Well, Alex Rodriguez hasn't commented on the record about this, but he's got to be jumping for joy at the breaking news that his "f*%king soulmate, dude" is now officially a free woman, no longer bound by the shackles of marriage.

The BBC reports that according to court lists, Madonna and that Guy she was married to will be granted a preliminary divorce decree at the High Court in London on Friday. After six weeks and a day, the divorce will be made final.

According to British celebrity news reports, Madonna, 50, and Guy Ritchie, 40, reached a settlement over money and kids Lourdes, 12, Rocco, 8, and David, 3.

London's Evening Standard reports that Madonna will keep the bulk of her estimated $500 million fortune, though Ritchie was entitled by law to a share of it.

"He could have hugely boosted his bank balance and set himself up for life, but he already feels he has enough money," a pal of Guy told the the Standard.

"But he also didn't want the whole thing dragging on in the public gaze for months and months on end. In any case, his priority was their children's future."

Madonna and Ritchie were married in 2000, shortly after the birth of Rocco. Since splitting last month, Madonna and Alex Rodriguez, the baseball star whose relationship with her is said to have been a factor in his own divorce, have been "involved."

A-Rod split with Cynthia Rodriguez earlier this year, after his alleged "affair of the heart" with Madonna and affairs of additional body parts with other skanks.
