The break-ups of many famous couples hit the wire: Mel Gibson and his baby mama Oksana Grigorieva have split after a year of dating, a source tells UsMagazine.com.
"No one dumped anyone," the source says. "It's all very friendly."
Gibson filed for divorce from his wife of 28 years, Robyn, last April. They are parents to seven children. The couple were worth $900 million and it was believed to be the most expensive divorce settlement in Hollywood history.
Grigorieva has a son named Alexander with her ex Timothy Dalton.
Also announced was the end of Melissa Etheridge and her actress partner of nine years relationship.
'Melissa and Tammy Etheridge are saddened to announce that they are now separated,' a spokesperson for the singer has exclusively told People.
The couple added in a statement: 'We ask for consideration and respect for our family as we go through this difficult period.'
Tammy Lynn Michaels and Etheridge exchanged vows in Malibu in 2003. They have two children, son Miller and daughter Johnnie Rose.
Etheridge also has two children from her previous relationship.
Singer Justin Timberlake is reportedly putting his girl Jessica Biel through the ringer with his reported flirtations with his ex Cameron Diaz on the set of their movie Bad Teacher.
Several sources tell UsWeekly: "He tortured Jess by taking this role, and they are reaching a breaking point. The truth is, I don't know if they can survive this. There's lots of laughing, making fun of each other, kidding around off camera. Cameron's sassy with him -- and slick, prancing around in tight clothes."
Larry King and his newly-estranged wife Shawn sailed away from each other on Tuesday reported TMZ.
Shawn is asking the judge to declare the following her separate property -- their Beverly Hills mansion, a house in Provo, Utah, and a house in St. George, Utah.
TMZ claims Larry transferred these home to Shawn several years ago, after Shawn confronted him about having a relationship with her sister, Shannon -- a claim Shannon denies.
Larry's asking the judge to void the transfers.
