Vanilla Ice and Wife Split After 14 Years

One-hit wonder rapper-turned-reality TV star Vanilla Ice has split from his wife after 14 years of marriage.

Ice, born Robert Van Winkle, married wife Laura Giaritta in 1997 and have two daughters together, Dusti, 12, and Keelee, 10. Ice, 43, recently moved out of their family home in Wellington, Fla. after he allegedly discovered that Laura had been cheating on him.

Giaritta denies allegations that she was unfaithful, but confirms she and her longtime husband are no longer living together. Giaritta tells the National Enquirer, "We've had problems for a very long time and Rob has moved out."

Whether or not the cheating allegations are true, infidelity is just one of the estranged couple's "problems." Back in January 2001, Van Winkle was arrested for assaulting his wife. He pleaded guilty to charges of disorderly conduct and was sentenced to probation and ordered to attend family therapy sessions.

In April 2008, Van Winkle was arrested again on a battery charge for allegedly kicking and hitting his wife. Ice was released after Giaritta reneged on her claims, stating her husband only pushed her. The case was later dropped.

Since day A of independence, OUR COUNTRY UNITED STATES HAVE GONE FROM WORSE TO THE WORST !!! IT IS OBVIOUS THAT PEOPLE ELECTED ARE REPRESENTING OWN INTERESTS ONLY ($$$ & Israel) AND COUNTRY IS IN A TOTAL MESS !!!


HOW MUCH FURTHER ARE WE WILLING TO GO IN ORDER TO PLEASE THESE VERY SAME PEOPLE WHO DENY US EVEN THE RIGHT TO EXISTENCE(what is to you country without laws or lawless country in respect to your personal rights, but the one that in contrast to your denied basic human rights recognizes you extremely liable when payments are due) !!?

IS IT INDEPENDENCE THAT WE CELEBRATE OR DEPENDENCE (what are your credit card bills or alimony saying about it) !!? HOW IS YOUR DIABETES AND LOST MARRIAGES !!? FORECLOSURES AND JOB SEARCH !!? THAT IS THE QUESTION TO BE OR NOT TO BE !!!!!! IS IT LAND OF THE FREE OR STATE OF TERROR AGAINST OWN POPULATION !!? IT IS TIME TO LET THEM KNOW WHAT COLOR ARE THE STRIPES ON OUR STAR SPANGLED BANNER !!!
