Tony Parker Files His Own Divorce Papers in Texas

By Tracey Harrington McCoy Posted Nov 19th 2010 09:45PM

Looks like the Eva Longoria and Tony Parker divorce is turning into a battle. TMZ.com reports the basketball star filed his own divorce papers in Texas on Friday--in response to the papers Longoria filed earlier this week in Los Angeles.

Parker's petition shows Friday's date and was filed in Bexar County, Texas. With papers filed in two different states, it seems the couple is fighting over where the case will be heard. According to TMZ, Texas divorces can move quickly--all could be said and done in 60 days.

In his petition, Parker states the following as the reason for the split: "The marriage has become insupportable because of discord or conflict of personalities between Petitioner and Respondent that destroys the legitimate ends of the marriage relationships and prevents any reasonable expectation of reconciliation."

Though the couple reportedly signed a prenuptial agreement, Parker's divorce papers don't mention it. Instead he states, "Petitioner believes Petitioner and Respondent will enter into an agreement for the division of their estate."

Longoria filed for divorce Tuesday after reportedly finding hundreds of text messages on Parker's phone from Erin Barry, the wife of Parker's former San Antonio Spurs teammate Brent Barry. Parker has since denied any physical relationship with Barry.

What is the point of marriage? Seems like they never work, or are more pain than they are worth. Not always the case. But if you are older and aren't going to have children - definitely - why bother???

This mess is simply about money as both parties signed prenups but for some reason, she feels as though she's entitled to a care package. Let her go and play with some rocks of her own!

None of us could ever really know (Noscere - to know) what happened in this marriage, because we are not joined at the hip to either one of them. This divorce appears to have been animated to a life of it's own and it appears as though it fell out of the "Ugly Tree" and hit every branch on the way down.
Only a few people were involved in mine; where is it written that the whole world has to know their business?

Who gives a flying fig where they get divorced? Too much space is wasted on this kind of junk. Just get divorced and forget about it..... I guess that Longoria and Parker just like to see their names in print. I don't.

You most care Joan otherwise you wouldn't click the headline do as I say not do type.

I would say inter racial marriages would fail more that same race, sports and movie stars forget it. The chance of that marriage lasting more than 5 years was zero.

By Andrea Hayes

Interracial marriages do not fail more often than same race marriages. I was married to the same man right up until his death. Race has absolutely NOTHING to do with it.

Looks good on the NO-TALENT idiot Eva!
America, what a great country!

WHY? Can't a man keep his desires in tack, scuzzy "B"

Jeannie, there was another party involved. It was a woman.

By ablacksafari

She was stupid for marrying that french brother to begin with, just saying...

By Bob

I bet she's a real bi**h to live with. Probably wanting all the tv time for herself. Tony could have done better anyway.

By Katie Colby

Way to go Bob. Guess you put Donna in her place. and why wouldn't Tony want to divorce a wife that is always running around with Mario Lopez. He'll be the next one to file. New baby girl or no. He' been cavorting with Tony's wife for years.

By donna

Yea BOB...well your wife or girlfriend or boyfriend could have done better too!!!!!

Well thank you donna. I have been telling the wife for years to get out but she won't. She's probably kinda like you stuck on the couch eating bon bon's wishing she was a thin celebrity. Love ya babe!

By red

wish Eva would go out with me but I'm just a factory worker

Yeah sorry red. But maybe if you were a well hung brother you might just have the chance. A lot of woman like that these days.
