Former talk show host Rikki Lake made an attempt at online dating in the past but things didn’t go according to plan. She met someone from the United Kingdom and things were going so well for the two. That is until she learned that the guy was just searching for a way to get married so he could get a green card in the United States. Lake was devastated as she thought she had finally found a proper man in her life. Apparently he wasn’t all that much to look at but had a charming personality that she found irresistible. I guess they can’t all be success stories, even for semi-celebrities.
