Sad news, folks,Travis Barker and Shanna Moakler are divorced.
Oh come on, you know who Travis Barker and Shanna Moakler are – he used to be in Blink 182 and she, um, she's Shanna Moakler. Anyway, even though Travis Barker and Shanna Moakler split up 18 months ago, they've only just got divorced. Still don't really know who either of them are? No, us neither really. Let's just pretend that we do, anyway. Ready?
Nope, still don't care about them.
We don't know about you, but we're only able to express our love for another human being if that love forms the basis of a badly-edited MTV reality show full of zany sound effects, and even then we'll only express it with a desperate approval-seeking look on our faces.
It's not just us this condition affects – Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey had it, and so did Travis Barker and Shanna Moakler. In fact, thanks to MTV's Meet The Barkers we'd go as far as to say that Travis Barker and Shanna Moakler were the Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey that even less people have heard of. But it couldn't last forever.
In August 2006 Travis Barker and Shanna Moakler split up to almost deafening apathy for the wider world. But if you thought that nobody cared about those two awful needy bastards back them, imagine how little anyone cares 18 months later now that they've finally got their acts together to properly divorce. E! Online reports:
Travis Barker and Shanna Moakler are officially single again. The ex-couple, whose wedded life was once chronicled in the MTV series Meet the Barkers, were divorced earlier this month, according to court documents first obtained by TMZ. After tying the knot in October 2004, Barker and Moakler announced their split in August 2006. They later reconciled briefly, only to break it off again. They have two children together, four-year-old son Landon and two-year-old daughter Alabama. Moakler also has an eight-year-old daughter, Atiana, from her previous relationship with Oscar de la Hoya.
Honestly, we're not even sure that Travis and Shanna's kids care about their divorce to be honest. Especially little Alabama – she's probably already hatching a plan to poison them both in their sleep for giving her such a shitty name.
Although divorces can be pretty emotionally gruelling, they usually give each party change to indulge in some of the behaviour they enjoyed before they got married. However, we're hoping that this won't happen to Travis Barker and Shanna Moakler, because their main hobbies seem to include making godawful Stickle-Brick pop punk that only idiots like and beating Paris Hilton up in nightclubs.
OK, so we're only hoping that 50 percent of those things won't happen.

MTV should have a reality show where Dolly Parton and Travis Barker try to get along in a cramped apartment. They could call it, “Tit For Tat.”

“She’s a little bit country…And he’s a little bit Stickle-Brick pop punk that only idiots like”
Andrew says
ok so they got divorced and now each of them says “children are my main priority” and they don have time for anything else – so ….. why dont u stay together WITH the kids since they are both of your priorities.

Chanel says
i loved meet the barkers. i thought the show was so cute. and they were really cute to together, i think that they both just had busy lives and when your famous and always gone its hard to keep a relationship goin without the media knowing everything and accussing the other person of cheating. it ruins alot of relationships.
