Liv Tyler & husband Royston Langdon split


On Monday we reported that Liv Tyler was overheard talking to a lawyer about possibly divorcing her husband of five years, British musician Royston Langdon. Us Weekly, which first reported the story, said Tyler was overheard complaining that Langdon was a “leech” on her assets. The couple have since officially split.

Liv Tyler and her husband, British rocker Royston Langdon, have decided to separate, her rep confirms to PEOPLE.

“Liv Tyler and Royston Langdon have confirmed their separation. They remain good friends and devoted parents to their son Milo and are requesting that their family’s privacy be respected at this time.”

Tyler, 30, and Langdon, 36, wed in 2003 in a private ceremony at a villa in the Caribbean. Their son Milo was born in December 2004.

[From People]

What a sad story. Somehow they always seemed like a fairly happy couple to me. Probably because they lived a pretty regular life. You didn’t see them at every party and opening, and they both seemed pretty devoted to their son. Hopefully they’ll manage to have an amicable relationship after this, and still be great parents.

Liv and Royston are shown on 3/25/07 at Elton John’s birthday party, thanks to WENN. Liv is shown below at the Costume Institute Gala on Monday. Several sources reported that she wasn’t wearing her wedding ring. Thanks to PRPhotos.

  3. Alicia says:

    OMFG! Headache you are absolutely right. I had to take another look and about freaked. What’s this world coming too??? A bunch of Spencer Pratt look a likes?!

  4. Cindy Kennedy says:

    perhaps he got tired of looking at her long horse face…

  5. JoGirl says:

    Maybe the Spencer Pratt resemblance was part of the reason for their breakup!

    @ Cindy Kennedy:

    😯 You can’t be serious. Liv Tyler is one of the most beautiful women on earth, period.

    Sad news, this divorce…

  7. headache says:

    Maybe he is Spencer Pratt and Gollum’s lost love child.

    And Liv Tyler is a definate beauty. She was perfection in Lord of the Rings.

  8. Audrey says:

    Really sad to hear the news. Divorce sucks! Esp for the children involved. They will be affected the most. Best wishes to them.

  9. Dennis k says:

    Wow! Maybe there is hope for me after all.

  10. Sasha says:

    Oh, that’s it ! Come to me Liv, and I’ll make the pain of the man-flesh go away forever. 😀

    Every gossip rag needs one misandrist Baby Dyke with daddy issues for comedic relief. Believe it or not, your Vajayjay isn’t the cure all for every woman in a failed relationship — straight or gay.

    Oy, but Mr. Langdon is seeeeeewwwww fugly. I never thought he was good enough for her.

    She is really a true beauty. However, thanks again to the tacky overdone eyeliner, she looks crap in that photo. Only a very few people look okay in heavy eyeliner.

    Liv, I’m not too proud to be your ‘rebound’ guy…call me…

    It’s called Humor, Mezzro. I’m sure your species researched before beaming down from the mothership.

    I’d be upset too knowing there was someone who could do more for a woman with her little finger in five minutes than you could in three hours with your entire body and a bottle of gin.

  15. Lick it, don't stick it says:

    Mezzro, no need to single out someone because they’re gay. It’s 2008 get out of your cave.
    Besides, you hate in other people what you hate in yourself. Read: most gay bashers are closeted gays.

  16. Mezzro says:

    No one is bashing gays. I have gay friends of both genders. Being in the minority does not excuse bashing the majority. Humor is one thing, the insecurity and misanthropy Sasha suffers from is another and gives gay females everywhere a bad name. Like it or not Sasha, bull dykes are homo sapiens too. Even those with red hair. I think.

  17. moshpitbitch says:

    Given the fact that Liv had absolutely no family stability in her life as her mother had nothing to do with her until she was recognised as Steven Tyler’s daughter, its a wonder she’s kept anything together; mental and marital status included.

  18. Mezzro says:

    Agreed. All considered, I think she’s done a terrific job at leading a balanced life out of the klieg lights of Follywood. She’s among a handful of actors that appear genuine and uncorrupted. More power to her in the next — hopefully happier — chapter of her life.

    i don’t think she’s so great. what the hell has she ever done anyway?
