Jessica and Nick -- Divorce Final

Jessica Simpson, Nick LacheyTMZ has obtained court documents that seal the deal on Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey's divorce.

The papers, filed Friday in Los Angeles Superior Court, officially end their three-and-a-half year marriage.

As TMZ first reported, Jessica and Nick agreed to end the marriage immediately, but deal with their financial dispute at a later date.

Sources tell us that Jessica has offered Nick $1.5 million to walk away from the marriage, even though under California law Nick would be entitled to half the fortune the couple amassed during their marriage.

33. Leave the poor folks alone. For whatever reason the break-up was about, it's done, it's over...... and let's now, concentrate on more important things.

34. All I can say is that marrage is hard enough on its own, let alone being in the public eye. I feel sorry for both of them... Nick I do feel got the raw end, Jess was too quick to go for the divorce, Her father I think controls her alot. Jess needs to grow up and realize what she has lost. I don't hate Jess, I just think she is going to be a very sorry woman. You can tell Nick loves her by the song he sang for her.she just does not know what she has lost.. but it is too late for her now. I hope he finds someone who will be a partner to him in every way. be more important than the purses and make up, the cloths and shoes of the day are.. And it will be about him and what he feels is important. He seems like a man who would treat his partner with such love and always put her first.
Good Luck Nick, I wish you all the love and happiness that you deserve in your life.. Let your heart heal and move on... Also good luck in your music career and in what ever you choose to do....

35. I truly believe one day Jessica is going to turn against her father and realize that he convinced her to leave Nick, the best thing that ever happened to her. For someone who started out so sweet and innocent, she's turning more trashy every time you see her. Seems daddy doesn't have either her or Ashley's best interest at heart. Can you imagine the self-esteem problems these two girls truly have? Thanks daddy...you've done a hell of a job....NOT!

36. I love both Nick and Jessica. However, that relationship had to be emotionally draining on Nick and I think the success of their show was pulling him away from who he really was. It took them in a new direction, unfortunately, it wasn't the same direction. I pray for their futures, whatever it holds! And hope they listen to their one true voice - theirs!

37. They just got divorced - they didn't settle anything. They "Bifurcated" ttheir divorce. That means they agree to get divorced even though they haven't settled everything. They are still going to be litigating property, alimony, etc.

38. I just watch the VHI-Behind the Music videos 1-8 on www.yourtube.com of Nick. It was great! They interview his mom, dad, brother & other associates and you can tell this is what Nick is about as a person. He is down to earth.He was taught well by his parents as far as what life is about and how to treat people. Jessica on the other hand has a lot of growing up to do. It's a shame she lost Nick in the process however he now is free to find that special woman to have a child with and be a great husband and father. I am so impressed with his honesty about his feelings. At some point, Jessica will break away from her father and maybe she will realize she made a huge mistake. Too little too late.

40. Life is sad when two people seem so in love and the family won't stay out of it and leave them alone to work out the problems they may have together. Lets not bash either of them for mistakes they both have made. We all make mistakes and none of us are perfect. Niether were Jessie or Nick and both deserve to love, be loved and find happiness. I am sure both Nick and Jessie were each hurt in thier own way. They both need to go on and live life, enjoy what good memories they do have about the relationship and try to remain to have friendship and respect for one another. You may want to bash and destroy each of them but what goes around comes around. Maybe you bashers have never known what it is to love or be loved by anyone. You need as much prayer as Jessie and Nick do! God didn't creat this world to be a place of hurt and pain and it is people like you who thrive on it to survive. I feel sorry for you! You need to get your own life and stop judging others whom you truly know nothing about!

41. I think Jessica is being a cheap BITCH!
She must be one selfish person to give him an offer like that!
Let me guess her father had something to do with it?
I USED to like her but now..........NO WAY!

43. That is it!! Nick and Jessica are cut off, why would they do that. We all envied their marriage. But whos to say if I had cameras following me the whole time I got to know my husband I may have to leave him to. Good luck to both of them they will find happiness maybe not collectively but they can always say that they have been loved. What a beautiful thing.
