Judge Mathis, known for his arbitration-based reality court show that aired for 24 seasons from September 13, 1999, to May 25, 2023, has been a prominent figure in American television. His show, Judge Mathis, not only entertained but also educated viewers on legal matters, making him a household name.

According to a report by Media Take Out, Linda Mathis’s decision to file for divorce was not due to any scandalous reasons. Instead, close friends of Linda revealed that the filing was rooted in the strain caused by Judge Mathis’s intense work schedule. At 64, Judge Mathis continues to run a series of charities and manages a production company, reportedly working 70-80 hours a week. This relentless pace has taken a toll on their relationship.

An insider close to Linda shared, “Linda sacrificed her whole life for that man. He’s been working 24/7 for the better part of the last 30 years.” The friend continued, “[Judge Mathis] promised Linda that he would slow down and that they could travel the world together and enjoy the rest of their lives. But he’s not trying to slow down.”

Linda’s decision to file for divorce reflects her desire to prioritize her own well-being and happiness. “Life is too short and if [Judge Mathis] wants to run around the country working, he can do that. But Linda’s not willing to sacrifice any longer,” Linda’s close friend explained.

Despite the divorce filing, there may still be hope for the couple. The insider suggested that Judge Mathis has one last chance to save his marriage. “If he agrees to slow down and value his wife, she might take him back,” the friend added.

In June 2022, Linda Mathis revealed to her daughter and mother that since the kids moved out of the house, the romance between her and Judge Mathis increased. Linda emphasized that every marriage encounters challenges and periods of difficulty. Nevertheless, what truly counts is the couple's ability to navigate these setbacks and work together to overcome them.
