In a decisive move, Andrew Timothy Fondow, residing in St. Louis, MO., and Amanda Marie Fondow of St. Louis, MO., officially filed for divorce. The couple, wedded on June 7, 2008, shares the care of two young children, Jon Paul Benjamin Fondow (age 5) and Evangeline Grace Fondow (age 3). The filing, dated September 14, 2023, cites irreconcilable differences as the cause for the dissolution, refraining from apportioning blame.

Andrew’s petition outlines a series of prayers, including the dissolution of their marriage, joint legal and physical custody of their minor children, and an equitable division of marital assets and debts. Notably, he seeks child support retroactive to the filing but refrains from requesting maintenance. Legal representation is provided by Charles Maas from Davis, Maas & Beach, LLC.

The document underscores the mutual self-sufficiency of both parties, highlighting their capability to cover legal costs without financial assistance from one another. While debts, marital, and non-marital properties are acknowledged, the filing does not expound on the desired resolutions for these matters. This legal battle in the City of St. Louis illuminates the complexities of marital dissolution, impacting not only the couple but also the welfare of their young children.
