It’s The Beginning of The Great Simpson-Wentz Custody Battle!

So Ashlee and Pete filed for divorce, we all know that.  We also all know that the couple has an adorable little child.  But where is the child going to end up?

Ashlee wants joint legal custody, but sole physical custody, which pretty much just means “Mommy will drop you off at Daddy’s house for the weekend sometimes.”  Not surprisingly, Pete is not into that at all. In case you couldn’t tell, Pete just adores his son, so he’s fighting for joint physical custody as well.

The weirdest thing about all this, to me, at least, is that Ashlee requested that Pete pay all the legal fees, but Pete suggested that they split it.  Is any one else put off by that?  Bitch should have her own money, if she couldn’t stick around with Pete, she shouldn’t get to touch the “Sugar, We’re Goin’ Down” funds, right?

  • What happened to “we intend to stay friends and do our best for our child.”? Probably the same thing that happened to “we’ll love each other forever.” On a different note: Hey, b-dog….go fall in a tarpit with the rest of the dinosaurs.

  • @blasted1: Try living in the real world. Women need to realize if they want equality, they MUST take care of their own needs, especially in a divorce. This having the husband pick up all the costs in a divorce is crap. Asslee can get a job just as easily as Pete and pay her own legal costs.

  • @blasted: Men get royally screwed in divorce. They lose the kids and the house and on top of that they have to pay child support and alimony and in this case, Ashlee wants him to pay for all costs, too.
