Shania Twain & Hubby Split
ok ^ | 5-15-2008

Robert “Mutt” Lange is no longer still the one for Shania Twain.

The country/pop superstar and her music producer husband are splitting after 14 years of marriage, her rep confirms to OK!.

“Shania Twain and her husband, music producer Robert “Mutt” Lange, are separating after 14 years of marriage,” Jason Owen tells OK!. “This is a private matter and there will be no further comment at this time.”

The 42-year-old singer met Mutt when he was recruited to work on her album in the early 1990s. They married on December 28, 1993 and have a 6-year-old son, Eja D’Angelo.

At the beginning of their relationship, the couple weathered much flack and criticism because of their 17-year age difference while others felt Shania was using the red-hot producer to further her career. In response to their detractors, the two wrote “You’re Still the One,” which became Shania's biggest hit to date.

I was going to say “and she’s my second”, but my first might read this...

Stage make-up does wonders.

Mainly by his own choice, you don’t hear much about Lange, but he’s actually produced some of the top selling rock albums of all time (think AC/DC and Def Leppard - to name just a couple). Wrote a few hit songs also.

He’ll be 60 this November. He’s almost as old as my mom. Kinda weird considering she’s about my age.

I didn’t know he’d been married twice before but I heard he’s a recluse and a strict teetotaler.

The first album they did together was great. When she started all the pop crap she went down hill fast. Id still hit it.

I always feel bad when I cause a break up like this.

I told her it couldn’t go anywhere, but she insisted on trying.

I had never heard of Lange so I looked him up. Quite an interesting fellow I would say. He has to have a ton of money as there is a long list of artist and bands he’s been involved with who have made it big. It is said that there are very few pictures of him because he purchases them to keep them out of the press. That could be a lucrative business just following him around, taking his picture and then selling it to him. If you could get near him that is.

I think he has kinda looked 60 since his 30’s. Seems like a regular haircut would have gone a long way.

I think that might be the clearest picture I’ve ever seen of him. He’s very good at staying anonymous while being famous.
