The Real Reason Tracy Morgan Divorced His First Wife, Sabina Morgan

As for a way Tracy Morgan met Sabina Morgan, he shared a candid anecdote with The New Yorker, noting how he saw "this bomb-a** chick [Sabina] on a pay phone" while striking out at Yankee Stadium at some point. Sabina was four years older than Tracy and had two children from a previous courting at the time. The couple ended up having a child of their very own, named Tracy Jr., and Tracy adopted Sabina's two kids, in keeping with the outlet.

Sabina was once an adamant supporter of Tracy's stand-up comedy. "I've got you, but you've got to keep at this no matter how hard it gets," she instructed him, in step with The New Yorker.

Unfortunately, Tracy struggled with a drinking drawback, and this supposedly was too much for Sabina to take care of. "I started to even hurt people that I love," the actor relayed to Travis Smiley in 2010, consistent with CNN. The quote came 12 months after Tracy and Sabina divorced in 2009, although according to the New York Daily News, they'd separated eight years before that. 

Tragically, Sabina died of cancer in 2016, a sorrow that still motivates Tracy. "My ex-wife passed away from cancer three years ago, so when I go on that stage, that will be for my ex-wife," he told Entertainment Weekly in 2019 about hosting the ESPY Awards in her honor. "That will be for my kids."
