Most Divorced Musicians

Musicians have a horrible reputation for substance abuse and divorce. All of us can probably name ten musicians off the top of our heads who lost their battle with drugs or alcohol, but can you name the most divorced rockers of all time?

I suppose divorce among rock stars is to be expected. After all, musicians are away from home for very long periods of time, and are worshiped by adoring fans almost 24/7. When you throw drugs and alcohol into that mix you have a recipe for a disastrous marriage.

Well, the Huffington Post recently published a list of musicians who have all been divorced at least three times. Of course, I could not resist the urge to click the link when a friend posted it on Facebook. This playlist includes one song by the top most divorced musicians, according to the Huffington Post.

Most divorced musicians and the number of times each was divorced:
Gregg Allman - 6 times
Jerry Lee Lewis - 6 times
Mike Love (The Beach Boys) - 5 times
Neal Schon (Journey) - 4 times
Roger Waters - 3 times
Richard Wright (Pink Floyd) - 3 times
Phil Collins - 3 times
Tommy Lee - 3 times
