Official proceedings in the Madonna-Guy Ritchie divorce will begin Friday in in London, The Associated Press reports.

London's High Court lists "Ciccone M L v Ritchie G S" as one of 16 cases for "matrimonial and civil partnership causes for pronouncement of decree." The two -- who announced they were calling it quits Oct. 15 after 7 1/2 years of marriage -- most likely will not be in court.

After a judge grants the couple a preliminary divorce decree tomorrow, their split should be finalized in about six weeks.

Look back at Madonna's many flings.

Meanwhile, Britain's Evening Standard reports that the two have reached a settlement and that Ritchie will not accept any of Madonna's money.

But Ritchie has insisted on sharing custody of the couple's two children, Rocco, 8, and adopted son David, 3.

An announcement about the couple's divorce is expected to be made at the end of the month, the newspaper said.

Look back at Hollywood's ugliest divorces.

Madonna's rep has yet to comment.
