Jillian Shriner, the wife of Weezer bassist Scott Shriner, has filed for divorce.
The filing comes less than a year after she was arrested for attempted murder, following a police shootout.
As per the documents obtained by TMZ, Jillian cited “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the split.
Jillian, who has been married to Scott for 20 years, is also seeking joint custody of the pair’s two sons, who are aged 17 and 13.
She made headlines in April when she was arrested for attempted murder following a police altercation.
During the incident, Los Angeles Police Department officers witnessed Jillian in a “neighbouring residence armed with a handgun.”
A statement at the time detailed, “The officers ordered (Jillian) to drop the handgun numerous times. However, she refused. (Jillian) then pointed the handgun at the officers, and an Officer-Involved Shooting occurred.”
USA Today reported in September that a judge ruled “Jillian would undergo a two-year mental health diversion programme”, as shared with the outlet by her lawyer.
One month before Jillian’s arrest, she shared via Instagram that she was recovering from cancer treatment.
“Yes, I have a little bit of the C word y’all,” she posted. “I know a lot of us do.”
Scott Shriner spoke about his estranged wife, Jillian Shriner’s arrest after the incident occurred, telling TMZ that the pair were getting through a “tough time.”
