Kelsey Grammer divorces third wife

Sad news today for Frasier fans! Kelsey Grammer and his third wife, former Playboy model and member of the Housewives of Beverly Hills cast Camille Donatacci,  announced yesterday that they would be divorcing after nearly thirteen years of marriage. Kelsey confirmed the divorce on Twitter:

Hello everyone thank you for ur support and Yes it's TRUE Camille and I are Divorcing I ask U 2 respect our privacy in these difficu...

3 hours later, he went on and on asking his 24,646 followers to respect their privacy and be nice to Camille -- read from bottom to top (earliest tweets at the bottom):




Definitely wild that he would say all this on twitter -- I guess the rep's remarks weren't enough....

Kelsey and Camille have have two children together, daughter Mason (8) and son Jude (5) Grammer. According to TMZ.com,  the couple sited irreconcilable differences, and Camille is requesting joint legal custody of the children, as well as spousal and child support.

Personally, what surprised me most about this unfortunate situation was that -- who knew there was a Real Housewives of Beverly Hills in the works!? And when, pray tell, is itcoming to CANADA? We're still impatiently waiting for the latest Real Housewives of NYC series to get here already. Egad.
