Chance The Rapper's ex-wife Kirsten Corley has formally filed for divorce after five years of marriage.

According to a report TMZ published on Tuesday, December 17, Corley submitted the divorce paperwork last Friday. The details about the terms of their split are scarce at the moment since the documents are still not yet available. Chano and Kirsten first announced their separation in April, however, it looks like Kirsten filed the paperwork first. At the time, the former couple confirmed that they had been separated for two years before they made the announcement. They also told fans they planned to raise their daughters, Kensli and Marli, together.

"After a period of separation, the two of us have arrived at the decision to part ways," the former couple said in a statement. "We came to this decision amicably and with gratitude for the time we spent together. God has blessed us with two beautiful daughters who we will continue to raise together. We kindly ask for privacy and respect as we navigate this transition. Thank you."

Chance and Kirsten have known each other since they were kids but they officially began dating in 2013. The couple welcomed their first daughter Kensli in 2015. They separated for a brief time in 2016 before they got back together the following year. Chance and Kirsten were married and welcomed their newest daughter Marli into the world in 2019.
