Jul 22 2008Balthazar Getty: 'Oh, hey, my wife and I separated. Did I not mention that?'
After photos of him and a topless Sienna Miller emerged, actor Balthazar Getty decided to wait a full week to announce he and his wife have been separated. Maybe he digs the asshole vibe, I dunno. Here's the statement Balthazar issued to the press via Us Magazine:
"The breakdown of a marriage is a very difficult and painful experience especially when children are involved," Getty wrote. "In light of the fact that many pictures have surfaced in print and on the Internet which has caused myself and my family great embarrassment, I felt it necessary to at least acknowledge publicly that yes indeed my wife and I have separated and I will not be commenting any further."
What's so difficult about telling your children that Mommy keeps a cold wedding bed? My dad told me all the time. Sure, I was only two, but I'd throw my blocks at the oven to let him know I knew where he was coming from. I turned out just fine. *whips mouse at intern* Sorry your boyfriend left you!

@ Jen: Congratulations! :-) I don't get this first-game either

Well, at least he came forward with a statement. It covers his ass at the very least. If he doesn't want pics taken, he should consider not being naked on a balcony with another woman.

what a fucking whore.

Cute couple. They appear to be happy. But I saw his personal ID on wealthy men personals site """""M e e t i n g W e a l t h y.c o m """"" last week. What is he looking for on that site? Looking for sugarbabe?

What the hell is a Balthazar Getty?
10. SaraDevil - July 22, 2008 9:40 AM
So basically he just wants everyone to know he hit that.
11. Where's Darkwing Duck? - July 22, 2008 9:53 AM
That guy is a Turd!
She is a whore!
12. Ted Mosby - July 22, 2008 9:56 AM
Who would've thought a guy with the name Balthazar would get so much ass?
13. http://webescape.wordpress.com/ - July 22, 2008 10:04 AM
His family is loaded, does the name Getty not mean anything to you?
14. sportsdvl - July 22, 2008 10:23 AM
Did anyone check out my website?
15. rough daddy - July 22, 2008 10:29 AM
that douche's familly is loaded i think,,,anyone ever fill up their gas tank at a "getty"station?

13 is right, this womenizer is the great-grand son of Paul J. Getty, the founder of Getty Oil Co. Yes, he is filthy rich.
17. Vince Lombardi - July 22, 2008 11:32 AM
It's J. Paul Getty. Like the J. Geils Band.
And it's "he and his wife have been separated." Always drop the pluralizing noun and read the sentence without it - if it sounds wrong, it is: "him (has) been separated" or "he has been separated."
oh, and it's also "womanizer." With an A.
On the upside, "schmuck" and "turd" are 100% correct, as well as accurate.

#2, Sienna Miller never looks Sienna Miller. For some reason, I am unable to recognize her without a label, though normally I can recognize even the most obscure celebrities. I don't know how the paps manage to spot her ... unless, of course, her "people" are purposely leaking her location so the paps can find her. But, gosh, I can't imagine a celebrity doing that...
#17, thank you for playing grammar police. I almost screamed when I read "him and his wife".
19. whoopwhoop - July 22, 2008 11:55 AM
they are both whores.... along with most people these days. whoever wants can sit there all day and talk about how 'cool' it is to 'get so much ass' but really, where does it get you in life.? But then again, it does seem that most people forgot how nice it is to have some class
20. 123 - July 22, 2008 12:10 PM
As my unmarried brother-in-law and his married girlfriend now realize, "kind of separated" and an "emotionally-finished marriage" do not equal "legally separated" or "divorced," and the soon-to-be ex can still make the ensuing custody/property/financial battle a living hell on the grounds that the new relationship is infidelity. Because that's pretty much what it is, legally speaking.
I'm sure Getty has a good lawyer but he's still an idiot. Really, it's not hard to get divorced in this country; folks are just selfish.

ARE YOU KIDDING?
Class & Ass go hand in hand for me.....that's how i get so much Ass in the first place.

@8 havoc
Most men already *have * tried Sienna Miller at least once.
23. adeliza - July 22, 2008 2:09 PM
and this is the girl that was so upset about being cheated on by that friggin' slug Jude Law. I guess she doesn't practice what she preaches.
24. eastcoastgirl - July 22, 2008 2:54 PM
That whore also broke up Jude Law's marriage.
25. saka - July 22, 2008 2:57 PM
I am a blog troll, ignore that bullshit site I linked it leads to a virus. Sorry but I have a little dick and needed the money for a transplant so I tried to scam you guys. Sorry again ignore the link.
26. ZZflop - July 22, 2008 3:24 PM
Perhaps he wanted to keep his PERSONAL LIFE personal? Why you even posted this story is beyond me.
27. getty ass - July 22, 2008 4:08 PM
Getty? offspring of the rich and famous an actor? or the other big profession "design" really? big surprise.
28. lol - July 22, 2008 4:10 PM
foolin' around with the douchebag son's of the rich; it's how hollywood gets their jobs- certainly not by talent.
big shocker
or maybe she is rockin the shocker.
lol
29. SueB - July 22, 2008 4:10 PM
Um, is this guy the only person in the world who hasn't heard what a tramp Sienna Miller is??? A guy with those looks and that kind of money who wants to cheat on his wife should be smart enough to choose ANYONE ELSE. (Granted, he can probably afford the meds he's going to need.)
30. lemonheads - July 22, 2008 5:14 PM
A big KUDOS to whomever took those photos of those two twits!
Sienna is a worthless ho. She was cheated on and now she's the cheater. That is the worst kind of ho, the one who should know better! Does she exist just to be embroiled in adultery scandals or does she actually serve some purpose in the world?
Blah-thalzar is a nobody cheating scum. Not good looking, not charming, had no problem adding to his large brood as little as 1 year ago but now finds himself deciding he wants to be a free bird and hang out on yachts with homewrecking hos. I feel sorry for his 3 daughters. What will they think of men knowing what a douchebag their own father is? This, as well know, won't last and Blahthazar will remain pubicly defiled for his actions for many years to come. Sienna, however, will get off easy because people have come to expect this from her.
Hopefully his scorned wife will take him for a boatload of his money.

As long as he keeps parading hot actresses around naked for us, he's a good man in my book.
32. Sash - July 22, 2008 7:14 PM
LOL, the wife said to the media that they weren't separated. Owned.
33. gerard Vandenberg - July 22, 2008 11:57 PM

35. Cami - July 23, 2008 3:12 AM
He's a longtime druggie and it shows by his actions. Sober up you spoiled jerk. Sienna Miller? Well that's just hopeless.
36. Omnibacon - July 23, 2008 7:31 AM

37. Lisa - July 23, 2008 7:18 PM
Seriously-once he's divorced, Sienna will going after a new married man. He's an ass but she's a major slut.
38. nicole - July 23, 2008 11:41 PM
I hope his wife takes his stank ass to the cleaners! AND he left his wifey for a ***bag, who's been from A-Z in Hollywoodland. Good luck roping her in!
