A student who was seduced by his teacher when he was just 12 has filed for divorce after 20 years together.

Vili Fualaau, who is now 33, was the victim of Mary Kay, his teacher, back in 1996 when he was in sixth grade at a school in Seattle.

She was a married teacher with four children, but by the time Fualaau was 13, she was pregnant with his child.

Kay groomed him and was found guilty of second degree child rape. She gave birth to their first child after spending three months in prison. She promised to have no more contact with Fualaau and agreed to sign the sex offenders' register.

However, when she was released she met up with him again, had sex, and fell pregnant for the second time. It was then that she was sentenced to seven years in prison, and gave birth to their second child behind bars.

The Mirror reports that she was released from jail in 2004 and the pair married within months.

However, Fualaau, is now seeking a divorce after 12 years of marriage.

When they were celebrating 10 years of marriage a couple of years ago, they took part in an interview in a 20/20 American Scandal special as you can see in the clip below...

In the interview, Kay tells interviewer Barbara Walters about the first time they slept together. She said: "The incident was a late night that didn't stop with a kiss. I thought that it would, and it didn't."

The pair were only found out when Kay's husband found a love note from the young student.
