Ricki Lake has filed for divorce

Ricki Lake and Christian Evans seemed like a pretty okay couple, from what little I knew about them. However, everything wasn’t all that great in their marriage, apparently, since they only got married in April 2012 and now they’re getting divorced already. Yikes.

From People:

The 47-year-old former talk show host separated from Evans, 42, on Oct. 9, and filed for divorce a week later, according to court filings in Los Angeles. She is expected to pay Evans spousal support.

Lake, the mom of two boys Milo, 17, and Owen, 13, told PEOPLE in 2011 that she began dating Evans, a jewelry designer, during the summer of 2010. At the time, she described him as a “normal guy. We met through my best friend. He’s a nobody but he’s somebody to me. He’s everything to me.”

Huh, for things to go south so quickly, you’d think something big went on here – infidelity, perhaps, or something similar, but who knows? Either way, hopefully Ricki can find happiness again soon… and yes, I’m actually being sincere. What can I say? You caught me on a nice day.

  • Huh. “He’s a nobody”. I think I’ve sussed out one of the possible problems! It’s always a shame when people divorce, though

  • He’s supposed to be bi-polar and she owes him $125,000 and his job as a jewelry designer isn’t that great. SO he’s also a nobody which doesn’t help matters. AND she’s prolly a betch.

  • I read he took off for a trip to Belize or some place like that and forgot to tell/invite his wife and didn’t answer her calls when he was there.
