Janet Jackson And Wissam Al Mana’s Divorce Over Parenting Dispute

After a couple of months of “leaving it in God’s hands”, Janet Jackson and Wissam Al Mana have finally gotten their divorce proceedings started according to E!Online.

The estranged couple appeared in a Royal Courts of Justice in London on Thursday morning to meet with Justice Anna Pauffley. Eyewitnesses say that Janet left the courthouse with her team and they looked upbeat and “in great spirits”. Meanwhile, Wissam and his team left the building looking “somber”.

Wonder if that mood is related to the rumored $500 million that Jackson is looking to remove from Wissam’s pockets. Losing that kind of gwap will definitely sour the mood to say the least.

A source has told E! that Janet has been very stressed out since the split and that differences in how to raise their son Eissa Al Mana was the main reason for the divorce.

We’re not sure if Wissam is a devout follower of any particular religion, but it’s definitely fair to wonder if that played a part in the dispute over how to parent their son.
