Roger Waters has filed for divorce from his fifth wife after five years of marriage.

The Pink Floyd co-founder, who is 83, listed his filing to divorce Kamilah Chavis as "contested" in the New York Supreme Court this week, People magazine reports, meaning there are unresolved issues between the pair.

The couple met when Chavis was Waters' driver between his hotel and Coachella during the week of his 2016 appearance at the festival. They married in 2021, with Waters announcing the news on social media.

"I'm so happy, finally a keeper," he shared at the time.

Waters' first marriage in 1969 was to his high school sweetheart, Judy Trim. They separated seven years later.

Shortly after that, he married Lady Carolyne Christie, the mother of his two eldest children, Harry and India.

Following their divorce in 1992, he met actor Priscilla Phillips, whom he married in 1993. Phillips is the mother of Waters' third child, Jack. They were married for eight years before divorcing in 2001.

The Dark Side of the Moon lyricist then began dating filmmaker and actor Laurie Durning in 2004. He wed for the fourth time in 2012, but that marriage lasted just three years.

Waters left Pink Floyd in 1985 due to creative differences with guitarist David Gilmour.
