Longtime American Pie actress Mena Suvari and ex-hubby Simone Sestito ended their marriage on a cordial note after a year and a half of marriage, according to UsMagazine.com. Suvari’s rep tells TMZ, “Neither party will pay the other any support,” after Sestito formerly requested a little over $17,000 dollars a month. The 33-year old star denied rumors that being in the spotlight played a role in her split with the concert promoter in Boston Common magazine. Suvari said, “It’s taken years to get to know myself. I had never really taken time to cultivate who I was.” This marks the actress’ second divorce after her 2005 split with cinematographer Robert Brinkmann.
