Khadijah Haqq and Bobby McCray are blowing the final whistle on their marriage.
Just one year after the Dash Dolls alum and the former NFL pro announced they were separating after 13 years of marriage, Bobby has officially filed for divorce.
The 43-year-old cited irreconcilable differences in his Aug. 16 filing, according to documents obtained by People. The couple are looking to share legal and physical custody of their children—Christian, 13, Celine, 11, and Kapri, 3, as well as Bobby's son Bobby McCray III, 20, from a previous relationship—while the Super Bowl champ has also requested spousal support from Khadijah.
E! News has reached out to reps for Khadijah and Bobby for comment, but has not heard back at this time.
Bobby listed their date of separation as July 7, 2023, per the docs, just a little more than a month before Khadijah originally shared the news.
"Now more than ever I have been relying on prayer," the 41-year-old wrote in August 2023 on Instagram. "Family is so important to me. Unfortunately, life has brought me to tremendous transition."
She continued, "After 13 years of marriage, 16 years together and 4 incredible children, I have come to the intensely difficult conclusion that while Bobby & I have a great deal of love for one other, it's best we move forward separately."
Adding that they "did not come to this decision lightly," Khadijah explained that the duo had chosen to keep many aspects of their "relationship private for the benefit of our family."
"I share this not because I believe it's newsworthy," she continued. "But so that we go about our lives with honesty and to begin the journey of co-parenting. I'm so grateful for my incredible support system!"
Khadijah—who's appeared alongside BFF Khloe Kardashian and twin sister Malika Haqq on The Kardashians and Keeping Up With the Kardashians over the years—has not yet responded to the divorce petition, according to People.
And while she has not recently mentioned the divorce proceedings on her own social media, she has taken time to focus on herself, sharing a photo on Instagram sporting a white bra and skirt set with a matching white jacket Aug. 15 and writing, "The come back is greater than the set back."

And you will make your dreams come true. You don't need me, but I'm so thankful you call on me to be there. You did it first #1 and I'll never forget it. You set the tone. Welcome to the real world handsome, the rest of your life is ahead of you."
