Winslet divorces husband for 'unreasonable behaviour'

December 13, 2001

The three-year marriage of Kate Winslet and Jim Threapleton has ended today in a "quickie divorce."

The decree nisi was granted on the grounds of Threapleton's unreasonable behaviour.

Winslet's petition was in a list of 30 cases approved at the High Court in London.

In court documents made public after the hearing, Winslet said her former husband's unreasonable behaviour ended in September.

She said she had had no contact with him since that date.

District Judge Waller presided over the 90-second hearing.

The decree nisi was granted three months after the Titanic star and her 27-year-old husband split up.

The couple met on the set of her film, Hideous Kinky, of which he was the assistant director.

They have a one-year-old daughter, Mia.

Since the split, Kate, 26, has been linked with Sam Mendes, 35, director of American Beauty.
