Orange is the New Black writer Lauren Morelli leaves husband for show star Samira Wiley
An Orange Is The New Black writer who realised she was gay on the set of the hit prison drama has filed for divorce after falling in love with one of the show's stars.
Lauren Morelli and her husband, Steve Basilone, have jointly filed to end their two-year marriage just three months after she opened up about her sexuality in an essay she wrote for Identities.Mic in May.
Morelli wrote: "I realised I was gay in fall 2012, one of my first days on the set. While Writing for Orange Is the New Black, I realised I am gay.
"Five months after my wedding, I flew to New York to start production on my first episode of Orange, and from that moment on my life fell into a parallel rhythm with (lead characters) Piper's story in a way that went from interesting to terrifying in a matter of months."
