Celebrity Divorce

Paul Nassif wasn't lying when he claimed his 6-year-old son sustained hand injuries by falling off a carnival ride ... this according to carnival workers who filed an injury report that completely backs Paul's story.

The question ... was Adrienne Maloof lying when she told Children Services Paul abused the kid?

TMZ obtained the report, filed by two carnival workers moments after Christian injured himself on November 11.

According to the report, the carnival workers ... Christian "jumped off steps of ride exiting, fell on his hands." And that's how he was injured.

The report adds, "[Christian] wiped his hands off and didn't seem very concerned."

According to the report, the injuries to Christian's hands were nothing but a "slight scrape."

The account flies in the face of the story Adrienne told to the L.A. Dept. of Children and Family Services -- that the child was injured when Paul kicked him.

Adrienne was concerned Christian suffered broken fingers -- but the report says he was so unfazed, "he continued to ride other rides."

DCFS is currently investigating.

The 6-year-old son of Dr. Paul Nassif and Adrienne Maloof was taken to the ER this morning for injuries to his hand ... but there are conflicting stories as to how the child was hurt ... and now L.A. Child Services is involved.

TMZ has learned ... Adrienne took 6-year-old Christian to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in L.A. early Monday morning ... and told doctors she was concerned he had several broken fingers.

Sources tell us ... Adrienne told the doctors the injury occurred while Paul was watching the boy ... when they were playfully kicking each other and Paul pushed the kid to the ground, causing the injury.

We know ... Paul spoke with social workers after Adrienne made the allegations ... and told the officials he NEVER kicked his child.

Sources say Paul told the social workers the injury occurred at a school carnival -- when Christian fell off of a funhouse step ... and hurt his hand. Paul told officials the nanny was watching the child at the time, while he was buying tickets.

There's no bad blood between Reese Witherspoon's first husband and Reese Witherspoon's second husband.

While attending their nine-year-old son Deacon's soccer game in L.A. this weekend, Ryan Phillippe showed good sportsmanship and shook hands with his ex-wife Reese's current husband Jim Toth.

Reese and Jim recently welcomed a new son, while Ryan had a daughter with one of his former girlfriends last year.

Usher is finally making good on his threats to evict ex-wife Tameka Raymond from the house she still calls home ... officially listing his Georgia mansion for a cool $3.2 million.

Usher bought the 12,544 square-foot pad in 2007 -- while still married to Tameka -- for $3 million. He officially listed the digs last week.

TMZ broke the story ... Usher's ex has continued to live in the house as part of their 2009 divorce agreement -- but in September, Usher made it clear he was planning to sell ... and Tameka would be kicked to the curb.

As for the house, it's pretty huge ... 6 bedrooms, 7 baths, 10-foot ceilings, massive pool, in-home gym, 4 fireplaces, a library, and a NASA launch pad. Kidding ... NASA doesn't have funding for this place.

This isn't a soap opera storyline ... "The Bold and the Beautiful" star Katherine Kelly Lang has filed for divorce from her hubby ... TMZ has learned.

According to the divorce papers filed earlier this month, Lang cites irreconcilable differences for the split with hubby Alex D'Andrea. She is asking the judge to block his right to be awarded spousal support.

Lang and D'Andrea had been married since 1997. The couple has a 15-year-old daughter together.

"American Idol" finalist Elise Testone is a no-good man-thief who broke up the 6-year marriage of an 'Idol' guitarist -- at least according to the dude's wife, but Elise tells TMZ she never did the deed.

Here's the deal ... Elise met Errol Cooney during Season 11 of 'Idol' -- when she made it to the top 6, and he played guitar for the band. Both Elise and Errol were on Idol's summer tour.

Just last week Errol's wife Erin Cooney filed for divorce in LA County Superior Court ... citing "irreconcilable differences" -- but a rep for Erin tells TMZ the real reason for the breakup is an alleged affair between Errol and Elise.

The rep claims ... back in September, Erin stumbled upon what she believed to be incriminating emails between Elise and Errol, and immediately confronted him.

The rep says Errol confessed to everything.

In addition, TMZ obtained an email Elise sent to Erin last week ... in which Elise says, "Errol was the only person who I felt really loved me in my entire life."

Elise also apologizes to Erin for "any pain you feel I may have caused you, but this is not my fault."

When we contacted Elise ... she denied having the affair, saying ... "We developed a friendship on Tour and he developed feelings for me."

Elise adds, "Their divorce has nothing to do with me and has been a long time coming." Attempts to reach Errol were unsuccessful.

Sources tell us the agreement was reached after both families stepped in to help mediate ... with Paul's brother, Chris Nassif, and Adrienne's brother, Joe Maloof leading the charge.

Of course, money COULD have been a major issue ... since they're both incredibly wealthy. But sources close to the former couple tell us the two hammered out a deal that will allow them to each keep the assets they brought into the union ... and split everything else they acquired during the marriage right down the middle.

As for custody of the couple's 3 sons ... we're told Adrienne and Paul agreed to a deal that is "very close to 50/50 custody."

It's over as fast as it started ... Adrienne Maloof and Paul Nassif have settled their divorce ... TMZ has learned.

As you know ... the 2 were locked in a battle royale ... restraining orders, vicious accusations and a lot of bad blood.

But in a joint statement obtained by TMZ, Paul and Adrienne say, "We're happy to announce we have reached agreement on a settlement," adding they are both pleased.

