After 25 years of marriage, Metallica singer James Hetfield is said to have filed for divorce from his wife Francesca. According to sources close to the former couple, the divorce was filed in Colorado earlier this year. However, court records were never made public as the couple previously kept the information secret. Insiders also told the newspaper that the couple remained in touch as they raised their three children together. James and Francesca met in 1992 and married in 1997. They have a son Castor and two daughters Cali (20) and Marcella (16). The singer and his family are said to be in Vail, Colorado, Francesca’s hometown.
I just read about James Hetfield’s divorce.
A very sad parting after 25 years. No wonder he’s been having a hard time lately, but he still has a big tour coming up!

Francesca’s net worth
Francesca Hetfield is a costume designer from the United States. She was born on January 27, 1970 in the Argentine province of Rosario. After finishing high school, Francesca started working as a waitress in a local pub and didn’t enroll in college for higher education. At the age of 23, she started her career in the field of costume design. Francesca has an estimated net worth of $1 million, according to ABTC. Most of the money comes from her career as a costume designer. According to reports, she met her husband James while working as a designer for Metallica’s heavy metal band.
Despite their wedding in 1992, James and Francesca have mostly kept their private lives hidden from the public. The latter, on the other hand, is often seen on tour with her husband and was even featured in the 2004 documentary Metallica: Some Kind of Monster.
Francesca Hetfield helped James Hetfield in his battle with addiction.
James Hetfield has always been honest about his addiction and difficulty drinking. The artist said on The Joe Rogan Experience in 2017 that he went for treatment more than two decades ago out of fear of losing his family:
“Fear is a significant motivator for me in this.” The thought of losing my family worries me the most. That was the lowest I got, believing that my family would be torn apart because of my actions on the road.”
He said that Francesca “kicked” him out of the house and forced him to seek treatment to solve his problems:
“My wife kicked me out of the house and I lived alone somewhere else.” That’s not what I wanted… [My wife] I did the right thing to kick my bitches out of the house, which horrifies me. “Hey, you don’t just go to the therapist and talk about this,” she added. I have to go somewhere and sort this out.’ That’s exactly what I did.”
James Hetfield is said to have been sober since 2002. Before that, he mentioned that Francesca helped him deal with personal problems in a “constructive way”. In 2005, the musician told NPR that his wife helped him “grow up” as he became “natural” to his addiction and temper. Unfortunately, James and Francesca Hetfield’s romance ended earlier this year, although the pair have yet to officially announce that they are divorcing.
