Actor Mark-Paul Gosselaar Seeks Divorce after 14 Years of Marriage
36-year-old actor Mark-Paul Gosselaar of Saved by the Bell and NYPD Blue fame has filed for divorce from Lisa Ann Russell, his wife of fourteen years. Gosselaar filed papers in Los Angeles Superior Court on Friday, June 18, just two weeks after announcing his separation from Russell, citing irreconcilable differences as the reason for the dissolution of his marriage.
Gosselaar says he will seek joint custody of the couple's two children, 6-year-old Michael Charles and 4-year-old Ava Lorenn. A rep for the actor said in a statement that both Gosselaar and Russell "remain focused on their family and are jointly committed to their children." The next step on Gosselaar's career path looks to be a TNT buddy-lawyer comedy, Franklin & Bash. Breckin Meyer will co-star.
