Judge Mathis vows to win back wife after filing for divorce

Judge Mathis is serious about getting his wife back despite her divorce filing, and he’s issuing a warning to men who don’t put their spouses first.

Divorce is never pleasant and experiencing the end of a relationship in the public eye must be torture. Judge Mathis’ wife, Linda, filed for divorce after 39 years, leaving behind him in ruins.

According to TMZ, Mathis, who admitted to being in pain, said he wouldn’t go down without a fight. After immediately revealing that his life was “terrible” in the midst of Linda’s case, the judge told cameras that his busy schedule played a role in the end of his marriage.

“I’m here at the airport now, flying like I’ve been doing for 25 years… My wife is the third, serving the community, recording my show, having fun with friends,” he said before offering advice to his countrymen. “Never get too busy and never have too much fun outside of your life.”

Mathis gave more insight into the situation, revealing that the two still share a house, so he hopes they can work things out.

“We still live in the same house and we have a friendship, and I’m trying to get my wife back,” he said. “I have to show her that… I hope I can show her while we’re there together, and I hope she doesn’t finish the process.”

He also denied cheating rumors and a false rumor that he had an inappropriate relationship with a minor.

We hope Judge Mathis can save his marriage because you can see the stress on his face. Our blessings are with the judge and his queen as they try to sort out their situation.
