Liam Hemsworth files for Divorce from Miley Cyrus

Hollywood Superstar Liam Hemsworth is the one who’s pulling the plug on his marriage because TMZ has reported that he just filed for divorce from Miley Cyrus.

Liam filed legal documents in L.A. citing the standard “irreconcilable differences.”

Sources connected to the couple said, Liam and Miley had a prenup, keeping their earnings during the marriage separate, so there won’t be a fight over money. And, since there are no kids, we’re told the divorce will be easy breezy.

The handwriting was on the wall for weeks … Miley and Liam announced their separation August 10, after less than a year of marriage. Sources said Liam is “over the marriage” and just wants to move on.

The day before telling the world she split from Liam, Miley was spotted making out with her longtime friend, Kaitlynn Carter, at Lake Como in Italy. There were allegations of infidelity, although it appeared the couple had split months before.

The date of separation is relevant, not so much legally, but in terms of PR. In the documents, filed by disso queen Laura Wasser, she does not list a date of separation … it reads TBD — to be determined.

Here’s what’s interesting, sources say, despite appearances, Miley had made overtures as recently as this week, saying she wanted to work on the marriage, but Liam was steadfast that it was over. We are told fact is, Liam’s people said he would be “insane” to jump back in.

Liam and Miley had been drifting apart for some time. Liam was photographed in June grocery shopping without his wedding ring.

The breakup started out amicable, but it quickly turned nasty, with claims of drug use and infidelity. She released a song last week, “Slide Away,” which we’re told is her version of the split, blaming it on Liam’s alleged penchant for whisky and pills … something he strongly denies.

Miley and Liam tied the knot back in December, hosting friends and family for a wedding celebration at their home in Nashville. It was the first marriage for both of them, and they were together, on and off, for a decade.

MultiChoice Kenya’s DStv service has announced fresh subscription price cuts in the latest attempt to respond to increased competition for pay-TV customers from new Internet-based streaming entrants. DStv, which entered the Kenyan market in 1995, said in a notice to subscribers that it would from September 1 slash its monthly payments by between five and 30 percent.

The company’s move is seen as its latest bid to protect its customer base in the face of increasing competition as home Internet connections from providers such as Wananchi Group and Safaricom push up demand for on-the-go streaming services such as YouTube, Netflix and MultiChoice’s Showmax. read more
