Toni Braxton‘s divorce from Keri Lewis has been finalised after their split in 2009.
The ‘Un-Break My Heart‘
hitmaker split from musician Keri Lewis, with whom she has two sons,
after 12 years of marriage in 2009 and is now legally single.
A spokesperson for the Grammy-winner told People.com: ‘The
couple has had an amicable split and will still both be actively
involved in raising their two sons, 11-year-old Denim and 10-year-old
Diezel.’ The 45-year-old star is now ready for a fresh start as she also
recently settled all of her bankruptcy debts.
She filed for insolvency for the second
time in 2010, claiming she had debts as high as $50 million, and finally
resolved all of her financial issues after reaching a deal to pay her
trustee $150,000 earlier this month.
According to legal documents, Toni, who
first filed for bankruptcy in 1998, got into trouble again after she
struck a deal with the trustee to buy back some of the personal property
she lost by paying back $5,000 per month over 15 months but she failed
to make the final lump sum payment of $50,000.
The trustee and the singer finally came
to an agreement recently that will see her pay back that $50,000. Toni
also agreed to hand over $100,000 from the $754,000 she made from
performances overseas. A judge is expected to sign off on the settlement
later this month.
