Yesterday we reported the fierce pet custody battle between the recently split Marilyn Manson and his beautiful wife, pin up girl Dita Von Teese. We thought it couldn’t get any crazier; after all, it’s not every day that two kitty cats and a couple of dachshunds become the focus of a celebrity divorce. Houses in the ‘bu, luxury SUV’s and human offspring, yes. Balls of fluff, yapping pups and living beings that need their poop scooped; not so much.

Today People Magazine is reporting an even nuttier fact: Manson and 19-year-old semi-star Evan Rachel Wood are sitting in a tree (K-I-S-S-I-N-G). According to the mag:

“Dita is heartbroken, she didn’t see this coming,” says a source close to the burlesque dancer and MAC cosmetics model. “His partying contributed to the split as well.”

Manson, 38, and Wood have been friends for some time. According to his official website, Manson first met Wood when he asked her to be in his upcoming horror film, Phantasmagoria: The Visions of Lewis Carroll.

In addition, she posed for a watercolor that he painted, and attended the opening of his new Hollywood art gallery, the Celebritarian Corporation Gallery of Fine Art, last Halloween.

“It came as kind of a shock,” Wood told Rolling Stone about being asked to pose. “I was beyond flattered.”

Lindsay Lohan, who was rumored to be Manson’s latest gal pal, must be crying all the way to AA, sobriety chip and water bottle of vodka in hand.
