Judge Greg Mathis Opens Up About Marriage Almost Ending After 39 Years, Compares Wife Filing For Divorce To His Mother’s Passing

#JudgeGregMathis was serious about getting his wife back.

The legal professional and TV personality will appear on Wednesday’s (Oct. 8) episode of The Tamron Hall Show alongside his wife, #LindaMathis, and their adult children, marking the couple’s first interview since reconciling. As reported, Linda surprised many by filing for divorce last August after 39 years of marriage. However, the couple ultimately found a way to repair their relationship.

According to PEOPLE, #JudgeMathis didn’t hold back when discussing his fight to save his marriage. He shared, “I felt like I did when I lost my mother. That’s the feeling I had. And I’d do anything to get my mother back. So I did anything to get my wife back.”

Linda explained why she initially wanted to end things: “I supported him always. And, at that time, I felt I needed to just take care of me.” Since reconnecting, she said they’ve “learned each other again.” And added, “We [have] enjoyed our time doing that, each and every day, and it’s just been progressively, just great. Every day has been just wonderful.”
