Representatives for Jessica Simpson, 25, and Nick Lachey, 32, exclusively confirm to Us that the pair legally divorced Friday June 30. The former Newlyweds signed documents on Thursday requesting retired Superior Court Judge Dana Senit Henry bifurcate the marriage, meaning that the divorce could become official while the financial details were still being negotiated. The pair were married for three years before announcing their separation in November 2005. Both Simpson and Lachey have been keeping busy professionally. Lachey is currently promoting his new album “What’s Left of Me,” while Simpson just recorded the video for her new single “A Public Affair.”

TMZ has obtained court documents that seal the deal on Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey’s divorce.
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.
