Just one year after his secret wedding, Terrence Howard is getting divorced.
Howard's wife, Michelle, filed a divorce petition with a Los Angeles court on Jan. 27, the same day they separated, according to documents obtained by RadarOnline.com.
In her petition, Michelle said she's splitting from the "Law & Order: Los Angeles" star due to "irreconcilable differences."
The couple wed Jan. 20, 2010 but the 41-year-old actor didn't announce it until the Cannes Film Festival that May.
"To come here and be with my wife, it's the best feeling in the world," he told Anderson Cooper in an interview with CNN.
Michelle noted in her petition that "there are community and quasi-community assets" that they have yet to divide, though she wants "miscellaneous jewelry and other effects" to be declared separate property.
She is also seeking attorneys' fees.
This was, technically, Howard's third marriage. He married and divorced Lori McCommas, the mother of his three children, before remarrying her in 2005 and splitting again shortly after.
In 2008, Howard spoke to The Guardian about his up-and-down relationship with McCommas, saying, "She's the only woman I know I could love for the rest of my life."
"I'd marry her again, to tell you the truth," the actor said, before admitting he's been tempted by other women.
"I'm always asking, 'Is this a temporary love?'" he shared. "That's the scary thing. I fall in love real quick, but out of love even quicker."
