What Led to the Divorce Filing?
According to TMZ, on April 15, 2026, new legal documents show that Glendon filed for divorce in Los Angeles County, marking a quiet but significant shift.
The filing outlines a timeline of a long-term relationship, stating that the couple married in August 2000.

However, they separated in June 2024, ending more than two decades together. That length of time makes the split especially notable.
They share two minor children, and while custody details were not specified, Glendon asked the court to establish visitation and address spousal support at a later stage. The filing also outlines the reason behind the move.

In the filing, he cited irreconcilable differences as the reason for the split.
The documents, according to the news outlet, also note no disputes over separate or community property, suggesting either a smoother process or private arrangements already in place.

Tina rose to fame in the late 1990s as one half of Mary Mary, the gospel duo she formed with her sister Erica, while Glendon built his career as a gospel drummer and singer, serving as the drummer on “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno” and leading the Soul Seekers.
It also casts a different light on a milestone from their past.

As reported by Us Weekly, the couple renewed their vows in 2015. At the time, Tina said of her late father, Pastor Eddie Atkins, “Even though my daddy is not here to give me away, he feels very much present. I just wish he was here so I could say, ‘We did it, we made it through!'”
She added, “I just wish he could’ve been there to see how it all turned out. He would be proud of the new Tina and proud of his new son.”
The divorce filing has since drawn even more attention to the situation.

On Facebook, reactions reflected a similar mix of support and reflection. One person shared, “She needs to take this as a lesson because in love we never lose we just learn.”
Another added, “My heart goes out to her because she tried her best to make that work,” while one commenter noted, “They have been fighting publicly for years. Sometimes there is no fixing and it’s time to let go and move on.”
As reactions continue to build, attention is also shifting to what Tina has been sharing publicly.
What Her Latest Post Reveals
In an Instagram post shared on April 6, Tina gave a glimpse into her personal life as she shared a series of photos from a gathering tied to Easter. Tina appeared happy and smiling as she shared candid moments with family and friends.

Her caption read, “About yesterday….#Resurrection All Day, Every Day. It’s a #blessing to be able to #worship with your #family. We miss you Lai. We love you Cee. And thank you for this amazing song Mr @EarlBynum. Psalms 117 is one of thee best song ever 🙌🏾🙏🏾🙌🏾.”
Glendon did not appear in any of the photos, a detail that has raised questions given the timing.
A Look Back at a Public Struggle
In a 2020 feature by Essence, Tina reflected on a difficult period in her marriage, when she discovered Glendon had been unfaithful multiple times.
She explained that the breakdown of their relationship played out publicly on her WE tv reality show “Mary Mary,” saying, “I found out who I really was when my marriage fell apart.”

She added, “It was really hard. That entire season was about my broken marriage. It was empowering for me to go through that in the public eye and then make it to the other side and fall in love again.”
She noted that both she and Glendon’s struggles were exposed during that time, leaving neither shielded from scrutiny. “There was a lot of prayer and counseling. But now I’m stronger and so is our marriage,” she said.

Years earlier, during a 2015 appearance on “The Steve Harvey Show,” Tina detailed how she first became aware of the situation, explaining that the information came from someone close to her who took time to confirm it.
She explained that a close friend became concerned after noticing her strong commitment to the marriage and decided to investigate quietly.

Tina told host Steve Harvey:
“She was like, ‘Listen, I hate to have to say this to you, but I followed the information that I found out for six months to make sure that it was true because I don’t want to break your heart, but don’t stop doing what you’re doing because you may need to take care of you and your kids.’ So they told me about two of them.”

She then approached Glendon directly, seeking clarity. She shared at the time:
“I talked to my husband two days before, I was in New York, I was like, ‘Listen, honey, I got reason to believe that something is going on. I’m coming to you because I love you, and I want to work through whatever this is, but I need you to tell me the truth.’ We stayed on the phone for an hour and eight minutes. He didn’t give me nothing.”
Clarity came only after she confronted another woman connected to her family.

“The person who it was, she used to work for me. That broke my heart; she was like a godmother to my children. She had access to my home, to come get my kids, all of that stuff,” Tina explained on the TV show.
She continued, “She was in the mix of our family. I called, and she didn’t answer her phone. When we got home on Super Bowl Sunday, I [told Teddy] ‘Come upstairs.’ I said ‘Are you having an affair with her?’ He said ‘No.’ I said ‘Call her,’ and so he did. I said, ‘Are you sleeping with my husband?’ And she hung up the phone, so I had my answer.”
That moment marked a turning point, one that would shape everything that followed.
From Scandal to Shared Purpose
According to their official ministry page, Tina and Glendon chose to work through the fallout of the infidelity rather than separate, leaning on faith as they rebuilt their relationship.
As their struggles played out on their WE tv reality show, they shared the impact on their marriage and family, connecting with viewers through their openness.
That process led them to focus on prayer, Bible study, and healing, which later extended beyond their personal lives.
They went on to create a ministry centered on marriage and restoration, expanding their work into music, speaking engagements, books, and events.
As the divorce case involving the Campbells moves forward, it marks a new chapter in a relationship that has unfolded both privately and publicly over the years, with many watching closely to see what comes next.
