Heidi Montag Pratt Files For Legal Separation

Heidi Montag
There has been much speculation over the highly publicized break up between Heidi and Spencer Pratt as to wether the couple is just doing it for the publicity. It took to a new height today as Heidi has decided to file for legal separation from Spencer. She first went to a courthouse in Malibu only to discover that Malibu doesn’t do divorce filings. Heidi then went on to a courthouse in Santa Monica where she filed without the help of an attorney which is a bit suspicious. On the paperwork she listed “irreconcilable differences” and under the section, “community assets and debts,” Heidi wrote, “No such assets or debts.” This could mean that Heidi and Spencer had a prenuptial agreement or that they are broke.
