Rocker Kid Rock decided to divorce Pamela Anderson when her comments about
his family upset his son.
The rock singer finally came to the decision to split with the Baywatch
star last year (06) when she criticized his mother and sister in front of
his teenage son Robert James Ritchie Jr.
He says, "It had stuff to do with the pre-nup and the post-nup. It
had stuff to do with lying to me.
"But when I saw it starting to affect my son, when she would talk
down about my mother and about my sister - two people who were very
instrumental in raising my son with me, when these things started to go
on. You know, I had uprooted everything that I had known to do everything
I could for her. I moved
from Michigan, a small town. I bought a house in Malibu. I uprooted my
son, who I had raised as a single father there for 14 years, put him in
Malibu High School. All these things.
"And when I saw it starting to affect him, that's when I stepped
back and I was like, un-nnh. That's it. And that's the morning I filed for
divorce."
