Jeremy London, Melissa Cunningham's divorce, custody battle

Jeremy London is going through a rougher time than we thought.

Not only was he kidnapped in Palm Springs last week, held captive at gunpoint and forced to smoke meth for twelve hours before he escaped, but he's also been through rehab for drug addiction and is going through a divorce and custody battle.

Melissa Cunningham is Jeremy's estranged wife.

Cunningham reportedly met London at an audition for a film he was producing in 2000. She has appeared in small films such as "Just Another Romantic Wrestling Comedy" and "Chasing the Green.

The couple got married in 2006b at the Hidden Chateau and Gardens in West Hills, Calif., and they now have a three-year-old-son named Lyrik.

In the fall of 2008 the couple announced a separation. It was reported at the time that his drug use was the cause. London has since openly spoken about rehab and his problems with prescription pills. Jeremy reportedly has twice-a-week visitation with his son, Lyrik.
 
Through it all, he has said, "Lyrik is the bright light that makes all of this worth it. If I had to change one thing and it meant not having the son I have, I'd go through every bit of it again."

Chin up, Jeremy. You're a survivor.
