Madonna’s Ex-Husband, Guy Richie, Marries Long-Time Girlfriend

While the 'Like a Virgin' singer remains single after their divorce in 2008, Guy Richie, 43, has moved on to marry girlfriend of 5 years, model Jacqui Ainsley, 33, with whom he has three children.

The wedding ceremony was held in their country home, the Ashcombe House estate in Wiltshire, South West England on July 30. David Beckham and wife, Victoria, sent their congratulations through social media. Only David made it to the ceremonies. A guest was said to have taken a photo of Brad Pitt in attendance at the wedding, as reported by Yahoo News UK. Other stars who were said to be in the guest list were Gwyneth Paltrow, Sting and his wife, Trudie and George Clooney and Amal.

Richie's sons with Madonna, Rocco, 15, and David Banda, 10, were also in attendance. The bride, Ainsley wore a gown by Philippa Lepley.

Luxury cabins were set up on the grounds of the estate for the guests, and a big marquee tent for the reception.

Richie and Ainsley have been dating since 2010, and have children, Rafael, 4, and girls Rivka, 3, and Levi, 1. Richie and Madonna were divorced in 2008 after 8 years of marriage. In their divorce settlement, Madonna agreed to grant him between 50 - 60 million GBP, which includes the value of their London pub, London residence and Wiltshire estate.

Richie and Madonna met when Richie directed the film, 'Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels', and the soundtrack of the film was issued on Maverick Records, owned by Madonna. The ex-husband is quoted to have said, 'whilst he does not regret his time with her, the drama was too much and that their life became a 'soap opera'.

Meanwhile, Madonna is now dating 24-year old model-dancer, Brahim Zaibat. The sultry songstress is now 53 years old, making the age difference a good 29 years.
