Marie Ann Thiebaud – The Shania Twain divorce is being blamed on Marie Ann Thiebaud, a 38-year old Swiss woman who worked for Twain and husband Mutt Lange as their estate manager.

Mutt Lange claims Marie Ann Thiebaud is not to blame for their split, but Shania’s reps say that the singer was devastated by her husband’s affair with the pretty blonde estate manager who ran their country chateau in Tour-de-Peilz, Switzerland.

Shania Twain, 42, and Mutt Lange, 59, were married in 1993 after a six-month courtship. They have a 6-year-old son, Eja (pronounced “Asia”) D’Angelo Lange.

Here’s the only known photo showing Marie Ann Thiebaud with Mutt Lange, Shania Twain and their son Eja Lange. Thiebaud is the tall blonde behind Shania helping Lange with the luggage.

A close friend of Shania’s told People magazine that Twain is “devastated. This came out of left field … She loved him.”
Longtime friends close to the situation say that Marie Ann Thiébaud, a longtime secretary and manager of the couple’s chateau outside Geneva, Switzerland, was at the center of the break-up.

“It’s absolutely not the reason for the separation,” famously reclusive producer Mutt Lange said when asked about the alleged affair. He also denied that he was in a romantic relationship with Thiébaud: “I’m not, no,” he said. “It’s not true.”
“Mutt and Marie Ann left their spouses for each other and are still in a relationship,” another source told People.
Shania is working on another album to be released this year. Her new CD features an updated version of her signature song, “Man! I Feel Like There’s Another Woman!”
And that’s the latest news on Marie Ann Thiebaud.

Well.. I’d like to say just Robert Mutt is a big idiot. It’s not easy to find a woman like Shania Twain these days. Besides being a pretty woman she’s a big mother and deeply talented. I am a brazilian fan of Shania Twain and I’m always updated about her news, her hits etc. So, I can say that I am as devasted as her about this awful news. I just hope that Marie Ann is worth because is not that easy to replace Shania at all.Being a strong woman like Shania is, I know she will get over this pretty soon. She defitively didn’t deserve it at all. Another (bad ) comment: Mutt was lucky of having Shania in his arms because she is more beautiful than him.

“No longer the One”
They said, “I bet they’ll never make it”
But just look…at…us….LETTING GO
We’re NO LONGER….TOGETHER, NO.

This is truly sad to hear. Shania is one of the most talented women in the history of country music and does not deserve to endure this, if the reports are true. She will move on with her life and become stronger as a result of this. There is no other woman with greater beauty than Shania and can move you with a song. I wish her and Eja Lang the very best as they make adjustments in their lives. All my thoughts are with you Shania.

If it is true, the other woman is ugly. Shania is beautiful! But my God in the music industry every girl is after your man. I just let these creepy women take the guy I’m with if he wants them. It’s called later dude! If you are remotely hot in this industry and a woman, you get more ass than a toilet seat at any age!

Shame on Mutt Lange for just letting his marriage go as he seems to have done. Shame on him for putting himself before his little boy, his family, and the woman who expressed her love for him so sweetly in lyric and in song. “Mutt” is living up to his name, and in appearance could not be more unattractive.
Also, it always seemed so heartless of him to pull Shania far away from her home and family to live in Switzerland and New Zealand.
Ggrrrrrrrrrrrrhhhhhhhh!!!
May 21st, 2008 at 4:12 am
Just shouldn’t happen to someone so talented and beautiful especially with the tragedy of her parents. Lots of guy like us would be so happy with someone as gorgeous as Shania. I was just wondering what happened to Shania as I was recently speaking to a gentleman in Timmins Ontario and since Shania is from there.. I Googled her and found she lives in Switzerland and is worth $300-$500 million…but what impressed me the most is she has the hallmark of an exceptional person…humility..as her wealth never got the best of her.
I do really wish her well and I could only hope to meet someone in life such as her. One day..someone such as her is rare.

