Rapper Kevin Gates
Wife Files For Divorce
Published
Rapper Kevin Gates is getting served … because his wife just filed for divorce.
Dreka Gates, who used to manage Kevin, beelined it to court Wednesday and filed for divorce from Kevin after 9 years of marriage.
In the docs, obtained by TMZ, Dreka lists the date of separation as July 10 … and she’s going with the boilerplate “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the split.
Kevin and Dreka have two minor children — 12-year-old Islah and 11-year-old Khaza — and Dreka is seeking joint legal and physical custody of the kids.
Dreka is also seeking spousal support … and she checked the box to terminate the court’s ability to award spousal support to Kevin.
It’s unclear if there is a prenup.
Kevin and Dreka got hitched in October 2015 … so the divorce filing comes a few months shy of what would have been their 10th wedding anniversary.
We reached out to Kevin’s camp … and his rep says Kevin is “unfortunately” declining to speak on the matter at this time.
