Heidi Montag Files For Divorce From Spencer Pratt

'Both parties are amicable,' Heidi's rep says of split.

In June, Heidi Montag [article id="1641068"]filed for legal separation[/article] from her husband of over a year, Spencer Pratt. On Friday (July 30), Montag's attorney Jodeane Farrell released a statement noting that her client had filed for divorce from Pratt. The two were married in [article id="1610024"]April 2009[/article].

"Heidi has amended her petition for separation and today has filed a petition for dissolution of marriage from Spencer Pratt," her 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."

According to People, the divorce petition, which was filed in Santa Monica, Calif., cites irreconcilable differences. While Pratt has been busy tweeting and working on several websites since the separation was announced earlier this summer, Montag has maintained a relatively low profile.

Pratt recently [article id="1640396"]spoke about the separation[/article], saying that Heidi "doesn't want to be Speidi anymore. She wants to be Heidi Montag: the sex symbol."

"We love each other, but I'm a famewhore and I'll never grow out of it," [article id="1643914"]Pratt said[/article]. "[Heidi] knows that and doesn't want that. I want every kind of press. She believes in bad press. There's no way my love for fame and her love for puppies will ever work out successfully. She just wants to hike and hang out and be calmer."

On Thursday night, Pratt was busy
