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.

93. I tend to agree that no one really knows either of them and shouldn't jump to conclusions based on hearsay. You can't possibly know all the dynamics that played in to the ending of their marriage but suffice to say both had to be at fault. Being famous and rich can certainly complicate things sometimes but it's all about how you began. It's all about how much time you spent getting to know each other intially and so many of Hollywoods' stars seem to be in such an all-fired hurry to get married anymore. Whatever happened to just taking your time to get to know someone. My wife and I spent three years in a great relationship, being engaged and getting to know each other. When we were sure it was right we sealed the deal. While a father or father-in-law can have some type of influence on a marriage lets not forget that these are supposed to be two adults that love and support each other in an ideal situation. So that means that both of them (ideally) could have stood up to her father and told him to either support them or never see them again and left the last move up to him.
So many variables could have played into this, even public scrutiny could have been just one of the mitigating factors that ended this lets-get-married-last-minute decision. All I can say is TAKE YOUR TIME FOR GODS SAKE! WHAT'S THE FRIGGIN RUSH? All you can do is prevent bad memories or make good ones. And that's all I've got to say about that.... :-D

96. I was married for 25 years and my ex walked away. He never tried to make it work because he thought the grass was greener but he found out it is not. We do not know what went on in Jessica and Nick's personal life and they never should have done a show about their married life. That is what ruined their marriage. Jessica needs to tell her father to stay out of her business and she can thank him for the divorce. I too think Jessica is a fake and loves the attention but Nick on the other hand seems like a nice guy who got the crappy end of the stick.I hope Nick stays as nice as he is now and finds someone that can give the same love he has in his heart back to him.

100. Please to the VERY FEW Nick haters....HE made her a STAR! Before there wedding when she was a NOBODY and he was big with his band, her dad Joe wanted them to do a pre-nup. Jessica did not want this and Nick didn't care either way because he LOVED her. Now that he made her a superstar and she is raking in millions he shouldn't get half the money???? Are you crazy??? Nick get all your entitled to...you deserve it!!!! She has no talent..her songs suck! and her acting is horrible! I think her lil sis has a hell of alot more talent than she does!

102. jessicas dad has said many things about jessicas big chest that most normal dads would never talk about or say about their own daughters chest. he's even is a baptist minister. that is really sick.
