As previously reported by AccessHollywood.com, the former couple met on Saturday for a divorce arbitration session in Pennsylvania.

A source close to Kate told People that the meeting was productive.
"This was the proceeding that essentially ended their marriage," the source told the mag. "Kate is just relieved that a very painful chapter of her life is nearly over, and she is looking forward to building a better, brighter future for herself and her kids."

According to the source, that future will include undisputed primary custody of the couple's brood.
"[Jon] didn't dispute Kate having primary custody of the kids," the source said, adding that his decision was not a surprise - and apparently, neither was the bouquet of roses that he brought to the table.
A source confirmed to Access that the roses never touched Kate's hands, "but the receptionist had a beautiful bouquet to take home for the day."

"In what should have been their most serious moment as a couple, Jon again resorted to a publicity stunt," the source said.

OrderlyLBrendasue, thank you for the effort. Your last two posts are much easier to read. I must say, I don't think a bipolar person would be bothered by shouting; Kate does a lot of it herself. Sorry to hear about your health problems. I hope things improve for you and otherwise you find strength and comfort and live the fullest life possible.report abuseposted November 25, 2009 7:01 PM PST

BrendasueI also have chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia and recently had cancer surgery.I'M in a lot of pain most of the time. I guess that makes you think I am hypochondriac. SO excuse me for making a mistake.report abuseposted November 25, 2009 5:50 AM PST

BrendasueOrderly, I am not shouting. I have arthritis and sometimes I hit the cap button by mistake. I don't realize it until i have already sent my post.So if that bothers you, maybe you are a little bi polar as you have accused Kate of being.report abuseposted November 25, 2009 5:28 AM PST
