By: Wayne D. Ayers II 

Naya Rivera has filed for divorce from Ryan Dorsey, 10 days after her arrest for domestic battery against her husband.

The 30-year-old, who has been married to Ryan, 34, for three years, is citing irreconcilable differences in the filing, according to TMZ. 

She is asking for joint custody of their two-year-old son Josey and wants the court to block spousal support for either party.

The former Glee star has enlisted the services of power lawyer Laura Wasser whose client list has included stars Ryan Reynolds, Heidi Klum, Ashton Kutcher and Christina Aguilera.

The actress previously filed for divorce in November 2016 but the couple appeared to have reconciled and she dismissed the filing. 

Naya was arrested on November 25 after Ryan called the police and alleged Naya hit him over the head during an argument over their son.

TMZ reports that Naya has listed the date of their separation as November 24, the day before the alleged assault.
