John and Elizabeth Edwards Are Splitting Up

I don't think any of us saw this coming!

John and Elizabeth Edwards, whose marriage received outsize attention in the last two Democratic presidential campaigns, have legally separated, according to two people close to the family.

And all it took was him fathering a child with another woman who filmed a sex tape of him while he campaigned for president of the United States despite the fact that she had cancer.

Marriages today. They're not sturdy like they used to be.
