New Kids On The Block Member Donnie Wahlberg And Wife Heading To Divorce Court

Donnie Wahlberg and his wife are divorcing. The wife of the New Kids On The Block star has filed for divorce after almost nine years of marriage.

While Kim Fey Wahlberg was citing "irreconcilable differences" on the paper filed in Los Angeles on August 13, Donnie was doing the same in Ventura County.

According to the court documents, Kim is seeking sole physical custody of their sons, Alexander Xavier (born 1993) and Elijah Hendrix (born 2001), as well as spousal support and payment of attorney's fees.

The duo, both 39 years old, have apparently been living separately since January. They were married in August 1999.

Donnie is currently plotting his comeback tour with bandmates Joey McIntyre, Danny Wood, Jordan and Jonathan Knight. They are releasing their first album in almost 15 years, The Block, on September 2.
