Sherri Shepherd, The View host and comedian, has counter-filed for divorce from her estranged husband Lamar Sally.

Sherri Shepherd Files For Divorce

Shepherd filed for divorce from Sally in New Jersey, citing irreconcilable differences, reported TMZ.

Sally filed for legal separation from Shepherd on May 2, unable to file for divorce for three months – at which time he will reach California’s residency requirement. In his filing, Sally moved to nullify their prenuptial agreement on the basis of fraud. If the prenup is upheld, as Shepherd wants according to her filing, Sally only stands to receive $60,000 from her.

Complicating the couple’s split is the child they’re due to welcome in July that is being carried by a surrogate. In his filing, Sally requests full custody of the child with only visitation for Shepherd. Shepherd, meanwhile, does not make any mention of custody in her own divorce filing.

Shepherd and Sally wed in August 2011. Shepherd had previously been married to Jeff Tarpley, whom she divorced in 2009 after discovering he’d been unfaithful. Together, Shepherd and Tarpley, have Jeffrey, 4.
