LOS ANGELES — The tumultuous marriage between 90 Day Fiancé stars Shekinah Garner and Sarper Güven has officially reached its legal end. Just days after publicly announcing their separation, Shekinah took the final, decisive step on Monday by filing court documents to formally dissolve their union, citing irreconcilable differences.
According to court filings obtained by TMZ, the couple officially tied the knot on November 11, 2024, and listed their date of separation as September 22, 2026—the exact day Shekinah broke the news to fans on social media.
«This decision was not made lightly or without heartbreak,» Shekinah shared in an emotional statement. «I have reached a point of no return. I am choosing to let go with love and grieve what I believed this marriage could have been.»
The Breaking Point: Fake Recommitment, Stand-Up Comedy Jokes, and Infidelity Rumors
The couple’s fractures played out in dramatic fashion during the finale of 90 Day Fiancé: The Last Resort and the subsequent Tell-All special hosted by Ross Matthews. Tensions boiled over as Shekinah confronted Sarper for turning their marital struggles into punchlines:
- Pity over Love: During the recommitment ceremony, Shekinah accused her husband of only renewing his vows out of pity rather than genuine commitment, asking him to put his ego aside and acknowledge his betrayals.
- Humiliated in the Audience: Shekinah revealed the painful dynamic behind the scenes, admitting she would sit in the audience at Sarper’s comedy shows—crying just minutes prior—while he joked onstage about her and their relationship, making the marriage feel more like a «situationship.»
- Dating App Allegations: Despite Shekinah maintaining her fidelity and viewing herself as a committed wife, rumors surfaced that Sarper was actively using dating apps and spotted out with other women while choosing a «single lifestyle.»
Spousal Support and Legal Proceedings Ahead
Court documents confirm that the former couple shares no minor children. However, Shekinah is requesting spousal support from her estranged husband, while the division of their marital assets and debts will be determined during upcoming court hearings.
With Sarper openly expressing on the Tell-All that he sought «peace» while claiming his wife was the opposite, the legal battle ahead promises to reveal even more about what went wrong when the cameras stopped rolling.
