Iconic Hollywood director David Lynch was served divorce papers at his Los Angeles home just days after his wife, Emily, filed to end their 14-year marriage. The divorce documents obtained by RadarOnline.com showed that Emily had him served by someone who was not a registered California process server on December 5 at their multimillion-dollar house.
David and Emily were married for 14 years.
David is behind blockbusters like the 2001 movie Mulholland Drive and the 1986 film Blue Velvet. The 77-year-old also directed the famous '90s television series Twin Peaks, which has a huge cult following.
Emily filed for divorce earlier this month — and it doesn't seem to be an amicable split because she doesn't want him to have unsupervised time with their kid.
The director's wife revealed she was going after sole legal and physical custody of their 11-year-old daughter. Emily informed the court that she only wanted David to have visitation rights.
There are also clues that the exes could be gearing up for a money war.
She only wants him to have visitation of their 11-year-old daughter.

TMZ was the first to report on the pair's divorce.