mutt lange is well, not the sort of guy a girl would go for. But for shania this is a difficult time, because she loved this guy who is the father of her child, and who helped her in her career. But I hope she realizes she is the one who worked hard, not him, she is the one who gave birth to a beautiful boy, went through the pregnancy, not him. If he did what he did to her, then Shania let him go, there are better times for you ahead, you have to believe that, some of us who have been through this know it to be true.
May 21st, 2008 at 10:06 am
haha śmieszne to:)
May 21st, 2008 at 12:27 pm
Well said Lilly. Mutt is a fool for leaving one of th most desirable women in the world! Shania provided a loving home and was being a wonderful mother and wife. She is so old fashioned in nature and family oriented. Marriage meant a lot to her and seems Mutt likes to change it up every few years. Jerk. At least now Shania can go home to Canada and be close to a loving family and not isolated like in Switzerland and New Zealand with her wacko husband. I feel so sorry for you Shania. You’ll get through this, you put 110% in to this and it must be hurtful. God bless.
May 21st, 2008 at 1:04 pm
We were sad to hear that Shania Twain was separating from her husband of 14yrs. I believe that only time will heal her pain. If only SOME men would remember that the brain is in the head and not between their extremeties. Realism and good judgement doesn’t live in the area below. Love you Shania. May God shine his blessings on you and your son.
May 21st, 2008 at 3:44 pm
I am from Timmins Ontario, born and raised and “IF” the rumours are true, it truly is a shame but we cannot assume without proof yet. What is it with men, always looking for greener pastures.. Oh well, she doesn’t need him anyway,, she’s intelligent, talented, beautiful and wealthy… Goodbye “mutt”, hello “world”…
May 21st, 2008 at 8:08 pm
Hmmm…’mutt’ his name says it all- but it should be dirty dawggggggg!!!
…’Shania’ her strong roots will pull her through. Come home Shania. We know you will make it. Keep your head high, Spirit strong, looking up to GrandMother Moon.
May 21st, 2008 at 8:48 pm
Shame on all of you for being idiots…
How do you know that Shania isn’t a royal bitch?
May 21st, 2008 at 9:17 pm
I think that is pretty rude and ignorant to say TJ!
God bless Shania, she has done more than any man could hope for. Love ya.
May 21st, 2008 at 10:46 pm
What an a**h***
The guy is pompous and arrogant. Shania is better off. And jerk or not, you don’t CHEAT on a spouse. They have a son. It’s very, very sad.
May 22nd, 2008 at 2:04 am
I think that it’s naive to always lay blame on a man for “running around”. Just because someone appears good in a spotlight, doesn’t dictate their behavior outside the circus.
It sure wouldn’t be the first time a woman in history had faked anything.
I’m not saying he did anything or she did anything to provoke a split. But what I AM saying is you sexist scumbags should firstly find out facts, and approach both sides equally..
Choosing sides in a situation where you have no idea of the facts, reasoning or direction is about as intelligent as lemmings falling off cliffs just because you like to follow the herd..
Are you people human? Have you not conscious thought and logic?
May 22nd, 2008 at 2:20 am
Sorry, let me clarify that a bit more..
For ANYONE to assume anything about their relationship is just plain stupid, and all of you should serious either get lives or have your heads examined by psychological professionals.
And as far as my fake comment..
Hair, nails, boobs, make-up, bras, teeth… Just what about women in spotlights IS in fact NOT fake?
So bite me.. And get lives!
Sexist retards… (That’s my psychological diagnosis)
May 22nd, 2008 at 7:16 am
Just another Shania basher eh? Loving this moment aren’t you?
Don’t anyone pay attention to this guy TJ (Total Jerk)
Shania I wish you the best. Family was and is your top priority, it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure that out. I really thought you found true love that would last. Mutt was an odd character. Shania you deserve the best. Take good care of Eja.
May 22nd, 2008 at 8:08 am
The fact is that each party in a marriage is 100% responsible for their role IN the marriage, BUT an affair is 100% the fault of the cheating spouse…it has nothing to do with Shania and everything to do with a decision her husband made – he’s broken somehow and no matter what went on inside their marriage only Mutt is 100% to blame for the choice he made to go outside their marriage for a little nookie. That being said, it is not up to us to determine the cause of their breakup. I do hope that she can move forward and be stronger as a result, and not bash herself for his wrong choices.
May 22nd, 2008 at 8:21 am
I’m not bashing Shania, you retard, I’m bashing you morons!
May 22nd, 2008 at 8:28 am
Unlike the rest of you, I don’t know her or Robert as personally as you all do.. HAHAHA
Idiots…
May 22nd, 2008 at 9:31 am
TJ – I think you should try some anger management. Hopefully Mutt with by happy with his new “mutt”. Shania, come home to Canada.
May 22nd, 2008 at 11:03 am
If you all know her so well, why are you posting well wishes on a blog?
Stupid bleeding hearts…

New photo of Marie Anne Thiebaud with Shania Twain:

May 22nd, 2008 at 11:57 am
If it is indeed true, why on Earth would Mutt leave the gorgeous lady that Shania is for that?
I guess he does like to trade in his wives like used cars after a decade or so. Shameful.
May 22nd, 2008 at 12:22 pm
The “other woman” looks old enough to be Shania’s mother. Mutt Lange definately had a beautiful, talented, intelligent wife and cheated on her with that. The other woman is a mutt as well.
May 24th, 2008 at 2:30 pm
COME ON SHANIA IS NO VIRGIN, NOR AM I, SO THIS IS JUST AN EXCUSE TO CUT THE TIES WITH THE MUTT. MAYBE BEST SEX WINS.

