Is your marriage really over when the courts start spilling all the tea about your bank account? Because honey, that’s exactly what went down with Mary Mary’s Tina Campbell and her estranged hubby Glendon “Teddy” Campbell, and the internet is LIVING for the financial transparency.
In what can only be described as the most expensive reality check ever, court documents from Teddy’s divorce filing on April 13 revealed both his and Tina’s monthly income — and let’s just say, the numbers are raising eyebrows faster than a Kardashian’s forehead. While sources haven’t disclosed the exact figures (tragic, we know), the mere fact that these deets are now public record has everyone and their mama talking.
Teddy cited “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for pulling the plug on their marriage, which is fancy legal speak for “we’re done, sis.” But what really has people pressed is how the finances are being handled. When you’re a gospel singing icon like Tina, your coin flow is no joke, and apparently neither is keeping it private during a split.
The internet has been absolutely unhinged trying to do the math on what these income numbers mean for their divorce settlement. Fans on Twitter and Instagram have been speculating like they work for the IRS themselves, with some claiming the numbers prove Tina’s been the financial backbone all along, while others are defending Teddy’s contributions to their empire.
“If these numbers are accurate, somebody’s getting a MAJOR check,” one commenter wrote, while another added, “This is why you sign prenups, period.” Because apparently everyone’s a relationship expert when court docs drop.
What’s really shady is how quickly the public gets to know every financial detail of celebrity divorces. Like, yes we’re obsessed, but also — can these people get a little privacy? Apparently not when your business is literally on blast in court records.
The Mary Mary fam has been through plenty of drama over the years, but seeing Tina and Teddy’s marriage dissolve in such a public way has fans genuinely heartbroken. These two were supposed to be couple goals, and instead we’re getting an unwanted finance lesson.
What do you think? A) Tina deserves every penny because she’s the major earner B) Both should keep their finances private regardless of income differences
