Wayne Brady Divorce Finalized After Years Of Separation

LOS ANGELES — Wayne Brady is officially single again. The 35-year-old comedian has been living separately from his wife, Mandie, for four years, but the couple's divorce was just finalized this week.

According to papers filed Monday in Los Angeles Superior Court, the pair married in April 1999 and officially separated in April 2006, citing irreconcilable differences. They have one daughter, 5-year-old Maile Brady.

"Mandie is my best friend. We still love each other and we are raising our beautiful daughter Maile together as a team," Brady said in a statement issued by his publicist.

The couple used a mediator to arrive at a final divorce settlement. Details about their child custody, child support and property-division arrangements were not made public.

Brady recently guest-starred on TV's "Everybody Hates Chris" and "How I Met Your Mother."

He's a nice guy, unassuming, unpretentious. I'm pretty sure that's why his wife, probably one of the minions of disillusioned and confused women, divorced him. Probably for butch, macho dude.

He's also the host of a TV show every single week called "Don't Forget The Lyrics" -- My the crack (head) team of reporters at Huffington Post is really amazing.

I can't look at Wayne Brady without busting out laughing after seeing his skit on the Dave Chappelle show!
