Elijah Blue Allman's Wife Reveals Why She Dismissed Divorce for 2nd Time

Marieangela King is opening up about her decision to remain married to husband Elijah Blue Allman after previously filing for divorce a second time - noting his ongoing conservatorship battle has played a role in her divorce dismissal.

"Elijah and I have experienced challenges within our marriage, many of which were related to his struggles with substance abuse, mental health issues, and the consequences that fall out," King, 38, explained in a declaration filed on June 22 with a Los Angeles court obtained by Us Weekly. "Following his [2025] arrest, I filed a petition for dissolution of marriage. At that time, I was emotionally exhausted, overwhelmed, and believed separation was necessary."

King - who is asking the court to be included in the legal proceedings in connection with the petition filed for permanent financial conservatorship - noted that after the second divorce was filed in 2025, she has since changed her mind as "circumstances have changed" between the pair. (King's request for the divorce to be dismissed was granted on June 8, according to People.)

Amid their separation, Elijah's mother, Cher, also filed a second conservatorship petition in April for her son, after he was arrested in February and March following two separate incidents in New Hampshire at a private boarding school and residential home and is facing charges including simple assault, criminal trespassing, criminal threatening, and burglary.

"Elijah's placement through the New Hampshire Court system into a structured treatment environment, and my continued concern for his well-being caused me to reconsider the dissolution proceedings," King wrote in June, referring to her husband's current hospital stay following back-to-back arrests in early 2025.

King, who previously filed for divorce in 2021 before dismissing the case in 2024, noted that upon "further reflection and communication regarding his condition and recovery, I determined that I did not wish to dissolve our marriage."

She explained her reason for ultimately deciding to dismiss the second divorce request, writing, "I made Elijah a promise when I married him in 2013 that I would be there for him through sickness and in health, which is why I have fully dismissed my divorce petition without prejudice."

Elijah, the son of the late Gregg Allman and Cher, 80, is someone that King says she cares "deeply" about and wants to help "receive any treatment, structure, support, and professional assistance that he genuinely needs," according to the filing.

"My position is not based upon denial of his past struggles," she wrote. "Rather, my position is based upon my belief, the decisions regarding his future should be made with a complete understanding of his current circumstances, treatment, support system, and wishes."

King has been married to Elijah, 49, since December 2013. For the duration of their marriage, the couple have weathered many storms, including a public split in 2020 after which King filed for divorce for the first time the following year.

The pair found their way back together in January 2024 when Elijah filed to dismiss the case "without prejudice," which was granted the following month.

King filed for divorce a second time in April 2025, filing irreconcilable differences, around the same time her famous mother-in-law requested the conservatorship for Elijah.

Cher's first conservatorship request was denied in 2023, but she argued in April that fiduciary Jason Rubin take charge of her son's finances amid his recent ups and downs legally and mentally. A judge denied Cher's second conservatorship request on April 24.

That same month, King submitted her own declaration with the court, asking a judge to step in to help her receive her alleged "existing court-ordered support that has not been paid" while Elijah was in the hospital.

"I am not taking an adversarial position against him personally," King argued in the docs, obtained exclusively by Us. "I am asking the court to consider available resources, including the estate, to satisfy existing obligations during a time when he is not able to manage these matters himself."

King claimed that she needed the court's assistance in getting the trustee of Elijah's estate, Michael Lehman, to make direct payments to her amid his fluctuating health concerns. (King alleged at the time that Elijah was "receiving medical care" at the hospital following his arrests this year.)

Elijah, for his part, filed for a reduction in his spousal support payments in May, claiming that his mother cut off his financial support, according to People.

Elijah claimed in the court documents that he was no longer receiving "recurring gift income" from Cher. Instead, he alleged he was getting "only $10,000 per month from his father's trust."

He further claimed that without the money from Cher, Elijah's income totalled $6,790 after taxes, arguing in the filing that King allegedly has "made no efforts to become self-supporting" since the former couple first separated in 2021.

King's latest declaration appears to be focused on his conservatorship case and supporting Elijah in obtaining the help he needs - in addition to receiving more money from his trust on both of their behalfs.

"As Elijah's spouse, I am proposing a year plan," she wrote in the June filing. "This recovery plan consists of a fully staffed medical team from a US certified reputable, dual diagnostic sober living. I've already initiated the process by running our insurance by the administration so that Elijah has a smooth transition upon his release in [New Hampshire]."

King explained, "I believe with a structured one year plan in place and the funds allocated toward it, Elijah stands the best chance for a [full] recovery. The goal is to get Elijah into a functional routine."

She further claimed that it's "extremely false and misleading to insinuate that Elijah has the ability to empty or deplete either of the trusts in question," alleging that her spouse "does not have direct access to any of these trusts."

King asked the court that she be able to work with the trustee to provide structured payments while Elijah is in "temporary remission," noting that he "deserves every opportunity to recover, participate, meaningfully incisions affecting his life, and maintain the greatest degree of independence that can safely be achieved under the circumstances."
