Vili Fualaau files for legal split
USA - Vili Fualaau has filed for legal separation from Mary Kay Letourneau, 20 years after he first fell in love with his then-grade school teacher. Fualaau submitted paperwork on May 8 in Issaquah, Washington seeking to end to his 12-year marriage to Letourneau, who is the mother of his two children. The documents state that the two own no property and have no debts, with neither party asking for spousal support. Fualaau, now 33, was just a sixth-grade student when he began having an affair with Letourneau back in 1996, despite the fact that the 34-yearold was married and had four young children. The couple first met when Fualaau was in Letourneau’s second grade class in Seattle, but did not begin to have a sexual relationship until four years later, when he was 12. Letourneau, now 55, ultimately got a divorce from her first husband and served seven years in prison to be with Fualaau, who she married shortly after her release. She gave birth to the couple’s first child while out on bail in 1997, and their second while in prison. Fualaau also stated in his filing that the couple’s two children are no longer dependent while asking for a fair division of the couple’s joint assets. Fualaau has also been working to get his DJ career up and running, spinning at a local bar on weeknights under the name DJ Headline. Fuallau was a troubled Samoan boy from a broken home living in a rough part of Seattle. His father served time in prison for an armed robbery, and he had a difficult relationship with his mother. After the birth of her second child with Fualaau, Letourneau’s husband filed for divorce and moved to Alaska with the couple’s four children. She remains close to her four children from her first marriage, and told Walters: ‘“All of our holidays were always together, and they’re very close with their sisters.’ The couple’s two daughters, Audrey and Georgia, said that they attend school and sing in a choir in the same district where their mother once taught. The Fualaau sisters said their parents have told them how they met, but they were not taken aback by the scandalous circumstances surrounding their mom and dad’s relationship. Letourneau and Fualaau also revealed back in 2015 that despite their age difference most of their arguments revolve around child-rearing these days. ‘He told them [Audrey and Georgia] several years ago that they are not permitted to have a boyfriend, and I thought to myself, ‘That’s not gonna work,’ said Letourneau with a smile. Fualaau seems to have gotten past that, and can be seen in numerous photos with his daughter Audrey and her boyfriend on Facebook.
