Medium star Patricia Arquette, 40, has filed for divorce from her husband of two years, actor Thomas Jane, 39. The couple has a five year old daughter, Harlow. It is the second marriage for both Arquette and Jane. Arquette was previously married to Nicholas Cage in 1995 for just nine months before they separated. Jane was arrested for DUI in March of last year, for which he received a year’s probation:
Patricia Arquette has filed for divorce from her actor-husband.
Arquette filed for divorce from Thomas Jane in Los Angeles on Monday, citing irreconcilable differences. The couple, who were married in May 2006, have a 5-year-old daughter, Harlow Olivia Calliope Jane.
Arquette, the Emmy-winning star of the NBC show “Medium,” is seeking custody of their daughter, with visitation rights for Jane.
Jane, who appeared in the 2007 film “The Mist” and 2004’s “The Punisher,” was placed on a year’s probation in September after pleading no contest to a drunken driving count in California’s Kern County.

My favorite headline about this divorce is from X17, which states confusingly “Jennifer Aniston’s best friends sister in law files for divorce.”
Arquette has hired divorce attorney Laura Wasser, who represented Britney Spears in her divorce from Kevin Federline.
It seems like a lot of couples split over the holidays and that could be due to the added stress of the season and/or the kind of self evaluation people do around this time. Do you know any couples that have broken up around Christmas? I have a feeling we’ll hear about some more before the end of the week.

That sucks! I love her.. she made me embrace my snaggletooth. And *that’s* Thomas Jane? Jesus, it’s like all the hotness he once possessed just went into keeping her looking like she hasn’t aged in 20 years. Good for her.

My husband asked me for a divorce on Christmas day, 3 weeks after the death of my father. After a year of therapy, I’ve come to the conclusion that he is a sociopath.

Susan-you got it right there hon-some guys love to kick you when you are down-kick em to the damn curb i say-and upwards

Susan- I send you many hugs. That’s terrible. I’m so sorry that happened to you. I hope he plays in a busy street.

Susan - Wow, Merry EFN Christmas
With any luck your ex will die in a fire.I loved this couple and it makes me sad that their marriage ended. However that means Thomas Jane is available for me and now I must go find him.

*Sending bad vibes to Susan’s ex*
As for Tom Jane, I’ve met him and a friend of mine had to be his assistant at a convention once. Of every “celebrity” my friend has ever had to deal with, Jane was the cruelest. It totally bummed me out, too, b/c I always liked him!
-
that’s a shame. I like her and wish her the best.
does anyone know what’s up with _Medium_–i.e., when it returns, if it returns?
-
Awww, susan, I’m so sorry for what you went through. Sending you hugs too, & where does that asshole live ’cause I know people & my people know people. Just a thought!!!!
-
Wow, Susan! And I thought MY ex was bad.
What a rectal fissure that guy must be!
This makes me sad. Sounds like they got married and he started drinking. Good for her for recognizing a mistake and ending it before YEARS of damage were done to her daughter by living with a drunk.

I was in the line up at the liquor store before New Year’s and a woman in front of me told the cashier (they’re acquainted) that her boyfriend just called her up and cancelled their New Year’s plans. Why? Well, because he was going out with his room-mate, who he’d been scr#wing since before Christmas, and they were now a couple. Tra-la-la, Happy New Year, essentially. That was cold. I hope this polecat gave her back the Christmas gifts she’d gotten him.
