Trouble for the couple was spotted shortly after their April wedding, when Lark's mother, Patricia, filed for a restraining order against her new son-in-law in June, saying that she lived in constant fear that he might "cause her physical harm."

Despite this, Lark told ET exclusively in July that Jimmy, an admitted former gang member, was not taking advantage of her, saying, "We're selectively together for all the right reasons."

Furthermore, Patricia claimed that Lark was living with her because she was "psychologically, mentally, and emotionally fragile and is currently under a doctor's care." In 2012, Patricia told People that her daughter had been diagnosed as bipolar, which Lark has consistently denied, telling ET, "I've always been mentally healthy."

"We're the same as any other couple out there that's in love and trying to accomplish business together," Green told ET in July. "It's not a scam or a way to get money."
