Al Reynolds

Star Jones has filed for divorce from Al Reynolds - and allow us to be the first to say: congratulations, Al!

The process actually got started late last month, as Jones shared with Entertainment Tonight:

"Several years ago I made an error in judgment by inviting the media into the most intimate area of my life," said said... to the media.

"A month ago I filed for divorce. The dissolution of a marriage is a difficult time in anyone's life that requires privacy with one's thoughts. I have committed myself to handling this situation with dignity and grace and look forward to emerging from this period as a stronger and wiser woman."*

* One that sells the details to any celebrity gossip tabloid that will pay.

It's not always so easy to see the error of your ways. Look at how long it took Stavros Niarchos to stop dating Paris Hilton.

Or Tara Conner to realize that cocaine, alcohol and representing your country as a young, hot woman just don't mix.

Fortunately, most people do come around eventually. And, by the look of this picture below, it appears as though Al Reynolds has finally realized that he married Star Jones. It's okay, Al. You were probably blinded by The View before.

But take a look at that blubbery arm now! The flesh is looser than Lindsay Lohan...

The not-at-all happy couple is celebrating Jones' birthday with a bunch of people who must have showed up at the wrong party. We're assuming guests here would prefer to have atttended the bash for Lauren Conrad instead.

Oh well. You can't get everything you want. As Reynolds now knows. After all, he probably wants a wife who isn't ugly and self-serving.