May 30th, 2008 at 6:59 pm
Again, for every hot ass woman out there, there is at least one man that is tired of fucking her. I do not understand that at all.
May 31st, 2008 at 9:54 am
Wow- what shallow comments. I live just outside Nashville and Ms. Twain (AKA Eileen Edwards) does not have a good reputation in these parts. She is known to be rude and unpleasant. I fly for a major airline and have not encountered her, but our crews that have say that she was a royal B. That said, no one deserves to be cheated on if that is indeed what happened. Who knows? But seriously, if Halle Barry, Jennifer Aniston and Shania Twain can’t hold a man’s interest – hat should tell you that it takes more than some silicone and botox to make a man love you. Besides, men are less interested in how sexy YOU are than in how sexy you think THEY are…sounds like Mutt needed some love. If he’s a cheater, then I hope he gets a bad case of Herpes. If he just wants out, then maybe Shania/Eileen should rethink what she put into her marriage. It’s a shame for their son, though.
May 31st, 2008 at 11:55 pm
Fo those of u that think that Shania has it all…. talent looks etc….. looks yes talent NONE Mutt made her he is the producer. She would be nowhere but maybe waitress at diner without Mutt. Is he wrong… yes. Proof what is Shania working on now …. oh yes redo of feels like a woman talentless totally.
June 1st, 2008 at 7:33 am
You are full of crap and you know it too LuckyDuck. Shania flies in an out of Nashville all the time right and your crews encounter her? lol Shania flies privately and she has people. silicone and botox? You sound like a real jerk and you’re probably on Mutt’s wavelength.
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:43 am
TJ, you’re a moron. Go take another toke.
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:44 am
So are you Robert. You must be Mutts gay lover.
June 2nd, 2008 at 3:37 pm
I heard that Shania joined a religious outfit that glorifies abstinence from sex. Well, if he wasn’t getting it, no wonder. Why would he want the overhead of marriage to Shania if he wasn’t gettin any. The woman needs to put out to keep a man, even if she is Shania Twain.
June 3rd, 2008 at 6:59 am
That is a dumb thing to say VH. Sara Evans was putting out and it didn’t safe her marriage. Mutt was the one who got them into practicing purity. So much for being a spiritual man. Hopefully Shania can truly find a guy who appreciates how wonderful of a human being she is.
June 3rd, 2008 at 12:37 pm
The point is, he should have divorced her if he no longer wanted to be with Shania – there is never a good enough reason to cheat.
Marie Ann Thiébaud is a whore for playing the game.
June 5th, 2008 at 9:18 am
Shania is unquestionably beautiful and talented (albeit without Mutt) but no one knows what goes on behind closed doors of a marriage. Men require constant stroking, ego feeding, and attention. If they don’t get these things at home 24/7, they’ll find it elsewhere and I’m not talking about just physical attention. I’m 100% convinced that any man is capable of cheating. Look at Jane Fonda and Christie Brinkley. Talk about getting blindsided. Did their looks, fame and money secure their relationships? Get wise, girls. Men will always justify a decision to have an affair (in their little pea brains). Shania is a survivor. She had to grow up quickly and take responsibility for her siblings at a very young age. Once the pain subsides from losing Mutt, she’ll be fine and life will once again be good.
June 6th, 2008 at 5:20 am
Unbelievable! He dumped her for thát !?! You can’t argue true love but Shania, now you can date someone within your ow league…Maybe looks aren’t important, but why shouldn’t someone as delicious as you have someone delicious too, like, say…ehm… George Clooney? I heard he’s just become single too! There’s too many men, too little time foggedabout mutt what’s his face? !?
June 30th, 2008 at 1:26 pm
All the people who are offending her right now are you crazy?!!!!!!!! she’s the greatest woman on earth and oh yes yes yes she has an amazing talent ok, you keep telling your self that he made her the star she is and we’ll see about that,he’s a jackass and no VH she didn’t join something like , I know shania since her beginings and she has always been awesome! I love her and I wish her the best!

