Chris Rock & Wife Malaak Divorcing After 19 Years Together

Another longterm Hollywood marriage bites the dust! After nearly two decades of marriage, Chris Rock and wife Malaak announced they are divorcing.

"Chris Rock has filed for divorce from his wife, Malaak," his attorney Robert S. Cohen said in a statement to People on Sunday. "This is a personal matter and Chris requests privacy as he and Malaak work through this process and focus on their family."

Malaak also acknowledged the split in a statement to the magazine.

"After much contemplation and 19 years of marriage, Chris and I have decided to go our separate ways," the philanthropist and founder of the nonprofit styleWorks said. "Being fortunate enough to lead a life of service by working with those most vulnerable makes me well aware of life's blessings, even when faced with difficulties.

"While recognizing that this is a significant change, my children remain at the center of my life and their well-being is my top priority. It is in this spirit that I sincerely ask that their privacy and the privacy of our family be respected during this transition in our lives."

The actor, 49, and Malaak, 45, exchanged vows in 1996. The couple has been residing in New Jersey, where they are raising their two daughters, Lola Simone, 12, and Zahra Savannah, 10.

Chris said it best...

If you have 100 Million and you have to give up 50 Million, you still have 50 Million. But if you have 30 Thousand and you have to give up 15 Thousand, somebody has to die!

I would wish them luck, but I know they both will land on their feet. I selfishly hopes this spawns a new stand-up special though.

Have always liked her look, no doubt. Good-looking MILF.

Yeah I could see it now, she looks boring as fuck, type of chick you pull ya dick out on randomly she starts acting all funny and too good, yea do ya thing Chris.

 

[dHustla]

Boule lineage, huh?

What's "Boule"?

 

[Solomon]

Have always liked her look, no doubt. Good-looking MILF.

You know the photographer was like, "Sure Gabourey, go ahead and get in the picture! Just stand here on the end so that I can cut you out later."

 

[Mr. Met]

Damn, niggas are killing his wife.

 

[Louis Koo]

 

[MonkeyBizness]

But this now explains why we're seeing so much of him now too.

Promoting his flick.
Staying away from his wife.
Being on the road with Rosario.

Don't blame him one bit.

 

[GAMETHEORY]

any pics of the wife when she was preggs??

 

[durham]

to be almost 50 his wife (well soon to be ex wife) is fine as FUCK

sad to see happy families broken up, America and its divorce rate

 

[BLACKLOOP]

any pics of the wife when she was preggs??

Yo what's wrong with you lol

 

[Lucky7s]

Maybe its just me but I don't find his wife that attractive facially...she has that horse face nose shit going on.

He could have done better...just read elsewhere the prenup is null and void because they've been married too long.

And what is this about that adopted kid actually being his biological daughter?

No mentions of the third kid in any custody battle press spins.

 

[phatkitty]

I'm shocked it took this long

The gossip sites been buzzin about their loveless marriage for years

Now Chris can do all the cooning his heart desires out in the open. Don't know why he hid it in the first place. Nigga knows good and damn well he doesn't even like bw

She should have filed for divorce after that dumb hair movie he made

Why this crackkker posting naked pics of a non black chick in a thread about a black couple breaking up? Rotflmao Can't stand his simple divisive ass

Please tell me you're kidding right? Please explain this "cooning" you speak of...

 

[Moore]

She getting half plus the house....sorry Chris but it is what it is.

 

[Louis Koo]

Please tell me you're kidding right? Please explain this "cooning" you speak of...

let a hater hate

Agreed.

She obviously ain't ugly...

...but I don't really care for her face like that.

She getting half plus the house....sorry Chris but it is what it is.

But he gets freedom and peace of mind....fair trade.

 

[SKATTA]

Agreed.

She obviously ain't ugly...

...but I don't really care for her face like that.

On the flip side i really dont get the fascination with rosario on here.

chick look kinda flat and avg to me.

 

[Lucky7s]

Agreed.

She obviously ain't ugly...

...but I don't really care for her face like that.

No she ain't ugly but an average looking woman next to a super ugly nigga that can play crackheads takes a broad up a couple of notches. Catch her by herself in the grocery store and you wouldn't really pay her much mind.

On the flip side i really dont get the fascination with rosario on here.

chick look kinda flat and avg to me.

Tits and face make up for lack of hips and ass...torso square as fuck.

 

[Silencer]

sad to see happy families broken up, America and its divorce rate

Well obviously they weren't a happy family...

 

[BigATLslim]

Just sad to hear when it has been that long, however, we do not know the "happy factor" for the entire union.

Either way, I wish both them peace with the decision.

I had a feeling he was a cheater though. He fits the type.

WTGGT, you are smarter than this. That's much to broad of an accusation. That feeling can be about A LOT, if not the majority, of men especially when you speak of fame, financial means, or both.

Boule lineage, huh?

This shit comes out after he speaks about the racism in Hollywwod? What a coincidence.

Hadn't gotten quite to that angle yet, but there could be something there.

From what I understand, though, this sh!t was brewing for a while.

Chris said it best...

If you have 100 Million and you have to give up 50 Million, you still have 50 Million. But if you have 30 Thousand and you have to give up 15 Thousand, somebody has to die!

[sammyjax]

No sweetheart, don't kill the man...

Please tell me you're kidding right? Please explain this "cooning" you speak of...

never seen this before

 

[massdagod]

Rosario looks like shes hitting the wall already, EARLY..

Shes like 25% Latina and 75% black but her 25% is kicking in heavy...

Shes only 35 and most black good looking black women start to look like that at 45.


Always loved Rosario, But I dont think shes an upgrade over his Wife.. 10 years ago HELL Yeah. No? not so much, if at all.


As of right now, His wife >>> Rosario

IMO

 

[militantmidget]

Chris bout to get taken to the cleaners by his wife. His kids are young too?!

Dude gonna have to do shows in Vegas just to afford his alimony and child support.

 

[max-dawg]

I'm sorry we're reading this. I just hate to see marriages fail.

with a divorce rate greater than 50 percent, divorce is the norm.

What's the point of divorcing after being together for almost 20 years.

Lol... you don't have a family? When will and Jada divorce will your family disband?

 

[Crown&Coke]

If he wasn't happy then theres nothing wrong with him leaving. Why stay miserable for 20 years...they can both be moving on and being happy. ​

Once Will and Jada divorce, there will be no hope for black families.
