On Thursday, Andre Young aka “Dr. Dre”, 56, was pictured posing in front of a balloon decoration that spelt out “DIVORCED AF,” as his friend and fellow music executive Breyon Prescott teased that the music mogul’s legal separation from Nicole Young, 51, was “final.”
Breyon Prescott posted on Instagram with the caption-“Hey Well My Brother @drdre Just Told Me It’s Final !!!” Congrats πΎ Still Dre π πͺπΎπͺπΎπͺπΎ”
Reports claim that even though a divorce deal has been struck, it has yet to be signed. A representative for Dr Dre did not immediately respond to PEOPLE’s request for comment.
The news comes after a lengthy and heated back-and-forth between the couple since June 2020, when Nicole filed for legal separation. In January, she claimed that Dre once had “held a gun to her head.” As per The Daily Mail, Young stated in her filing that Andre threw her out of their home on April 2 after a ‘night of alcohol-induced, brutal rage, including screaming at her to “get the f**k out.” Additionally, she claims their marriage was ‘marked by abuse of every kind,’ and he allegedly punched her more than once.
Despite being accused several times of s*xual abuse, Dre has denied all of the allegations.
In July, he was ordered to pay her $3.5 million a year in spousal support.
In March, his attorney Laura Wasser filed a motion of bifurcation with the assertion that Young’s “false allegations of domestic violence” prove that the exes’ “marriage has irremediably broken down” and AndrΓ© “no longer desires to be married to [Nicole].”
Dre and Nicole had been married for 24 years and gave birth to son Truice, 24, and daughter Truly, 20.
Exactly a year after Nicole’s filing, Dre wasΒ declared legally single.
