A few days after news came out that Chad Johnson refused to sign divorce documents filed by his wife, Evelyn Lozada, it looks as though Chad has had a change of heart, filing divorce papers in a Florida court.

TMZ reports:

Chad Johnson has finally accepted the fact that his marriage to Evelyn Lozada is over … and has filed divorce docs in which he admits the union is “irretrievably broken” … TMZ has learned. 

Johnson filed the papers yesterday in a Florida court … in response to the docs Evelyn filed back on August 14. In his papers, Chad admits the two have a prenup that he believes should be enforced — especially the part about who pays for the lawyers. 

According to the docs, Johnson wants a judge to BLOCK Evelyn’s request that Chad foot the bill for her legal fees … citing a provision in the prenup in which the two sides agreed to pay their own way if they were to split up. 
The divorce has not been finalized yet … but at this point, it’s only a matter of time … and sources close to Evelyn tell us she’s “ecstatic” and ready to move on.

Chad and Evelyn were married on July 4 before getting into a domestic dispute just a month later, ultimately ending their marriage. He was charged with battery and plead not guilty just this morning. We wish them both the best.
