Actress Pamela Anderson and her husband, recording star Kid
Rock, filed for divorce from each other on Monday after just four
months of marriage, according to court papers.
The divorce petitions, filed in Los Angeles Superior Court, cite
irreconcilable differences as the reason for the couple's
split.
"Yes, it's true. Unfortunately impossible," Anderson, 39, wrote in
the "diary" section of her website at www.pamelaanderson.com, under
the heading "divorce."
Earlier on Monday, People magazine quoted Anderson's New York-based
publicist, Tracy Nguyen, as saying the former Baywatch star had
filed for divorce last week.
"It wasn't a happy Thanksgiving," Nguyen told People.
Nguyen was not immediately available to comment further.
Canadian-born Anderson, a former Playboy magazine model who starred
as lifeguard C.J. Parker on the long-running TV show Baywatch, and
Rock, whose hit albums include 1998's Devil Without a Cause, were
married in late July aboard a yacht near the French Riviera resort
of St. Tropez.
Anderson and Rock, 35, whose real name is Robert Ritchie, had been
involved in a long, on-again, off-again relationship that began as
early as 2000. After a widely publicized break-up in 2003, she and
the lanky rap-rock singer got back together earlier this
year.
"Yes, I'm finally getting remarried ... I'm in love. I'm happy,"
Anderson had written on her site in July to confirm the wedding
plans.
Anderson has two children from her previous marriage to drummer
Tommy Lee of the rock band Motley Crue.
She and Kid Rock have no children together. Earlier this month,
celebrity magazines reported that Anderson had a miscarriage but
that could not be confirmed.
Her divorce filing is the fourth involving major celebrity couples
this month, following those of pop singer Britney Spears and dancer
Kevin Federline; film stars Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe;
and actress Kate Hudson and Black Crowes singer Christopher
Robinson.
