Former Real Housewives of Atlanta star, Brit Eady, has taken the decisive legal step to end her marriage to Michael Cunningham. The reality TV personality officially filed for divorce in Georgia, marking the formal conclusion of their five-year union.
Court Documents Reveal Details of the Split
The court filing, submitted on Wednesday, leaves little room for doubt about the state of the marriage. Eady, 37, stated unequivocally that the relationship is irretrievably broken and beyond repair. She confirmed the couple's separation date as December 1, adding that there is no possibility of reconciliation.
In a notable move, Eady has requested that the court award no alimony or spousal support to Cunningham. The filing also outlines their shared assets, which are minimal for a celebrity couple. They have no children together and only one major joint asset: their home in Fulton County.
An Amicable Division of Assets
Despite the breakdown of the marriage, the process appears to be moving forward without major conflict over property. The estranged pair have reportedly agreed to sell their shared home and split the proceeds equally. Beyond that, each party will retain ownership of their respective vehicles, simplifying the financial disentanglement.
Love, Lessons, and Moving Forward
Brit Eady's sentiments, as reflected in the filing and her past statements, paint a picture of a bittersweet parting. She expressed that she still holds love for Cunningham and hopes they can maintain a friendship as they both move on with their lives.
The Bravo star had previously hinted at the marital troubles in a now-deleted Instagram post on December 31. In that message, she spoke about choosing her own happiness and closing a painful chapter as the year ended. She later clarified that her decision was not a reaction to external rumors but a personal choice rooted in self-respect and personal boundaries.
Eady has framed the entire experience as a profound life lesson, one centered on personal growth, finding peace, and deepening her self-awareness. The divorce filing represents the legal finality to a personal journey that she has been navigating for several months.
