Did the Long Island Medium get divorced?
Aside from the emotional connections between families and their deceased loved ones, Theresa and Larry's dynamic was one of the most compelling parts of the show.

That's why fans were shocked when they announced their separation in 2017.

Larry soon spoke out about why he and his wife were ending their marriage after 28 years, and he said that things became tense when she was focusing so much time on the show.
“I think a lot of the frustration has to do with us not spending the time together anymore," he had said on the show. "Along with that comes the lack of communication so it’s like losing your best friend. It’s hard.”

With his kids out of the Long Island home he shared with Theresa, Larry decided to move to California to start over somewhere new. He also began dating again, and his new girlfriend is named Connie Talley Stauddy. Larry remained fairly coy when talking about having a new woman in his life, but he did tell TMZ that he had “moved on.”
“I’m fortunate enough to say that I have met someone special," he said. "But I’ll just leave it [at that] for now.”
Connie and Larry apparently met when the Alabama native reached out to Theresa to get a reading. She and Larry connected online and they eventually began seeing each other.
