Filed Doesn’t Mean Finished: Shekinah Says Sarper’s Circle Is Blocking the Divorce Papers

Filed Doesn’t Mean Finished: Shekinah Says Sarper’s Circle Is Blocking the Divorce Papers

Shekinah Garner says she cannot even get the divorce papers to her husband. Her Instagram Stories post — reported November 11 by Complex — accuses the women around Sarper Güven of blocking attempts to serve him, and ends with a laughing emoji.

The post — two years to the day after the couple married — claims she has tried to have Sarper formally served and that the attempts keep getting blocked. Complex stresses the details come from a fan account, and remain unconfirmed.

Sept. 21: Sarper Announces the Split at the Tell All

The trail starts at the 90 Day: The Last Resort Season 3 Tell All on September 21. Sarper announced there that the marriage was over, and said the couple had been separated since early 2026. Shekinah skipped the Tell All, citing her mental health, and answered the next day: she still saw herself as married — “I still see myself as married because I am.”

Sarper also claimed at the Tell All that Shekinah had asked him for $50,000 in cash for “emotional damage,” according to reports.

Sept. 28: “Filed Doesn’t Mean Finished”

A week later, on September 28, Shekinah filed for divorce, citing irreconcilable differences and listing September 22 as the separation date. “Filing for divorce was not a decision I made lightly or without heartbreak,” she told TMZ at the time, “but I’ve reached a point of no return.”

Sarper, meanwhile, was already calling himself single: in alleged direct messages shared by a woman named Khloey, he reportedly wrote “I’m single” and “Divorce papers filed.” Shekinah’s answer, in short: filed doesn’t mean finished.

Nov. 8: The $6,189 Number Enters the Fight

The money arrived six weeks later. Court documents obtained by TMZ, reported November 8, say Shekinah is asking a judge to order Sarper to pay $6,189 a month in spousal support, plus $35,000 toward her attorney fees — the $6,189-a-month ask fans argued over all week.

Her filing frames the marriage as a trade-off: she says she shut her Los Angeles facial studio for roughly three weeks per trip to Turkey every two months, and her business ended up about $51,000 in the red. Sarper’s comedy business, by contrast, grossed more than $280,000 on the couple’s joint tax return — about $180,000 net. Those are her numbers, and a judge has not ruled on them.

Nov. 11: The Papers That Can’t Find Their Man

That brings us to today — and the part nobody can verify yet. According to fan account @90dayfianceupdate, Shekinah has repeatedly tried to have Sarper served at stops on his comedy tour, and women around him — and allegedly Sarper himself — intercepted the attempts. Complex stresses the claim is unconfirmed, and Sarper has not responded to this latest accusation.

What is on the record is her own post. “To the whores around my husband who think they are protecting him by not allowing him to be served, you’re just keeping him married longer,” she wrote on Instagram Stories, ending with a laughing emoji, as quoted by Complex.

Until the papers are served, the divorce cannot move forward. The money fight is on paper; the divorce itself is still waiting at the door. Whatever a judge decides about the money — and the divorce math behind the $6,189 figure is still being argued over — none of it starts until he is served.

So the question is not whether Shekinah wants out — she filed 44 days ago. It is whether the papers will ever reach Sarper — and what she does next if the people around him keep standing in the way. If the process server finally gets through tomorrow, does “filed doesn’t mean finished” end the story — or start the next fight?
