We try so hard avoid celebrity gossip. We really, really do. However, whenever there’s buzz about a prominent celebrity filing for divorce (e.g., Kim Kardashian and Kanye West or Zoe Kravitz and Karl Glusman), people want to know whether the celebrities have a “no cheating clause” in their prenuptial agreement.
