Forty years, and thirteen years, was seperation made easier in their marriages because of Mother and daughter's dissatisfaction with their husbands and their lives?
They are starting new beginnings. Never too late to make a change. Go girls!
The same thing happened in my family, but I left my husband first and then my mother left my father right after that. The divorces were not connected in any way. Weird, though – my mother screamed and screamed at me for leaving my husband and then she went and did the same thing, but she left for her boyfriend. I left for my sanity. Our family was in turmoil for several years.
I wish all of them the best.
Boy global COOLING is taking a toll.......
Why is this even in the ticker? Slow day?
its sad so many couples are divorcing
WHY on God' earth is this even news? I mean, Karena has every right to her own decisions married or not. I don't understand why CNN is even reporting on this sillyness. Tipper and Al Gore seperated, so WHAT? They have their own reasons, it's THEIR marriage. WHY is any of this even relevant or deemed newsworthy?
I'm really getting SICK and TIRED of media outlets making MORE out of nothing politically and deeming it as "newsworthy". What ever happened to the IMPORTANT issues, like healthcare, JOBS, AIDS, the cure for cancer, World Peace, etc.?????
Too bad for the kids.
Dad left mom last week. Daughter left hubby this week. There is a story here, a nasty one and unless some brave soul tells it...forgive the rumor mill tabloids in advance.
This explains it. The daughter's husband slept with Tipper Gore. That's why they are both seperating. Oh my God!
It's George Bush's fault
Maybe it's climate change thats having this effect on the gore's marriage status, you think?
Well daddy is free now...She can go after him and have some more of daddy's loven.....
Contagion running rampant in Gore women, be glad you are not with one of them, they are running amok!
Another sad story of broken families and I am sure if someone really tried to mend it, it wasn't impossible. 1 can single out few vices, prominently 5, a combination of which is responsible for negativity.
Lust, Anger, Greed, Attachment, Ego... Our Society needs to learn to control these and better manage these.
Her dad's an idiot.....yes..... but leave her out of the spotlight... she's done nothing...
Why would she comment CCN? This isn't news!
Monkey see, Monkey do
Why is this news on the front page of your website CNN? You are starting to become more of a tabloid. For Chris sakes put something that is actually going to affect the world.
why is cnn reporting on this...they are not politicians or celebrities....shame on you cnn......why don't you report the news instead of prying into someones personal life.
who cares
And why is this considered news? Karenna Gore Schiff has nothing to do with politics. This should not even be reported on.
I wish CNN would post news stories are relevant to the country and not be a social media bar fly.
What political revelance does this have?
If you break your marriage vows for any reason other than abuse/malice on the part of your partner then that makes you a LIAR.
this has to be a first, mother split, week later daughter split
