’90s Star Headed For Divorce

Remember Carl Payne from the the classic ’90s sitcom “Martin (or Theo’s friend on “The Cosby Show” if you really want to take it back)?  The TV star is headed for divorce! Carl and his wife Melika were married for 20 years and are calling it off due to “irreconcilable differences” according to the divorce papers filed in L.A. County Superior Court.

Melika is seeking custody of their son and spousal support. We’re not sure how much Cole is pulling in from his BOUNCE TV sitcom “One Love,” but we have a feeling it isn’t much. However, “Martin” and “The Cosby Show” might still be bringing him checks.

Carl also played L.A. Reid in the TLC biopic.
