Al and Tipper "Grew Apart"

Latest news is that former Vice President Al Gore and his wife, Tipper, are breaking up after 40 years of marriage.

Reportedly, Al and Tipper decided to split after careful consideration. Ostensibly, there was a dramatic climate change in the marriage. All the warmth disappeared.

Of course, gossipy-type individuals may suggest that the breakup sets the stage for a Tipper Gore tell-all book.
