Tory Lanez secretly married Raina Chassagne shortly before he reported to prison. But now, less than a year after the I Do’s – she’s divorcing him, Media Take Out has confirmed.
According to court documents obtained by Media Task Out, Lanez — born Daystar Peterson — said “I do” to Chassagne in June 2023 just three months before he began his 10-year sentence for shooting fellow rapper Megan Thee Stallion in the foot in July 2020.
Raina — with whom Lanez shares one child — is now saying “I Don'” and she’s filed to end the pair’s short-lived union Monday.
She cited “irreconcilable differences” as her reason for the split.
Chassagne never changed her last name, and it’s unclear how long she and Lanez, 31, dated before getting hitched on June 25, 2023.
Chassagne is also seeking sole legal and physical custody of their 7-year-old son, Kai, but agreed to visitation.
Tory is a Canadian rapper, singer, songwriter, and record producer. First discovered by Jamaican-American singer Sean Kingston, he received initial recognition for his mixtape Conflicts of My Soul: The 416 Story, released in August 2013. In 2015, Lanez signed with record producer Benny Blanco’s Mad Love Records, an imprint of Interscope Records.
Lanez’ debut studio album, I Told You (2016) explored alternative R&B and was commercially successful. It was supported by the singles “Say It” and “Luv,” which peaked at numbers 23 and 19 on the US Billboard Hot 100, respectively. Both released in 2018, Lanez’ second and third albums, Memories Don’t Die and Love Me Now? delved further into hip hop and were met with continued commercial success despite mixed reviews; the former became his first album to peak atop the Canadian Albums Chart, while the latter spawned the double platinum-certified single “Talk to Me” (with Rich the Kid). His fourth album and final major label release, Chixtape 5 (2019) peaked at number two on the US Billboard 200, while his fifth album, Daystar (2020) peaked at number ten. He then released his 1980s-inspired sixth album, Alone at Prom (2021), followed by his seventh, Sorry 4 What (2022) until his incarceration.
