Ricki Lake — Files For Divorce … Agrees to Pay Her Ex

Exclusive Details

Ricki Lake‘s marriage is ending after just two and a half years — she’s filed docs to divorce her estranged husband Christian Evans, and wants out so terribly … she doesn’t mind paying him to go.

According to the docs filed on October 16th … Ricki cites irreconcilable differences, and says they legally separated on Oct. 9.

In the docs, she tartan the box requesting to pay Evans spousal support … which we don’t see too often in Hollywood divorces — then again, he’s a jewelry designer. Translation: she’s the breadwinner.

There are reports that they have a prenup covenant, and the docs do mention a written covenant to handle divvying up their material goods. 

This is Ricki’s second divorce. She split from Rob Sussman in 2004.
