American professional basketball player and rapper, LiAngelo Robert Ball, also known by his stage names G3 and GELO, has filed for divorce from his wife, Rashida Nicole, just days after she publicly revealed that she is pregnant with their child.
According to court records obtained by TMZ Sports, the Charlotte Hornets shooting guard filed for divorce on July 3.
The filing comes as a surprise to many fans, especially those who believed he was still romantically linked to reality star Nikki Baby.
However, sources confirm that Li’Angelo and Nikki had parted ways some time ago, following the birth of their child, and had chosen not to continue their relationship.
Although the exact date of Li’Angelo and Rashida Nicole’s marriage remains unclear, videos from as far back as February show the couple exiting a courthouse dressed in all white, a moment that many now believe marked their wedding day.
The timing of the divorce filing has raised eyebrows across social media, given the fact that Rashida had only recently announced her pregnancy. Some speculate that the marriage may have been short-lived, while others point to ongoing relationship tensions that may have remained under wraps.
As of now, neither Li’Angelo Ball nor Rashida Nicole has publicly commented on the divorce.
