Nick seeks spousal support and jewelry from Jessica
In divorce papers, Nick Lachey is seeking spousal support from Jessica Simpson, and he wants his jewelry back.
In court papers filed Friday in response to Simpson's Dec. 16 divorce filing, Lachey cited irreconcilable differences for the dissolution of the three-year marriage.
Lachey, 32, also asked for "miscellaneous jewelry and other personal effects," part of Simpson's earnings from after the date of separation and other assets.
Lachey said he and Simpson separated Dec. 13, although she claims it was Nov. 23.
The couple, who starred in their own MTV reality show, "Newlyweds: Nick & Jessica," had no prenuptial agreement and in her petition, Simpson asked the court not to grant Lachey spousal support.
Lachey, who gained fame as a member of the boy band 98 Degrees, had more earning power when the couple wed in October 2002. However, Simpson's fame skyrocketed during the marriage. The 25-year-old singer-actress reportedly earned more than $30 million last year, including earnings from her big-screen debut playing Daisy Duke in "The Dukes of Hazzard" movie.
Last month, the Mediterranean-style house the pair shared during "Newlyweds" was sold to "Malcolm in the Middle" teen actor Justin Berfield for an undisclosed price
No Pre-nup? That speaks about the possible intentions they had for their marrige...
WHAT?! Jessica got $30 mil from DOH? She only had less than 15 minutes in the film?! That was the worst movie of 05'!
Well then again...I bet they calculated in the song she covered in the movie. And we can't forget about the Pink Swimsuit.
If he wasn't working and hadn't been part of her fame before the break up I could understand the spousal support. But as it is, he is working, is more famous then he was when they got together and got paid for their work together and his own before they broke up and will still get royalties from Newlyweds repeats etc, so I don't see how he can profit from her earnings after they broke up. As for his jewellery, well it's his, so of course he should have it and any belongings that are definitely his, shared items will have to be discussed and gifts can sometimes be rocky ground but that's another issue.
It's sad to see relationships end like this, with partners acting in ways they wouldn't have dreamed of doing before, of course it depends on the circumstances but it's like they never even used to love each other.

LMAO she only made $500,000 from 'Dukes' She made 30 million in total last year.
omg, Mikal!!! = ( I think Nick should stop being "milking" Jessica for money and put more attention into his career to show wut he can really do. Leave her alone already!!! Team Simpson!!!
JESSICA WOULD NOT HAVE A "CAREER" WITHOUT NEWLYWEDS and in all honesty, if he got less than she did, he should get some of it.
Besides, Cali is community property state, which means each side gets half. So she's loosing bank because she was (as we all know) a ----ing moron who listened to her just ----ing moronic father.
