Dita Von Teese to Serve Marilyn Manson With Divorce Papers

Dita Von Teese and Marilyn MansonBurlesque star Dita Von Teese, 34, plans to serve her husband of one year, Marilyn Manson, with divorce papers, according to Page Six. The raven-haired bombshell filed for divorce shortly before Christmas, but Manson, 37, has been unaware of it because she couldn’t get in touch with him.

Von Teese — who cites “irreconcilable differences” as a reason for the split — intends to ambush the Casper-faced rocker (born Brian Warner) at a Los Angeles recording studio today where he’s working on his next album.

Friends say Manson had been boozing heavily last year, much to Von Teese’s dismay, but she’d desperately tried to hold on. “She really tried to make this work,” a friend said.

“He’s not been responsive,” said the pal. “She loved him so much, but he has too many demons. He can’t even communicate with her at this point. She tried to tell him she was divorcing him, but she can’t even get him on the phone. She moved out of the house and he hasn’t even noticed.”

Von Teese’s pals say they are on her side. “Well, at least now she won’t have to share her makeup,” one quipped to the New York Post.

Von Teese (real name Heather Renée Sweet) has modeled for Playboy and is a spokesmodel for MAC makeup. She is famous for her striptease routine involving a giant martini glass.

After a seven-year courtship, the couple tied the knot in December 2005 in a goth-style ceremony held in an ancient castle in Tipperary, Ireland.

It’s unknown whether Von Teese plans to ask for custody of the couple’s two cats, Lily and Aleister, and dachshunds, Greta and Eva.

  1. dita,you’re an evil,lying,backstabbing creature.why didn’t you tell manson the truth?that you were cheating on him.there was no reason for you to be cheating on him to begin with.you lied and put manson down for no reason.he never cheated on you.he has friends with women.so what?he keeps it on a friend basis only.apparently you don’t.you take your friends to the next level.you were with masnson for 8 years before marrying him.if there were really any major issues with manson-they would’ve come out then.the brains you have for your so-called talent-you should’ve used it for staying with manson and making your marriage work.

  2. Sometimes marriages just don’t work. I am a fan of both and on a mature note, I wish both of them the best.
