We interrupt the “problematic Caitlin Clark” discourse to bring you an unrelated WNBA controversy.

Just weeks after opening up about their journey to parenthood, Brittney and Cherelle Griner’s marriage has come to an end.

According to court records obtained by People, the WNBA star filed for divorce from her wife in Fulton County, Georgia, on Thursday, citing that the marriage is “irretrievably broken.”

The filing reportedly states that the couple separated on July 24. Griner is also requesting that the court establish a parenting plan for the couple’s 2-year-old son, Bash, as part of the divorce proceedings.

Neither Brittney nor Cherelle has publicly commented on the split.

The news comes as a surprise to many fans, particularly because the couple had recently been speaking openly about their relationship and the challenges they overcame while building their family.

Griner and Cherelle, an attorney, first met while attending Baylor University, but didn’t begin dating until years later.

They married in 2019 and became one of the WNBA’s most recognizable couples during Griner’s arrest in Russia in 2022.

Throughout Griner’s nearly 10-month imprisonment, Cherelle became the public face of the campaign to secure her wife’s release, regularly appearing in interviews and meeting with government officials to keep attention focused on the case.

Griner was ultimately freed in December 2022 in a high-profile prisoner exchange.

The couple welcomed their son, Bash, in July 2024, with Griner later describing motherhood as one of the most rewarding experiences of her life. Earlier this year, she said that coming home to her son’s smile instantly made even the toughest days better.

As recently as June, Brittney and Cherelle appeared together on the ANDMOM podcast, where they discussed the emotional toll Griner’s detention took on their plans to start a family through IVF.

Cherelle admitted they weren’t sure they were in the right emotional place when they moved forward with the process, while Griner reflected on writing a heartbreaking letter from prison, in which she encouraged her wife to move on if she never made it home. Cherelle refused, remaining committed throughout the ordeal.

That public display of resilience makes the divorce all the more unexpected.

For now, however, the reasons behind the split remain private.

Court documents reportedly cite only the standard legal grounds that the marriage is beyond repair, and neither Griner nor Cherelle has offered any additional explanation.

With a young son now at the center of their lives, attention will likely turn to how the former couple navigates co-parenting as the divorce moves through the legal process.

We will have further updates on this developing story as new information becomes available.

Excited for North West’s upcoming tour?

Maybe rethink that.

The 13-year-old daughter of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West has abruptly called off her upcoming tour dates.

Her first show would have been just days from now. What happened?

Ticketmaster says it’s over (sort of)

This is going to ruin the tour.

On Friday, July 31, TMZ reported that North has “pulled the plug” on a couple of her upcoming tour dates.

Wednesday, August 5, she would have gone on stage for her first performance alongside rapper Molly Santana.

The show was scheduled for Dallas, Texas.

Now, however, Ticketmaster shows that the August 5 show is canceled. And it’s only the first.

Ticketmaster also shows that North’s August 17 performance in Toronto has been canceled.

Previously, there had been a website to promote the “Kimokawaii” tour.

That site appears to be gone — as if it had never existed at all.

Maybe it will return.

Or maybe not. Normally, if the tour is still happening, you make it known.

Is that hope on the horizon?

Interestingly, North and Molly were supposed to perform on August 25 in San Francisco.

That tour is not officially canceled, as of early Friday afternoon.

Ticketmaster still has the two scheduled to perform at “The Midway” venue on that date.

However, anyone looking forward to attending might want to look for word from North … or, dare we say it, from an adult … for added clarity.

At the very least, many folks may consider that performance to be in limbo at present.

Did you know that North has a music career?

Her album came out in May.

North’s famous family has been very supportive. Obviously. Releasing an album and playing concerts at 13 happens if you are a singular talent or if your family is extremely wealthy and supportive.

They’ve shown themselves enjoying her music, or at least seeming to, since the album dropped.

Perhaps an explanation will come soon about what befell the canceled tour dates. And, of course, some clarity about the seemingly not-yet-canceled showing.

Last week, retired Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo was arrested for operating a vehicle while intoxicated (a lesser charge than DUI).

In recent years, Romo has launched a second career as one of the most beloved broadcasters in the world of sports media.

But it looks as though his job at CBS might be under threat in the wake of his recent legal woes.

According to a new report from the New York Post, Romo is officially on leave from the network just weeks before the NFL season is set to begin.

CBS’ first regular season broadcast will take place on September 13, during Week 1 of the NFL season.

Former Pittsburgh Steeler and second-year broadcaster J.J. Watt is currently slated to take Romo’s place in the broadcast booth alongside Jim Nantz.

Romo was returning from the Wisconsin Amateur Championship golf tournament when he was pulled over while traveling south on Interstate 43.

According to a citation, Romo “drove in the marked right distress lane to pass vehicles in lanes 1 and 2 during rush hour traffic” before he “cut across the marked gore.”

Though he told officers that he had had “zero” drinks, he was taken into custody after failing field sobriety tests.

Video of Romo’s arrest has left social media users divided, with some claiming that the former QB did not appear to be intoxicated, while others alleged that he was glassy-eyed and slow to react.

Though clearly baffled at being pulled over, Romo was courteous with police throughout the encounter.

“Because I’m coming from a golf course, you think I’m drunk?” he asked at one point.

In a different citation viewed by the Post, one officer reported that Romo had an “open bottle of an alcoholic beverage” located on the passenger side of his Jeep, and he “refused to take test for intoxication after arrest.”

According to the Milwaukee County District Attorney’s office, the allegations against Romo constitute “a traffic violation and not a criminal charge in Wisconsin.”

The 46-year-old is scheduled for a court hearing on September 21, but is not required to attend. He is facing a total of $1,568.50 in fines.

Romo has yet to publicly comment on the situation, and it’s unclear at this time if he will eventually be reinstated at CBS.

We will have further updates on this developing story as new information becomes available.
