EPPS AND McCAIN'S RELATIONSHIP
Epps and McCain share two children, Moriah and Maddie, who they welcomed during their ten-year-marriage. The pair met in 2003 while filming "The Fighting Temptations" and tied the knot in July 2006.
Although McCain believed the ups and downs of their marriage were normal, she was surprised when Epps filed for divorce in 2016. She opened up about the divorce during an interview with Hollywood Unlocked. She added:
"Maybe God was saving me from something."
EPPS MOVES ON
Epps and McCain finalized their divorce in September 2017 and the pair moved on after agreeing to split assets and share joint custody of their two daughters.
While McCain hasn't remarried, it wasn't long before Epps found love again with television producer, Kyra Robinson. The "The Hangover" actor, who admitted that he prefers married life, walked down the aisle a second time in 2019.
EPPS HAS FIVE DAUGHTERS
Less than a year into their marriage, Epps and Robinson welcomed their first child, Indiana Rose Epps, giving the "All About The Benjamins" actor a total of five daughters.
The comedian also has two older daughters Makayla Epps and Bria Epps, from previous relationships. Despite yearning for a son, Epps is content being a father to only girls and is grateful for them.
