Chance the Rapper’s wife, Kirsten Corley, has officially filed for divorce, eight months after the couple announced they intended to end their five-year marriage.
The former model and basketball player filed for divorce Friday, according to online records viewed by TMZ. It’s unclear at this time how much Corley is seeking in spousal or child support.
Corley and the three-time Grammy winner, both 31, met as children and got engaged on the Fourth of July in 2018. They wed the following March in a star-studded ceremony attended by Kim Kardashian and ex-husband Kanye West, as well as comedian Dave Chappelle.
In April of this year, the couple shared a joint statement announcing they’d been through “a period of separation” and “arrived at the decision to part ways.”
“We came to this decision amicably and with gratitude for the time we spent together,” they wrote on their Instagram Stories at the time. “We kindly ask for privacy and respect as we navigate this transition.”
Together, Chance and Corley share daughters Kensli, 9, and Marli, 5. The “Voice” judge postponed his tour following Marli’s birth, not wanting to “make that mistake” of missing early milestones in her life, as he had in Kensli’s.
In their separation announcement, Chance and Corley shared that they intended to raise their little girls together.
Chance and Corley first met at one of his mom’s office parties when they were just 9 years old, at which point he later shared, “I knew I was gonna marry that girl.”
