‘Saved by the Bell’ Alum Lark Voorhies Marries a Wanted Man She Met on Facebook
Lark Voorhies, who played Lisa Turtle in the hit '90s series "Saved by the Bell," has married Jimmy Green, a man she met on Facebook who is wanted by the police for allegedly threatening to kill a man, TMZ reports.
Green is wanted by police in Tuscon, Arizona, after threatening to kill a store owner in 2012, shouting, "I'm going to break the store and kill [you]," according to TMZ.
Green was reportedly charged with making criminal threats and disorderly conduct, and then later skipped the court hearing.
According to TMZ, Voorhies and Green tied the knot in Las Vegas back in April and none of their families were in attendance.
Green told TMZ that he and Voorhies had plans to throw a bigger wedding ceremony next year for their friends and family, but TMZ says that Voorhies' mother does not approve of Green and his criminal past.
"Several members of Lark's inner circle tell us they're concerned she's at risk. They've told her to seek an annulment ... but Lark's not having it," writes a TMZ reporter.
Voorhies reps have told People that they are "looking into the matter" and "are obviously concerned about these allegations."
And though her reps and family are concerned for her, Voorhies reportedly believes that Green is a changed man and all will work out, TMZ reports.
Voorhies has not publicly spoken about Green's criminal past but he did choose to speak to E! about being wanted by the police.
"I'm not running from anyone," he told E! News on Saturday. "It was just a misdemeanor. They are blowing it out of proportion. Whatever happened, it is in my past. I am a changed man."
People reports that Voorhies' mother revealed in 2012 that the "Saved by the Bell" alum was diagnosed with bipolar disorder.
Voorhies has since denied that she's bipolar while her mother insists that she is.
"Overall, she's doing better but she still has her challenges," her mother told People.
