Find out how much Kenya Duke is requesting from her soon-to-be ex-husband each month.

Gary Owen and Kenya Duke split in March after 18 years of marriage. Now, Duke is asking her soon-to-be ex -husband to pay $44,000 in spousal support.

TMZ also reports that Duke alleges their monthly income is between $200,000 and $400,000 and “never dipped below $100k, even during the pandemic.”

Additionally she claimed “it's not uncommon” for Owen to have $300,000 to $600,000 uncashed checks from his stand-up shows.

According to TMZ, Duke filed divorce documents on Friday (March 19) in Los Angeles County Supreme Court. There’s no clear indication of why the 46-year-old filed for divorce from Owen, 46. The couple has three adult children.
