I swear it still seems like Guy Ritchie is slowly creeping his way out of his marriage. Every so often he’ll make these little Katie Holmes-like gestures of independence and you’ll think “Hey maybe he’s not totally brainwashed/doomed to die in some fiery volcano.” Okay a bit more of that example was Katie Holmes related, but you get my point.

Guy has said he and Madge won’t be renewing their wedding vows anytime soon. Apparently there was some gossip going around about that – though considering all the “emotional affair” rumors, the “we love each other so much we might renew our vows” gossip didn’t exactly get a lot of press. But just to be clear, no, they don’t.

Guy Ritchie has spoken out about claims he and Madonna are planning a wedding blessing.

The 39-year-old director says the idea is out of the question – because he spent too much money on her 50th birthday party.

‘’We won’t be renewing our vows,’ he tells The Mirror. ‘I think once was enough. And I’ve just paid out on a big party for her birthday.’

Guy, currently promoting new film RocknRolla, also reveals what he gave Madge to mark her half century.

‘I brought her 2 original Hermes drawings of equestrian thingies,’ he says. ‘But trust me, the party was infinitely more expensive than the paintings.’

The couple have been married for almost 8 years.

You have the right to do whatever the hell you want to do Guy Ritchie, but don’t try to feed us some bull about how you’re not re-confirming your love for your wife because you don’t have the cash. That’d be like a penguin saying “Oh I’d totally do it, but I just can’t find any ice for the reception. I mean if it weren’t for the lack of ice I’d be all over it.”

I imagine that Madonna probably has someone who’s sole job is to tape dollar bills together and then loop them around a golden toilet paper roll in each room. That way you can literally wipe yourself with Madonna’s cash. You’ve got the money. You just don’t want to announce to the world how awesome and solid your union is. And that’s smart. Your reason is what’s dumb.
