Wynonna Judd Files for Divorce After Husband’s Arrest

Allie @ Gone Hollywood | Wednesday, March 28, 2007

Wynonna Judd filed for divorce Tuesday from her estranged husband, less than a week after his arrest in Texas on sex charges involving a minor. I would divorce his ass too!

Dan R. Roach, 49, was arrested Thursday in Abilene and charged with three counts of aggravated sexual battery against a child younger than 13 in Nashville, police said.

He was expected to be extradited to Nashville, said police spokesman Don Aaron. It wasn’t known if he had an attorney.

“I am obviously devastated,” Judd said in a statement posted on her Web site. “Our family will pull together, begin the healing process and hopefully — by the Grace of God — become stronger. We will move forward with our faith, family and our friends to find resolution to this difficult situation.”

Aaron said an investigation by the department’s sex crimes unit started in February.

Judd cited irreconcilable differences as a reason for divorce in the complaint filed in the Nashville suburb of Williamson County. The couple, who were married in November 2003, have been separated since Feb. 18, according to the complaint.

A spokesperson from the Taylor County Jail in Texas said that a warrant was issued in Tennessee for Roach and that he’s being held on $750,000 bond.

Roach had been receiving treatment for drug and alcohol addiction at a rehabilitation clinic in Buffalo Gap, Texas, since Feb. 21, Judd said.

The couple have no children. Judd has children from a previous marriage.

The National Enquirer reports that Roach was arrested at the rehab center, the same facility where Judd battled a food addiction a year ago.
