Guy Ritchie and Madonna’s divorce announcement may have shocked the world, but a friend of the “RocknRolla” director told People he’s “doing fine.”
“[The divorce] is news to you and everyone else, but for Guy this has been a long time coming,” the friend told the mag. “I think he’s sort of relieved that it’s all out there. He doesn’t have to fake it anymore.”
Instead, Guy is pouring his energies into his latest project, the Robert Downey Jr.-starring “Sherlock Holmes” film, which is currently shooting in London.
“[He’s] very excited about his film, and he’s focused on that and getting on with it,” the friend said. “For him, everything is really the same as before, only with more photographers. Yesterday was insane.”
Meanwhile, Madonna is back on her “Sticky & Sweet” tour, having performed in Boston on Wednesday. But what about the kids?
“They are great,” the friend said. “They are Guy and Madonna’s top priority. That’s all that needs to be said.”
The estranged couple’s children include Lourdes, 12, Rocco, 8, and David, 3. A rep for Madonna confirmed the divorce to the Associated Press on Wednesday.
