Kevin Gates' wife files for divorce

Rapper Kevin Gates and his wife Dreka are calling time on their nine years of marriage.

TMZ reports that Dreka filed the divorce papers on Wednesday, citing irreconcilable differences.

According to the docs, Dreka listed the date of separation as 10 July, and is asking for joint physical and legal custody of their children Islah, 12, and Khaz, 11.

She checked the box for spousal support, and asked that no spousal support be given to Gates.

It is unknown if a prenup is in place.

The divorce filing comes just months before what would have been the former couple's 10-year wedding anniversary.

The two attended their last public outing in 2023 at a BET Awards event.

Gates and Dreka have been together since around 2003, and married in October 2015.

While the pair seemed united, with Dreka involved in managing her husband's career, rumours of a separation and infidelity were doing the rounds in 2022, according to HotNewHipHop.com.

Fuel was added to the fire when a video surfaced of Gates and influencer Brittany Renner at dinner, with Gates casually referring to Renner as his "wife".

Gates' debut studio album, Islah, released in January 2016, peaked at number two on the US Billboard 200 chart.
