Atkins filed for divorce when Tammy called the police when he came home drunk. Rodney allegedly assaulted Tammy and had even tried to kill her with a pillow. Police immediately came to their house and arrested Rodney, who was charged with domestic assault. However, Atkins insisted that he didn’t try to suffocate his ex-wife. After three hours of being detained, Rodney was released on a $2,500 bail.

Well, it was indeed hard for those two to separate, but at the same time, it could have been more difficult had they stayed together. Nevertheless, Rodney and Tammy are blissfully living in their own worlds.
