While Kanye West might be having the #WestDayEver, things aren’t looking as peachy for Dr. Dre. TMZ reports his wife of 24 years, Nicole Young, has just filed for divorce. The outlet says Young filed the paperwork on Monday (June 29), citing “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the split.
The N.W.A legend married Young in 1996 and they have two adult children together — Truice and Truly. Sources close to the situation claim the couple didn’t have a prenup, which means Young could be entitled to a healthy chunk of the Hip Hop mogul’s estimated $800 million fortune. After all, Young is seeking spousal support as well. Young has hired celebrity attorney Samantha Spector to take on the case.
Young, a lawyer, was previously married to NBA player Sedale Threatt whom she wed in 1992. They were married for three years before deciding to go their separate ways. She and Dre met while she was still legally married to Threatt. According to Celebtattler, Young decided to leave Threatt after Dre penned a letter begging her to be with him instead.
““Hopefully you doing well and you realized you need to quit fucking with Sedale and come home to your doctor,” the letter allegedly begins. “I will take care of you baby girl.”

The news comes not long after Snoop Dogg photographed Dre in the studio with ‘Ye finishing up the sequel to Jesus Is King. While no release date has been confirmed, it seems the project is inching toward completion. Upon Ye’s return to Twitter last Friday (June 26), the gospel-loving rapper shared a photo apologizing for spilling orange juice on Dre’s carpet.
He wrote in the caption, “IM SORRY DOCTOR DRE I SPILT THESE THREE DROPS OF ORANGE JUICE MIXED WITH UUUUUUM WHILE WE WERE FINISHING OUR FIRST PROJECT,” a solid indicator the album could arrive before the end of the year.
Jesus Is King finally arrived last October after numerous delays. The 11-track album received mixed reviews from Kayne’s fans and critics alike. But despite some of its negative reviews, the project earned ‘Ye his ninth consecutive No. 1 Billboard 200 album, tying Eminem’s streak for the longest in the chart’s history.
All of Ye’s albums have entered the chart at No. 1 between 2005 and 2019. Kanye’s only project that failed to land in the coveted spot was his debut effort, 2004’s The College Dropout, which debuted at No. 2.
No more Dre day lol
Dre day also meant Nicole’s payday.
Jesus is my mexican gardener, he ain’t no king
Probably caught him slipping with another dude!
Probably Diddy
Take that… Take that…
Someone is going to be one rich woman. She getting some of that beats money lol
One less,one less. One less b***h I gotta worry about
Blueface incoming lol
SHE PROBABLY HEARD THE ALBUM AND THOUGHT IT WAS TIME TO MOVE ON.
After that snippet, I don’t blame her
Time for him to come out the closet
Suck it, Marshall
Exactly probably been sucking off Iovine for years anyway!!
It’s Ye’s fault lol
Ditto that lol. They prob got so locked into the studio he forgot he was married for a month.
Dre is One the best producers but definitely the Worst at contracts! How you marry a lawyer without a prenuptial in place. In 95 he had already gave up Millions at D.R. then went right into this situation smh. Only in America can a person say i don’t want to be in a relationship but i need your $$ still really??? If you don’t want him just leave. No bonus for leaving!!
The best artists and/or producers aren’t that business savvy. Dre think with his chest and his cock instead of his BIG head. And Aftermath was sprouting up too so he just wanted a bad tenderoni to match the come up. Oh well…they say that the way you get em is the same way you’ll lose em! Better holla at Jimmy and get a team better than OJ had…or it’s….MURDAAAHHH lol!
I can empathize with the Doctor! My wife left me, and she took over half of my entire estate, which consisted of a half-eaten tuna fish sandwich and 1 copy of Jazzmatazz 4 on cassette!
You mean husband
He’s a she now, so it’s complicated lmfao! Oh yeah, and keep an eye out for the new Gang Starr joint, produced and rapped by yours truly!
meant to reply to you before but i’m a lame
It is and always will be fuck Solar!
Dre love that butthole! Hahahahahaha Ice Cube was correct!
Money hungry bitches, they’ll never change
I still have my Sedale Threatt Hoops basketball card. Lol
” Wish I was up in that ass” HAHAHA. Straight pimpin
She said aint no fun If they homie cant get none….watch she go fuck with future. Damn Dre day stay someone elses pay day (Alonzo Williams, Jerry Heller, Eazy, Suge, Jimmy, etc)
She will take the half of the estimated fortune and she demands spousal support? What a bitch! But thankfully Dre knows a handful of gangstas, know what I mean lol
Wow it’s crazy how dudes just hate females now a days. This chick has been with this dude for 24 years, mind you those were some of times where he was beating chicks left and right. Hopefully that’s something he’s not currently doing but dudes are so quick to call her a bitch when they don’t know what led to the separation and when you don’t know what she’s going to ask for during the divorce process.
oh stfu… she worked 0 days in 24 years. now its his fault LOL
Smh spoken like a person who don’t and won’t have nothing. I don’t know his wife but she had to be holding dude down for 24 years. Remember when Kobe(rip) had those divorce rumors and Rick Ross tried to show he was on Kobe side saying you wasn’t with him shooting in the gym. Kobe was the first one to say stay in your lane. This ain’t a dudes side piece it’s his wife for years through the good and the bad. Does she deserve half no. But what woman has gotten half of a rich dudes money when they split…tell me one. Y’all dudes really be sounding ultra gay with this chick hate. It’s like the Boondocks you going keep talking about how you will ride for your homies and f#ck chicks and eventually it’s going to come out that it’s because your gay
half of $800 million is enough, she doesn’t need spousal support, she is a grown woman, with a professional education and is currently a lawyer. I think she’s fine, that spousal support is a dagger, Dre messed up somewhere.
Dre like forest gump, early days of the Burning Man festival is what they ran into in the desert
Guess he accidentally tripped and slipped into a Kardashian during those Jesus is King sessions
Bro if this is the reason Dre sold his product to Apple or idk what, I swear I’m gon explode. This is exactly the reason you shouldn’t trust bitc&es in life. MF is working for his whole life and then a “loyal” bit ch would come in and get all the royalties. Same sh*t with Jeff Bozo ffs FUC*K ‘EM.
Why is nobody mentioning that he is referencing Tupac on California love in FEB 95 he went to jail in NOV 94 but he didn’t get out of jail until OCT 95 ? Interesting to me so obviously death row tried to get him out earlier so what was the hold Up maybe pac signing the contract? Would be nice to hear Dre expand on that but it’ll never happen
Sorry dude that wasn’t meant for you
Fucking wit them white bitches
Still slaving for them whites
That letter though …. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
