Ricki Lake Files Divorce From Husband Christian Evans, Marriage Breakdown Due To ‘Irreconcilable Differences’

Ricki Lake files divorce from husband Christian Evans on October 16. According to E! News the talk show host cited irreconcilable differences as the reason for their relationship breakdown. Lake put October 9 as their date of separation of their two years and six months marriage.

Reportedly, Christopher David Evans, referred as Christian by Lake, a jewellery designer, wedded on April 8, 2012. The now estranged couple has no children together.

On Monday, Lake expressed her feelings by posting in Twitter.

"One of the only good things about heartbreak.. The lbs that are lost," Lake tweeted. "This #shapeshifter has gone in the other direction. #thankful."

According to E! Evans is Lake's second husband after having a breakup with Sussman eight years beforehand. Reportedly, Lake told Huffington Post in 2012 that she had become "pretty cynical about marriage" before meeting Evans.

"Thankfully Christian came into my life and turned my life upside down. I have never felt as loved and nurtured and accepted as I am in this relationship," she said. "He's just opened my world. It's profound."

However, "things started to fall apart" when Evans went to Ibiza alone the week of her birthday, a source told Radar Online.

"Christian did go to Ibiza, but Ricki knew about it," the source tells Radar. "She didn't necessarily approve because he would be gone for her birthday, but he told her he would contact her every day, which he did," the source says.

The source reveals that when Christian returned, Ricki said "he was not the same person that she married, and that he had just changed too much for her,"

"The day he returned from his trip, they went to see the therapist for a two-hour session," the source added.

Unfortunately, report says that the therapy didn't work for the two who decided to end their marriage.

According to TMZ, Lake is willing to pay for spousal support to Evans.
