Is Chauvin Married: Who Filed for Divorce After George Floyd’s Death?

Kellie Chauvin was Derek Chauvin’s wife. In the death of George Floyd, Derek was found guilty of second-degree unintentional murder, third-degree murder, and second-degree manslaughter.

The judge told everyone what the jury’s decision was just after 4 p.m. on April 20. After the news came out, Chauvin was seen being led out of court with his hands tied. On June 25, Chauvin was given a prison sentence of 22 1/2 years. But on December 25, Derick Chauvin signed a guilty plea in federal court in ST.

Paul. Before his huge sentence, the former Minneapolis police officer said only a few words.

“Right now, I can’t give a full statement because I have other legal issues to deal with,” Chauvin said. “But I do want to send my condolences to the Floyd family.” “In the future, there will be some other information that you might find interesting, and I hope that things will make you feel better.”

Kellie and Derek got a divorce soon after Derek was arrested for Floyd’s death. Together, they don’t have any kids. Kellie, 46, was born in Laos in 1974. After the war ended in 1977, her family moved to Thailand. She used to work as a radiologist and was a beauty queen. In 2018, she was named Mrs. Minnesota.

According to Twin Cities, Kellie entered the pageant at the urging of a pal. Kellie said that she wanted to represent the Hmong community because she had been picked on as a child because of her background, the way she looked, and the fact that she was a refugee.

She has helped a number of Hmong nonprofits and small businesses by giving them money. The mother of two has also volunteered as a translator at local hospitals and opened her home to Hmong women who are having a hard time.

She said, “I help them find places to live and jobs, and I give them the tools they need to do well.” It only takes one person to change something.”

Vantu News said that Kellie’s most recent job was working for the real estate company Re/Max to sell homes. Derek Chauvin, her white ex-husband and a police officer, was caught on camera kneeling on George Floyd’s neck for nine minutes, making sure he didn’t breathe until he died.

Floyd could be heard pleading, “I can’t breathe,” while Chauvin ignored people’s pleas to get off his neck. Chauvin lost his job as a police officer in Minneapolis, and his wife left him. Three more officers who helped with the arrest were also let go. Kellie Chauvin won the Mrs. Minnesota pageant in 2018.

Kellie Chauvin’s lawyer in Minneapolis, Sekula Law Offices, said that she was very upset about Floyd’s death. It says: “Kellie is very sad about Mr. Floyd’s death, and she feels the deepest sympathy for his family, his loved ones, and everyone else who is hurting because of it.

“She has asked for her marriage to Derek Chauvin to be dissolved.”

Even though Ms. Chauvin doesn’t have any children from her current marriage, she asks that her children, her elderly parents, and the rest of her family be given safety and privacy during this hard time.”

People liked what she said on Facebook. For example, Addison Steiner wrote: “She is one of my friends. Before she married Derek, I knew her.

“She is kind, gentle, and cares about other people. We will pray for her.” Marilyn Sychra added: “I pray that this woman finds peace and comfort. The things that were done to Mr. Floyd had nothing to do with her.” Brandi Cross wrote on Facebook, “My prayers are also with you, Kellie.” Your whole life changed in an instant, and nothing is the same as it used to be.”
