    Back in January, Janet Jackson, 50, gave birth to her first child, Eissa - which was obviously joyous news for the iconic singer.

    However, it seems that just months after her family's newest addition, Janet is set to separate from her third husband Wissam al-Mana.

    She married the Qatari billionaire back in 2012 and they have since enjoyed a low-key life in London.

    According to reports, Janet had been struggling with how private and quiet he wanted their lives to be. It's been said that the musician felt her social life and her career were dwindling and this was causing her to worry that she was losing her fan base.

    Neither party are yet to comment but this will be Janet's third divorce if it does go through, having been married to singer James Debarge back in the 1980s and musician, dancer and music video director René Elizondo Jr between 1991-2000.
