It’s over for Tom Arnold and Ashley Groussman.
After announcing last month that they were splitting after nine years of marriage, Arnold filed for divorce on Wednesday in Los Angeles, The Blast reported. Arnold, 59, is requesting joint custody of their two children, Jax and Quinn. The exes are privately mediating a settlement to deal with all the financial details.
The actor confirmed in January that Groussman had moved out of their shared home.
“For the last … three years, it’s been very unusual in the house,” Arnold told Us Weekly. “But my kids and I have a whole life, a wonderful life. I’ve been telling my wife, ‘It’s OK. Just do whatever you gotta do.’ So, she moved out.”
“It’s a long time coming and we have been together for almost 11 years. And very grateful. I have many good years,” Arnold said. “I have my children because of my wife.”
This was Arnold’s fourth marriage. He was previously married to Julie Champnella, Shelby Roos and Roseanne Barr.
