Britney Spears Files for Divorce
TMZ.com ^ | 11/7/06

Posted on 11/07/2006 1:01:32 PM PST by truthandlife

Spears filed legal papers today in Los Angeles County Superior Court, citing "irreconcilable differences." In her petition, Spears asks for both legal and physical custody of the couple's two children, one-year old Sean Preston and two-month old Jayden James, with Federline getting reasonable visitation rights.

As for money, sources tell TMZ the couple, who married in Sept. 2004, has an iron-clad prenup. Not surprisingly, Spears is waiving her right to spousal support. She's also asking the judge to make each party pay their own attorney's fees.

Spears gives the date of separation as yesterday, the same day she flaunted her incredible revamped physique during a surprise appearance on David Letterman's show. Sources tell TMZ there was no single reason for Britney pulling the plug, rather, it was "a string of events."

Spears has hired powerhouse celebrity divorce lawyer Laura Wasser, who has repped a number of celebs, including Angelina Jolie, Nick Lachey and Kiefer Sutherland. We're told Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe asked Wasser to rep both of them in their split, but Wasser declined for personal reasons.

She can afford to be a loser, KFed? Not so much.

Ever look at all the white trash multi-millionaires which came out of the late 90's teen pop scene. It's scary.

She looks the same. Must be a guy thing. I don't see much of a difference.

I guess Britney decided that three kids were too much after she had her last baby.

This was the worst haircut I've ever seen...totally chopped up. I commented to hubby that it looked like something you do to yourself after you break up with your boyfriend! Little did I know!

Surprised??? Not. I am surprised that it lasted this long. Her second marriage over....she is a waste. No wonder gays think they can have marriages. (sarc) straight people like Britney sure don't show the best of marriage.

I know it's hard to believe these two would divorce. What an upstanding couple they are. /sarcasm

What did Britney expect anyway? Britney took him from another chick (who had one or two kids by him). Payback is a *itch.

If you are going to post my house on FR, at least post a more updated photo. It is misleading to do otherwise. Since this photo was taken, we've added several improvements, most notably a satellite dish on top.

"Conflict of interest no doubt. Wasser and half of the California bar association were sleeping with Ms. Witherspoon at the time. . . ."

Attorney Laura Wasser (according to the article) was sleeping with Ms. Witherspoons? Really? I had never heard this interesting tidbit about Reese Witherspoon.
