In the documents, which were filed without a lawyer, Thorne-Smith cited “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the split, according to TMZ.
Thorne-Smith reportedly filed for joint legal and physical custody of the former couple’s son Jacob Emerson, 17, and asked the court to terminate her and Fishman’s rights to spousal support.
The “Ally McBeal” star also revealed in her filing that the exes have been separated since September 2021.
The Post has reached out to Thorne-Smith’s rep for comment.
Thorne-Smith married Fishman on New Year’s Day in 2007. Their son was born in January 2008.
The actress was previously married to geneticist Andrew Conrad from 2000 to 2001. She also dated her “Melrose Place” co-star Andrew Shue in the early 1990s.
In an interview with People last year, Thorne-Smith recalled being “charmed” by Shue, 58, when they filmed the pilot of the soap opera.
“I did remember shooting with Andrew for the first time. The scene that I remember that we talked about that was so much fun was him dancing. When he’s dancing — you can actually see it in my face — how charmed I am,” Thorne-Smith shared. “I was being completely charmed by Andrew in that moment. It was so adorable.”
“So I just remember him and him coming in with this sweet, sweet energy and how much fun it was to do that with him,” she added.
Thorne-Smith reunited with Shue on an Aug. 2024 episode of her “Still the Place” podcast, where she said that their breakup was “shockingly not weird,” while Shue admitted that “there was a little bit of time where it was tough.”
The exes also reminisced on the “no tongue” kissing rule for their characters that they set in place after their split.
“Our relationship, we helped carry each other through a very intense time,” Shue told Thorne-Smith. “The show got a lot of attention. I know you had already been fairly well known, but we were dealing with a lot of, we’ll call it Fox celebrity craziness.”
“And I remember just feeling safe knowing we were together guiding each other through it,” Shue added.
Thorne-Smith and Shue starred in “Melrose Place” with Heather Locklear, Thomas Calabro, Grant Show, Laura Leighton, Marcia Cross, Doug Savant and more.
