I genuinely thought that Madonna and Guy Ritchie's divorce would be a pleasant one which would pass by smoothly and then be forgotten. What was I thinking? Madonna apparently took a swipe at her soon to be ex-husband on stage in Boston just hours after the split was made official.
According to reports, the singer dedicated her recent single 'Miles Away' to "the emotionally retarded". She then added: "Maybe you know some people who fall into that category, I certainly do". She also introduced 'I'm Not Sorry' by shouting "That's right, I'm not sorry".
According to The Mirror, Guy Ritchie told friends that the marriage came to end because it had become a "charade" and a "three ring circus". He is also reported to have said: "I just wanted a regular husband and wife thing. But it was always a great song and dance just to do ordinary stuff".
