Kenya Moore Is 'Excited For Next Chapter' As She Finalizes Long Divorce

It took two difficult years to finalize her divorce, but Kenya Moore is officially a FREE woman!

When the reality TV star described her separation from Marc Daly as "the world's longest divorce," she was not joking because she believed the exes' lack of a prenup would delay the conclusion of their marriage.

Although she never liked having the dissolution of her relationship broadcasted on "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" series, the entertainer did not hold back when it came to announcing the finalization of her divorce and proudly shared the good news.

Moore's separation from Daly ended through private mediation, with the mother of one celebrating the good news with fans. She wasted no time dropping a message about her freedom, excitedly sharing her happiness and raving about the future.

The caramel-toned beauty thanked those who stood by her side through the challenging journey and also noted she would cherish this new chapter of her life with her adorable daughter, Brooklyn. Her statement read:

"After more than three years of litigation, I have finally been granted a divorce. I want to thank everyone who prayed for and uplifted me when I needed it the most. I'm excited for this next chapter in my life and being the best mom I can be for my daughter, Brooklyn."

Despite experiencing a tumultuous divorce, Moore's heart remains open to love. She is giving interested men the green light by concluding her statement: "As a hopeless romantic, I still believe my forever person exists and know I'll have my happily ever after ending after all."

Given the years-long drama, the TV personality's excitement to mingle after the finalization of her divorce was understandable. In January, she described the separation as "the world's longest divorce" during an emotional interview and blamed the standstill process on the duo's lack of a prenuptial agreement.

Moore considered the split ridiculously long because she moved to end her marriage in August 2021. She noted in her legal filing that the former spouses, who tied the knot in 2017, had separated since 2019. However, they could not easily part ways because of their properties and assets.

The Detroit native explained that, without a prenup in place, it was difficult to divide their properties, especially things they acquired during their marriage. Hence, the years-long divorce drama. As for why Moore moved to end her relationship with Daly, she blamed it on undisclosed issues.

When the exes first split in 2021, she said: "Due to recent and ongoing circumstances, I can no longer continue in the marriage." At the time, the 52-year-old also stressed that her daughter was her only concern amid the dissolution of her marriage.

The Miss USA 1993 titleholder returned to the dating pool months before the finalization of her divorce. In May, Moore opened up about not rushing her next relationship after her experience with a restaurant owner changed her perspective on love.

"I'm focusing on myself now, which includes being able to go out and date. Do I want to fall in love and have a serious relationship? I'm a little afraid of that," she declared in the interview. She also noted that even though she wanted "to be able to date," she did not "want to move too fast with anybody."

The mother-of-one further clarified, "So that's why I think it's nice to have someone you really like, but it's also nice to have options so you can just not feel there's a pressure for it to become something." Later in the interview, the former beauty pageant competitor expressed her hope about finding true love.

Moore noted the best relationship for her "will present itself when it's time;" nonetheless, she was not open to feeling "like so many people feel when they're single, and they're of a certain age," especially concerning the "pressure that society or other people put on you."

This was not the first time the entertainer had addressed her dating life. While speaking to Andy Cohen during the "RHOA" reunion, she revealed her standstill divorce had not affected her love life. In her words: "I'm definitely doing some group dating and have people pursuing me, but nothing serious yet."
