"House of Cards" star Molly Parker is reportedly facing a difficult time in her personal life. After long years of being in an on and off relationship, her husband decided to call it quits and finally dissolve their marriage. Hence, the long expected divorce finally arrived.
The 44-year-old actress is reported to be dealing with a radical change in her married life. As TMZ reported, Parker's husband Benedict Matthew Bissonette has officially given up on his relationship with Molly. Their dating timeline stepped up in 2002 when Bisonnette married the actress and eventually crashed into a halt in 2009.
After another seven years of being separated from the actress, who played Jackie Sharp in the Netflix hit "House of Cards," Bissonette finally decided to cut all ties with her through divorce. The grounds are irreconcilable differences being the most accurate way to describe the couple's situation.
The former couple's divorce is said to have been done without much drama as Bissonette was cordial in laying out his side of the bargain. The actress' husband is filing for joint custody of their 10-year old son. He's not into letting either of them pay the other spousal support. Plus, he claimed that there are no assets to split, TMZ revealed.
Meanwhile, Molly continues to do what she is good at: acting. The "House of Cards" star now plays the role of Callie Senate in the new series "Goliath." Callie is a partner in her boss' Cooperman McBride's firm. In this series, fans should expect women to go head-to-head with their male counterparts.
Scenes from the law firm setting will unapologetically be about equality between the two genders. Parker expressed some concerns regarding the work scenarios presented in the series. She stated that women who are working under a powerful man needs to work twice as hard to get paid, to be respected and to get the job.
Molly Parker's fans will be refreshed to see her make a comeback in the new series that successfully premiered on Oct 14.
