Joey Lawrence Accused of Cheating on Wife Samantha Cope Before Breakup

As a long-time fan of Joey Lawrence‘s work, it’s always heartbreaking to see such personal struggles unfold. Having followed his career since the days of Blossom, I can’t help but feel a sense of disappointment and sadness at this turn of events. It seems that life, like a scripted sitcom, often takes unexpected twists and turns, even for our favorite characters.


Joey Lawrence‘s divorce just got complicated.

A former student at Blossom is alleged to have been unfaithful to his separated wife, Samantha Cope, with Melina Alves from the movie “Socked in for Christmas,” as suggested by legal records acquired by TopMob News on August 22nd.

In a recent divorce filing made in New Jersey, an attorney representing Alves’ former spouse, Edward Rider, claimed that Lawrence and the actress were unfaithful to each other not just once, but also on multiple occasions in California, as well as at various other locations.

TopMob News has attempted to get a response from the representatives of Lawrence, Cope, and Alves regarding the matter, yet we haven’t received any feedback so far. The legal representative for the Rider declined to make a statement when approached about the accusations.

As a lifestyle advisor, I find myself compelled to address recent rumors surrounding the marital life of Lawrence. Just a short while ago, his spouse, Cope, initiated divorce proceedings in the bustling city of Los Angeles, marking an end to their two-year union that was sealed in the beautiful state of California in 2022.

According to a report published by TopMob News on August 21st, the actress from ‘Insecure’ stated their separation date as June 7th in her filing documents, citing “insurmountable disagreements” as the cause of their split.

Instead of asking for spousal maintenance, she sought the court’s decision to award her sole physical custody over their 19-month-old child, Dylan.

According to her parenting plan proposal, Samantha will be granted full physical custody of Dylan, with visitation rights for Joe at Samantha’s discretion. When Dylan turns three or older, Joe may opt to take Dylan for two nights at his home location, provided he is not working and can manage arranging visits appropriately.

As a lifestyle expert, I found it necessary to discuss with my costar, Lawrence, regarding temporary restrictions on visits with Dylan – our shared little one from the 2021 Lifetime thriller “My Husband’s Secret Brother.” These limitations are intended for longer durations until she matures enough to express her preferences and all parties can mutually agree and ensure a suitable arrangement.

According to the document, it’s essential that he is free during her entire stay since she is still a minor. Moreover, it states that their daughter should not interact with anyone outside the family circle unless Samantha consents to it when she’s with Joe.

Lawrence has been married three times. Previously, he was wed to Michelle Vella and Chadie Yawn-Nelson. With the latter two, he has daughters Charleston (age 18) and Liberty (age 14).
