American-Senegalese music star Akon has reportedly found himself in a legal tussle as his longtime wife, Tomeka Thiam, files for divorce after nearly three decades of marriage.
According to reports, Tomeka is seeking €100 million in compensation, citing years of irreconcilable differences, emotional neglect, and lack of transparency regarding Akon’s finances.
The couple, who had been together since the early stages of Akon’s career, were once celebrated as one of entertainment’s most stable partnerships. However, insiders revealed that their marriage had been on the rocks for years, worsened by the singer’s multiple public relationships.
Though they share children, custody details have not been made public.
Court Reportedly Finds Only $10,000 in Akon’s Account
In a surprising turn of events, the court overseeing the divorce allegedly found just $10,000 in Akon’s personal account an amount that has stunned fans given his global reputation for wealth and philanthropy.
Sources close to the case claimed that most of Akon’s assets might be hidden or managed elsewhere, possibly through family accounts.
“The court couldn’t trace the bulk of his assets directly to him,” one insider said, hinting that the singer may be shielding his wealth ahead of the divorce settlement.
So far, Akon has not commented on the reports, and his legal representatives have yet to release any official statement clarifying the situation.
Fans React Online
The revelation about Akon’s alleged $10,000 balance has triggered a wave of reactions across social media platforms. While some users defended the singer arguing that the rich often have complex financial setups others expressed skepticism about the true state of his fortune.
Neither Akon nor Tomeka has publicly addressed the ongoing divorce or the financial allegations surrounding it.
