It’s been rumored for years now that Mary and Kendu were having some serious problems in their marriage, and some of Mary’s fans felt like Kendu wasn’t a very good manager to the R&B singer.
In fact, Mary has made headlines plenty due to money problems.
So it may not be shocking to some that she has made the necessary steps to end the marriage.
TMZ writes:
Mary J. Blige just pulled the plug on her marriage to her husband/manager … filing for divorce to end her 12 year marriage, TMZ has learned.
Blige just filed docs seeking to end her union from Martin “Kendu” Isaacs — who she married back in 2003. 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.
It’s been a long time coming.
Exactly.
It really has.
She’s finally free. LOL.
Good. I feel like he was just using her anyway. And her career suffered when he started managing her.
Sad.
Mary has been through a lot. And with her career taking somewhat of a nosedive, I’m sure her marriage became stressful too. I’m rooting for her.
He was a terrible manager.
He ain’t sh-t for advising her to sing about crispy chicken from Burger King.
What?? Lol
Lol..dam
I remember her saying that on the Breakfast Club.
I guess she’s tired of him using her.
Their marriage and business relationship was always a disaster. But Mary wanted to prove to her fans that they were wrong about him when they really weren’t. I just hope Mary can revive her career and get herself back together financially after this.
This is why you can’t let your spouse manage you.
I wish she would have done this a long time ago.
