MTV Curse Meets the Barkers

This is getting serious.

Following in the footsteps of Nick Lachey & Jessica Simpson and Carmen Electra and Dave Navarro, Blink-182 drummer and MTV reality star Travis Barker is seeking a split from his wife of less than two years, former Miss USA Shanna Moakler, People magazine reported Tuesday.

Barker's rep, Dvora Vener, said that Barker filed for divorce Tuesday morning but declined to offer any other details behind the breakup.

Season two of the couple's reality series, Meet the Barkers, premiered in January, with the last episode celebrating the Christmas Eve birth of their daughter, Alabama. Barker and Moakler also have a two-year-old son, Landon, and Moakler has a seven-year-old daughter, Atiana, with ex-boyfriend Oscar De La Hoya.

All three kids were featured on Meet the Barkers, which, in the tradition of The Osbournes, set out to tell the tale of a rocker and his own madcap version of domesticity.

"My only concern right now is for the welfare and best interests of my children," Moakler said in a statement released by her publicist.

Barker and Moakler decided to part ways with their happy home--literally--early last month, putting the 12,000 square-foot Bel Air villa, where much of their show was filmed, on the market for $8.5 million.

The 2001 Playboy Playmate got hitched to her heavily tattooed hubby in a Nightmare Before Christmas-inspired ceremony on Halloween in 2004, which made perfect sense considering Barker popped the question while the duo were riding through Disneyland's Haunted Mansion.

Meet the Barkers now joins Newlyweds: Nick and Jessica and Carmen & Dave: Til Death Do Us Part in the MTV canon of series chronicling the charmed lifestyles of temporarily happy, but ultimately divorce-bound couples.

Before their relationship entered the postmortem phase, Barker and Moakler, who's set to compete on the third season of Dancing with the Stars later this year, guest-starred on an episode of CSI together.

After Blink-182 announced they were going on "indefinite hiatus" last year, Barker teamed up with guitarist and fellow Blink-mate Mark Hoppus to form Plus-44 (a reference to the international dialing code for the United Kingdom), which Hoppus has described as "punk rock meets '80s synth-rock." The band's first album, Little Death, is due out in October.
