Although Perrette and Shivers divorced in the early aughts, as of 2019, their tribulations continued. In April 2019, Shivers filed a personal injury lawsuit against Perrette, saying that the actress seeks to "stalk and defame him" and that she wrote "malicious, harassing and legally defamatory" emails to Shivers' constituents following Shivers' election to the Hollywood United Neighborhood Council (via The Blast).
However, there is strength in numbers, and per a 2015 Fox News report, Perrette, Buell, and Garber all support each other in their efforts to ensure Shivers both leaves them alone and doesn't have any more victims. "I'm the only thing standing between him and his next victim," Perrette said at the time. "The three of us fear for our lives 24 hours a day. We're always looking over both shoulders."
Shivers did eventually remarry, wedding Brazilian writer Mayra Dias Gomes in 2010 (via CheatSheet). The two split up in 2018. Despite two subsequent engagements, Perrette seemingly has decided she prefers being solo. In 2019, she wrote on Twitter, "I decided to be celibate and single for life. Best decision I ever made. Anyone else? I doubt it. No judgement. It is just healthy for me."
Whether or not Perrette decides to find love again, hopefully she has at least found peace.
