Additionally, Germann is seeking to split the home they share 50/50. However, he reportedly stated all their other belongings are separate property that will be fully owned by either himself or Champlin.
The last time the actor appears to have posted about Champlin was back in 2020, during the COVID pandemic, where he praised her and other educators for working amid the challenges.
He gushed about Martha and her devotion to her job as an elementary school principal during the crisis, along with a photo of her working from home.
'Grateful to all on the front lines during this crisis, educators and teachers among them! My wife Martha is an Elementary School Principal — literally working around the clock from home, along with staff and amazing teachers, to create multiple virtual online classrooms. Teachers hold classes live throughout the day and are interacting visually & audibly with the entire class online, in real time! Educators & Teachers are HEROES!!!' he gushed.
Germann was previously married to Christine Mourad and they have a son together, 27-year-old actor Asa Germann.
The Houston-born actor played Richard Fish, co-owner of the Cage & Fish law firm, on the legal series Ally McBeal from 1997 to 2002.
In 1999, Germann and the Ally McBeal cast won the SAG Award for Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Comedy Series.
'I’ve heard that this is my breakout part,' he told Entertainment Weekly in 1998 of the role.
While the publication noted the series was considered a 'chick show', Germann noted it wouldn't be described a 'guy's show' if the cast was dominated by men and had a male lead.
