According to documents obtained by TMZ the singer said they have been separated and living in separate homes since September 5th. Jill did get a pre-nuptial agreement signed going into the marriage and she wants it enforced.  The divorce filing was made on September 15th.

This is Scott’s second marriage, the first being to Lyzel Williams.

Jill was also once engaged to musician Lil John Roberts, and the pair have a son named Jett.

Recently filed divorce documents cites “irreconcilable differences” and “inappropriate marital conduct that such further cohabitation would be unsafe and improper” as the reason for the divorce. In Tennessee, “inappropriate marital conduct” could range from infidelity to abuse.

Dobson exclusively explained to Bossip that he was “blindsided” by the divorce. He continues with saying, “She’s an evil woman” ” she has issues” and “she likes to emasculate men”.

He might be right. When Scott filed for divorce she did list Dobson as unemployed, but Dobson claims he has been employed with the city of Atlanta since 2011.
