Jenny Sanford Files For Divorce

South Carolina First Lady Jenny Sanford filed for divorce today, saying that reconciliation with her husband, Gov. Mark Sanford, is simply not possible.

Because Mark and I are public figures, we have naturally had less privacy with which to deal with our difficulties than do other couples. Indeed, I know it will soon become known so I choose to release this brief notice that I am now filing for divorce. This came after many unsuccessful efforts at reconciliation, yet I am still dedicated to keeping the process that lies ahead peaceful for our family.

Jenny moved out of the governor's mansion in August after news of Mark's extramarital affair with a woman in Argentina. She's asking for prayers.
