’s culture of celebrity for no reason is new, Stacie is here to assure you that isn’t remotely the case. Way, way back, asbestos heir and Manhattan bon vivant Tommy Manville made himself the talk of the times by heading down the aisle over, and over, and over again. With 13 weddings and 11 divorces under his belt, “The Marrying Manville” isn’t just a Trashy Divorces All-Star – he’s basically a legend! This encore episode originally aired in August 2022.

With news breaking just this week that country crooner Keith Urban has filed for divorce from his wife of 19 years, Nicole Kidman, we wanted to resurface this 2019 episode covering the travails of the women who've tried to love one Tom Cruise. On the plus side of the equation, it's unlikely that Nicole will face anything as bizarre or painful with Keith as she went through with Tom back in the day.

They say that necessity is the mother of invention, and that's certainly one way to look at the story of Mary Kay, the cosmetics company founded by a woman who'd been divorced and then widowed (and then widowed again) in an era where women weren't exactly welcome in C-suites. But Mary Kay Ash seems to have had some secrets - secret husbands, to be clear - as does the company she founded.

Today, Alicia has the sad tale of the King and Queen of the Jazz Age, writer F. Scott Fitzgerald and his wife Zelda Sayre Fitzgerald. Though they never divorced, the story is a great illustration of the reality that some marriages don’t work, and a lot of people would be better off ending a marriage rather than staying in it. That's what Alicia wishes that Zelda had decided, dancing away from their doomed marriage a century ago instead of disappearing into it.

The promise of ABC's The Bachelor is the dream of happily ever after, but as we all know, well-lit reality TV filmed in romantic locations doesn't reflect the reality most of us live in. And so it was for Rachel Lindsay, lawyer and the season 13 lead of The Bachelorette, who chose chiropractor Bryan Abasolo for her final rose, and married him a couple of years later. Unsurprisingly, it didn't last long.

This week, Alicia is celebrating the 135th birthday of the mother of the modern mystery genre: Agatha Christie. And while Agatha Christie's novels held the public's attention, her disappearance in December 1926 galvanized the public and brought various personal scandals - namely, her husband Archie's infidelity - to light, in a way that nothing else could have. But to this day, we have no idea what exactly that 11-day period in the long life of Agatha Christie actually was.

It's always exciting when celebrity worlds collide. In this case, it's reality TV star Kristin Cavallari and NFL pro Jay Cutler, and when they settled into matrimonial bliss early in the last decade, it sure seemed like things were great. In no time, the couple had three kids and were living it up in a Nashville mansion with camera crews documenting it all. But there was plenty left on the cutting room floor, and wouldn't you know it, divorce court was just around the corner.
