Comedian/actor Martin Lawrence has lost his trophy wife.
According to People.com, Lawrence and his wife Shamicka have decided to end their marriage.
“Martin and Shamicka Lawrence have decided to divorce,” a rep for the Big Momma’s House star, 47, tells PEOPLE. “The couple has made the joint decision to part ways.”
Not surprisingly, the two were together for 15 years before they finally tied the knot in 2010.
I would say that Shamicka followed Kim Porter’s “Guide for Jump Offs and Gold Diggers” to a tee, but this is no time for jokes.
“Out of love and respect for one another we will continue to remain friends and raise our two beautiful daughters together,” the couple said in a joint statement released to PEOPLE by his rep.
As soon as insecure black men get a little paper and fame, they find themselves a gold digger/trophy wife to impress the other insecure black men in their circles. But marriages built on insecurity (and gold digging) never last long.
