Cheryl Burke’s Ex-Husband Matthew Lawrence Recently Revealed a New Relationship

Burke and her ex-husband, Matthew Lawrence, announced their separation and filed for divorce in 2022.

On December 31, 2022, Lawrence went Instagram official with his new girlfriend for the first time since the split. His girlfriend, Chilli, is from the 90s group TLC. According to a source speaking with TMZ, the two made their relationship official just before the winter holidays.

Burke clapped back after seeing the Instagram video of the two together, taking to her Instagram Stories to write, “That was fast…” on an all-black background.

Fans called out Burke for sharing the message, which some called “petty” and “immature.”

Burke filed for divorce after nearly three years of marriage in early 2022. The couple reached a settlement in the divorce in September 2022.

According to court documents obtained by The Blast at the time of the settlement, Burke and Lawrence agreed to settle their divorce rather than go through any lengthy court cases.

The documents showed that Lawrence and Burke had already signed a written agreement regarding their divorce before sending their documents into the court.

According to The Blast, this is not common among celebrity divorces.

“The parties have entered into a written agreement regarding their property and their marriage or domestic partnership, rights, including support, the original of which is being or has been submitted to the court. I request that the court approve the agreement,” the document states, according to The Blast.

The couple had a prenuptial agreement signed before they wed, which likely had a part in how quickly their divorce was settled.
