Madonna had an alleged “marriage contract” with Guy stating that he could not shout at her and that he had to devote time to sex, according to a report.

The report claims the couple drew up an agreement after attending marriage counseling two years ago to put down some rules on paper … Guy was told he “must work to enrich his wife’s emotional and spiritual well-being,” “resolve conflicts in a constructive way,” and focus on the couple’s “sexual expressiveness,” according to the story.

There was even a requirement that Guy spend several hours a week reading Kabbalah texts with Madonna.

Sources also reveal that Madonna posted the contract in their home and when Guy did anything untoward, Madge would remind him, “Contract, Guy, contract.”

Apparently Madonna’s marriage had been on rocky gound for quite some time before the actual divorce.

“It was unraveling throughout the last year,” says a common friend. “They were living separate lives and coming together every now and then for the cameras.”

The source added, “There had been problems for a while.”

While the reps casually swept aside talks of an affair between Madonna and A-Rod, it appears there really was no smoke without a fire. ”He was a factor in a long list of problems that they had been having over the past year or two,” says her friend. “But it wasn’t the reason. If she wanted to move past that she would have, and Guy would have too.”

“It wasn’t just one thing,” said the source. “They just lost their connection.”

Madonna and Guy Ritchie’s marriage is over, with the Queen of Pop and the forty years old film director announcing their plans to divorce.

“Madonna and Guy Ritchie have agreed to divorce after 7½ years of marriage,” their reps said in a joint statement. “They have both requested that the media maintain respect for their family at this difficult time. A final settlement has not been agreed upon yet.”

“It is sad,” Madonna publicist Liz Rosenberg said.

Word of serious trouble in the Material World bubbled over in August amid reports that she had an affair with Alex Rodriguez, who later had to divorce his wife.

The story’s heating up at Madge’s end of the spectrum again. Although Madonna’s rep has denied that there’s any infidelity or plans for a divorce between her and Guy Ritchie, A-Rod (with whom she was allegedly having an affair) has reportedly separated from his wife of five years, Cynthia.

Cynthia and Alex have two daughters together, aged three and half and two months. There’s a questionable rumor that Cynthia is now having an affair with rocker Lenny Kravitz, and has joined him in Paris for a few days while he’s on tour. Her mother denies that’s true, and it’s difficult to see the mother of a two-month-old jetting off to Paris for a new man in her life, but it’s not impossible. To make this story more complicated, Madonna dated Lenny Kravitz back in 1990.

Update:

Yesterday Maddona and her husband of seven years, Guy Ritchie, made a strained public outing in light of rumors that each of them has consulted divorce attorneys. They followed their standard operating procedure whenever there are rumors questioning the fitness of their marriage - they went out together and invited the paparazzi to document it. If they’re willing to do that they’re probably willing to work out whatever issues they have that boiled over to the press. They might just stay together.

Sources reveal that A-Rod has been paying Madonna some late-night visits at her apartment in Central Park in New York. Madonna’s husband, Guy Ritchie, flew in from London yesterday, his face a picture of seriousness and reportedly he was not wearing his wedding ring. Speculation is rife that he is in New York in a desperate bid to save his marriage.

Sources also say that the $28-million-a-year Rodriguez, 32, has made many night-time visits to Madonna, 49, at her spacious New York apartment and would “sneak out “as late as midnight.” The source added, “All the doormen are talking.”

Rodriguez attended Madonna’s NYC concert back in April and Madonna sat in A-Rod’s personal seats at a Yankee game on June 22. Rodriguez, who is married and has two young girls, has already been accused of cheating with a stripper back in 2007.
