Jillian Lauren-Shriner Files for Divorce From Weezer Bassist Scott Shriner After 20 Years

The petition follows her placement in a two-year mental-health diversion that could dismiss felony gun charges if she completes court-ordered treatment.

Overview

  • Lauren-Shriner filed on Tuesday citing irreconcilable differences and asked for joint legal and physical custody of their sons, ages 17 and 13.
  • Court documents request spousal support, attorney fees, restoration of her maiden name, and termination of the court’s ability to award Scott Shriner spousal support.
  • The couple married in November 2005 in Hawaii and share two adopted sons, identified in reports as Tariku Moon, 17, and Jovanni Starshine, 13.
  • Police say Lauren-Shriner fired a handgun during an April 8 encounter in Los Angeles; she was initially booked on attempted murder, later charged with assault and negligent discharge, and pleaded not guilty in May.
  • A judge approved a two-year mental-health diversion in September with therapy, random testing, Alcoholics Anonymous meetings, and a weapons ban, with a progress report due January 9 and dismissal possible upon successful completion.
