"Our greatest desire now is to continue having a healthy family dynamic and a relationship centered on peace and friendship to continue the joint upbringing of our children, preserving the respect and love we have for each other,” the couple added.
Soon after the statement was released, Ricky filed a divorce petition in Los Angeles Superior Court.
In his petition, the entertainer cited “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the divorce.
He demanded joint custody of their children. In addition, he revealed the couple signed a prenup before getting hitched. Ricky asked for the prenup to be enforced in the deal.
Jwan did not fight Ricky’s request nor did he cause any sort of drama in the proceedings.
In his original filing, Martin noted that “Petitioner has yet to determine the full nature and extent of the separate property assets and obligations of each party per the terms of their Premarital Agreement. Petitioner reserves the right to amend this Petition or to conform the Petition to proof.”
Martin did agree to pay Jwan’s legal bills in the case.
