David Arquette Files for Divorce From Courteney Cox

After nearly a two-year separation, David Arquette has officially filed for divorce from his wife of 11 years, Courteney Cox. 

David filed papers in the Los Angeles Superior Court on June 8, citing irreconcilable differences as the reason for the divorce, according to E! News. The Scream 4 star is asking for joint legal and physical custody of the couple's daughter, Coco, who turns eight years old tomorrow.
