Dixie Chick Member Divorces

Alexis Devan
It was reported today by the The San Antonio Express-News, that 35 year old Emily Robison, Singer/Songwriter/Musician of the wildly popular country music trio The Dixie Chicks has divorced her 43 year old husband Charlie Robison (whom is also a country singer). The couple married in 1999 and had three children (Charles Augustus "Gus", and twins Julianna Tex and Henry Benjamin. The singer was forthcoming in Conceive magazine discussing her fertility issues with the press and admitted to using IVF treatment to conceive the twins.

A representative for the singer issued a typical PR comment regarding the divorce of the couple which said, They "remain close friends and their family is the priority and will continue to be." Reportedly, her husband filed for divorce in January and divorced yesterday afternoon at the Bexar County Courthouse . They listed the reason for divorce in their filing as their marriage had "become insupportable because of discord or conflict of personalities." At least it is different than the often used "irreconcilable differences"

Many fans have expressed their delight for the theory that divorce is great for the creative process. Emily is well known for playing a laundry list of instruments including the banjo, dobro, guitar, papoose, bass, mandolin, accordion, and the sitar (many of which I have no clue what they are).
