Lake captioned a photo of both smiling and hugging, wholehearted condolence, which reads,
‘It is with a heavy heart that I share that my beloved soulmate, Christian Evans has passed. The world didn’t understand this man, but I did.”
According to Lake’s article, Evan succumbed to bipolar disease for an extended length of time, although the actual cause of death has not been revealed. Additionally, she wrote,
“He succumbed to his life long struggle with bipolar disorder. For anyone who has ever lost a family member or friend to mental illness, my heart goes out to you.”
Additionally, the 48-year-old actress expressed her condolences to all families who have lost a friend or family member to mental illness and continued to describe how much Evan meant to her.
Lake also discussed the time she spent with Evan, adding,
“ I am a greater person for having known him and spent the past 6 and a half years of my life with him. He was a man of love and what mends my broken heart today is knowing that he is finally at peace and his spirit is free. “
And she concluded her two-year emotional revelation of her husband’s death by adding,
“Rest in peace, my love.”
Lake and Evan began dating in 2010 when a friend introduced them to jewelry designer Christian Evan. They married in April 2012.
However, after only a couple of years, Lake filed for divorce, citing ‘irreconcilable differences.’
Later that year, in 2014, the two revealed that their divorce was on hold, but was granted divorce in 2015.
After all of that, it’s obvious that Lake appreciated the moment she shared with Evan.
Lake was previously married in 1994 to illustrator-bartender Rob Sussman, with whom she shares two boys, Milo, 19, and Owen, 15.
