Last month Jane Lynch announced that she and her wife of three years, Dr. Lara Embry, were getting a divorce. Lynch recently appeared on Larry King’s show and he pressed her with questions about the split. Lynch explained that she and Embry remained friendly as Lynch and Embry’s 10-year-old daughter Haden had grown close.
Lynch, 52, who’s been busy playing Miss Hannigan in the Broadway revival of Annie and prepping for her show Hollywood Game Night, and Embry, 44, met at 2009 fundraiser in San Francisco. The pair married in 2010 in Sunderland, Mass.
Here’s what Lynch told King about the break-up.
