Maybe I haven't been visiting the right websites, because the impending Disney divorce caught me completely by surprise. Roy Disney and Patricia are calling it quits after over 50(!) years.

According to the Los Angeles County Superior Court filing, the Burbank couple, who have been married 52 years, have been living apart for an unspecified amount of time.

The couple have four adult children.

According to the divorce papers, the couple agreed to treat the divorce as a collaborative law case, which means each will try to cooperate to reach a settlement out of court.

Roy, of course, is the son of Roy O. Disney, who along with brother Walt co-founded what is now known as The Walt Disney Company. Roy E. Disney has made a name for himself with his creative work with the company, his boating, and his activism as an investor and shareholder, twice being a major factor in shaking things up at corporate headquarters.

I have to wonder what happened to bring this about after so many years of marriage. Maybe Sumner Redstone got a hold of Roy?

All kidding aside, it really isn't my business and I wish all involved well. I admire both Disney and Redstone from a business perspective, and both have helped bring a lot of entertainment to my life.

Curious. One would have to wonder what the point of divorce would be after so many years? Unless one of them wants to marry someone else.
 
Bordem?, perhaps?!

I wonder how many years they have been living apart?!
Someone got tired of it...........
 
There was just a short clip on this story on entertainment tonight. Roy Disney's estimated worth is 1.5 billion! The story went on to say that the divorce would be settled out of court and without any plubicity.
