In exclusive documents obtained by The Blast, Adriana submitted the divorce papers at the Stanley Mosk Courthouse, asking to end her marriage of 11 years and 1 month to Edouard.
The estranged couple became legally married on June 30, 2011, and their date of separation is listed as January 8, 2022, meaning they haven't lived together as husband and wife for more than six months.
Adriana and Edouard share two minor children, William Robert, 5, and Georges Daniel, 2. Both parties are seeking joint legal and physical custody of their sons. Details of child support haven't been disclosed yet.
The known vocal coach is divorcing her husband on grounds of irreconcilable differences and is asking to terminate the court's ability to award spousal support to Edouard.
Edouard also wants the same thing, asking to terminate the court's ability to award spousal support to Adriana. The lawsuit states that as regards separate property, "All such assets and debts if any, as are ascertained and discovered according to proof at the time of trial, or as disposed of pursuant to a written stipulation of the parties."
Adriana gave the courts permission to determine rights to community and quasi-community assets and debts as follows, "All such assets and debts, if any, as are ascertained and discovered according to proof at trial, or as disposed of pursuant to a written stipulation of the parties."
It hasn't been determined if either party would be responsible for paying attorney's fees and costs.
