Madonna and Guy Ritchie's divorce has been granted.
The pair - who were married for nearly eight years - were given a decree nisi at the clinical Principal Registry of the Family Division in High Holborn, London, this morning (21.11.08).
Listed under the names Ciccone M L v Ritchie G S, their case was heard by District Judge Reid along with 16 other cases which were for "pronouncement of decree or order under the special procedure rule".
In court papers and an affidavit signed in Beverly Hills, Madonna listed Guy's "unreasonable behaviour" as the reason for the divorce.

Neither party were present at the court.
The couple must now wait six weeks and one day before their decree absolute is awarded, officially ending their marriage.
It has been claimed Guy will receive £2 million of the pop superstar's reported £300 million fortune and will share custody of the pair's sons Rocco and David.
