Tracy Morgan, 40, "30 Rock" and "Saturday Night Live" comedian, filed for divorce from his wife of 23 years, Sabina, in Bronx Supreme Court on August 7th. The couple has been separated for the last eight years, and the filing was more of a formality that made the split official.

The couple's reasons for divorcing are unconfirmed, although reports suggest Sabina wanted to file for divorce in January 2008 because of Tracy's alleged drinking problem. It is unclear whether she followed through. (Tracy has faced a number of DUI-related charges over the years.) Purportedly, the couple long abandoned plans of reconciliation, and Tracy has had romantic relationships with numerous women in the past several years.

Tracy and Sabina have three sons: Gitrid, 23, Malcolm, 21, and Tracy, Jr., 17.

Tracy regularly appeared on "Saturday Night Live" between 1996 and 2003. At present, he plays the character Tracy Jordan on NBC's comedy "30 Rock".
