Yesterday we announced that Kordell Stewart had filed for divorce from his wife of two-years Porsha Stewart.
Kordell's court documents (filed March 22nd) cited that the marriage was "irretrievably broken." The couple does not have a prenup, despite Kordell's NFL past but he is already contesting paying alimony to the Real Housewives of Atlanta star.
The documents declare: "[She’s] an able-bodied person, earning income and is capable of supporting herself." His filing also says there are no marital assets to divide.
Kordell's attorney released a statement saying he hopes "everyone understands" it was a “very difficult decision." "Kordell’s ongoing concern has been and remains his son’s best interest.” Kordell has a son from a previous relationship.

Kordell's papers also claim the two are currently separated which is interesting because on March 24th – two days AFTER Kontroll filed the papers – Porsha was tweeting things like this:
And perhaps there was a reason, because TMZ reveals that Porsha was completely "blindsided" by Kordell filing for divorce and she learned about it on the internet! Cold… icy, frozen cold!
Porsha's rep says she is "disappointed about her husband's recent filing for divorce." It seems Porsha decided not to file papers herself, despite the fact that they were having problems because she was committed to working things out and strengthening their marriage. Kordell apparently promised to work on the relationship with her!
"[Kordell] misled her and she found out about the filing in the media," Porsha's rep claims. "Mrs. Stewart hopes to resolve these personal issues privately with the support of her family, friends and strong faith."
In the meantime, Porsha's castmates are offering their support. Kenya Moore told TMZ that despite hating on Porsha all season she hopes the couple can rekindle things. Huh? What personality is this?
"It seems they just need to maybe iron some things out in their relationship. Maybe they could still make it work," Kenya says. “Even though @porshadstewart and I have had our differences, I would never want to see anyone in pain. I wish her well,” she added on twitter.
And NeNe Leakes, who was one of Kontroll's main opponents and recently made fun of alleged reports of his sexuality on twitter, is reaching out as well. “I am good judge of character! I will stand by & support my little sister @PorshaDStewart,” she tweeted.
Allegedly the show has a lot to do with their marital issues as Kordell wanted Porsha to quit to focus on family while she craved a career.
