Robin Thicke and Paula Patton faking split for publicity?

By

Robin Thicke has been very busy promoting his new album entitled "Paula," an album that aims to get ex-wife Paula Patton back.

The reason behind the divorce is not clear, but reports say that it might have something to do with an alleged three-way relationship with a massage therapist--a report that Thicke denied.

The "Blurred Lines" singer and the "2 Guns" actress had been together since they were teenagers. They married in 2005 and have one sone together. They announced their separation on February this year.

"I came right off a tour and I had all these songs and all these ideas and feelings in my heart. And I went right into the studio. I wrote all the songs in about three weeks and we recorded the album in about a month," Thicke said about the album.

In a recent report by E! News, Thicke recently had a listening party in Los Angeles, but Patton was not in attendance. He was reportedly wearing his wedding ring.

"Thanks to my closest friends and family for helping me to celebrate. This is just the beginning. #Paula," Thicke said on Twitter.

There are some rumors going around, however, that all of this could be staged, and that the couple is using the split for publicity.

Vice's Noisey said: "But why is Thicke doing this? Why go through all the effort of publicly embarrassing yourself just to sell a few extra records? The answer may lie in Robin's quest for legitimacy. Thicke is playing the long con with this album push, masquerading a serious R&B project under the very transparent veil of public humiliation."

"Thicke is taking Usher's formula for Confessions, grinding it up into a very fine powder, mainlining it as a way to thin out the pure Cheez-Wiz that runs through his veins, and then freebasing what he couldn't melt on a spoon. The fact that it (probably) isn't real frees him of the pesky burden of discretion that most people deal with when in the throes of relationship woes," it adds.

What do you think? Is it possible that the two are still together, and just doing this for fame? Or is the relationship really over?
