Hip-hop mogul Russell Simmons has filed a response to his estranged wife Kimora Lee's divorce petition. Simmons filed the papers in a Los Angeles court Tuesday.

According to People.com, Simmon's legal papers cite irreconcilable differences. He is also seeking joint physical and legal custody of his and Lee's daughters, Ming, 8, and Aoki, 5.

The couple married in 1998, however, Lee, 33, filed for divorce in March, and requested that Simmons, 50, get "reasonable child visitation ... to be accompanied at all times by the children's nanny and security personnel."

Both parties are asking the court to deny spousal support for the other.

At the time of their initial separation two years ago,, Simmons released a statement saying, "Kimora and I will remain committed parents and caring friends with great love and admiration for each other."

Lee is now dating Djimon Hounsou.
