Judge Greg Mathis isn’t giving up on his marriage without a fight — despite his wife Linda Reese filing for divorce, the TV star is working tirelessly to win her back while they continue living under the same roof.

Judge Greg Mathis Hopes to Reconcile 

Judge Mathis, the beloved TV personality known for his long-running courtroom show, isn’t ready to let go of his nearly four-decade marriage to Linda Reese. After Linda filed for divorce earlier this month, Mathis has expressed his deep desire to win her back, revealing that this chapter of his life has been one of the most challenging.

Judge Mathis Shares His Struggles Amid Divorce

During a candid conversation with TMZ on August 30 at Los Angeles International Airport, Judge Mathis opened up about his emotions following Linda’s divorce filing. Initially, when asked how he was holding up, Mathis responded that he was doing “good,” but quickly corrected himself, acknowledging that these have been some of the “worst days” of his life.

“Not holding up very well. I will say that other men, maybe I’ll be an example for other men, a cautionary tale. Don’t neglect your wife,” Mathis said with sincerity. He admitted that over the years, his priorities had shifted away from his marriage, with his wife often coming in third place behind his career, community service, and even socializing with friends.

“Never be busy, never have too much fun beyond your wife,” Mathis advised, offering a word of caution to other men. When asked if the divorce was a long time coming, he avoided giving a direct answer but reiterated that his work often took precedence in the past and continues to do so, as he was traveling at the time of the interview. Despite the turbulence, Mathis insisted that they are still on friendly terms.

“We’re still in the same house and we’re maintaining a friendship, and I’m trying to get my wife back,” he revealed. “I have to show her that, though. Hopefully, I can show her while we’re there together. And hopefully, she doesn’t complete the process, but I’m changing in hopes that she will.”

Judge Mathis Denies Infidelity as the Cause of Divorce

Amid the speculation surrounding the divorce, Judge Mathis firmly addressed rumors of infidelity. He categorically denied that cheating or any other scandalous behavior, including alleged involvement with a minor, played a role in the breakup.

Mathis acknowledged that his demanding schedule might have led to suspicions, but he was clear that unfaithfulness was not a factor. “Infidelity was not the reason for the divorce,” Mathis emphasized, understanding how his busy life could have caused doubts.

Linda Reese’s Divorce Filing: What We Know

Linda Reese filed for divorce on August 22, citing irreconcilable differences, according to court documents obtained by PEOPLE. The documents list July 17, 2024, as the official date of separation. While the reasons behind the split remain general, Linda was specific about other aspects of the filing.

TMZ first reported that Linda is seeking spousal support as part of the divorce settlement, while also requesting that Judge Mathis be denied any spousal support from her. The details of whether a prenuptial agreement exists between the couple, who married in 1985, remain unclear.

Beyond his successful 24-season run as a TV judge, Greg Mathis also introduced audiences to his family life through the reality show Mathis Family Matters, which aired for one season in 2022. Despite the brief run, the show offered a glimpse into the lives of Mathis, Linda, and their four children — Jade, 39, Camara, 36, Greg Jr., 35, and Amir, 34 — all of whom are now adults.

With no minor children involved, the divorce proceedings will not include custody arrangements. The news of the divorce comes as a surprise to many, especially after the couple’s recent public appearance together in March at the Influencers Brunch, where they spoke about their family dynamics and the possibility of their reality show returning.

“We are a whole family, a wholesome family,” Greg said during the event. “We all have our flaws, but we don’t fight. Never have… If we have to fight, the answer is no [to returning].”

Linda added her perspective, saying, “Black families are great families and no, they’re not filled with inter-fighting… We want to have a strong influence on our community and show that.”

Moving Forward: The Future of the Mathis Family

As the Mathis family navigates this new chapter, fans and followers of Judge Mathis are left to wonder what the future holds for the once tightly-knit couple. While the divorce filing has set the stage for a potential separation, Judge Mathis’ determination to win back his wife’s love suggests that their story may not be over just yet. For now, the world watches as the couple works through this difficult time, hoping that their long history together might pave the way for reconciliation.
