Judge Greg Mathis and his wife Linda Mathis are headed for divorce court.
According to court documents obtained by E! News and Today, the wife to the reality TV judge filed for divorce Thursday. The pair, who live in Los Angeles and have been married 39 years, also starred with their family on the 2022 E! reality show "Mathis Family Matters" which brought fans behind-the-scenes of Judge Mathis life beyond the bench.
The two married in 1985 and have four adult children: Jade, 39, and Camara, 36, Greg Jr., 35, and Amir, 34.
In 2022, Judge Mathis' long-running show "Judge Mathis" was cancelled alongside other TV court show "The People’s Court,” hosted by Marilyn Milian.

The pair of then-syndicated Warner Bros. TV programs feature Mathis and Milian, respectively, as they preside over disagreeing parties with situations to be settled by binding arbitration in a courtroom set. Then, court was back in session for the popular TV personality last year.
Mathis, best known for his hosting gig on the long-running reality courtroom drama “Judge Mathis,” has been tapped to host the upcoming series “Mathis Court with Judge Mathis,” according to a press release from Allen Media Group.
“Judge Greg Mathis is an outstanding, charismatic and iconic television host, and we are extremely confident that our eighth and newest court series with Judge Mathis will be very successful for years to come as he joins our outstanding roster of talent,” Byron Allen, CEO of Allen Media Group, said in a statement.
Mathis, a former District Court judge in Michigan, first appeared in the pilot episode in 1998, according to IMDb. Twenty years later in 2018, the show earned a Daytime Emmy for outstanding court program.
Their E! reality show followed the highs and lows of marriage and family as Judge Mathis and Linda Mathis navigated their big family with kids and grandkids.
