Mary J Blige is filing for divorce and I have to say I am a little bit sad even without knowing the details. Mary cited ‘irreconcilable differences’ on her paperwork and she was married to her husband/manager Martin ‘Kendu’ Isaacs for 12 years.
via TMZ:
Blige lists the date of separation as “to be determined” — unclear why.
Blige cited irreconcilable differences as the reason for the split. They couple has no children together.
There is one interesting note … Blige is asking the judge to block Isaacs’ ability to get spousal support. The document does not say if there is a prenup.
We reached out to Blige and Isaacs — so far, no word back.
Unclear what went wrong — but back in 2014, Blige talked about the challenges of dating her manager during an interview with Stella Magazine.
“He always has my back — he’s going to fight to the death for Mary J Blige. The downside is that there’s no separation — it’s on all the time.”
“When you don’t feel like answering to your manager, he’s still your husband. If one of you doesn’t want to talk about something right now, you have to respect that. And you have to respect each other’s space.” If you’re currently undergoing, or about to undergo a difficult divorce, you’ll want to get in touch with a firm that practices family law, like a divorce attorney Atlanta based.
