KEISHA NASH AND FOREST WHITAKER

The pair enjoyed 22 years of marital bliss before calling it quits in 2018. It was revealed that Whitaker was the one that filed the divorce and stated that it was due to irreconcilable differences.

Their separation came as a shock to most people who knew them as they were always supportive of one another. Although Nash asked for spousal support following the divorce, Whitaker’s documents asked the judge to deny the request.

Also, Whitaker asked that each person paid for their attorney fees and that their properties and estates be divided at a later date determined by both parties.

As of now, the standing on the divorce is not certain, but according to sources close to them, they are trying to be as amicable as possible with the separation. Since there was no prenup and the kids are older, there is no need for spousal support.
