Justin and Sophie divorcing

[Legato]

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his longtime partner Sophie Grégoire Trudeau announced on Wednesday that they are separating.

Mr. Trudeau, 51, has been married to Ms. Grégoire Trudeau, 48, for the last 18 years and have three children together: Xavier, 15, Ella Grace, 14, and nine-year-old Hadrien. Mr. Trudeau met Ms. Grégoire Trudeau, a former entertainment journalist, in 2003. Their wedding was held in Montreal in May 2005.

The announcement about the couple’s separation was posted to Instagram on Wednesday. Mr. Trudeau said that the couple had “made the decision to separate” and that they “remain a close family with deep love and respect”. He also asked that, for the well-being of his children, the family’s privacy be respected.

Aw, too bad.  

Justin becomes the 2nd PM to divorce while in office after... well... his dad

[West]

Tru-dumpling have an extra marital affair?

[ExFlyer]

Even she is bailing out of his circle.

My friends in government have said this has been coming for years.

[Nefarious Banana]

Good for Sophie . . . .envious of her.  She's separated from Justin Trudeau.  The rest of Canada awaits their separation.

[Legato]

Maybe she became Guinevere, found her Lancelot and gave the middle finger to King Arthur.

where would he be without his father's name today? 

Probably teaching school or boxing. Teaching boxing school?

was thinking to go with starting his own cannabis business or a waiter, but definitely not the Prime Minister. 

 

Na, he will be cast as a trainer in Rocky 17

Do you people even know the difference between a separation and a divorce?

[CdnFox]

I've heard it was a strained relationship for a while.  Jokes aside it's a crappy thing for anyone to go through, and having to read stuff in the papers every day about what a crap pot your hubby is can't be easy on her or the kids. 

Back to the politics - this is going to kill him in quebec next election i suspect.  And it will be a sharp contrast with PP who's wife is out there front and center saying her man is fantastic and she supports him 100 percent.

Right Herbie.   They're just on a 'break'.   

[herbie]

You know of no one who ever got back together? Get around more. I know of several that never filed for a legal divorce. My wife never filed - she was still  my "wife" in all but official marital status. I did, after a second separation and shouldn't have, as it cost years of financial hardship as a single Dad.

They announced a separation, not a divorce. The thread title is false.

Melania is gonna make her move.

Justin's got his eye on someone else . . .

They've been living seperately for years. It's just official now.

I don't think a reconciliation is likely.

envious of her. She's separated from Justin Trudeau.  

That means you spent 18 years with him o_O

That's like envying someone who looks like a model now, but used to be 600lbs and defecate in their pants because they couldn't make it to the toilet.

I'm offended. His face provided the best possible defense, from what I recall. 

Good luck at trying to KO someone without a brain.

Most people who take the "break" that is the separation, eventually divorce. 

Not because resets don't work.

But because this is the timing where communication is critical.

Have you seen Trudeau's communication skills?

They're as good as toast. Burnt toast.

Who's a major politician who announced a separation?

No. It's such a major career changer that they only ever do it when the marriage is over.

Not that there's many examples, the only other prime minister who got seperated from his wife in our history is  pier..... ohhh right.  His dad.  Never got back with margret either. Imagine that  

He really is desperately trying to make his entire political life exactly like his father's isn't he.

Asides form his incessant umms and ohhs, he can at least remain on subject.
Unlike the babbling m0ron that led the USA for 4 years. Or the ranting of the fool in Opposition.

ROFLMAO - NO he can't!!!!!  He's been HEAVILY criticized for his inability to answer a question!  Especially in europe   Ask him what time it is and he'll say "Thursday, and the liberal party is committed to the idea that it's thursday all day".   And it's actually a Friday.

She is definitely not Hillary Clinton to stand by her man but let's face it he is not a man of Bill Clinton's value and talents either, just being realistic, no offense to Trudeau if he reads this in the future. 

Personally, I would even ask Mr. Trudeau to consider an exercise and ask himself, where would he be without his father's name today? 

100 % right, Bill convinced America that getting a blow job was not cheating....you have to have skill to be that convincing...

I really don't like Justin, but divorce is a tough horse to ride, plus maintain his job as well... not to mention his new fore head electrical charging station plug in and how painful that must be.... might be that new Chinese neural network we been hearing about, so he can get his orders through a little voice in his head now.. instead of a traceable e-mail... Just a question do all liberal party members have access to this new tech...or just the leader...

Uh, Hilary said that she wouldn't stand by her man like Tammy Wynette.  So your statement makes no sense. I think you completely misremember what was meant by Mrs. Clinton, or perhaps you never knew. If you get a chance, read up on that now, and the retort by Tammy W.

I know very well she was talking about being her own person, a brilliant political tactic, yet, they stayed together for the optics to be a political powercouple moving forward, that was my point. 

You think HIlary was standing by her man when she said, she wasn't standing by her man like Tammy Wynette.   That's all I'm saying.  You are misunderstanding what Hilary meant back in the 90's.
