I hate reading about divorces. Especially when the couple has been together for as long as Dr. Dre and Young have. 24 years is a long time to be together to not be able to work out differences.
The last time they were spotted out was February. That’s right before the quarantine. Maybe, the quarantine got the best of them. There have been reports that divorce rates have surged amid the coronavirus pandemic.
“It’s really a make-it-or break-it situation,” divorce lawyer Jacqueline Newman told Fox News. “A lot of the complaints I get [form couples] are they don’t bond, they don’t connect, they’re always busy and the people that want to make it work are getting a rare opportunity to do so.”
