Damon Dash's Wife Rachel Roy Files For Divorce
By Allen Starbury ♦ Published 03/24/2009

2009-03-24 - Damon Dash and Rachel RoyRoc-A-Fella Records and Rocawear co-founder Damon Dash has been hit with divorce papers by his fashion designer wife Rachel Roy, reports the New York Daily News.

The paper reports that Roy filed the papers this month in Manhattan Supreme Court after four years of marriage, and in the papers it says the divorce is for "nonmonetary relief" and should be resolved by February.

The couple was married in January 2005 in Mexico. They met when Roy was working at Rocawear. The couple has two daughters together.

Dash has reportedly lost most of his fortune. Despite bragging about being worth "about $50 million" to New York magazine in 2006, he's since been hit with several lawsuits and is reportedly in massive debt.

Late last year, reports surfaced that revealed he owed $2.1 million to the New York State Department of Taxation and Finance, and months earlier two of his New York homes -- worth around $7.3 million -- were going into foreclosure.

"He's broke, he's got nothing left," a source told the NY paper.

    Although, I am on the sidelines, you must watch what you do people because Karma will find you. dame...this is to you specifically. When you messed up regarding your partnership, instead of undercutting yourself further by sidelining with the very same person that caused a breech in this business/ friend relationship, you should have gone to Jay w/ some man to man lingo and resolved what you negatively generated, and what I don't understand is that you continued in this pattern of under currently lashing out at him via other people...who we'll just say were weaker links in your disloyalty, but most incredible baby is that you believed that you were strategically maneuvering and getting back at Jay with all that negative talk. One thing for sure in all this time no one ever heard any negative statements from Biggs...ever. Loose lips sink ships aka brought you down to the point where you are forced to face your downfall all on your own becuzzz it looks like Rachel has seen the light, and has swiftly made preparations to change her status (that will no longer include your presence),from minus to plus. All because you were too proud to bury the hatchet and claim what you said...which were so many things...did you not think it would get back to Jay...from your trying to put cameron in Roc-a-fella as VP while Jay was away doing business, but the you took it even lower when you got together w/ cam and he did that Mickey Mouse mix tape trying to make a point (when clearly he should have paid homage to someone who helped his career when he was clinging on to Roc-a-fella as an artist. You messed up big time son...WTF were you thinking, clearly you had to be on some mind altering drugs. You lost your mind...you better phone into how to be a millionaire b/c you clearly need a lifeline buddy. Your belligerence and disrespect to others has done you in. KARMA

    @~olga~ : Yea, you right Karma... but you should never enjoy another man's suffering. That's just plain wrong.

    We'll see what Dash is made of. Real hustlers can bounce back from situations like this. I think he's got it in him. But karma is a mother though. He should've just grinded and kept his mouth shut.

    Much love to dame and his wife. No one knows the entire story but them. Just like the whole story behind roc a fella the only one that knows the entire story is the three partners. Speculation is nothing facts are everything.

    I feel as if when you get married ; you should ride or die for your man. He becomes broke ride with him. threw all hard times.

    First of all what was Dame thinking about, splitting up with the HOTTEST RAPPER in the game, Co-founder of your company,and the guy who put you on the map. In the military we have a little saying " you are only as strong as your weakest link". I guess Dame thought that Jay was the weakest link. I do not know how but he must have because there is no way I would have parted ways with one of the greatest rapper of all times and a very smart business man.
