Despite preceding over a divorce court, Lynn doesn't have all of the answers to relationship woes herself. She revealed in the op-ed that she and Eric, who she only ever referred to as Big E, "were off the road and deep in the weeds." Basically, Lynn cited issues in their communication style that were resolved when the couple took a year to reevaluate.
"We no longer act on that right-now feeling without considering long-term consequences," she said at the time. Later, she added, "We have made a conscious decision to be consciously married."
Our thoughts are with Eric's family and friends during this difficult time.
