The three-page filing says his wife “has been guilty of inappropriate marital conduct which render further cohabitation impossible.”
The filing says Zobrist, 37, hopes the parties will enter into a marital dissolution agreement and permanent parenting plan, or for a judge to enter an order of legal separation and have the two live separately, “unless they can reconcile.”
“Husband is unsure if the marriage can be salvaged,” the filing says,
Ben and Julianna have been married since 2005 and have three kids.
