The rumored custody battle between Halle Berry and Gabriel Aubry might be coming to a close, reports People.  The duo, who split last April, have been recently engaging the court’s help to solve their issues revolving around their daughter, Nahla, 3.  “When there’s a child involved, it’s a relief when you can resolve things in a good way,” says Berry, who also mentioned that the court proceedings have gone well.  “Our issues were never about fighting for her.  We both know a child needs both her parents. But what I want to say about it is sometimes, as a couple, you reach an impasse.  We needed a court and a judge to help us work out some of the delicate issues, and I’m so happy we’ve arrived at that place — because for her sake, this is the best way.  We both love her more than life.”

A simple divorce may be easier said than done when it comes to Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz, reports People. The pair announced the end of their two year marriage last month when Simpson filed for divorce.  Initially, the couple made a joint statment saying, “We remain friends and deeply committed and loving parents to our son Bronx, whose happiness and well-being remains our No. 1 priority.” Now, Wentz has filed a divorce response in Los Angeles. Simpson had orginally filed for divorce requesting sole custody of their two-year-old son. Wentz’s request seeks joint custody. Since the divorce proceedings still fairly fresh, it’s difficult to say whether or not a custody battle is in the works.
