Lars Ulrich Splits With Wife

The New York Post reports that Metallica drummer Lars Ulrich and his wife, Skylar, are splitting up. Ulrich had been spotted kissing sexy blond 'Gladiator' actress Connie Nielsen at Hue in the West Village the other night. "Lars and Skylar are very private people," a rep for Lars revealed. "They have been separated since March. They didn't think it was anyone's business, but since you've got the story, they're going public with it on Metallica's Web site. They will share custody of their two kids." The message posted on their official website on Monday: "Lars and Skylar Ulrich are getting divorced after seven years of marriage. The couple have been quietly going through divorce proceedings and separated since March. They will share custody of their two children."
