Wife of Donald Trump Jnr., Vanessa, has filed to divorce him after 12 years of marriage, E!News broke the news.
According to E!News reports, Vanessa filed in a Manhattan court on Thursday and also filed for an uncontested proceeding, which indicates a custody battle will not take place.
“After 12 years of marriage, we have decided to go our separate ways. We will always have tremendous respect for each other and our families. We have five beautiful children together and they remain our top priority. We ask for your privacy during this time.”
Donald and Vanessa share five children together, Kai, 10, Donald III, 9, Tristan, 6, Spencer, 5, and Chloe, 3.
While no reason has been given for the split, there have been reports that indicate that things have been strained for a while and they only got worse after Trump took the White House which meant Donald Jnr had to travel a lot.
There was also the issue with the white powder which was contained in a letter opened by Mrs. Trump. While the powder was harmless, Vanessa Trump was hospitalised as a preventive measure, along with her mother, who was there when she opened the envelope.
