Mary J. Blige Wants A Man With More Money Than She

Mary B. Blige may not be ready for another relationship right now, but her future man had better have his own bank account.

Speaking to DJ Ace on BBC Radio 1Xtra this week, the queen of hip-hop soul said she’s done with broke men.

“He has to have more money than me, that’s for sure,” Blige, 48, quipped to DJ Ace when asked about her ideal guy. “Because I’m not taking care of any more men!”

Blige was famously married to music producer Martin “Kendu” Isaacs for 12 years before splitting in 2016. The couple’s divorce took years to iron out and a judge decreed that Blige must pay her former husband spousal support in the sum of $30,000 a month. Their divorce was finalized in the spring of 2018.

The “No More Drama” singer, who is now taking opera lessons, said she’s also enjoying her freedom as a single woman these days.

Speaking on her life post-divorce, she said, “I’m having a ball. I’m having so much fun. I’m free. Free in my mind. Free in my spirit. Free to be me, to do me and just enjoy my life and have people enjoy it with me.”
