Washington, Oct 15 : Avril Lavigne has filed for divorce in Los Angeles in an attempt to dissolve her three-year marriage to estranged husband Deryck Whibley, Los Angeles court documents show.

The Canadian punk pop princess, 24, has also asked the court to deny spousal support to Whibley, according to reports.
