Martin Lawrence Files For Divorce From Shamika (Documents)

Martin Lawrence has filed for divorce from his wife since 2010 Shamika.  The couple got married on July 10, 2010 and it wasn’t a lucky day since they separated last week and decided on divorce the next day – April 25th.

The couple have two children – 11 year-old Iyanna and 9 year-old Amara Trinity – too bad for them since children never recover fully from divorce.  Always leaves a hole inside – they blame themselves on some level.  Of course these kids only had less than two years of their parents’ marriage to enjoy.
