Amber Rose has announced her decision to divorce Dwight Howard after just six months of marriage. Documents reveal that the rapper, who is also known as Amy Luciani, filed for divorce on July 1, citing that their marriage is “irretrievably broken” with no hopes for reconciliation.
In her filing, Rose has requested alimony and seeks an equitable division of their marital assets. She later confirmed the split in a statement, expressing confusion over how the news became public and requesting privacy during this difficult time.
Howard and Rose publicly acknowledged their relationship in December of the previous year, shortly before announcing their engagement. Howard presented Rose with a substantial diamond ring, a moment she reflected on with gratitude. However, just months after their wedding in January, the couple is now parting ways.
The former NBA star, who has had a prominent career with the Lakers among other teams, has five children by different women, a detail which adds to the complexity of his personal life. Rose’s filing comes in the wake of a tumultuous year for Howard, including a civil lawsuit alleging sexual assault against him that was ultimately dismissed.
While the end of their brief marriage marks a challenging period for both, it serves as a reminder of the unpredictable nature of relationships, particularly in the public eye. Fans can only hope for an amicable resolution as both parties navigate this transition.
