Ever since the first reports of Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt splitting up, Hills fans understandably assumed wondered if it was another big PR hoax.

Looks like it isn’t.

Almost two months after the plastic princess went to court seeking legal separation from the puppet master, the reality star has filed for divorce.

Heidi Montag cites the usual “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the pair’s split in a divorce petition filed in Santa Monica, Calif., Court.

“Heidi has amended her petition for separation and has filed a petition for dissolution of marriage from Spencer Pratt,” attorney Jodeane Farrell said. The couple has agreed they would like their divorce to be finalized in a timely manner.”

Hopefully Spencer Pratt finds comfort in his beloved crystals.

Adding that terms will be hashed out in an out of court settlement, Farrell said “both parties are amicable with each other and finalizing the divorce.”

The couple staged a sham wedding in Cabo in 2008, then tied the knot for real in April 2009 at a church in Pasadena, Calif., appearing happy.

Things went downhill fast, however.

Heidi Montag underwent 10 plastic surgery procedures in one day, fired Spencer as her manager, released terrible music, accused The Hills creator Adam DiVello of sexual harassment and became estranged from her family and so on.

For his part, Spencer Pratt has grown increasingly eccentric, and even admitted to being a fame whore and choosing his “career” over his wife.

Heidi Montag then and now. Enough said.

He echoed that sentiment yesterday to People.

“I love Heidi but our marriage was a show – it was part of The Hills world,” Pratt said after the divorce filing. “That world is on a sound stage.”

Referring to himself in the third-person, he adds: “It’s clear that reality TV-fame-loving Spencer Pratt does not fit with my ex-wife Heidi Montag’s ambitions for a motion picture actor/pop star career and being a single sex symbol for the world.”

“Some say if you can’t handle the heat get out of the kitchen, Well, Heidi couldn’t handle King Spencer’s fame so she got out of the marriage.”

Right. So basically, his stardom is just too enormous. Makes sense.

Heidi filed for legal separation in June, citing irreconcilable differences but she and Spencer were soon seen together again in Malibu filming their reality show. Now she wants to make the split official.

“Heidi has amended her petition for separation and today has filed a petition for dissolution of marriage from Spencer Pratt,” Heidi’s lawyer told People. “The couple has agreed they would like their divorce to be finalized in a timely manner in an out of court settlement. Both parties are amicable with each other and over the possibility of finalizing their divorce.”

Spencer has already given a post-divorce filing interview to Us Weekly.

“Well, some say if you can’t handle the heat get out of the kitchen. Heidi couldn’t handle King Spencer’s fame so she got out of the marriage,” he said.

Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt have both kept an uncharacteristically low profile publicly since their separation, but what’s going on behind the scenes?

We know you were dying to know.

By all indications, Heidi was moving forward with plans to divorce Spencer, who even confirmed the end of the reality TV match made in heaven … or so we thought until comments by her model friend, Lauren Stone, after stopping by her pad.

She wasn’t the only guest: Spencer Pratt was there.

“I saw Spencer, he seems really normal. He actually showed us his new project he’s working on,” Stone said. “He showed both of us a clip of the movie.”

Lauren Stone just offered up some unexpected Speidi intel.

“I thought it was really funny. I think it’s about a lifeguard that’s trying to get girls. The lifeguard is kinda of like a douchebag type of guy, not too cool.”

Okay then.

Lauren Stone says she has no idea if a reconciliation between the two are in the works but “she didn’t even know they were going through a divorce.”

Her confusion isn’t unique among fans, websites and even the plastic princess’ inner circle. Heidi Montag has kept very quiet about her personal drama.

“I’m actually not sure what’s going on,” Stone said.

“She didn’t really go into many details about anything but the way she was acting it just seemed like she was really happy and free and just living life. She’s been gardening a lot and writing music and she seems to be really happy.”

For what it’s worth, Montag recently pulled out of a planned reality show with Jen Bunney and wants to get back to her roots, whatever that means.

What do you think? Heidi and Spencer’s breakup is …

Spencer Pratt is always plotting something, but the former star of The Hills says his impending divorce from co-star wife Heidi Montag is not made-for-TV.

Despite the fact that nobody has seen divorce papers and family and Hills co-stars are skeptical, Pratt tells People that the plastic pair have drifted apart:

“We love each other but I’m a fame whore and I’ll never grow out of it. [Heidi] knows that and doesn’t want that. She wants to hike, hang out and be calmer.”

