"Jason Aldean has filed for divorce from his wife Jessica Ussery. Aldean filed documents in Williamson County, Tennessee on Friday (April 26), according to People.  The papers cite &amp;quot;irreconcilable differences&amp;quot; as the reason for the split and the news comes shortly after Aldean&amp;#039;s spokesperson confirmed that the couple were dealing with relationship issues. The rep said last week: &amp;quot;I can confirm that Jason and his wife are having problems, but there is nothing more to share at this time. It&amp;#039;s a private family matter, and we hope everyone will respect that he would like to keep it that way.&amp;quot; The problems in Aldean&amp;#039;s relationship are rumoured to stem from an incident last year in which he was photographed embracing American Idol contestant Brittany Kerr, though the singer later claimed that the couple were &amp;quot;fine&amp;quot;. Aldean and Ussery, who have been married for 12 years, are parents to daughters Keeley, 10, and Kendyl, 5.
