UPDATED: John Cena Files For Divorce

UPDATE: Liz Cena’s attorney tells TMZ that John Cena blindsided her with the divorce filing. The two had been having issues, but she refused to sign a pre-divorce financial settlement agreement that Cena had approached her about. She apparently still believed the relationship could be worked out.

ORIGINAL: According to The Miami Herald, John Cena had filed for divorce from his wife of three years. The divorce papers state that the marriage is “irretrievably broken.” Cena’s soon to be ex-wife Liz, who was his high school sweetheart, has hired Miami attorney Raymond Rafool, the same attorney that represented Linda Hogan in her divorce from Hulk Hogan.

Cena is reportedly worth over $18 million, and the couple has a prenuptial agreement signed in 2009, that is said to include the ability to take back all gifts and presents.

Rafool released the following statement today…

“Although it is indeed unfortunate that John Cena decided to divorce his high school sweetheart Liz Cena; particularly, after they have come so far in their lives and in his career together, Liz will and really has no choice but to pursue all of her rights and entitlements. Although Mr. Cena pushes a prenuptial agreement and that the parties have only been married for approximately 3 years, Liz Cena has always supported John Cena, even when no one else did, and stood behind him and pushed him forward to achieve their goals for the last 14 years. Sadly, divorce is not the way Liz thought her perfect love story would end.”
