Many fans were surprised when Dita Von Teese filed for divorce from Marilyn Manson on December 29, 2006, citing “irreconcilable differences.” She married the American singer on November 28, 2005, after dating for about four years.

Allegations of Infidelity and Relationship with Evan Rachel Wood
The year-long marriage reportedly ended after he cheated on her with the then 19-year-old “Westwood” starlet Evan Rachel Wood, whom the tabloids dubbed a homewrecker.

“Most teenagers are searching for identity, and I was thrown into a situation where I was supposed to have that already figured out,” Evan Rachel Wood told Rolling Stone.
“Then you’re demonized for figuring it out and getting messy. People would call me a whore when I walked down the street, and you can’t not be hurt by that.”

“I met somebody that promised freedom and expression and no judgments,” the bisexual actress told the magazine.
“And I was craving danger and excitement. I looked at my mother one day and said, ‘Mom, I’m gonna get on this tour bus for eight months and see the world and have a crazy journey and find myself, and if people aren’t OK with that, I’m sorry, but I can’t live my life for other people.'”

Dita Von Teese Reflects on Her Marriage and Manson’s Lifestyle
In an interview, Von Teese talked about her challenges during her marriage. She described Manson’s party lifestyle as unbearable and mentioned her unsuccessful attempts to help him with his problems.
“It was difficult, because I was trying to get him help for his problems, and eventually I realized that he didn’t want help. I wasn’t supportive about his partying or his relationship with another girl, and as much as I loved him I wasn’t going to be part of that,” Dita told The Daily Telegraph in 2007 about her husband’s party lifestyle.
