Months after defending her husband, record producer Jimmy Green, in a tough to watch sit-down with “Entertainment Tonight,” Lark Voorhies has turned her back on her marriage.
According to reports, the “Saved By The Bell” alumn has filed for divorce from Green, after just six months of marriage. As previously reported, the actress eloped with the hitmaker in Las Vegas after about a year of dating, in April. The couple met on Facebook. Soon after, she found herself on the defense after her mother criticized the couple’s relationship dynamic.
In addition to defending her marriage, Voorhies slammed claims that she’s bipolar. “I have always been mentally healthy, 100 percent stable,” said Voorhies, admitting, however, that she has struggled at times. “I had a sweep with, um . . . textbook clinical depression in remove of my first marriage, but that is basically all it’s been,” she added.
As for her mother’s concerns regarding her soon to be ex-husband, it sounded as though she was once supportive. “The support was there, you know, uh, specific as necessary,” she said. “Exact. It’s all celebratory so it’s a very strong, powerful, ongoing…and we carry that through …”
“He’s not [taking advantage of me],” Voorhies, 41, said when asked point-blank if that was the case. “We’re selectively together for all the right reasons.”
Unfortunately, like many relationships in Hollywood, it appears that “all the right reasons” just weren’t enough. A source tells TMZ that the union was in fact a train wreck from the start. Voorhies is reportedly fighting to deny Green spousal support.
