Jane Lynch marriage to Lara Embry comes to end after 3 years Actress Jane Lynch (R) and Lara Embry File/UPI/Jim Ruymen Jane Lynch has announced she is divorcing her wife after being married for three years. Lynch, 52, and clinical psychologist wife Lara Embry, 44, met at a fundraiser in San Francisco in 2009. They got engaged and were married in 2010 on Memorial Day in a small ceremony in Massachusetts, where same sex marriage is legal. The "Glee" star said that the divorce was "a difficult decision for [them] as [they] care very deeply about one another." During their marriage, Lynch became very close to Embry's daughter Haden. "My greatest pleasure is Haden, my stepdaughter," Lynch said in April. I am surprised how much love you feel, and how you would do anything for your children. Lynch is busy starring as Miss Hannigan in "Annie: The Musical" on Broadway. She performed a number from the musical for the Tony Awards on Sunday. The couple does not have a prenuptial agreement and will be required to split their assets 50/50. A California judge is likely to dissolve the marriage. Although gay marriage is not legal in California, the state does recognize legal out-of-state same sex marriages when performed in states where gay marriage is legal.
