Damon Dash’s Wife Files For Divorce

 •  XXL Magazine  •  by XXL Staff  •  22 Comments

Former Roc-A-Fella and Rocawear big Damon Dash was hit with divorce papers by his fashion designer wife Rachel Roy, according to New York’s Daily News.

Apparently Roy filed for divorce this month in Manhattan Supreme Court and expects everything to be resolved by February of next year. Her reasons for leaving are “non monetary relief.” The couple, who has been married for over four years, has two daughters.

This is the latest legal mess Dash has gotten himself into. Along with facing several lawsuits by various law firms and landlords for not paying his bills, the one time hip-hop mogul also recently got his SUV repossessed after he failed to make the monthly payments of $715.

Dash is trying to plot a comeback associating himself with fellow Harlemite Jim Jones. Acting as a mentor, he is co-producing the Dipset Capo’s play, Hip-Hop Monologes: Inside the Life and Mind of Jim Jones, which relaunches tonight (March 24), as well as the rapper’s documentary This Is Jim Jones. – Elan Mancini

  • kelito-vision

    damn homie in college u was the man homie wtf happened to u

  • MR. UNDI$PUTED THE MOGUL

    TO USE A BITCHSET TERM, “AT THE END OF THE DAY”, ALL OF THIS COULD’VE/WOULD’VE/SHOULD’VE BEEN AVOIDED IF DAME HADN’T ALLOWED HIS EGO TO RUN AMOK. HE ACTUALLY BELIEVED THAT LINE HE USED IN THE “BACKSTAGE” MOVIE ABOUT “WHEN PEOPLE TALK ABOUT ROC-A-FELLA THEY JUST DON’T THINK ABOUT JAY-Z, THEY THINK ABOUT DAME & BIGGS & OTHER’S”?! IF HE HAD BEEN CONTENT TO JUST RUN THE BUSINESS & MANAGE THE ARTISTS’ HIS LIFE WOULD BE GRAVY! WHEN TRYING TO BE THE “MAN” GOES HORRIBLY WRONG!!!! IF HE’S GONE BROKE, I WONDER HOW MUCH $$$ BIGGS HAS LEFT SINCE HE WAS A PARTNER WITH DAME IN EVERYTHING.
    RACHEL DON’T WANT NO $$$ FROM HIM BECUASE HE’S BROKE & SHE JUST SIGNED A BIG DEAL FOR HER COMPANY LAST YEAR. THE QUESTION NOW FOR THE SO CALLED “CAKE-A-HOLIC” IS “WHERE’S THE BREAD GONE COME FROM NOW?! HE BETTER HOPE CAM & JENNY CONTINUE TO HELP HIM EARN SOME $$$.

    Being a “Cake-a-holic” had you strung. Good luck on your recovery.

    Sux for you D. You prolly shouldn’t have bought that volvo if you can’t afford 7 bens a month. Muthafuckas need 2 pay their bills

  • Watz

    maaaann i remember when dame was one of the roc boys who everybody knew, but like jAY say, “see Jesus see judas see malcom, see sucsess and its outcome” dame should of played his position, you cant win at everythng , but he wanted his fingers in all the pies and his name in lights along side Jay, that was never his status, he should have been content being a vital cog of the ROC machine, but he wanted to be a key component as well as control it too.. i remember dame sayin a year or so go that he and his fiiine mrs was gonna be potentially doing 100′s of million dollar deals within there business as it was a billion dollar industy blah blah yadda yadda just gassin how Dame do. now only thing he will be brokering right now is a decent divorce settlement. BROTHERS LEARN THE LESSONS STAY HUMBLE AND DONT TRY TO BE SOMEONE/SOMETHING U ARE NOT,AS JIGGA SAY “BE ALL YOU CAN BELIKE THE RESERVES” YES but within what your best at!!

    D-dot-Dash/you losin’ money fast/Competition is none, none, none! LOL

  • fireforreal

    The funny thing about this is in his next interview won’t be about him being divorced he’ll just mention Jay-z . One way or another he always has to speak on Jay. If Dame is such a Boss and these journalist keep wanting to talk about Jay why doesn’t he say fuck that, I’m not here to speak on that cat. But all in all I hope him and his soon to be ex can find peace.

  • anutha_level

    even though this nigga deservin EVERYthing he gettin hit wit right now – cuz he was a bitch-made asshole back in the day – this just goes to show…karma is a bitch, and bitches STILL ain’t shit.

  • Beast McCoy

    Who didn’t see this coming? I bet homegirl thought she was kimora until that her meal ticket couldn’t get punched anymore. This only goes to show that for some women a romance with no finance is a damn nuisance. Somewhere Jay is probably laughing but needs to heed this future if his cash gets low with Mrs. Carter.

    Damn I just noticed…Dame got an ET head LOL

  • chitchat

    Their marriage was always weird anyway. He knocked her up while she was interning, dumped her for Aaliyah, took her back after Aaliyah died… I’m sure he knew she wasnt gonna be riding with him after he played her like that.
