Unhappily ever after

The Hague, Netherlands — The Netherlands’ Princess Margarita, who last year aired royal dirty laundry during a fight with her aunt Queen Beatrix, is now divorcing the husband who was at the center of it all.

The spat made headlines in the Netherlands for weeks last summer as a Dutch magazine published a series of tell-all interviews with Margarita.

She accused the Royal House of abusing its power to obtain confidential information about her husband and damage his reputation. The Royal House denied the charges but was embarrassed by Margarita’s tales of drinking and philandering by other members of the family.

Margarita separated from her husband, Edwin de Roy van Zuydewijn, earlier this year.

Dutch national broadcaster NOS said Friday that Margarita now plans to divorce Van Zuydewijn, citing Margarita’s lawyers. The lawyers said Margarita now regretted breaking the family’s tradition of keeping their affairs private, NOS reported.

What really bugs her

New York — Though she defined toughness in the “Alien” films, Sigourney Weaver wouldn’t make a good contestant on reality TV shows such as “Fear Factor.”

“Eating cockroaches and stuff wouldn’t be my favorite thing,” the 54-year-old actress tells People magazine.

“I was trying to kill a flying creature in my bedroom last night. It seemed to sprout more and more legs and arms. It was like a flying daddy longlegs. I didn’t know what it was, but I’m glad I didn’t have to eat it.”

Weaver co-stars in the thriller “The Village,” now in theaters.

Legal witch hunt?

New York — Lil’ Kim, whose perjury trial is set for early next year, says the charges against her are a “witch hunt against the hip-hop industry.”

Prosecutors say the rapper lied to a grand jury investigating a 2001 shooting allegedly involving members of her entourage. One man from a rival rap group was injured in the shooting.

Her former manager and co-defendant, Damion Butler, has been indicted for allegedly shooting a weapon during the incident and is serving a prison term on unrelated weapons charges.

Lil’ Kim, whose real name is Kimberly Jones, is accused of telling the grand jury that Butler was not present during the 2001 shooting. She is charged with conspiracy, perjury and obstruction.
