Michael Madsen filed for divorce Wednesday and accused his estranged wife of driving their son to suicide. Madsen, 66, cited "irreconcilable differences" as his reason for the split but added a written statement to his court document with explosive allegations against DeAnna Madsen. "The ‘irreconcilable differences’ reason in the Petition does not adequately describe the divorce filing," his statement in the petition, obtained by Fox News Digital, said. "I have been separated from Respondent since my son's death by suicide on 1/25/22.

I believe Respondent drove him to this by her neglect, drinking and alcoholism. "Respondent also significantly contributed to my personal issues as well," Madsen continued. "I am a victim in an abusive, co-dependent, and toxic relationship that culminated in the Respondent breaking into my residence and having me wrongfully arrested for DV.

Once the cell bars close on you, it's the final curtain on any marriage or relationship, and mine was no exception." "I have been separated from Respondent since my son's death by suicide on 1/25/22." — Michael Madsen Fox News Digital has reached out to representatives for the Los Angeles Sheriffs' Department along with DeAnna.
