Televangelist Bynum Dumps Beatdown Bishop

The holy war –- the one between televangelist Juanita Bynum and her estranged bishop husband Thomas Weeks III – is finally over, with Bynum agreeing to divorce Weeks. Praise the Lawd!

It's almost a year since Weeks delivered an almighty beatdown to Bynum in the parking lot of an Atlanta hotel after the couple met to work out their issues. Weeks pleaded guilty back in March to aggravated assault, and was sentenced to probation and community service.

Despite his plea, Weeks is still asking for Bynum pay for his lawyer fees. The holy couple has been married since 2002.
