Tyrese is finally done with the legal drama that has been hanging over his head for years.
On Friday, he hopped on Instagram to share the news that his divorce from Samantha Gibson has officially been finalized.
Tyrese didn’t hold back on the details of what he called “one of the most emotionally draining seasons of my life,” revealing that the fight for his freedom cost him a staggering $2 million in lawyer fees. The singer has been very vocal throughout this entire process, but this latest update sounds like he is finally ready to put the “psychological warfare” behind him and move on to better things.
The financial hit wasn’t just limited to his bank account, according to the singer. Tyrese also alleged that his brand took a massive hit, claiming he “endured almost $50 million worth of public scrutiny, PR damage, and reputational attacks” because the entire world had a front row seat to his child support and divorce battles.
Despite the public back-and-forth and previous reports of him being held in contempt for unpaid fees, Tyrese told his followers that he managed to stay afloat.
“I’m walking proof that the cup still runneth over. [ the true bag bag stayed tucked tucked while lawyers was on the prowl FOH ],” he added, making it clear that his lifestyle isn’t changing anytime soon.
With the court papers signed and the legal fees accounted for, Tyrese is already planning his victory lap. He let his fans know that he is catching a flight to Turks and Caicos to celebrate both his birthday and the new year.
“First stop: Turks and Caicos Birthday and New Years 2026!” he wrote. He is calling for all the vibes for his December 30 birthday and a “LEGENDARY WHITE PARTY” for New Year’s Eve that he claims will be on a completely different level. It seems the “Sweet Lady” singer is looking to start 2026 with a clean slate and no more court dates on his calendar.
The feeling of relief was evident in his post, as he described himself as feeling “LIBERATED” now that the storm has passed. Tyrese has often shared his raw thoughts on the betrayal he felt during the split, but he ended this update with a message of survival and faith.
“The devil tried! THANK YOU JESUS!! I survived!!!” he shared.
From dealing with the threat of jail time over legal costs to finally being a single man, Tyrese is walking into his Capricorn season with a spirit of gratitude.
