Repped by power attorney Laura Wasser, Buffington-Quaid is also seeking spousal support and legal fees. She first filed for divorce in March 2012 but withdrew her petition two months later. "Kimberly. . . wants out of the marriage," a source close to the couple tells TMZ. "He's not a good husband."
