'DWTS'star Cheryl Burke isn't wasting any time when it comes to legally ending her marriage, after agreeing with Matthew Lawrence to have an "uncontested" divorce.

According to legal documents, obtained by The Blast, Cheryl Burke and child star Matthew Lawrence have both agreed to swiftly end their legal marriage and filed with the court that they have already signed a written agreement amongst themselves. It should be noted, that this is VERY uncommon amongst celebrity divorces, mainly because there is normally a lot to split up in a high-profile divorce.

Obviously, a couple of this type has a prenuptial agreement -- considering they both came into the marriage with their own money.

This is one of the fastest divorces we have seen in a very long time, considering the former couple filed for divorce in February of 2022.
