Split after five years of marriage Chance and Kristen parted ways in 2024 after being married for five years. He shared that he's currently in a 'transition' period and still learning and growing.

Coming from a close-knit family, he believes it's important for him, Kristen, and their families to stay connected and get along well. Separation from Kristen Corley Chance revealed that even though they're separated, he and Kristen still travel together, but their relationship has a very different dynamic now. From deep love to divorce The two first met at the age of nine and tied the knot in 2019. They have two daughters, Kensli (9) and Marlie (5). Chance and Kristen shared a strong bond, but five years into their marriage, they faced challenges they couldn't overcome. This eventually led to what Chance describes as an 'amicable' divorce. A Difficult Journey Speaking on the New Rory & Mal podcast, Chance admitted, "I ain't gonna act like it's not tough. I ain't gonna act like it's perfect and we shook hands and dipped. It's weird. I think the toughness is that it's a reality. I think that's the toughest part. You might feel like you're over it, and you're not over it. Or you might be used to a certain pattern of operating, and because it doesn't work like that, you have to allow yourself grace to deal with that and operate in reality.

He compared it to a Venn diagram, where they are both linked through the same centre, their kids. While admitting they may not be the most emotionally mature people, he said they share the understanding that helps them avoid letting conflicts go too far. He added that he's grateful to have a co-parent who shares this mindset. Chance The Rapper is such a family man!
