‘View’ Host Sherri Shepherd Splits From Husband: Fighting for Full Custody of Unborn Child
Things are getting ugly between 'View' host Sherri Shepherd and her soon to be ex-husband Lamar Sally.
Just three years after their marriage, the estranged couple filed for legal separation and will soon be headed for divorce.
According to TMZ, Sally filed the legal separation papers on May 2 and has requested to gain full custody of their unborn child.
Last year, Shepherd and Sally had announced their plans of using a surrogate to carry their child (it's a boy!) that is expected to be born on July 28.
Once the baby is born, Sally wants full custody and will only allow Shepherd visitation rights.
But wait, there's more.
Sally also wants spousal support and wants the pre-nup invalidated based on fraud, TMZ reported.
So what has been Shepherd's response to all of the drama?
Well, she has yet to respond to the separation news, but according to sources from Radar Online, she is completely fed up with Lamar Sally and his lies.
"Their whole relationship was built on a fraud, and it's finally over. She's thrown him out of the house, and he's tried to speak with her, but nothing is happening," the Radar Online source revealed.
The source continued, "Lamar told Sherri that he was a big Hollywood player with scripts being sold. But she's tired of being married to a guy that doesn't have a job."
Sally's lack of a job has also affected his ability to step up as a father figure to Shepherd's son Jeffrey from her previous marriage to Jeff Tarpley. He's a deadbeat who is "lazy" and "sits around the house all day doing nothing," according to another Radar Online's source.
"Sherri has a full time nanny, who drives Jeffrey to school every day and picks him up in the afternoon. This has been going on for years, and Lamar doesn't even offer to help. It is unfortunate," the sources said.
As news of their separation continue to make headlines, it looks like there will be no making up for Shepherd and Sally.
Sally will file for divorce in three months once he meets California's six-month residency requirement needed for divorce.
