Why did they get divorced?

Linda filed for divorce from Paul in 2013, citing irreconcilable differences. However, there is more than meets the eye, and this is not the actual reason why the two parted ways.

As reported, one of the major things that led to the dissolution of the marriage was the fact that the two had drifted apart, owing to the fact that they had no shared interests. Once, Paul stated:

"We were opposites and we were attracted to each other for a long time. Opposites in everything.

Another thing that contributed to the end of their marriage was the fact that Linda was tired of being in Paul's shadow.
