Talk about a messy breakup. Secret recordings, abuse allegations and extortion investigations are just a few of the headlines over the past year coming out of the Mel Gibson and Oksana Grigorieva split. But all that drama might be behind them once and for all. The former couple, who have a daughter together, finally settled their ongoing custody case.
