Tracy Morgan And Wife Megan Wollover Are Filing For Divorce After Nearly 5 Years of Marriage
Another Hollywood couple is calling it quits. According to an exclusive report by PEOPLE Magazine, Tracy Morgan and Megan Wollover have decided to separate after nearly 5 years of marriage.
In a statement released this Wednesday through his spokesperson, Morgan says: “Sadly, after nearly five years of marriage, Megan and I are filing for divorce.” Although he didn’t share the reason for their split, he did add that “this is a challenging time for all involved, so I ask that you please respect our privacy.”
The news comes as a shock to fans since they appeared to be going strong. As PEOPLE noted, just last June, on the five-year anniversary of Morgan’s 2014 tragic accident that left him fighting for his life and took the life of his friend, James McNair — Morgan reflected on the tragedy and thanked children and his wife for helping him get “back on my feet.”
“There isn’t a day that goes by that I don’t miss my friend Jimmy Mac, who sadly lost his life that night. I love you, Jimmy. I thank GOD for my family,” he wrote on Twitter. “I am eternally grateful for the love and support they give me. My wife, daughter, sons, and friends are what got me back on my feet. I live every day trying to do right by them and the most of this second chance.”
Not too long ago, Morgan also spoke with PEOPLE about how he and his family has been dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic. He told the outlet:
“We’re taking this time to get closer — loving more and being patient with each other,” the Last O.G.star told PEOPLE in May of being hunkered down in their suburban New Jersey home. “My life is always so busy, so now I get time to just be with my family.”
Morgan, 51 and Wollover, 33, share one daughter: 7-year-old Maven Sonae. He is also a father to Gitrid, 34, Malcom, 32, and Tracy Jr., 28, whom he shares with ex-wife Sabina Morgan, PEOPLE notes.
