Heidi Montag's birthday present from Spencer Pratt revealed: But does she wantit?
Self-promotion's gone sappy. In a convenient coincidence with Heidi Montag's birthday today, Spencer Pratt has announced to the world that he and his soon-to-be divorcée are "soulmates."
The revelation followed the couple's 12-hour detainment at a San Jose, Costa Rica airport, where Pratt was charged with carrying two undeclared, non-permitted unloaded guns in his luggage.
Pratt described the detainment as the "wildest day of either of our lives," thus resealing his bond with Heidi.
"I don't see any reason we can't get back on track," he said in Los Angeles after Saturday's incident. The couple was also pictured together at a fundraising walk in California last weekend.
Regarding the high-drama day, Heidi added in a separate statement, "As far as I'm concerned the last thing in the world we need after everything we have just been through is to go through with this divorce. But we are just taking life second by second." In a phone call, she praised Jesus for their release.
The public reconciliation is in line with last week's media display, when Spencer Pratt issued an apology via People.com to once supposedly soon-to-be ex-wife Heidi Montag regarding his treacherous recent behavior. But the hyper public "Don't be mad" statement only clarifies Pratt's yearning for publicity.
"Divorce can be a trying, draining, and emotionally devastating experience for all involved," the scruffy bad boy told People. "Despite these hardships, most individuals manage to conduct themselves with dignity and maturity. I did not — I failed spectacularly."
Although the couple already filed to divorce in July, Spence is still planning some "intense soul-searching," admitting that he was not pursuing "appropriate avenues for my issues."
The no-goods he committed were also just talk: A plan to pen a tell-all on their relationship, and supposed negotiations to sell sex tapes.
"I horribly embarrassed the one person that meant the world to me," he adds. "For my outrageous and infantile behavior, I offer Heidi the most sincere apologies."
The media darling duo has been hiding out in Costa Rica — she to find a new plastic surgeon to reduce her breasts, and he to win her back.
"Over the years, her love, support and friendship were always given, but never properly cherished. I let her down. She never deserved the pain and anguish I put her through, and although I don't expect it, I hope in time she'll be able to forgive me."
Considering that the two are in Costa Rica together, it's unclear why Pratt couldn't repent to his wife in person
But who would pay attention to that? Maybe not even Heidi.
