Xzibit and His Estranged Wife Krista Joiner Now Legally Single  

Amid their tenuous divorce proceedings, West Coast legend Xzibit and his estranged wife Krista Joiner had been legally declared single.

According to PEOPLE, Xzibit and Joiner’s official request for bifurcation was granted, and they were both “restored to the status of single persons” on Monday, April 28.

Xzibit filed for the bifurcation on April 24, and it “separates marital status from divorce proceedings regarding child and spousal support.”

Per the filing, the pair separated “over four years ago” and “in the present case, the parties’ marriage is no longer viable, and reconciliation is not possible.”

“While I am hopeful that a trial on all the issues will be set in the very near future, in all likelihood it may take months for the trial to commence and longer to conclude,” Xzibit wrote in the documents.

“I no longer want to be married to Petitioner. I request that our marital status be terminated as soon as possible,” his filing continued. “Restoring Petitioner and I to single persons is in both of our best interests and will allow us to alleviate emotional strain and pressure and hopefully help facilitate settlement on all reserved issues.”

Roslyn Esquire,  Xzibit’s lawyer, also claimed that Joiner’s legal representatives haven’t gotten back to her since April 7.

According to TMZ, the documents were filed by the couple to amend her current spousal support to over $21,000 and child support to over $9,000 “in order to maintain their lifestyle.” Also, Joiner and their son were removed from their home because they could not pay the $10,000 rent, among other luxury expenses such as designer clothing.

Joiner is also requesting $300,000 in attorney fees.

Speaking with InTouch Weekly, Joiner explained her difficult situation.

“I am extremely concerned that I have no funds in case of an emergency, and during the present fire-related emergency,” Joiner said. “[Xzibit] has proven that he will not assist, or even inquire to see if we need help, during this or any other emergency.”
