    According to the Chicago Tribune, Michael filed on June 19 in his Texas hometown.

    Vanessa and Michael tied the knot on January 4 at the Historic Walton House in Miami, Florida.

    The divorce news broke just a few days after Vanessa revealed on July 24 that she's pregnant with a baby boy.
