Akon Allegedly Pulls a Hakimi 2.0 in €100 Million Divorce Drama

After 29 years of marriage, Akon’s wife, Tomeka Thiam, has reportedly filed for divorce, and the story has set the internet buzzing with equal parts shock and curiosity. According to People, Tomeka filed the papers in early September, citing irreconcilable differences and requesting joint legal custody of their daughter while seeking physical custody for herself.

But beyond the official filing, what has really grabbed attention are the alleged details surrounding money. Several reports circulating online claim that Tomeka is demanding a staggering €100 million as part of the settlement, arguing that she contributed significantly to Akon’s success and growing fortune over the years. Things get even more dramatic with claims that, upon review, Akon’s personal bank account showed a balance of only $10,000, with the rest of his assets allegedly held under his mother’s name.

These claims, however, have yet to be verified by credible sources. While tabloids such as The Express Tribune and several online blogs have pushed the story, major outlets like People and New York Post have not confirmed any of the financial details. What is confirmed is that a divorce filing was indeed made, but the rest, including the €100 million demand and the mystery of the missing millions, remains speculation at best.

Still, it’s the kind of drama that draws everyone in. Akon isn’t just any celebrity, he’s a global artist who made waves with chart-topping hits like “Lonely,” “Locked Up,” and “Smack That,” before venturing into ambitious projects such as his proposed “Akon City” in Senegal. With that kind of legacy, whispers about hidden wealth and family-held funds make for a storyline straight out of a legal thriller.

As of now, Akon has not publicly responded to the divorce or to the financial allegations making rounds. Neither he nor his representatives have released a statement addressing the supposed €100 million claim or the report about his funds being in his mother’s name.

For now, what stands is a confirmed divorce filing, and a swirl of unverified rumors about how much money is truly at stake. Until more concrete information surfaces, everything else remains, as the internet likes to say, “allegedly.”
