Avril Lavigne has filed for divorce from estranged husband Deryck Whibley.
The pair announced an end to their three year marriage last month, but are now making it official - Lavigne filed for divorce at a Los Angeles court on Friday (October 9), citing "irreconcilable differences".
Papers say the couple have not been together since September 4, and Avril won't be seeking spousal support - but she also doesn't want to give Whibley any money.
At the time of their separation, Avril wrote on her blog that the split was amicable, saying: "Deryck and I have been together for six-and-a-half years. I am grateful for our time together, and I am grateful and blessed for our remaining friendship."
"I admire Deryck and have a great amount of respect for him. He is the most amazing person I know, and I love him with all my heart. Deryck and I are separating and moving forward on a positive note."
