Kenny G has finally decided to end paying spousal support to his ex-wife Lyndie Benson following their divorce.
According to the court documents filed by Kenny's lawyer, Laura Wasser, a request has been made to the judge to end the spousal support payment of $40,000 that Kenny has been sending to Lyndie each month.
The reason Kenny wants to stop paying spousal support is that he is falling short of touring opportunities. The Covid-19 pandemic has severely affected his tours, which are his main source of income. He mentioned in court documents that his income has decreased since 2018. Laura's legal documents stated:
"Lyndie has refused to become fully self-supporting for almost 10 years. Kenny should not have to continue to bear the burden of her refusal to do so."
Kenny and Lyndie tied the knot in 1992 and the duo later became the parents of two children – Max and Noah. The pair divorced in 2012.
Kenny was previously married to Janice DeLeon from 1980 to 1987.
