The weirdest story ever just keeps getting weirder...
Vili Fualaau filed for legal separation yesterday from wife Mary Kay Letourneau, but they're not having marital problems, the 33-year-old told Radar in a bizarre interview. In case you forgot, Letourneau served more than seven years in prison for having sex with Fualaau when he was her sixth grade student back in 1996. They went on to marry and have two children together.
"It’s not necessarily what you think. Everything is fine between us. All the rumors that you hear between us. It’s fine. Of course [we are still in love]. A piece of paper doesn’t break someone’s feelings!" he told the outlet.
Umm, what?
Apparently, he's looking to get licensed as a distributor for Cigaweed†marijuana cigarettes, and being married to a felon isn't going to help the licensure process.
"When you want to get licensed, they do background checks on both parties. If I decide to be a part of it I have to be licensed and I have to be vetted and so does a spouse. She has a past. She has a history," he explained.
Letourneau doesn't seem to like this idea very much, because she just filed a petition with the court to have her husband's separation case dismissed, TMZ reports. Vili's lawyer says her client is moving forward with his case anyway.
Sounds like they need to get on the same page!
