BAD BREAK UP

There are messy breakups and then there’s erecting a giant middle finger bronze garden sculpture aimed at your ex-wife.

Twitter user Lenka Tuohy, believed to be the daughter of Markovitz’s ex-wife, tweeted a picture of the statue earlier this week. She wrote: ‘How psychotic do you have to be to buy the house directly next to your ex wife and then put a statue up like that?!?! Real classy alan.’
