Forest Whitaker Files For Divorce After 2 Decades Of Marriage

Forest Whitaker has filed for a divorce from his wife of 22 years Keisha Whitaker. Originally married in 1996, Whittaker reportedly filed the papers in Los Angeles on Thursday (Dec. 27), citing the reason being for irreconcilable differences.

The “Black Panther” actor met Keisha in 1994, on the set of the “Blown Away,” where they each played opposite love interests. Shortly following their movie, they began dating and were married two years later in Montego Bay, Jamaica.

The reason for the split has yet to be determined. The estranged lovers share two adult daughters, Sonnet Noel, 22, and True, 20. While Forest has a son named Ocean, 28, from a previous relationship and Keisha has a 27-year-old daughter named Autumn, also from a previous relationship.
