A judge signed the final order of divorce for the 69-year-old disgraced movie producer and the 45-year-old Marchesa fashion designer last week on Thursday (July 8), the Los Angeles Times reports.
Marina is tackling some of the biggest headlines with her new single.
The “How to Be a Heartbreaker” singer-songwriter returned on Wednesday (April 14) with her new single and music video, “Purge the Poison.”
In her new song, Marina references several cultural events, including the #MeToo movement, Harvey Weinstein and Britney Spears‘ highly publicized head-shaving moment in 2007.
“2007 when size zero was the rage / Britney shaved her head and / All we did was call her crazed / Harvey Weinstein‘s gone to jail / Me Too went on to unveil / Truth and all its glory / The ending of a story,” she sings.
“Need to purge the poison from my system / Until human beings listen / Tell me, who do you think you are?”

Harvey Weinstein is seeking an appeal after being convicted of rape and sexual assault in 2020.
Varietyreports that the disgraced producer has filed paperwork for an appeal in the verdict, arguing that the judge made numerous errors that resulted in a rigged trial.
His attorney, Barry Kamins, stated that the judge should have excluded Juror #11, saying she could not have been impartial because she had written a novel that involved sexual exploitation by predatory older men.
Harvey was convicted last year of two counts: third-degree rape and first-degree sexual assault; he was acquitted on two of the more serious charges of “predatory sexual assault”.
He is currently serving a 23-year sentence in a state prison near Buffalo, N.Y., and is about to be extradited to California to face even more charges.
The 48-year-old former actress and lifestyle entrepreneur spoke to SiriusXM’s Bruce Bozzi about moving on from acting and how Harvey was one of the influences in doing so.
Harvey had been Gwyneth‘s boss as Miramax, which he co-founded in 1979, and under the company, she starred in Emma and Shakespeare in Love, which she won an Oscar for.
“This wasn’t conscious at the time, but I started to feel, and, you know, frankly, I think part of my, part of the shine of acting wore off, you know, being in such intense public scrutiny, being a kid who’s like living every breakup on every headline,” Gwyneth shared of her decision to show up less and less on the big screen.
“Like I’m such a homebody, you know, me, I like to be with my old friends and cook and squeeze my kids. Like I don’t want to be alone in a hotel room in Budapest for six weeks,” Gwyneth also said. “Like, it’s just not who I am.”
She added, “So if you compound those things with the fact that like, you know, to be totally candid, I had a really rough boss for most of my movie career at Miramax… So you’re like, ‘I don’t know if this is really my calling.’ So I’m still trying to parse out what came from what, and you know, where, how my life changed course. But I think that stew is a big piece of it.”
Harvey Weinstein is being “closely monitored” after falling sick in prison.
The 68-year-old disgraced film producer is being monitored with a high fever and has been tested for coronavirus following a possible exposure, People reports.
Representatives for Harvey shared a statement, saying he “has a fever and is being closely monitored by the excellent medical staff at Wende CF for which the entire legal defense team is grateful.”
“It should come as no surprise that Mr. Weinstein has numerous maladies and conditions including a heart condition, high blood pressure and spinal stenosis,” the statement continues. “We are working with the NYSDOCCS and the excellent team at Wende CF to ensure Mr. Weinstein receives the proper medical attention he needs.”
According to TMZ, Harvey was tested for COVID early Tuesday (November 17), and was reportedly placed in isolation for 72 hours.
News of Harvey‘s illness comes after he tested positive for coronavirus back in March, right after he started his prison sentence at the Wende Correctional Facility near Buffalo, New York.
