What is it about these two that makes everybody (myself included) go nuts? For months before
their official announcement that they are getting a
divorce, the tabloids were constantly declaring their marriage to be over. And now, a month later, it's still front
page fodder. Maybe it's the fact that Nick and Jessica's publicists seem to be holding divorce proceedings in the court
of public opinion. A recent poll by People magazine has Jess's approval rating (she has an approval rating?) way down.
71% of People readers think the break-up is Jessica's fault and 76% of Star readers agree. In response to that news,
Jessica's publicist has reportedly been calling newspapers and spreading nasty rumors about Nick's cheating and his
hiring of a new manager to help him get some of Jessica's assets.Here's a quick rundown of all the other Nick and Jessica stories out there since the big announcement:
- Jessica officially filed for divorce on Friday (MTV, 12/16)
- No, Jen Aniston is not Jess's secret phone therapist (Entertainmentwise, 12/19)
- No prenup=Nick gets half (NBC10, 11/30)
- Everyone's going to be OK! (People, 12/19)

I guess that song he sang wasn't meant to be "forever" as he said in the opening line of "The Newlyweds."
I think the major reason for their divorce is that they were too young. She was only 23 when they got married and he was 30.
Clearly, not only did their age differences make a difference, but her young age did, too.
Jessica Simpson, now 24, is mature for her age, however, apparently they got married much, much too quickly.
Hopefully, their divorce won't get any uglier than it already has, but you know the media, they sensationalize everything!
