Sherra Wright Robinson's Bio:
Sherra, who is 46 in age, is supposedly living in California now, after moving to Texas in 2015. Sherra and Lorenzen were married for 13 years before ending their marriage in divorce in February 2010, months before the death of Lorenzen. The reason for their divorce was cited to be 'unfaithfulness and domestic abuse.'
Sherra, who shared seven children, four sons, Lorenzen Wright Jr., Lawson Wright, Twins- Shamar and Lamar Wright, and three daughters, Sofia, late Sierra (died of SIDS in 2003) and Loren Wright with ex-husband Lorenzen, received $1 million from his life insurance policy.
The commercial appeal reported that Sherra, in 2014, agreed to a settlement in a court dispute over how she spent the insurance money, which was meant to benefit their six children.
