Terry McMillan divorcing 'Groove' muse

Terry McMillan SAN FRANCISCO, California (AP) -- Author Terry McMillan has filed for divorce from the man who inspired the 1996 novel "How Stella Got Her Groove Back," which chronicled the romantic adventures of a 40-something woman who falls for a guy half her age.

In papers filed in Contra Costa County Superior Court, McMillan, 53, says she decided to end her 6 1/2-year marriage to Jonathan Plummer, 30, after learning he is gay.

The revelation led her to conclude Plummer married only to get his U.S. citizenship, she said. McMillan met Plummer at a Jamaican resort a decade ago.

1. That sucks...hope she atleast got good fashion tips!

:sarcasm:

That is a double sad thing actually....I read her book and I think if he was her "muse" she really had it big for this guy....so to find out that he married her for citizenship and then is gay to boot must have been very hard.

I feel bad for her. Kind of embarrassing
