Akon’s 29-Year Marriage Reportedly Hits Breaking Point as Wife Files for Divorce, Seeks €100 Million

It appears all is not well in the home of Akon, the globally celebrated American-Senegalese musician and entrepreneur, as reports suggest his longtime wife, Tomeka Thiam, has officially filed for divorce after nearly three decades of marriage.

According to reports from U.S. media outlets, Tomeka is seeking a €100 million settlement, citing irreconcilable differences, emotional neglect, and a lack of financial transparency as reasons for the split.

The couple, who have been together since the early days of Akon’s career, were once regarded as one of the most enduring couples in the entertainment industry. However, insiders claim that the relationship has suffered over time due to emotional distance and Akon’s multiple public relationships.

While the pair share several children, details surrounding custody arrangements remain undisclosed, further fueling speculation online.

Interestingly, reports have also surfaced suggesting that Akon’s personal bank account holds only $10,000, a figure that sharply contrasts with his lavish public image and high-profile projects, including the much-publicized “Akon City” in Senegal and various business ventures across Africa and the United States.

A source close to the situation hinted that some of Akon’s assets may be strategically protected, potentially complicating the divorce settlement process.

Fans around the world have since taken to social media to share their reactions, expressing shock that one of music’s most influential figures is facing such a deeply personal and financial upheaval.

As of now, Akon and Tomeka Thiam have not publicly commented on the ongoing divorce proceedings.
