It was saddening to read in the paper today that after many many years, Barbie and Ken have split up. Mattel claim that they just "drifted apart". Celebrity relationships are always under a lot of pressure, and so it is amazing that this one lasted as long as it did. I wish them both luck for the future.
One can only hope that this won't lead to a load of copycat breakups from other toys seeking a bit of publicity. If I read tomorrow that Mr Potato Head has split from Mrs Potato Head I'll be quite lacking in sympathy for them.
