MEMORANDUM OPINION
M. BRUCE McCULLOUGH, Bankruptcy Judge.
Charles Zebley, the Chapter 7 Trustee for the instant debtor (hereafter "the Trustee"), objects to the exemption of residential realty by such debtor, David Allen Davis (hereafter "the Debtor"). The Court shall overrule such exemption objection.

STATEMENT OF FACTS
The Debtor has exempted realty that, as of the date that he filed for bankruptcy (i.e., June 19, 2006), constituted his residence (hereafter "the Residence"). The Debtor acquired the Residence with his wife as tenants by the entirety. The Debtor exempts the Residence pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 522(b)(3)(B), which statutory provision allows a debtor to exempt entireties property so held immediately prior to the commencement of a bankruptcy case to the extent that it is exempt from process under applicable nonbankruptcy law, see 11 U.S.C.A. § 522(B)(3)(B) (West 2006).
The Trustee objects to such exemption of the Residence by the Debtor. The basis for the Trustee's exemption objection is (a) that, as of the date of the Debtor's bankruptcy petition filing, a divorce action was pending between the Debtor and his wife, (b) that the Residence consequently was then held in custodia legis by the Pennsylvania state court that presides over the divorce action, (c) that the filing of such divorce action, according to the Trustee, immediately terminated the tenancy by the entirety that had existed between the Debtor and his wife, and (d) that the Debtor, according to the Trustee, consequently did not, as of June 19, 2006, own the Residence with his wife as tenants by the entirety. The Debtor contests such exemption objection by the Trustee, arguing instead that (a) a tenancy by the entirety, as a matter of law, is not fractured until the formal entry of a divorce decree by the relevant court, and (b) a divorce decree has yet to be entered between himself and *387 his wife, let alone one dated prior to June 19, 2006.
The Court held a hearing on the Trustee's exemption objection on September 19, 2006. For the reasons set forth below, the Court overrules the Trustee's exemption objection, which means that the Debtor may exempt the Residence in the fashion that he has, that is pursuant to § 522(b)(3)(B).

DISCUSSION
The formal argument by the Trustee in support of his exemption objection, that is that the filing of the aforementioned divorce action terminated the tenancy by the entirety between the Debtor and his wife so that, as of the date of the Debtor's bankruptcy petition filing, the Residence no longer constituted entireties property that could be exempted in bankruptcy via § 522(b)(3)(B), is resolved easily enough. "A tenancy by the entirety is `severed' upon entry of the divorce decree,", In re Denillo, 309 B.R. 866, 871 (Bankr.W.D.Pa.2004) (citing Keystone Savings Association v. Kitsock, 429 Pa.Super. 561, 633 A.2d 165, 168 (1993)), not at some point prior to the entry of such decree such as, for instance, when a divorce action is first commenced; such is the case regardless of the fact that property subject to a tenancy by the entirety is held in custodia legis upon the commencement of a divorce action. Because a divorce decree between the Debtor and his wife has yet to be handed down by the relevant state court, the tenancy by the entirety between the Debtor and his wife necessarily existed as of the date upon which he filed for bankruptcy, thereby compelling a holding by this Court that the Residence, as of such date, constituted entireties property that the Debtor may exempt via § 522(b)(3)(B).
Having dispensed with the formal argument made by the Trustee, the Court feels obligated to address an additional argument perhaps implicitly made by the Trustee in the course of his exemption objection. The Trustee points out that the Debtor, by virtue of his right to equitable distribution via the pending divorce action between him and his wife (which right, because it existed as of June 19, 2006, constitutes property of the Debtor's bankruptcy estate), may ultimately, at some future date, receive a distribution of the Residence titled then in a fashion that will necessarily be other than by tenancy by the entirety. By so arguing, the Trustee raises the issue of whether such future distribution of the Residence, which distribution would also arguably result in the receipt of property by the Debtor that constitutes bankruptcy estate property via 11 U.S.C. § 541(a)(5) & (6),[1] would operate to nullify the Debtor's earlier exemption of the Residence as entireties property via § 522(b)(3)(B). The Court resolves such issue in the negative and supports such decision by holding, in turn, that (a) the Debtor, by virtue of any future equitable distribution of the Residence in his favor, would thereby only obtain property that (i) he already owned and has owned as of *388 June 19, 2006 (i.e., the Debtor owned the whole, rather than just some part, of the Residence on June 19, 2006, by virtue of titling such ownership as tenants by the entirety), (ii) thus already became property of his bankruptcy estate on June 19, 2006, and (iii) he has already successfully exempted from such bankruptcy estate via § 522(b)(3)(B), see In re Martin, 269 B.R. 119, 122 (Bankr.M.D.Pa.2001) (similar holding therein with respect to post-petition distribution by way of divorce settlement of property held as tenants by the entirety pre-petition, pre-divorce, and which had already been successfully exempted as entireties property; also noting the uniqueness of entireties property, the whole of which is held by a debtor prior to any family court distribution), (b) the application of § 541(a)(5) & (6) to any such future equitable distribution to the Debtor would thus not result in the receipt of new or additional property by either the Debtor or, consequently, the Debtor's bankruptcy estate and the Trustee, see Id., and (c) any future post-petition change in the manner in which the Residence might be titled in the Debtor's name would not, in any event,, operate to negate the Debtor's present exemption of the Residence via § 522(b)(3)(B), see Id. at 122-23 ("`a postpetition change in the character of property [(i.e., how such property is titled) ] properly claimed as exempt will not change the [exempt] status of that property," particularly given that (a) "exemptions are determined as of the date of filing [for bankruptcy]," (b) "the exemption section of the [Bankruptcy C]ode [(i.e., § 522)] trumps that section [thereof] describing the parameters of property of the estate [(i.e., § 541, including, in particular, § 541(a)(5) & (6))]," and (c) 11 U.S.C. § 522(c) provides that "`property exempted under this section [(i.e., § 522)] is not liable during or after the case for any [pre-petition] debt of the debtor,'" which means that property properly exempted by a debtor can never be obtained by a bankruptcy trustee for the benefit of pre-petition creditors at some point subsequent to such exemption regardless of, for instance, a subsequent change in the fashion in which title to such property is held by such debtor).

CONCLUSION
In light of the foregoing analysis, the Court overrules the Trustee's exemption objection, which means that the Debtor may exempt the Residence pursuant to § 522(b)(3)(B).
An appropriate order will be entered.
