The couple married in a small ceremony attended by family and friends. Tulsi was a martial arts practitioner at the time. Tulsi eventually joined the Hawaiian Army National Guard. After a year, she was sent to Iraq as a specialist with the Medical Company, serving as part of a support battalion and finishing her tour in 2005. This year-long tour, however, would be too demanding for their relationship, as Eduardo did not perform well during their absence as per biographypedia.org.
Eduardo and Tamayo divorced in 2006, stating “the stresses war places on military spouses and families” as the cause for their divorce, implying that her service in Iraq could have been one of the reasons.
