On Wednesday, Michael Madsen filed for divorce and accused his estranged wife of causing their son's suicide.

DeAnna Madsen, 66, was cited by her ex-husband, Madsen, as having irreconcilable differences as the reason for their split. However, in a written statement included in her court document, DeAnna made explosive allegations against Madsen.

The 'irreconcilable differences' reason in the Petition does not accurately reflect the divorce filing," his statement in the petition, obtained by Planet Chronicle Digital, stated. "I have been separated from Respondent since my son's death by suicide on 1/25/22. I believe Respondent was responsible for his suicide through her neglect, drinking, and alcoholism.

"My personal issues were also significantly contributed to by the Respondent," Madsen stated. "I am a victim in an abusive, co-dependent, and toxic relationship that resulted in the Respondent breaking into my home and having me falsely arrested for DV. Once incarcerated, the end of any marriage or relationship is inevitable, and mine was no different."

The Los Angeles Sheriffs' Department and DeAnna have been contacted by Planet Chronicle Digital.

After an incident at his Malibu home on August 18, Madsen was arrested for misdemeanor spousal battery, as previously confirmed by Planet Chronicle Digital.

At 1:40 a.m., the "Kill Bill" star was taken to the Malibu/Lost Hills Sheriff's Station and put in jail.

Madsen, 66, was released shortly after posting $20,000 bond.

Deputies from the Malibu/Lost Hills Sheriff's Department were dispatched to a "family disturbance" call on the west side of the affluent community shortly after midnight.

At the time, Lt. Adam Zeko informed Planet Chronicle Digital that a female adult claimed her husband pushed her and locked her out of their residence, according to the informant.

"According to the initial investigation, it was found that Michael Madsen was involved in a domestic incident with his wife. As a result, he was arrested for misdemeanor spousal battery."

At the age of 26, Hudson, the son of Madsen and DeAnna, took his own life.

Donnie Brasco was stunned by Hudson's sudden death, as he had just finished his first tour in the U.S. Army.

"At the time, Madsen told The Hollywood Reporter that he didn't notice any signs of depression. He found the situation to be tragic and sad. He was trying to make sense of everything and understand what had happened. Although he knew that people face typical life challenges with finances, he was surprised that his friend wanted a family. He was looking forward to his future, so it was mind-blowing to him. Despite his efforts, Madsen couldn't comprehend what had happened."

In 1996, Madsen and DeAnna got married and have two children, Calvin and Luke. Additionally, Hudson has two half brothers, Christian and Max, who are Madsen's children with ex-wife Jeannine Bisignano.
