Sarkozy's wife had enough of the French President...Announces DIVORCE

"I don't see myself as a first lady. It bores me. I'm not politically correct" Cecilia Sarkozy in 2005

Cecilia played no public part in her husband's election campaign this year, did not vote for him in the second round and only appeared fleetingly alongside him at three public engagements since his May victory -- the last time in July.

Ouch..it has to hurt a little bit when you're the President of France and your wife won't even vote for your re election.
