Akon's 29-Year Marriage Ends in Divorce
Akon's wife, Tomeka Thiam, has filed for divorce after 29 years of marriage, seeking €100m in compensation.
The court found only $10,000 in Akon's account. Tomeka cites irreconcilable differences, emotional neglect, and lack of transparency over Akon's finances as reasons for the divorce.
The couple, together since the early days of Akon's music career, was once considered one of the entertainment industry's most enduring unions.

Tomeka had been contemplating separation for a while.
