| Linkin
Split |
Digital Noise reports: According to Celebrity
Justice Chester Bennington is going solo -- but we're not talking about
his relationship with his band mates in Linkin Park. Instead, he's splitting
with his wife, Samantha.
In court papers obtained by "CJ," Samantha
doesn't cite temptation, only the usual "irreconcilable differences" between
the once powerfully close couple. The papers also reveal that there are
issues over the custody of their three-year-old son, Draven.
Chester accuses his estranged wife of trying
to punish him by thwarting his visitation rights, stating, "I have every
ability to care and nurture him" [see full story for more]-
