But initially, Lyndie had refused to give him her number because he was still married to Janice at the time. It was only after he divorced her that the two started dating. And by 1992, Kenny and Lyndie were officially a married couple.

They had two sons together (Max and Noah Gorelick) and Lyndie described their marriage as "magical years of music and romance." But after a whopping 20 years together, the relationship had fallen apart.

In January of 2012, she filed for legal separation and cited “irreconcilable differences." But several months later, Kenny went ahead and filed for divorce, also citing “irreconcilable differences."
