After nearly three decades of partnership, it’s being reported that Akon‘s longtime wife, Tomeka Thiam, has decided to end their marriage. We’re sending them both love and light as they navigate this new chapter.
According to court documents, Tomeka filed for divorce just four days shy of what would have been their 29th wedding anniversary, citing irreconcilable differences. Can you believe they tied the knot back in September 1996? They also share a 17-year-old child.
Tomeka is requesting joint legal custody of their teen, but is seeking primary physical custody. She’s also seeking spousal support, while making it crystal clear that she doesn’t want Akon to receive any financial support from her. Power move!
Akon has always kept us guessing about his marital status and how many wives he actually has. Over the years, he’s hinted at having multiple partners, but never confirmed the specifics. Regardless, his marriage to Tomeka Thiam is officially coming to a close.
With almost 30 years of history, this divorce marks the end of a significant chapter for both of them. We wish them both strength, wisdom, and peace as they move forward. Wishing them both all the best.
