Wentz sues for joint custody of his son with Simpson
By CMU Editorial | Published on Wednesday 9 March 2011
Fall Out Boy’s Pete Wentz has gone legal in his custody battle with former pop star wife Ashlee Simpson, formally objecting to her application that she have primary custody of their son Bronx.
Simpson filed divorce proceedings against Wentz last month citing “irreconcilable differences”. It was predicted at the time that it would be custody of the couple’s two year old child that would cause the most tension, and that seems to be the case.
According to TMZ, Wentz has now filed his own set of legal papers demanding joint custody of Bronx. His court submission also requests that both sides should have to cover their own legal costs in any custody battle.
