REAL Housewives of Atlanta star Kenya Moore and her husband Marc Daly called it quits only one year after they were married.

They first announced their separation in 2019 and filed for divorce in May 2021.

Who is Marc Daly?

Marc Daly, 52, rose to fame after he began dating Kenya Moore, a former Miss USA and The Real Housewives of Atlanta star.

Before his relationship with Moore became public, Daly worked at a Credit Suisse First Bolton Bank in New York City.

Daly then moved to work for Citibank as an investment banker, before moving up to the vice president position in the company.

He moved on from the world of banking and decided to take a chance at the restaurant business, where he established his successful southern fusion restaurant, SoCo, in Brooklyn.

The restaurant's designer, Andres Aladin, describes the restaurant on the website as: “…the Brooklyn Bridge turned into a restaurant. We wanted to play off of the design cues of the space and the history of the neighborhood being very industrial.

"The trick in designing this space was to keep it relaxed enough for casual lunches but sexy enough for dinner dates. I think we achieved our goals.”

When did Marc Daly and Kenya Moore separate?

Daly released a statement in January 2021, that his marriage to the Bravo star has ended for the second time following a failed attempt to rekindle their romance. 

“After recently attending mediation, Kenya and I have agreed to end our marriage,” he told The Root. 

He continued: "I will always have great care for her and look forward to amicably continuing to co-parent our daughter Brooklyn with an abundance of love and wisdom.

“As always, in addition to perpetual self-improvement, my primary focus will continue to be helping the underserved and people of color in Brooklyn to recover from the negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. 

“This focus will take shape through using my restaurant as a ‘Community Hub’ where positive and diverse perspectives on important topics such as economic empowerment, social activism and political engagement can be highlighted in a safe and productive forum.

“I’m blessed to be a positive change agent for not just my family but also my community. Peace and love,” he concluded the message. 

The pair first announced they split in September 2019 but later reconciled. 

Are Kenya Moore and Marc Daly still together?

Moore said she and Daly's divorce was still not finalized in May 2022, a year after they first filed the paperwork.

The divorce has been drawn out after Daly requested the court to require Moore to pay for his legal fees and as the couple battles for custody of their child.

Although Daly conceded physical custody to Moore, he filed his own legal documents in June 2021 where he is seeking joint legal custody.

Moore told Andy Cohen in May 2022: "Emotions are really high, Andy, and I've never been through a divorce.

"I've never had a separation. I've never had a child with anyone, so all of these things are new for me."

Speaking about the custody battle, Moore said: "I had to do what was best for Brooklyn for right now, because I am her primary custodial parent."