Excellently put, Cody. That’s almost exactly what I was thinking.
July 31st, 2008 at 2:20 pm
Maybe Mutt just wanted someone who looks worse than he does. Looks aren’t everything and you can’t judge people by a pic alone, but this Marie Ann does look bitchy. And Mutt is married so in my book no matter what she looks like she’s a skank and so is he. Shania will recover, she’s talented and strong. She can do it all w/o the Mutt.
July 31st, 2008 at 2:23 pm
To VH,
It’s not all about “putting out” in or out of marriage, famous or not. I agree with Jen. What a ridiculous comment, VH.
July 31st, 2008 at 2:24 pm
Robert,
Mutt couldn’t have done it w/o Shania either as far as her success goes and he shared in that success. I’d like to see him have that kind of success with Marie Ann…hmmmm, she could be a Sarah Bernhart impersonator?
September 28th, 2008 at 12:05 pm
whoa!! mutt left shania for that??!! LMAO!! was he drunk?? oh my god!! i feel bad for shania, but mutt was DAMN stupid!! yuck!! also i agree, it wasn’t worth it for the sake of their young son.
November 17th, 2008 at 6:02 am
Mutt’s a right wing monster, she’s much much better off free of him – yeeuuucckkk
November 23rd, 2008 at 12:05 pm
I am elated. Shania is my dream girl, and now she is single!! There is a God!!
November 24th, 2008 at 5:50 am
Listen, idiots, what does the fact Shania is hot- looking got to do with ANYthing? All the old, haggard women out there should be cheering on the “new” lady in Mutts life. It gives THEM hope.
As for the breakup…one scenario, Mutt couldnt get sex whenever he wanted with Miss twain, so the nanny filled that void. Voila! He’s worth half a billion, so why not? Oh, the same sitch could very well apply to the breakup of Sarah McClocklin’s marraige bust too !!!
December 5th, 2008 at 7:43 pm
I dunno, Shania probably is all full of herself and feeling precious. Probably doesn’t let Mutt touch her.
The other chick has an ugly face but bigger boobs and will probably do ANYTHING for him – and 3 times a day.
That would clinch it for me.
December 6th, 2008 at 1:03 pm
Yuk!!!! I’d never seen pictures of Mutt Lange until today,could’ve gone the rest of my life without seeing that. That is one ugly mutt and after seeing the other chick-that mutt deserves a bitch like that…..let ugly folk be with ugly folk. This is sort of like Princess Diana and that gargoyle that she was married to. You can do better Shania.
December 13th, 2008 at 7:35 pm
Hot looks or not, Shania obviously wasnt doing it for Mutt. Why all the bashing of the not-so-pretty one ?? It DOES give hope to avg. lookers all over the world, similar to Camilla Parker-Bowles !!!
March 18th, 2009 at 10:57 am
Nothing wrong with this, at all, people should get it more.

June 20th, 2009 at 6:10 pm
That homly woman certainly gives me hope. On the other hand, her body is thin and mine is big. I have a head that looks so much smaller than my football sized shoulders and arms.
Back to the topic… I wonder if Shania will be able to put out any new songs now without Mutt in her life. He wrote her all of his hits.
June 20th, 2009 at 6:23 pm
Okay, wait a second here…I feel bad now because I don’t really think that the Marie Ann Thiebaud woman is homely at all. I feel the need to write poetry on this and will be putting it on my Rascaldaisy blog with all of my other poetry.
July 2nd, 2009 at 12:55 pm

August 29th, 2009 at 12:55 pm
Shania married Mutt Lange for his money and his musical connections.
Mutt Lange married Shania for her body and her youth.
Shania got money. Mutt Lange got to have sex with Shania.
Was there more to their marriage than that…I don’t know.
Don’t blame the break up on Marie Ann Thiebaud.
Mutt Lange should have kept his penis in his pants.
A woman can’t force a man to have sex with her.
Mutt Lange should be blamed for the break up.
Marie Ann Thiebaud may have been afraid to say “no” to Mutt Lange. After all, he was her boss.

December 16th, 2009 at 5:35 pm
See how ugly and painful infidelity and adultery is.
December 31st, 2009 at 11:49 am
Has been some time since the split happened. Nobody can know the personal dynamics between 2 people and sometimes things do change and people grow apart. I am not defending either party other to say that I love what Shania has given us in her professional life, and I admire the talent that Mutt has–they were a great team professionally–and made a go of it personally for a few years.
Mutt said he & Marie did not have an affair that split up the marriage, and that they are just friends like Shania and Fred (Marie’s ex) are. Who knows? Maybe it is really as simple as Shania and Mutt were more compatible with Fred and Marie (separately) than each other.
There’s just so many possibilities on both the personal and professional levels. I just want to thank Shania and Mutt for the years of music enjoyment they created for all of us. Mutt will be a tough if not impossible act to follow in the producer’s chair. The rest I don’t need to know.
Blessings to Shania, Mutt, and Eja. Happy New Year 2010!
January 21st, 2010 at 2:48 pm
i know peeps that you love them so much but this is no lie i know eja he goes to ism international of mont de corsie in switzerland i met her and it was an honor
January 23rd, 2010 at 6:02 pm
So the rumor I heard was that Mutt was, shall we say, unsatisfied with the variety. If that’s true, turn your testicles in, dumbass.
If you ever get to be within 10 feet of the bedroom door of a woman like Shania, you thank God every minute of every day for the amazing blessing he has bestowed on you. You don’t go for the downgrade, slutty or not.
Dumb Mutt!
