Nick Lachey also said that going through his divorce with Jessica Simpson has given him a new perspective. “You’re presented with obsticles in life. I’ve had some tough times to deal with in the past year and hopefully I’ve tried to take the high road.” Well, Lachey seems to be very happy with his new love, Vanessa Minnillo.
