Jennie Garth's husband David Abrams has filed for divorce from the actress after two years of marriage. According to the court documents that were obtained by The Blast, Adams filed for divorce on Friday (April 6) and cited irreconcilable differences as the reason for their split. 

In the documents, the date of their separation has been listed as August 29, 2017. The pair met in the fall of 2014 on a blind date. They felt an instant connection and in March 2015 they got engaged and soon tied the knot. Speaking to People about their marriage, Jennie said, "It was unreal. It was perfect.” The actress opened up about how everything turned out like they were destined to be together. 

"Things just lined up and I was like, I don't need it, I don't want it,’ and there it came,” she added. “He completes me.” Previously, a source close to the couple had told the magazine that even though the pair had not split, things were not so good between them. 

The source added that the couple was “going through a rocky patch.” Another source had suggested that despite the problems the pair was not planning on filing for a divorce and were rather looking at solving the problems between them. This will be the third divorce for Jennie. She was married to Daniel B. Clark from 1994 to 1996 and Peter Facinelli from 2001 to 2012. 

The actress shares daughters Luca, 20, Lola, 15, and Fiona, 11, with her ex-husband Peter Facinelli. A day before Adam filed for divorce, Jennie opened up about her thoughts on relationships in an interview with US Weekly. “We as women forget about ourselves. And we take care of everyone else. And pretty soon, you don’t know who you are anymore,” she said. 

"I think in general it’s important that you need to focus on you and what makes you happy and what makes you you. You know? And if you lose sight of that, in any relationship you're in, it’s not gonna be as successful as it could be.” She also added how often people forget to care for themselves and get too consumed in relationships but one can work things out if they know how to manage things.
