It’s the end of the road for Glee actress Jane Lynch and wife Dr. Lara Embry. The couple has decided to divorce after three years of marriage.

“Lara and I have decided to end our marriage. This has been a difficult decision for us as we care very deeply about one another. We ask for privacy as we deal with this family matter,” Lynch said in a statement according to People.

Embry and Lynch met at a fundraiser in 2009, and married a year later in an intimate wedding in Massachusetts.

The 40 Year Old Virgin actress gushed about the first time she met her wife and stepdaughter Haden saying according to On Top Mag, “The day after I met my wife, I met my daughter. I don't really like kids; I'm a dog person. But you couldn't have designed a better kid for me.”

She calls Haden “witty, wise beyond her years,” and noting that she “has a huge heart, and such patience with the frailties of human nature.”

The couple has not revealed the cause of their split.
Currently Lynch can be seen playing Miss. Hannigan in Annie: The Musical.
