She’s Chris Evert Again After a Brief Court Appearance to Complete Divorce
Tennis star Chris Evert Lloyd became Chris Evert again Tuesday after a brief appearance in court to complete her divorce from British tennis pro John Lloyd.
The appointment to complete the divorce had been scheduled for Thursday, but she appeared at the judge’s office two days early to wrap up the divorce.
“She came in at 9:30 this morning with her attorney and a residency witness and asked if the judge could accommodate them this morning instead of Thursday,” said Bunny Costantino, a judicial assistant for Broward Circuit Judge Joseph Price. “They had a waiver from Mr. Lloyd. It was finalized and she’s gone back to her maiden name.”
Bob Kain, agent for Evert, said the financial agreement “is being kept private and confidential.”
“Chris Evert Lloyd has gone back to her maiden name,” he said in a prepared statement. “Both parties are very amicable. No further comment from either party will be made at this time.”
In the papers filed in Broward County March 31, Evert listed irreconcilable differences as grounds to end their eight-year marriage.
