Raymond Santana has called it quits on his 20-month marriage to reality star turned media host Deelishis. Court documents show that the Exonerated Five member filed for divorce in Gwinnett County, Georgia, in February.
According to the divorce papers, the marriage was “irretrievably broken with no hope of reconciliation.” The couple’s union may have been on the outs for months before Santana actually filed for divorce. Santana and Deelishis, born Chandra Davis, have a mutual restraining order (MRO) against one another. The order was executed on October 28, 2021. In Georgia, a mutual restraining order is a court order that states “neither party can cancel health or auto insurance policies, sell marital assets, or remove the children from the county, state, or country.”
Although the MRO may seem benign, the individual or parties could be found in contempt if one party breaks the agreement. Brittany Martin represents Santana, and Deelishis’ counsel is Elizabeth Cruz Noellien.
The couple had a hearing on March 1. The same day the Flava of Love alum called out her estranged husband on Instagram. The Shade Room shared a screenshot of the photo with the caption, “I married a narcissist who is a COMPLETE liar and a cheat, and I’m finally ready to speak my truth…stay tuned. #GlovesOff.”

A fan offered Deelishis words of encouragement and support– to which she thanked the person and revealed that Santana initiated leaving.
“I didn’t leave him. I stuck it out,” she wrote. “He left us.”
In June 2020, the 44-year-old reality star and Santana, 47, were married in a lavish ceremony in Georgia. The star-studded event occurred at the height of the pandemic. The marriage was preceded by a brief engagement in December 2019.
