Jane Lynch, Wife Finalize Divorce In Los Angeles

LOS ANGELES (AP) — A judge has finalized Jane Lynch's divorce from her wife more than four years after the couple were married.

Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Ralph C. Hofer approved the pair's divorce judgment Monday. The agreement calls for Lara Embry, a clinical psychologist, to receive half Lynch's royalties from several entertainment projects, including several seasons of the TV series "Glee."

Lynch and Embry were married on Memorial Day in 2010 in Massachusetts. Lynch filed for divorce in July 2013, citing irreconcilable differences.

The 54-year-old actress has won two Emmy Awards, one for her role as Sue Sylvester on the Fox series "Glee" and another award for hosting the show "Hollywood Game Night."

The judgment was first reported Tuesday by the celebrity website TMZ.
