Kevin Gates and Dreka have officially hit the end of the road.
After months of swirling rumors, cheating allegations, and internet speculation, it’s now confirmed that Dreka Gates has filed for divorce from rapper Kevin Gates. According to court documents obtained on July 30, 2025, Dreka cited “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for ending their nine-year marriage.
The couple tied the knot back in October 2015, becoming one of hip-hop’s most talked-about pairs. They share two children together, 12-year-old Islah and 11-year-old Khaza. In the divorce filing, Dreka is asking for joint legal and physical custody of the kids, spousal support for herself, and, interestingly, requested that the court terminate any ability to grant support to Kevin. As of now, there’s been no word on whether a prenup exists between the two.
The filing lists their separation date as July 10, 2025, and Kevin Gates has declined to comment, with a rep simply saying he won’t be making any public statements at this time.
This divorce update also comes after that brief and bizarre chapter involving influencer Brittany Renner. Earlier this year, Renner revealed in a radio interview with REAL 92.3 LA that she and Kevin were married from April 6 to May 28. Yes, you read that right, just under two months. “I followed my heart, and that’s what more than most people can say,” Renner shared during the interview. She referred to Kevin as her husband and credited her embrace of Islam, which Gates also practices, for improving her life. “Islam has made my life better in every single category,” she added. “And like my husband says, the closer you get to God, the more you get.”
Meanwhile, Dreka’s had to do some damage control of her own. Back in May, she took to social media to squash rumors about having a fling with her female personal trainer. “I have NEVER had any type of sexual or romantic encounters with my personal trainer or any ‘hired help’ and will NEVER,” Dreka wrote online. “I am strictly [eggplant emoji] and I do not do plastic, I need the real thang!”
For a couple that once branded themselves as spiritual, open-minded, and deeply loyal, this turn of events has left fans confused and divided. Kevin and Dreka had previously presented their bond as unbreakable, even weathering cheating rumors in the past without ever heading to court. Now, the end of their relationship is playing out just like many others in the celebrity spotlight, full of twists, silence, and statements made via lawyers.
And though Kevin Gates hasn’t spoken up yet, Dreka’s decision to file speaks volumes. She’s not only asking for a clean break but also making moves to protect her finances and kids. Whether or not Gates plans to contest any part of the filing remains to be seen, but all signs point to a divorce that’s far more real than any of the rumors that have trailed them in recent years.
What’s next for the rapper and his soon-to-be ex-wife? That’s still unclear. For now, fans are watching closely to see if Gates eventually breaks his silence, and whether this divorce unfolds quietly or with more headline-grabbing revelations.
