Why did Al and Tipper Gore divorce

They were married for 40 years when they separated....they were both in their mid 60s. It seems like so many straight couples just stay together after 25 or 30 years of marriage and agree to lead separate lives rather than go through divorce at that age

I'm curious if there was something going on there

Tipper tippled a bit too often.

Why do you care? Same reason 90% of people do.

Tipper is the original Karen.

They were married in 1970 and have been separated in 2010. Apparently they have not divorced.

Separating for a decade-plus but remaining legally married in your 60's is not the worst idea if you want to fuck around but do not want the headache of dividing the assets or worrying about who is going to pull the plug on you when you die of old age.

Rumor in DC was that Al cheated.

But their marriage hadn't been a particularly close or easy one for many years.

I know someone whose mother left her marriage at age 75. Seems crazy but apparently the old man had been an abusive prick and was only getting worse as he he got older and her daughter and sil picked her up one day and convinced her to file for divorce.

Tipper wanted to pursue her dominatrix hobby full-time.

To give him the opportunity to spread his huge cock around before the end!

Because he was totally insufferable.

He became a sex poodle and fucked everyone in sight.

Because she was bad for his image. She came across as very moral majority. Like someone else said, the original Karen.

A coworker was a Whitehouse staffer during the late 90s/early 00s. He said Tipper was a freaking nightmare. Prone to outbursts and just a nasty, miserable person to deal with. Pickles (Laura Bush), on the other hand, was as sweet as pie. Maybe a case of mean drunk vs. happy drunk?

All the kids with Christer parents had a clean and dirty version of all of their albums. It was a boon to the bands
