Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey fans hopes that the couple may reconcile are fading fast. A report now sets the date for when the divorce is finalized as June 17 by Life & Style Weekly.
Though both parties have reportedly had second thoughts, Nick seems to really have moved forward and is having no trouble with the Hollywood dating scene.
Jessica was linked to a number of men early in the split including Adam Levine, Dane Cook and Jude Law but none of those were ever confirmed and at best they were short lived.
“Jessica’s learning that most men aren’t as commitment as Nick was,” an insider tells Star Magazine.
“She’s seen that there aren’t many eligible men who are serious boyfriend material. Most men she meets look at her as an easy score or a ditzy blonde,” the source continues.
Ouch!
The report notes that Nick wanted a trial separation or counseling, but ultimately it was Jessica’s decision file for divorce.
They separated in November and released this statement:
“After three years of marriage, and careful thought and consideration, we have decided to part ways,” the statement says. “This is the mutual decision of two people with an enormous amount of respect and admiration for each other. We hope that you respect our privacy during this difficult time.”
They married in a lavish ceremony on Oct. 26, 2002, in Austin, Texas.
Their divorce may be an anti-climactic event on June 17, 2006.
