The former couple filed for divorce in April 2019, not long after it was learned that Hunter’s alleged girlfriend was having a baby. However, in August of 2019, Williams admitted that she had known about his double life "for years." Their divorce was finalized in January 2020. 

Williams and Hunter first met in 1994 and married three years later. They share a son, Kevin Hunter Jr.

After the divorce, Hunter relaunched Hunter Publishing Group, which he received as a part of the divorce settlement, according to Page Six. The group has three authors on its roster so far— Sonia Alleyne, and attorney Ray Hamlin. Their books are all expected later this year.