Calmer? Isn’t she pitching her own show?

“I want every kind of press. She believes in bad press. There’s absolutely no way my love for fame and her love for puppies will ever work out successfully.”

Sad, but true.

TICK TOCK: Are Spencer’s 15 minutes finally up?

Pratt, who with Heidi became known as Speidi, says his estranged wife “doesn’t want to be Speidi anymore. She wants to be Heidi Montag: the sex symbol.”

“She thought I’d burn out, but I’m still Spencer who went on The Hills to be famous. I still need to do stunts and take cues from Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise.”

Spencer Pratt, who mentions he and his ex are “friendly,” says Speidi trouble is nothing new. “It’s been a constant battle since we got married,” he says.

“She would be like, ‘Are you really Tweeting that? Are you really doing that?’”

As for the next step, Pratt says he decided to grow a beard (which he debuted in last week’s failed party-crashing bid) and turn to art: “I’m switching it up.”

“I’ve already gone for the blonde, spiky-haired look. Now I’m going for the Hollywood producer look. I’m an artist now. I have an easel and everything.”

“I’m going for an art show and a gallery.”

We hear the show’s scheduled for 14:58 …

The entire cast of The Hills, minus the vanquished Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag, but including alumni Lauren Conrad and Whitney Port, commemorated the hit MTV series’ final episode Tuesday night with one last bash in Hollywood.

So much has changed between The Hills finale and what began as a Laguna Beach spinoff 102 episodes ago. But it was great to see LC back, since she started it all.

On hand were the likes of Kristin Cavallari, Brody Jenner and Audrina Patridge, along with bit players Justin-Bobby, Lo, Stephanie, that Stacie girl and many more.

He arrived dressed as an old man at the Roosevelt Hotel across the street from the party and addressed the media.

“I wasn’t invited to that party, so I’m having my own party with the people on the Hollywood Walk of Stars! I spend a lot of time being hated and I feel like I want a little closure,” he said. “[Now] you will see the real Spencer Pratt. I’m legally released now to be free in America. Freedom of speech. So you can hear my obnoxious mouth on a whole, grander scale!”

Spencer never made it into the party as police escorted him off the hotel property.

PHOTOS:

Last night, fans said goodbye to The Hills as the very last episode of the hit MTV reality show aired. We’ll have our full recap of it for you in a little bit.

The sideshow taking place was an entirely different matter. To mark the end of an error era, the cast gathered for a live show broadcast in Hollywood.

Spencer Pratt? Not invited.

Unsurprisingly, the fame-hungry outcast turned up anyway outside the Hotel Roosevelt, disguised in a gray wig and beard, wrinkles and a large gut.

Pretty funny, but also sad that he’s resorted to such gimmicks. Desperate for attention much? It’s like a pathetic, last gasp at any kind of relevance.

It wasn’t long ago that Spencer caused the commotion. Now he clamors for attention across the street while the real action takes place inside.

How the mighty have fallen. We’re also pretty sure that’s his sidekick Emilio Masella, a.k.a. Snooki’s ex-boyfriend, behind him and to his right.

Spencer Pratt has been very … well, non-Spencer Pratt lately.

Uncharacteristically absent from the spotlight, he hasn’t been seen in public in over a month, or on The Hills, where he and Heidi Montag were cut loose without any explanation from the show, which ends its six-season run tonight.

Might he be planning a surprise – and unwelcome – public foray this evening? Implying he may crash The Hills finale party, he Tweeted on Tuesday:

“Booking my room @Roosevelt Hotel Hollywood now that I have no place to live I think i should just move in there today (to) stay near the action.”

No place to live? We know he looks like a homeless man, but is Spencer Pratt really out on the street? At least he’s comfortable as a mountain man …

Wouldn’t you know it, the Hollywood Roosevelt is the site of tonight’s finale party, for which Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag are not on the guest list.

Kristin Cavallari, Brody Jenner and other stars will be on hand, along with the show’s two most famous alumnae, Lauren Conrad and Whitney Port.

No Speidi, though, after clashes with Hills creator Adam DiVello on and off set led to an unceremonious, unexplained parting of ways with the show.

Heidi’s also moving forward with plans to divorce him, supposedly.

Cavallari calls the situation “sad,” and says as far as she knows, no one has spoken to either member of the duo since they last filmed together.

“I’ve reached out to Heidi,” says Kristin, who fixed up Speidi. “I can’t get a hold of her because she changed her number. I’d love to talk to her.”
