From PerezHilton (I saw this on E News tonight)
Nick Keeps On Talking!
Two for the price of one!
That's right,
Jann Wenner is milking his explosive new
Nick Lachey interview by putting it on the cover of both his magazines,
Rolling Stone and
Us Weekly.
Forget
Alien Cruise; we're still not done with Nick & Jess!
"It breaks my heart that I couldn't make Jessica happy," Lachey tells the mag. "
I wanted to be everything to my wife."
Can you hear the violins playing????
Let us cry with Nick
"
I'd marry her all over again," Lachey syas, somewhat incredulously to us. "Because I still love her. It would be a lot easier to walk away if I didn't."
Lachey admits that he and Jessica went through "a tough phase" last year, though they were trying to work out their problems. That's why the end of his marriage caught him off-guard.
As the couple drove home after the American Music Awards and a post-show dinner, Simpson asked if he still planned to celebrate Thanksgiving (two days later) with her family in Texas. "I said, 'Of course.' And she said something about how we hadn't really been getting along and then said, 'I think I want a divorce.'"
Showing how invested he was in his relationship and how much of a clueless romantic he is, poor Nick begged Jess to sleep on it. “But when we woke up the next day, Wednesday . . . she was still sure. I felt like someone sucker-punched me and took my life away. My dog, my wife, the house."
Still hoping he could save his marriage, Lachey wanted to try counseling. "On the day she filed for divorce [December 16], I drove to her parents' house and tried to change her mind," he admits. "I thought we owed it to ourselves to try with a third party. . . . But
she didn't want to go [to counseling]."
And we all know Jessica needs counseling!
After all these months and the heartbreak she has caused his, Nick still - obviously - has feelings for Jessica and is quick to defend her. He says, "
Marriage is the toughest thing in the world. To blame her is bull****."
So far, Nick Lachey is coming off smelling like roses since the separation.
Jessica better get on
Oprah and start crying real soon!
