NBA failure LiAngelo Ball files for divorce from influencer wife just days after she announced pregnancy

Failed NBA star LiAngelo Ball has reportedly filed for divorce from his influencer wife just days after she announced her pregnancy.

According to court documents obtained by TMZ, Ball requested the split from Rashida Nicole at a Southern California courthouse on June 15th.

The documents also showed that they only began their marriage on March 24th. 

The timing of the news has come as a shock to fans given that fact that, just one week prior, Nicole revealed that her and Ball were expecting a child.

Ball commented a trio of emojis including a lock and key – which led many fans to believe that the couple were on a steady path together. 

However, court documents now show that Ball cited ‘irreconcilable differences’ between the two when he filed for their separation.

It serves as the second shock breakup regarding Ball. At the start of the year, the mother of his other children, Nikki Mudarris, claimed he’d walked out on their family. 

In a post on her Instagram at the time, Mudarris wrote: ‘We spent 3 1/2 years together, and last week he decided to walk out on his kids and tell me he got someone else pregnant’. It is believed that she was referring to Nicole. 

Announcing her pregnancy, just seven days before Ball filed for divorce, Nicole wrote in a post on Instagram: ‘Wish I had all the right words to describe this journey, but I guess if I had to define it, all I can truly say is: I’m grateful, terrified, anxious, nauseous, HANGRY. 

‘As a teen mom, I was always hesitant about going thru pregnancy and parenthood again. (Iykyk) I want to thank my daughter for being here for me during this process, always demonstrating unconditional LOVE & reᴀssuring me that, ‘Everything is alright!’ And for now…I choose to protect my peace and this beautiful energy. 

At the start of the year, Ball scored a mᴀssive record deal after his song ‘Tweaker’ become a viral sensation across the US. 

Ball inked a deal with Def Jam and Universal Music Group for a guaranteed $8million – with the deal potentially rising to $13million.

Additionally, Ball was given his own label –  Born2Ball Music Group – and own all of his music.

Just one day before news of the divorce broke, Ball was seen on stream with popular internet star Kai Cenat where he appeared relaxed and upbeat.
