Marc Anthony's Marriage Woes
It appears Marc Anthony's broken marriage can't be mended.
The on-again, off-again union of the Latin singer and former Miss Universe Dayanara Torres appears to have wrapped up for good, People reports in its upcoming issue.
The missus, who had taken Anthony's real last name, Muniz, filed for divorce on January 20 in Miami-Dade County, Florida, calling their union "irretrievably broken."
The couple, who wed in 2000, have two children, Cristian, 2, and Ryan, 5 months. Anthony also has a nine-year-old daughter from a previous relationship.
The beauty queen is seeking alimony and child support for their two sons.
Anthony's record label offered "no comment" Wednesday on the divorce report.
Wedded bliss for the camera-friendly couple has been short-lived ever since they swapped vows in a quickie Sin City ceremony in May of 2000 following the Blockbuster Awards in Los Angeles. The spontaneous nuptials meant only his family and some friends were attendance.
Their first split came two years later. No reason was given at the time and the couple never filed for separation or divorce.
Five months later, the duo appeared to have patched things up when they renewed their vows in a ceremony at San Juan Cathedral in their native Puerto Rico.
Described as a lavish affair, his rep called it the "church wedding that they never had." And this time around, her family was involved.
The reconciliation even produced a son, Ryan Anthony Muniz, born last August in New York. But baby wasn't enough to keep Anthony and Torres together.
He's reportedly in the studio these days recording a song with onetime gal-pal Jennifer Lopez for her upcoming movie, Shall We Dance?
Born in New York to Puerto Rican parents, the Grammy-winning Anthony developed a huge following in Latin America before taking American by storm with his 1999 self-titled English-language debut album, which spawned the mega-hit "I Need to Know," and went triple platinum.
