According to TMZ, the 45-year-old Grammy award-winning singer has filed for divorce.

The court papers say that Scott cited irreconcilable differences as well as “inappropriate marital conduct that such further cohabitation would be unsafe and improper.”

Scott and Dobson wed to the surprise of many in June 2016. 

The gossip site reveals that the ESSENCE Fest alum and her estranged ex have been separted for quite some time and have been living apart in different homes since September 5. 

Before tying the knot, the couple signed a prenuptial agreement and the Philly native has asked that it be enforced, according to TMZ. 

This is Scott’s second marriage. She and Dobson did not have any children together during their union.
