Tina Campbell on phone about band reunion amid divorce.

This one has me feeling TWO completely different ways, because Mary Mary's Tina Campbell is going through a divorce after more than 25 years of marriage, and her court filings are revealing a pretty serious financial gap.

According to court documents, Tina says she's currently working about 20 hours a week and bringing in approximately $4,976 a month.

Her reported monthly expenses?

$11,933.

BABY.

The calculator just fell off the desk. 😭

Her reported expenses include about $4,100 in rent, $1,800 for groceries and household supplies, $2,200 for utilities and $1,308 in automobile expenses, along with health care, phone costs, education and charitable giving. Tina estimates estranged husband Teddy Campbell earns approximately $7,500 per month as a drummer.

Teddy filed for divorce in April after more than 25 years of marriage. Tina's filing lists their separation as August 2024, while Teddy previously listed June 2024. Tina is seeking legal and physical custody of their two minor children, with visitation for Teddy, and she's asking the court to terminate the possibility of Teddy receiving spousal support.

🔴 LADY RED'S TAKE: TINA... COME HERE, SIS.

Now I'm going to say this with LOVE.

Because us sisters gotta stick together when somebody is down.

We're not supposed to kick another woman while she's struggling.

We're not supposed to stand over her screaming:

“I TOLD YOUR ASS SO!”

That's not sisterly.

That's not supportive.

That's not uplifting.

So Tina...

Come here, sis. ❤️

Give me a hug.

🫂

You gonna get through this.

God got you.

Your talent didn't disappear.

Your voice didn't disappear.

Your sister didn't disappear.

Your catalog didn't disappear.

Your fans didn't disappear.

And I absolutely REFUSE to kick you while you're down.

But...

👀

Just one little thing before we move on...

I TOOOOOOOOLD YOU SOOOOOOOO!

😭😭😭😭😭

I'M SORRY!

I TRIED!

Because anybody who watched Mary Mary remembers that marriage was going THROUGH IT.

Teddy's infidelity became a major storyline, and Tina publicly talked about the heartbreak and the work they put into trying to save their marriage.

And back then I was looking at the television like:

GIRL, LEAVE HIS AAAAASS!

Because Mary Mary was HOT.

Records moving.

Shows.

Touring.

Reality television.

Erica and Tina had built a BRAND.

And I remember thinking, don't let this man's mess derail what you and your sister built.

Now, to be fair, I am NOT going to claim Teddy single-handedly broke up Mary Mary or that Tina would've automatically been swimming in millions today if she'd divorced him back then. That's hindsight talking, and life ain't that simple.

But BABY...

You can't stop Lady Red's brain from wondering:

WHAT IF?!

What if Mary Mary had kept going full force?

What if the group had continued recording and touring consistently during those peak years?

What if all that energy spent trying to repair a broken marriage had gone into the business?

Would Tina be filing court papers today saying she's making $4,976 a month with nearly $12,000 going out?

WE DON'T KNOW.

But I KNOW I'm not the only person thinking it. 👀

And I bet somewhere in the middle of all this Tina has had at least ONE moment where she looked at Erica like:

“Soooooo... what you doing next Thursday?”

😭😭😭

🎤 MARY MARY REUNION, PERHAPS?!

Because baby, if there was EVER a time to dust off “Shackles,” get them harmonies together and tell the booking agent:

“OPEN THE CALENDAR!”

THIS MIGHT BE IT.

😂😂😂

But jokes aside, THIS is the part I really mean.

A woman can make a decision at 30 or 40 based on love, faith, marriage, children and what she believes is right at that moment, then look back years later and wish she'd chosen differently.

That doesn't mean we celebrate her struggle.

And it doesn't mean Tina is finished.

She's TINA CAMPBELL FROM MARY FREAKIN' MARY.

That voice still works.

That catalog still exists.

That name still means something.

So I'm not kicking my sister while she's down.

I'm reaching my hand down and saying:

GET YOUR ASS UP.

❤️

And after you get up...

Call Erica.

Call the band.

Call the promoter.

Call somebody with a damn TOUR BUS.

Because $4,976 coming in while $11,933 is going out ain't a financial plan.

THAT'S A COUNTDOWN CLOCK. 😭

And Tina, we love you.

We support you.

We want you to win.

We're praying for you.

And Lady Red would NEVER be the type of woman to rub an old decision in another woman's face during a difficult divorce.

Absolutely not.

I'm more mature than that.😭😂🏃🏾‍♀️💨

Now tell us what URRR-ICKKA said about that Mary Mary reunion so we can get our tickets.
