It was all good just a month ago…or maybe it wasn’t. Gina& Pat Neely have filed for divorce less than one month after appearing on daytime television. Also, Randy Jackson’s wife Erika has filed for divorce after 18 years. What is going on? Find out inside…
We're not sure what's going on in Hollywood, but it definitely has married couples breaking up left and right.
“Down Home With The Neelys” Food Network stars Gina and Pat Neely have filed for divorce after 20 years of marriage, citing “irreconcilable differences.”
The Food Network stars released a statement a joint statement regarding their uncoupling saying:
Today we announce that we are ending our marriage of 20 years for irreconcilable differences. This was a tough decision, but we believe it is the best decision for us. As parents of two beautiful adult daughters that we love dearly, we will continue to be involved in each other’s lives as parents and friends. Together we have built a strong brand as The Neely’s. Moving forward our focus will be on our individual brands and we are optimistic about our respective futures. We ask for your prayers as we go through this transition and honor our request for privacy at this time.
It’s interesting to note they filed after their youngest daughter headed off to college at University of Tennessee just last month. Maybe they were just saving face for their kids? Their last public appearance together was on the "Queen Latifah Show" earlier this month.
The twosome just released a new cookbook and also have a BBQ restaurant in NYC, so we're wondering how they plan to move forward with their business considering this pending divorce. Sighs...
And in another new divorce...
Former “American Idol” judge Randy Jackson is headed down Splitsville Lane for the second time. His second wife/former ballet dancer Erika (Riker) Jackson has filed for divorce after 18 years or marriage, citing irreconcilable differences. They couple met on a music video shoot and got married in 1995.
Erika is requesting full physical custody and joint legal custody of their 17-year-old son Jordan. She also wants Randy to cough up spousal support and pay for all of her attorney’s fees.
Randy and Erika also have a 19-year-old daughter (Zoe) and he has another daughter from a previous relationship (Taylor).
Another one bites the dust.
We're just going to leave this here....
