Glee’s Jane Lynch and her wife of three years, Dr Lara Embry, are getting a divorce.
“Lara and I have decided to end our marriage,” Jane told People in a statement.
“This has been a difficult decision for us as we care very deeply about one another. We ask for privacy as we deal with this family matter.”
The 52-year-old actress recently moved out of the pair’s LA home, a source told Us Weekly. Since meeting in 2009 at a gala for the National Centre for Lesbian Rights, the pair have made no secret of their love for each other. Lara, 44, and Jane married the following year.
“I had stopped dating altogether. I mean, you have to sit down and think, ‘How do you trust your judgement?’ But I saw Jane walking in the lobby and I thought, ‘I’m supposed to follow her.’ It was like I’d been picked up in a fishing net,” Lara told Vogue magazine of the night the pair first met.
Jane, who is currently starring as Miss Hannigan in Annie: The Musical, performed at the Tony Awards in New York on Sunday.
