Bill Murray beats his wife
Bill Murray's wife of 10+ years, Jennifer, filed for divorce earlier this month in a Charleston County, South Carolina court. In the court filing, Murray's wife accuses the actor of adultery, drug abuse, abandonment, physical abuse, and I'm pretty sure that's all she could check. The Charleston Post and Courier (South Carolina's #1 Source for HOT Hollywood gossip) says:
According to the complaint, Jennifer Murray moved into a Sullivan's Island home in 2006 with the couple's four children due to her husband's "adultery, addiction to marijuana and alcohol, abusive behavior, physical abuse, sexual addictions and frequent abandonment."It was at the Sullivan's Island home, according to the complaint, that Murray allegedly abused his wife in November 2007. The six-page court filing says Murray "hit his wife in the face and then told her she was 'lucky he didn't kill her.' "
The complaint alleges that Murray physically abused his wife on more than one occasion during the marriage. (Source)
I'd be surprised that a Saturday Night Live alum was into drugs, alcohol, and abusive behavior if the precedent hadn't been set by Jim Belushi, Chris Farley, and Phil Hartman. With those three as role models, I'm surprised Bill Murray's still breathing. But I guess if there's anyone that shouldn't be afraid of kicking the bucket, it's him. It's been said the Dalai Lama himself has assured Bill that on his deathbed, he'll receive "total consciousness." So he's got that goin' for him, which is nice.

I've heard that he is a mean drunk and smokes the chronic to boot. It's time to Caddysmack his ass.
Um, Phil Hartman was by any account I have read a genuinely nice guy. His wife was the one with the heroin addiction...
I agree with Reflex, Phil Hartman was nothing but a kind a well adjusted gentleman. Out of the three you mentioned his death was the most shocking.
Gunga galunga, gunga - gunga galunga.
maybe he mistook her for a gopher........
.
His wife and her lawyers are only thinking about $$$$ at the end of the divorce. They have to portray her as a poor female victim so she will walk away with most of his money.
Typical crap.
And agreed again re: Phil Hartman. He was not the abuser by any stretch of the imagination. His wife was violent but he wasn't. In fact he had to physically restrain her during her violent outbursts. Let me reiterate that....RESTRAIN, not ABUSE. He wws a tender and loving man who, according to all acounts and the autopsy which I hold in my hand had no illegal drugs and no alcohol in his system at the time of his death. RIP Phil.
