If You Love Something, Get Rid of It: Nick and Jessica to Divorce
READ MORE: US Weekly, break-ups, nick and jessica
The image at right (click to enlarge) probably won’t be on the newsstands until 10 A.M. or so, but we don’t see why you should wait for the news: Nick Lachey and Jessica Simpson, America’s Newlyweds, have called it quits. For those of you so self-loathing as to closely follow these things, you’ll recall that in May, E! online reported that the couple had filed for divorce, only to mysteriously retract the story an hour later. But you knew, right then, that this was coming, didn’t you?

The couple is waiting to make an official announcement later in the month (at the appropriate career opportunity, we’re sure), but according to Us Weekly’s scoop — kept so under wraps that employees were not allowed to receive their advance issues yesterday, presumably for fear that People might rape and pillage the story — the marriage has been dead for some time. Well, duh.

The article has a laundry list of contributions to the break-up (mostly blamed on Jessica), including creepy-dad Joe Simpson, Jessica’s “diva” behavior, and her fondness for whiskey on the rocks. One of those ubiquitous sources close to the couple says, “Jessica’s the problem. She’s not the girl America fell in love with anymore.” Oh, young America, were you ever really in love with her? Or were you just lusting? C’mon, be honest.

And now, a moment of silence, please, so that we might hear the sound of every magazine editor in town simultaneously shitting themselves.

Report: Nick and Jessica Call It Quits

NEW YORK — The Barbie-and-Ken couple who invited America to watch them struggle through their first year of marriage on national television are apparently a couple no more, according to a celebrity magazine.

After months of rumors that their relationship was on the rocks, Jessica Simpson and Nick Lagay are breaking up, Us Weekly reports in its current issue, with the headline "Split!"

News of the forthcoming story prompted reps for Simpson, 25, and Lagay, 31, to do what they've come to do best these days: deny it.

"Nick and Jessica have not separated," said a joint statement on behalf of the couple released Wednesday. "Rumors to the contrary are simply not true."

"They have not separated," Simpson rep Brad Cafarelli said in an e-mail to The Associated Press.

Alex Dudley, a spokesman for Us Weekly, said the magazine was standing by its story.

The pair catapulted from nominally well-known singers to superstars with the MTV reality show "Newlyweds: Nick & Jessica", which followed them through the trials and tribulations of their new life together as husband and wife.

The program made Simpson, who’d previously had a Top 40 hit with "Irresistible", everybody’s favorite ditzy blonde du jour — especially after she mistook “Chicken of the Sea” tuna for actual chicken in one episode.

Lachey, a former member of boy band 98 Degrees, came to be known as the more down-to-earth, mature half of the couple.

Us Weekly blames most of the pair’s marital problems on Simpson, saying her prima donna behavior, wild lifestyle and manager-dad were major factors in the split. The story says the separation happened over the weekend.

The magazine cover promises "details on Jessica & Nick's last days — and how her ego, partying and dad drove them apart."

The couple, who married in October 2002, don’t plan to announce their separation until later this month, according to Us Weekly.

The celebrity tabloids have been predicting the Nick-and-Jessica downfall for much of the past year, obsessing and speculating endlessly about their happiness — or lack thereof. Various magazines have run photos recently of both Simpson and Lachey without their wedding rings.

E! Online even printed and then quickly retracted a story about their impending divorce in May.

The couple have repeatedly insisted that they love each other and things are going swimmingly in their marriage. Lachey described the home front situation as "absolutely wonderful" in August, dismissing buzz about a breakup.

Simpson recently starred as Daisy Duke in "The Dukes of Hazzard", which hit theaters this summer. Lachey had a recurring role on the TV show "Charmed" and a small part in the movie "Bewitched", which came out earlier this year. He just finished filming “The Hard Easy.”

In divorce papers, Nick Lachey is seeking spousal support from Jessica Simpson, and he wants his jewelry back.

In court papers filed Friday in response to Simpson's Dec. 16 divorce filing, Lachey cited irreconcilable differences for the dissolution of the three-year marriage.

Lachey, 32, also asked for "miscellaneous jewelry and other personal effects," part of Simpson's earnings from after the date of separation and other assets.

Lachey said he and Simpson separated Dec. 13, although she claims it was Nov. 23.

The couple, who starred in their own MTV reality show, "Newlyweds: Nick & Jessica," had no prenuptial agreement and in her petition, Simpson asked the court not to grant Lachey spousal support.

Lachey, who gained fame as a member of the boy band 98 Degrees, had more earning power when the couple wed in October 2002. However, Simpson's fame skyrocketed during the marriage. The 25-year-old singer-actress reportedly earned more than $30 million last year, including earnings from her big-screen debut playing Daisy Duke in "The Dukes of Hazzard" movie.