They go on, "There has been so much untrue negative innuendo and destructive rumors beyond our control ..."

In the statement, which we got from their rep, Jim Yeager, Adrienne and Paul say, "We want the best for each other and we're confident we can help each other make a continuing positive impact with our children."

They go on, "Our goal is for our children to have stable and nurturing relationships with both of us so we can all find as much happiness as possible."

They end with this ... "We appreciate the good wishes we continue to receive from our supporters around the world."

It's still too early to call ... but it looks like Roseanne will NOT be the next President of the United States ... and her ex-husband Tom Arnold is partly to blame.

Of course, Roseanne claims to be a serious candidate to be the next leader of the free world ... running as the nominee of the Peace and Freedom Party.

In case you haven't followed her campaign, here's a summary -- she hates both Democrats and Republicans and REAAALLLLLY wants to legalize marijuana. That's pretty much it.

But her ex-hubby Tom Arnold tells TMZ ... she just hasn't earned his vote -- saying, "I'm voting for Obama, but for God's sake let Roseanne have her pot ... she's 60."

REMINDER -- Don't forget to vote today ... or Sophia Bush will be ashamed of you.

6:30 AM PT -- Roseanne isn't getting much help from her old castmates either.

Rumors be damned ... a frustrated Joe Simpson is telling friends and colleagues the stories that he's switched teams are absurd.

There have been several reports out recently that Joe has told his family he's gay and that's why his marriage fell apart. There are also reports about several guys he's rumored to be dating/hooking up with.

The people we spoke with are split -- some believe him, and some think he's just not ready to come out publicly.

So we gotta ask ...

Mexican pop star Paulina Rubio is sick and tired of supporting her estranged husband -- and has now filed docs asking a judge to ORDER him to get off his lazy ass and find a job ... TMZ has learned.

Paulina's husband Nicolas Vallejo-Nagera filed for divorce earlier this year and requested alimony -- but Rubio now says that's BS, claiming Nick is "perfectly capable of self-support" and should be forced to find a job to pay his own damn bills.

Paulina -- who was just sued this week for allegedly beating her assistant -- insists there's no excuse for Nicolas' laziness, claiming he is "a young, bi-lingual, highly intelligent and educated man, with degrees in business, and is physically active and healthy."

She adds, "He has had his own businesses in the past; however, he has not sought gainful employment since he began living with his wife."

Paulina wants a judge to order Nicolas to find a job, as well as pay Paulina's attorneys' fees. BTW, the divorce is still in play and the judge has not ordered Paulina to pay any support -- yet -- but she wants to nip this one in the bud.

It's been 3 years since Tiger Woods' ex-wife Elin Nordegren smashed his SUV with a golf club -- over a massive cheating scandal that derailed his life -- and now, Tiger's finally starting to rebuild ... starting with the Florida mansion where it all went downhill.

Construction is already underway at Tiger's Windermere home -- the same home where Tiger famously crashed his SUV following a blowout argument with Elin over his endless philandering ... and Elin attacked the car with a freakin' golf club.

Neighborhood sources tell TMZ, Tiger's uprooting the pool and replacing it with a brand new outdoor swimming facility. We're told he's also adding a new deck in the backyard, as well as a new spa.

Tiger has already obtained the requisite legal docs to commence building.

It's unclear if Tiger's renovating the home for his own personal enjoyment, or whether he plans to sell the place.

Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore have taken NO steps to end their marriage ... TMZ has learned.

Sources connected with the couple tell us ... neither Ashton nor Demi have given their lawyers any indication they want to file for divorce.

We're also told -- contrary to several reports -- Demi and Ashton are not haggling over money and who gets what. There have been NO discussions about dividing assets.

It's unclear why neither of them has gotten off the dime to end their marriage -- but they haven't.

Ashton and Demi separated in November, 2011. They were together as a married couple for 6 years.

Trying not to make eye contact, former couple Katy Perry and Russell Brand sat on opposite sides of the court at the Lakers game at Staples Center in L.A. on Tuesday.

Both Katy and Russell -- who divorced earlier this year -- employed one of the hardest acting techniques known to man ... pretending it's not awkward when you run into your ex.

At least they can agree on which team to root for.

Avril Lavigne's ex-husband ... JUST GOT OWNED BY THE GUY FROM NICKELBACK!!!

Here's what happened -- Deryck Whibley and his hot GF Ari Cooper went to a Halloween party this weekend dressed up as Avril and her new fiance Chad Kroeger.

Deryck was Avril ... Ari was Chad ... it's sorta funny, but kinda weird ... and a photo of the cross-dressing couple made it to Twitter (see above).

Now for the good part -- Chad Kroeger saw the pic and responded on his Twitter page with the following message:

Former NFL star Chad Johnson may once again be able to communicate with his ex-wife Evelyn Lozada -- after allegedly head-butting her -- because Evelyn plans to let the no-contact order against him expire.

Sources close to the ex-couple tell TMZ, Chad's on track to finish his batterer's intervention program in the next couple months -- at which point Chad will ask the judge to terminate his probation and lift the no-contact order.

If that happens, Evelyn would have to get a civil restraining order to keep Chad away -- but we're told she has decided NOT to do that ... because she just wants to "move on."

Chad was sentenced to one year probation and the batterer's class after pleading "no contest" to domestic battery following the August 11 fight with Evelyn -- but since he's completing the class early ... the judge can also lift the probation early.
