Pete Wentz and his son Bronx Mowgli were having some man time playing in a Beverly Hills park yesterday.  How cute are they?!  I love seeing men with their kids/babies alone in public.  It’s actually hot.  Men that have the balls to be a daddy for real are keepers.  Maybe that’s why things see to be healing up for Pete and his wifey Ashlee Simpson.  I was convinced that the divorce was going to happen.  But between the hand holding in public and now Pete being a father figure, for real… maybe that divorce is for sure….OFF.

Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz Calling Off Divorce?

Or I suppose this could be the opposite.  Pete could be having his “turn” with Bronx and Ashlee is back to being pissed.  I am going to go with the happily ever after until I see or hear otherwise.

It’s looks like the Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz divorce is all but called off at this point.  They have been spotted together more and more lately.  But yesterday they were seen out in Los Angeles getting coffee together and they were holding hands.

Ashlee Simpson Goes Below The Belt

That my friends is a very good sign that things are working out for these two.  I love it.  I really hope that they do.  You know that Bronx will love mommy and daddy together.  I didn’t feel like they tried long enough to make their marriage work.  So now, it looks like they are giving it a second chance.  I am definitely pulling for them!

Ashlee Simpson is moving on from her soon to be ex-husband Pete Wentz and she’s doing it really, really fast.  She only filed for divorce about a month ago, but that isn’t slowing her down.

I feel like she’s on a vendetta to pay back Pete for being a non-stop party animal during their marriage and for acting like a playboy rather than a married man and father.

Ashlee Simpson Files For Divorce From Pete Wentz

Ash was just seen with a new man, Craig Owens and they put on a nice PDA session  for all the world to see.  They went shopping at the Beverly Center in Los Angeles and didn’t hold back in the least.

“They were holding hands in the elevator,” an insider tells In Touch in an exclusive interview, “and a lot of the time he had his arm around her. They even kissed each other on the lips. It was obvious that they were a couple.”

Here’s the kicker in the whole scenario.  Craig is an old friend of Pete’s.  Yeah, not too classy there girly.   Craig is in the band, D.R.U.G.S. and they just released their first album with Decaydance.  Yeah, that just happens to be Pete’s record label.  Ouch!

Pete has been working on getting her back too.

“He sends flowers to her every day, and that’s only the beginning,” the friend reports. “He has even offered to quit his band and let her pursue her career, but so far, she hasn’t budged.”

Well, after this, I don’t think Pete will want anything to do with her.  She kind of crossed a sacred line.  What do you think?

Ashlee Simpson, 26,  has filed for divorce from husband of 2-1/2 years Pete Wentz her rep confirms:

“After careful consideration, we have made the difficult decision to file for divorce,” the couple said through a spokesperson. “We remain friends and deeply committed and loving parents to our son Bronx, whose happiness and well-being remains our No. 1 priority. We ask that everyone honor our privacy as we navigate this next phase of our lives.”

The reason is cited as irreconcilable differences and the couple did not have a prenup! Ashlee has Laura Wassar as her lawyer and is seeking primary custody of their two year old son Bronx and also spousal and child support. Pete is repped by Stacy Phillips. There is no word on how long they have been split up for.

Although there is talk Pete’s erratic behaviour was the reason behind it, there is also talk they just grew apart.

Are you surprised by this split?

Christina Aguilera is out at the Petco store with son Max and husband Jordan Bratman.  I think Max looks a lot like his dad.  What do you think?  And his boots?? How cute are those?

Grey’s Anatomy’s Ellen Pompeo is seen getting movie tickets for Avatar.  Have you seen any movies over the holidays?

Jennifer Garner hits the park with her girls and is pictured with Seraphina.

Renee Zellweger heads to the gym and is still smiling.  I’m thinking that since she spent the holidays with Bradley Cooper’s parents and she’s still smiling, it all went really well, which means it’s probably heading in a ‘serious’ direction.
