Stevie Wonder's divorce papers are signed, sealed, delivered. 

The singer has filed for divorce from his wife of 11 years, Kai Millard Morris. TMZ reports the Motown legend cited irreconcilable differences as the reason for divorce. Wonder and Morris have been separated since 2009. 

According to the legal documents, Wonder agrees to pay spousal support and child support for the couple's two children, ages 10 and 7. He will seek joint custody of the kids. It is not clear how much of Wonder's assets Morris will have legal claim over. 

This is Wonder's second divorce. He was previously married to fellow Motown singer Syreeta Wright, until they called it quits in 1972.
