LOS ANGELES Jan 10, 2006 — The "Newlyweds" home of divorcing Hollywood couple Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey is being bought by "Malcolm in the Middle" teen actor Justin Berfield.

Simpson's publicist, Rob Shuter, announced just on Monday that the Calabasas, Calif. home was for sale. The house had been listed for $3.75 million.

Hope Diamond, Berfield's publicist, confirmed the sale Tuesday, but wouldn't disclose the price.

The 19-year-old Berfield plays the bullying middle child, Reese, on Fox's "Malcolm in the Middle."

1. It's sort of depressing to think.....

that a 19 year old can afford to buy a $3.75 million dollar home and I can't. :cry:

3. Yep...that was my first thought.

Regardless of whether or not it's "hard-earned money" (a matter of opinion) or not, that's a lot of ducats for a 19 year old. Makes me think of the working class folks who toil and save and scrimp their whole lives to afford a fix-er-upper.

2. Hope Diamond?

That has to be a fake name.
