From Tinder to Divorce: Mercedes 'MJ' Javid Splits from Husband after Seven Years
DRAMA ALERT! Shahs of Sunset Star Mercedes 'MJ' Javid Files for Divorce from Husband Tommy Feight After 7 Years of Marriage
It's a tumultuous time in the world of reality TV, and we've got all the juicy details for you! Mercedes "MJ" Javid, the 53-year-old star of Bravo's Shahs of Sunset, has filed for divorce from her husband of seven years, Tommy Feight. The news comes as a shock to fans who had been following their tumultuous relationship on the show.
According to TMZ (and later confirmed by our sources at thescholarlynote.com), MJ cited irreconcilable differences as the reason for the split in the divorce documents she filed in Los Angeles last Friday evening. But don't worry, we've got all the tea on what really went down!
Sources close to the couple claim that the marriage has been rocky since day one, with frequent fights and disagreements over everything from their living situation to their parenting styles. And it looks like MJ had finally had enough! In a shocking twist, she's asking for sole physical and legal custody of their six-year-old daughter, Shams, but is open to negotiating a visitation schedule for Tommy.
But what really got us thinking was the fact that this marriage made it into season 9 (yes, 9!) of Shahs of Sunset. And let's not forget all the drama they brought with them on that show! Remember when MJ's mom, Vida, slammed her makeup artist and told her daughter she looked Chinese? Or when Pedram fixed MJ's custom wedding gown just an hour before the big day?
The couple met in 2015 on Tinder (because who doesn't swipe right on love these days?) and got engaged in 2016. But it seems that all the ups and downs they experienced with family and life curveballs took a toll on their relationship.
In a confessional from Shahs of Sunset, MJ revealed that her dad's health issues had put a strain on their marriage. "We got engaged a year in and then we went through a lot of ups and downs with family and just a lot of life curveballs," she said at the time. "My dad took a turn for his health… and Tommy and I moved in together. All of these stressful things just made our bond even tighter."
But fast forward to today, and it seems that bond has finally snapped! A hearing in their divorce case has been scheduled for December 18.
We can't help but wonder: what really happened behind closed doors? Did the couple's differences become too much to handle? And will we see more drama unfold on social media as they navigate this new chapter in their lives?
Stay tuned, folks! This is one reality TV storyline that's far from over!
UPDATE: We've got more news for you! MJ's mom, Vida, was spotted at a recent event looking fierce in her Persian-style outfit. When asked about the divorce, she simply shrugged and said, "Vida will be Vida." Guess that says it all!
In related news, fans of Shahs of Sunset are still reeling from the drama-filled season finale, which featured MJ's mom getting into a heated argument with the makeup artist at her daughter's wedding. The tension was palpable as Vida slammed the makeup artist for not understanding Persian culture.
But don't worry, folks! We've got all the behind-the-scenes scoop and juicy gossip to keep you entertained until the next season of Shahs of Sunset premieres!
