Hip-hop fans were hit with unexpected news this week as Dreka Gates, wife of rap superstar Kevin Gates, has officially filed for divorce after nearly a decade of marriage. The couple, once regarded as one of the most enduring pairs in the music industry, is now heading for a split just months shy of their 10th wedding anniversary.

Court documents filed on Wednesday reveal that Dreka cited “irreconcilable differences” as the basis for the divorce, marking July 10 as the date of their official separation. The filing signals the end of a relationship that has long been in the public eye, not just because of Kevin’s chart-topping hits and controversial persona, but also because Dreka has been a steady force in his career, even managing him during some of his most successful years.

The couple had two children, 12-year-old Islah and 11-year-old Khaza, and Dreka is requesting joint legal and physical custody. She is also seeking spousal support while asking the court to deny any such support to Kevin, a move that could lead to a financial tug-of-war if no prenuptial agreement exists. As of now, it remains unclear whether the couple had any legal arrangement in place before tying the knot in October 2015.

Kevin Gates’ team released a brief statement acknowledging the situation but declined to provide further details, saying the rapper is “unfortunately not able to comment” at this time.

Fans across social media platforms have been reacting to the news with a mix of shock and support, especially given the couple’s high-profile public image that often projected unity and resilience despite past rumors of infidelity and relationship strain.

This divorce filing comes at a time when Kevin Gates is still actively touring and dropping music, which means the unfolding legal drama could spill into his public life and career. With Dreka now seeking both custody and financial support, this high-stakes breakup is shaping up to be one of hip-hop’s most talked-about splits in recent years.

As the legal proceedings begin, the public will be watching closely to see how the divorce plays out, both in court and in the court of public opinion.
