Our sources do tell us that, for now, Christine and Christian’s relationship feels irrevocably broken — but until a divorce filing is in … you never know what might happen. All we know is that Christine is dead-set on getting an additional legal forcefield around her ASAP.
As we reported … the emergency protective order provided to her by police lapses in 7 days — so by Wednesday, Christine will need to file for a TRO if she wants additional legal protection.
Christian, of course, was arrested twice in 2 days this week stemming from an alleged incident that cops say involved him throwing a sack with glass at her .. and hitting their kid.
