When it comes to breakups, there are two options: to be or not to be friends with your ex. And it’s no different for celebs. Well, except that news of the breakup is in every ‘bloid and they’ll be asked about it in every interview for the rest of their lives, which is not uncomfortable at all. In a recent interview with Ryan Seacrest, Avril Lavigne said of ex hubby, Sum 41 singer Deryk Whibley, “We still work together all the time. He’s one of my best friends … We’ve been friends for a really long time, and we always will be. We’re family and we have a connection.” Hmm … there are three possible interpretations of that statement: 1. It’s true. 2. She’s still in love with him. 3. She hates him, but her publicist told her to say nice things until the divorce is finalized. [People]
