Ricki Lake Files For Divorce After Less Than Three Years Of Marriage

Ricki Lake and Christian Evans are getting divorced.  


Lake, 46, has filed for divorce from Christian Evans after less than three years of marriage.

The star's divorce petition is dated October 16, though she claims they went their separate ways a week prior, on October 9. 

According to celebrity website TMZ, she cites irreconcilable differences and explains that she will pay Evans, a jewelry designer, spousal support. The documents also show that there is some kind of prenuptial agreement for the division of property.





Just in case you have missed it, the pair eloped on April 8, 2012. They had gotten engaged in August 2011. They began dating in the summer of 2009.

This marks Lake's second divorce. She was first married to illustrator-bartender Rob Sussman, whom she separated in August 2003, though their divorce wasn't finalized until 2005. The two have two sons: Milo Sebastian Sussman (born March 1997), and Owen Tyler Sussman (born June 2001).




After Lake and Evans tied the knot, the TV personality gushed in a People interview: "I didn't think it would happen at this point in my life… We just clicked. It just feels like he was the right one all along."
