David Arquette and Courteney Cox‘s separation came as unpleasant news last week, but some outlets are doing their best to make matters seem worse than they are.

There was already the made up story about Arquette firing his fling Jasmine Waltz from a club job (which actually didn’t even exist) and speculative reports that Cox is beginning to date other men (which she is not).

Now the National Enquirer has jumped on the bandwagon, claiming that the couple’s “divorce” is “getting ugly.”

First things first: There is no Cox and Arquette “divorce.” As a rep for the actor confirms to Gossip Cop, “They are separated,” but there is “no talk of divorce at all.”

So the Enquirer‘s premise is totally false.

What about the specifics?

According to the tabloid, allegations that Cox “may have cheated” with “Cougar Town” co-star Brian Van Holt mean that Arquette will “go for the jugular” and demand half of Cox’s $100 million fortune.

Except that Cox didn’t cheat with Van Holt.

The Enquirer contends that the split is “shaping up as one of Hollywood’s nastiest and costliest divorces ever.”

Really? Because the affectionate couple hugged and smiled together while watching daughter Coco at her horse show just days after the separation was announced.

Doesn’t seem like Cox and Arquette are in the midst of a historically “nasty” breakup, does it?

And as Arquette’s rep reminds us, “They still have their business together,” adding, the Enquirer hit piece is “all b.s.”

Couldn’t have said it better ourselves.
