Al and Tipper Gore Divorce: No affair involved

The world is shocked with the announcement of Al and Tipper Gore plan
for a divorce on Tuesday.

Former US President Bill Clinton's Vice President Albert "Al" Gore Jr
and wife Mary Elizabeth "Tipper" Aitcheson-Gore have announced their
separation Tuesday, June 1st, via an email sent out to their friends
and associates. It says:

"We are announcing today that after a great deal of thought and
discussion, we have decided to separate. This is much a mutual and
mutually supportive decision that we have made together following
process of long and careful consideration."

That is absolutely shocking because they've just celebrated their 40th
wedding anniversary last May 19. A lot of people are really wondering
why they have to separate when they're old already. Al is 62 while
Tipper turns 62 in August.

So, is there an extra marital affair involved? The couple's friends
reportedly denied there is a third party in the separation.

Al and Tipper have 4 children: Karenna (36), Kristin (32, who also
divorced husband in May 2009), Sarah (31) and Albert III (27).

Al Gore is also an environment advocate and a Nobel Peace Prize winner
having actively campaigned for climate change. His docu "An
Inconvenient Truth" won for him an Oscar in 2007.

He was supposed to come to Manila, Philippines for a climate change
forum called "Face the Inconvenient Truth" but was moved to June 8,
that's 6 days from now. With a new phase in his family life, Al is
definitely facing a not so convenient truth.
