Ed Hartwell Files For Divorce From Keshia Knight-Pulliam, Wants Paternity Test

Keshia Knight-Pulliam, Ed Hartwell

Not so good news in the love department. Former NFL linebacker Ed Hartwell wants out from his marriage to actress Keshia Knight-Pulliam and filed divorce papers in a Georgia courthouse this morning, according to TheYBF. The decision to split comes less than eight months after he and wife Keshia Knight Pulliam’s surprise New Year’s Eve wedding. The site reports:

We’ve learned that former NFL linebacker Ed Hartwell filed divorce papers in a Fulton County, Georgia courthouse this morning. He filed the divorce complaint under Edgerton Hartwell II and cited irreconcilable differences. The decision to split comes less than eight months after his and wife Keshia Knight Pulliam’s surprise New Year’s Eve wedding. We’re told Keshia is not yet aware that he has filed for divorce.

She also has no idea Ed simply wants out of the marriage and to remain single. The two having a few marital issues did not come as much of a surprise to those who are VERY close to the couple. Sources tell us they noticed constant bickering going on. We’re told an all out divorce, though, was unexpected. They have done a good job not to comment publicly on any problems. At least one of the issues stems from Ed feeling like Keshia acts in a “spoiled” way, something he knew before he married her after four months of dating. Apparently, he has a history of acting impulsively, i.e. that surprise wedding after just a few months of dating. They did not spend his birthday together on May 7th. Keshia recently revealed she’s pregnant with her and Ed’s first child, and it’s a girl. She is due January 2017.Interestingly, Ed tells TheYBF.com via his rep, “Right now, the only thing I want is a paternity test for the baby.”

Keshia has yet to comment. [TheYBF]
