Why This Musical Guy Wants A Divorce

[Blind Gossip] This musician may be getting a divorce. It is very complicated, but we will try to simplify it for you.

He and his wife are constantly fighting over religion. He has decided that he wants a different life for himself.

Basically, he wants to divorce his wife and his religion. Why now?

He is working through some trauma that happened to him when he was a child. He was assaulted by an adult member of [the church]. It has impacted him his entire life. His wife insists that he talk to someone in the church about it, but the church is the one that protected the abuser.

That has got to be a confusing situation for him.

His wife has a famous name, so she may be trying to protect her own family from being swept up in a scandal.

We wish our musician well in working through all this!

    He’ll be pressured to stay involved with the Scientology Church, but hopefully he will leave eventually. Leaving Scientology will also mean his marriage will be over.

    scientology is the religion.
    good luck Beck…

    Optional: I hope he gets away and finds a way to heal from it. This “church” is a danger to all its members.

    Beck and śome Scientology hag. What will he do? Be harrassed by those jackholes for the remainder of his life. Dude, call Leah and Mike right now and speak your truth on camera. And good luck. You’re going to need it.

  26. Baileygirl says

    Beck. Complicated because in COS, the wife, children, all family members and friends in the “church” have to cut off contact with him. Messy with children involved-he will have partial custody at least. If the COS bends the rule on this for him and his wife’s family, that will not go unnoticed.

    Beck. Wife is the sister of Giovanni Ribisi, name Marissa. CO$ handles abuse horrible. Instead of outing the abuser, isolating them and letting the law handle it, they act like they have to hide it. How those adults treat children is a crime in itself. LRH treated children awfully in his writings.

    I hope he bolts. Quietly. But just walk.

    Wife: Baldwin

    Optional: He will probably get high and forget about divorcing either. He needs to be away from the entire entertainment world and heal.

    Beck (musician) and Marissa Ribissi (Giovanni’s twin sister). Scientology. Surreyyy but wake up and smell the hummus already people….

  45. TeacherKat says

    Beck and his wife Marissa Ribisi. Her mom is a manager of quite a few stars, most of whom are members of the church.

    Optional: Not sure, but I hope he makes a break and gets the kids in the process.

    Both raised in Scientology. He will get a divorce and leave $cieno

  55. spookie says

    OMG this is Beck! Beck is getting a divorce from Marisa Ribisi (Giovanni’s sister) and they’re both Scientologists (Beck was born into it, poor kid!)

  56. aaajailo says

    Beck & Marissa Ribisi are lifelong Scientologists.

    Beck wants to leave Scientology, like his niece Lucia Ribisi.

    The dam is about to break.

  58. matildablu says

    Beck and Marisa Ribisi. He’ll leave her and Scientology. Once the blinders are off, there’s no putting them back again.

    [Optional] What do you think he will do? Hopefully he’ll speak out against Scientology.

  60. CatInTheHat says

    Beck and Marissa Ribisi.
    Hopefully, he gets as far away from the cult as he can. If she can’t support him in that, he needs to leave her too. Getting help and trying to recover his mental health has to be his priority for now.

    Break free I hope! Doubt that the person who did it will ever face justice as they’ll be protected.

    Singer: Beck

    Wife: Marissa Ribisi

    What do you think he will do? I think he needs to get out of Scientology and if his wife isn’t wiling to support him then he should divorce her. I really hope he leaves that toxic church.

  83. Gachan says

    Oh no, don’t tell me it’s Beck. I really love his music and I think he is a really nice person (apart from his religion). It saddens me to think he was abused.
    Wife: Marisa Ribisi
    He should definitely divorce from that religion.

  90. zappy2050 says

    Definitely Beiber. I have worked with drug addicts and alcoholics for decades. Almost all have been abused in some way from childhood. Sometimes it was sexually, other times it was physical or verbal.
    He really needs intense counseling – BUT the counseling has to be done by someone who is very good. My heart broke when I heard he got married because he really need to get this counseling before involving someone else. Hopefully she doesn’t get pregnant – that would only make things worse.

  91. TruePatriot says

    This was my first thought too.

    Good luck to him. He makes great music and shouldn’t be compelled to stick with a ‘religion’ at all.
    Any so-called religion that ‘forces’ someone adhere to them is no religion.

  92. carriebradshaw says

    this explains why someone has to divorce because of the religion. but they are both second generation scientology.
    must be hard if You facing loosing relatives and friends if You want to leave this special kind of church.

  93. kellyinchains says

    This was my first thought as well. If it is Beck, I hope and pray that he finally gets away from that terrible CULT. Too bad Marissa is still blind to it. I hope he gets to see his child/ren, optimally, HE could get custody!! Good Luck to him!

    Bieber is with his pastor more than Hailey and he gone specifically to his pastor for counseling as they did their premarital counseling per his request ( Biebers). I do not see him all of a sudden changing his mind, and I think he introduced Hillson to Hailey
