Nas’s Pregnant Wife Files For Divorce

By Denver Divorce Lawyer on August 4, 2009

The website accessshollywood.com reported in an article that Kelis, wife of hip-hop star Nas, has filed for divorce after being married four years. An associate of Kelis confirmed the news to Access Hollywood.

The associate said, “I can confirm that she has filed for divorce. We request the media to respect her privacy during this very difficult time.”

Kelis gained fame with her popular song “Milkshake”, and filed for divorce in Los Angeles Superior Court, citing “irreconcilable differences.”

Kelis is pregnant with their child, and is requesting spousal and child support.

In an interview with MTV News, Nas showed no signs of any marital problems.

Nas said, “She’s great man. She’s doing good. I’ve been thinking about kinda putting something online: ‘Choose his name.’ You get a couple of stacks for that. We take care of you for that. You win something real. But we’re thinking now.”

The couple was married in Atlanta in January 2005.

Many states view divorce differently and have different rules as to what may warrant a divorce. The State of Colorado follows a “no fault” divorce law, which means that either the husband or wife can request dissolution of marriage merely because the marriage is broken and they do not feel that the marriage can be repaired. The Colorado divorce attorneys at Kaplan Law can assist you in the division of personal items which were acquired during the marriage, as well as the determination of monthly spousal support, if warranted.
