Kendu Isaacs has been hospitalized after a car accident last month, which was apparently caused by an alcohol spill. He is currently battling for spousal support from his wife, Mary J. Blige. He also has a daughter, Briana Latrise. According to sources, Isaacs is a celebrity manager and record producer.
Mary J. Blige accuses Kendu Isaacs of cheating on her
After a 13-year marriage, singer and actress Mary J. Blige filed for divorce in July of 2016. It was reported that Kendu Isaacs was guilty of cheating. He was reportedly married to a woman named Maurine, and they share two children.
Isaacs was also linked to other music artists before getting married. Before he met Blige, he was linked to Queen Latifah and Lauryn Hill. But he had a relationship with an up-and-coming artist named Starshell. The young girl is now signed to the Matriarch Entertainment label.
According to an insider, Isaacs was a verbal abuser. He allegedly controlled her hairstyle. Moreover, he complained about the way that she eats.
In the beginning, Kendu and Mary were in an ideal relationship. They spent a lot of time together. At one point, the two of them performed at Super Bowl LVI. However, they soon realized that they didn’t love each other.
Eventually, Kendu started making accusations about Mary J. Blige’s cooking habits. And the couple ended up in court. When the case was finally settled, it was in March 2018. A settlement was kept private.
He’s battling for spousal support
A judge has turned down Kendu Isaacs’ request for a spousal support increase. The singer and her ex have been in court over money for several months now.
Blige’s ex, Martin “Kendu” Isaacs, claims that he has a medical condition that is making him ill and unable to work. He is also battling a spousal support claim from his wife, and is looking for a bit of extra cash.
Isaacs has been asking the court to approve an increase in spousal support to $65,000. Mary J. Blige is currently paying Isaacs $30,000. This amount is a small fraction of what the singer is allegedly owes.
According to Isaacs, she has a net worth of around $20 million. She said she’s paying off about $12 million of debt. On top of that, he’s claiming that she’s lying about his finances. Apparently, she’s spent $420,000 on a new girlfriend in April 2017.
There’s another reason that Kendu Isaacs is attempting to get a spousal support increase. He’s been hospitalized because of the stress of divorce proceedings.

His daughter is Briana Latrise
Briana Latrise is the daughter of Kendu Isaacs, the ex-husband of R&B star Mary J. Blige. She is a mixed media artist, writer, photographer, entrepreneur, and blogger.
