Hilary bids farewell to Joel

People has a tiny bit more information that confirms that Hilary Duff has broken up with Joel Madden:

It’s over for the tattooed rocker and his teen queen: Good Charlotte’s Joel Madden and Hilary Duff have broken up after nearly two and a half years together, his manager confirms to PEOPLE.

"I can indeed confirm that Joel is single," the band’s manager, Steve Feinberg, says. "We are not going to elaborate on Joel’s personal life but I will say they have split."

Madden made a DJ appearance at Chicago hot spot Enclave on Wednesday night, and according to a source, told clubgoers he and Duff had split up. He "seemed pretty upset," the witness said.

Madden, 27, and Duff, 19, only went public as a couple last year, with Madden co-producing and co-writing three tracks on her greatest-hits album, Most Wanted.

"I’ve found the perfect person," Madden told PEOPLE in October of Duff. "She’s confident, she accepts me for my imperfections and she is good to me. I never have to question if she’s going to be there, because I know she will be."

It’s such tragic news and I hope it was for the best, that both will be happy.

    For one, none of you know them personally. No one knows what actually happened. And for two, why the fuck are you crying??? It wasn’t your relationship and you weren’t involved in it in any way. What the fuck is wrong with you people? And for three-WHO GIVES A FLYING FUCK?! YOU DONT EVEN KNOW THEM! YOU ALL SUCK COCK AND BALLS!

    Personally, I think Hilary is just 19, she got a long path ahead of her. Basically, she is only a kid..she don’t need any man at this age…I mean she have a loving family by her side. That’s exactly what she needed at this age. I would suggest that she should stay focused & concentrate on her career. I could see that she’s a hard-working person, caring & loving.. example: charity works & donations, loves her parents & sister, determined, and special …unlike other teen celebrities in Hollywood…she do cared about her fans b/c she thinks that she’s responsible in setting a good example for them…

    As for the break-up, I don’t think it’s fair that you people started to attack her without any knowledge of the “real truth” behind this…Joel have spoken on his behalf…but Hil never responded…Maybe she is also hurt…so please give the kid a break…stop attacking her…there’s always a reason behind this…as for her…I think she is a rational person…so I will repect it if it’s her choice…Personally, I don’t think Joel suit her at all…maybe when she was younger when she was naive…but now she has grown up to be an intelligent & elegant individual. I don’t want to look at things from a colored glass, but that’s just my opinion.

    There’s one song, I really liked on her “Metamorphosis” cd…called “Inner Strength” written by her sister.

    Lyrics:

    Gotta find your inner strength
    If you can’t then just throw life away
    Gotta learn to rely on you

    Beauty, strength, and wisdom, too
    You’re beautiful inside and out
    Lead a great life withould a doubt
    Don’t need a man to make things fair
    ‘Cuz more than likely he won’t be there
    Listen girl, gotta know it’s true
    In the end all you’ve got is you

    Well,I suppose everyone is entitled to his or her own opinion. BUT you’re making it sound you actually know the people in GC Tara. No offence or anything =)

  12. By Tara [DCMA FOR LIFE!]

    Alright this is going to sound very mean but hopefully you guys can relize that Ihave been a HARDCORE fan of GC/JOEL for 4 years.

    WHY WOULD SHE DO THAT? THAT POOR GUY HAD HIS HEART BROKEN SO MANY TIMES. AND FOR HER TO DO THIS TO HIM IS JUST DISGUSTING. YOU READ THAT QUOTE HE READ ABOUT HER, YOU’VE SEEN ALL THE PICTURES THAT HE WAS SO HAPPY IN AND THEN FOR THAT STUPID WHORE TO RIP IT ALL OUT FROM UNDERNEATH HIM IS JUST…messed up to say the least.

    AT FOR ME TO THINK SHE WAS GOOD FOR HIM. I DON’T KNOW WHAT SHE WAS TRYING TO PULL WITH THAT STUNT BUT YOU CAN BET THAT I’M NOT HAPPY. and if she thinks she can find a better, more loyal, funnier, NICER guy than him. THEN BOY IS SHE WRONG.

    thanks for listening. :D

    Where exactly did you get that piece of info from maila? Gosh, the stalker must be over the moon =.=”…Hope he doesn’t try to do anything thinking she dumped joel for him

  16. By maila

    Can I just say please (whoever controls this site!) not to get rid of Joel madden or good charlottes board on here and still update us on them! plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

  17. By maila

    im upset!
    they were perfect!..but apparently joel said that their age difference was the breaking factor but apparently it was because of the stalker situation read this:
    LATEST: HILARY DUFF and JOEL MADDEN’s recent split came after the rocker refused to take threats a stalker made against his girlfriend seriously, according to US reports. The pop star, 19, and the GOOD CHARLOTTE rocker, 27, originally blamed the split on their age difference, but other factors behind the break-up have now come to light. Earlier this month (NOV06), police arrested a man who is allegedly obsessed with Duff and had threatened to harm her. A source tells American publication Us Weekly, “Hilary has been so freaked out about it, but Joel didn’t think it was as big of a deal. They fought about it all the time. He wants less drama.”

    not sure if true thou but sounds more tur thenthe age gap thing becuase if it was the age gap they wouldnt have went out for as long as they did!
