Rudy Giuliani Divorces Wife, Judith, After 15 Years Of Marriage
It seems like love isn't in the air right now for several celebrity couples. In the wake of the Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan split, former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani and his wife, Judith Giuliani, are divorcing after 15 years of marriage.
Third Time Wasn't The Charm
The American lawyer gave Page Six an exclusive statement about the couple's separation and confirmed that he and Judith would like things to be as cordial as possible.
"It is with great sadness I can confirm that Judith and I are divorcing. We hope to do this as amicably as possible, and hope that people will respect the privacy of our children at this time," the 73-year-old said in a statement.
The politician further said that the situation is 50/50 and neither of the two is to blame as there were problems on both sides.
Judith reportedly filed a contested divorce proceeding in Manhattan Supreme Court, which means she plans to fight over their assets. Hopefully things won't get ugly as Rudy has also revealed his plans to divide their properties in New York and Palm Beach with Judy.
The two tied the knot in 2003. This was the third marriage for both. Rudy was first married to Regina Peruggi from 1968 to 1982 and then to Donna Hanover from 1984 to 2002. He also shares two children with Hanover: 32-year-old Andrew Giuliani and 29-year-old Caroline Giuliani.
Judith's first husband was Jeffrey Ross and the couple was married from 1974 to 1979. Then, shortly after calling it quits with Ross, she married Bruce Nathan until 1992, with whom she shares a daughter named Whitney Nathan.
The Mayor Of New York City
Rudy is best known for serving as mayor of New York City from 1994 to 2001. He was also extremely prominent during the September 11, 2001 attacks.
Then in January 2017, the businessman became President Donald Trump's informal cybersecurity adviser. Rudy revealed that he had advised Trump on issuing his Executive Order on barring Muslim countries from entering the United States for 90 days and suspending the admission for all refugees for 120 days.
