Reavis and Huy Van Tran were married on July 15, 2000, in Osage Beach, Missouri, their union recorded in Camden County. Over time, geography and circumstance pulled them apart. Reavis has been living in Sarasota County, Florida, while Tran resides in Jackson County, Missouri. The couple separated on or about March 21, 2021. They have no unemancipated children of the marriage, and Reavis is not pregnant.
On January 20, 2026, Reavis filed a petition for dissolution of marriage in the Circuit Court of Jackson County, Missouri, at Kansas City. In her filing, she states that the marriage is irretrievably broken, with no reasonable likelihood of preservation.
Represented by attorney Christopher C. Fink of Cornerstone Law Firm, Reavis asks the court to dissolve the marriage and to deny maintenance to both parties, asserting that each is able-bodied and capable of self-support. The petition further requests that any marital settlement agreement reached by the parties be approved, or, if none exists, that marital property and debts be divided in a fair and equitable manner. Each party’s non-marital assets are to be set aside to their respective owners.
Reavis also seeks an order directing Tran to pay attorney fees and costs should his actions cause unnecessary expense, along with any other relief the court deems just and proper.
January often arrives with quiet vows of renewal, but for Trina N. Reavis, the year opened with a formal reckoning instead. As winter settled in, she turned to the court not to begin again, but to deliberately close a chapter that had begun more than two decades earlier.
