Avril Lavigne and Deryck Whibley seemed like the perfect rock couple. But at the age of 24, Lavigne began to see things differently, sources tell PEOPLE.

BUZZ: More Split Rumors for Avril Lavigne and Deryck Whibley
Originally posted 09/17/2009 12:45PM
Looks like Avril Lavigne may not be getting "My Happy Ending" after all: Divorce rumors just won't stop for the singer and her husband Deryck Whibley.
New reports have surfaced that the couple, who have been married three years, have split. However, no divorce papers have surfaced and reps have not returned calls for comment.
Still, the couple have been living separate lives for some time. Last month, Lavigne, 24, and Whibley, 29, emerged together at a Beverly Hills supermarket. Despite having spent several days apart – she in New York and Texas and he in L.A. – they didn't seem thrilled to be reunited, according to an observer. "She seemed distant," the eyewitness told PEOPLE at the time.

Originally posted 04/16/2008 06:45PM
Hilary Duff may have been in show business for a decade, but she's never gotten used to tangling with her fellow celebutantes.
"It's hard to find people who don't feel like they're in competition with you," she tells Allure in its May issue.
But while Duff, 20, may try to stay out of the fray, she can't help but chat – a little, anyway – about some of her peers.

Avril Lavigne Cuts Price of House
Originally posted 02/07/2008 09:45AM
Avril Lavigne apparently is as affected as much as anybody by the downturn in the housing market.
After two deals fell through, reports Forbes.com, the rocker, 23, has marked down the price for her Beverly Hills mansion, to $5.8 million.
The original price tag a year ago was $6.9 million.
The home is inside a gated community at the top of Mulholland in the Hollywood Hills, with a pool and tennis court on the grounds.
