(TMZ) Jonathan Arthur "Chico" DeBarge (from DeBarge) has filed for divorce ... TMZ has learned.Chico filed the papers in L.A. County Superior Court against his wife Andrea DeBarge, citing "irreconcilable differences."
According to the docs, the couple was married in 1996 and separated in 2005. It's unclear why the divorce took so long.
They have four children -- but here's the interesting part ... Chico wants NO custody whatsoever, simply asking for visitation rights.
