Eight-time NBA All-Star Dwight Howard has officially filed for divorce from his wife, professional basketball player Te’a Cooper (referred to in recent legal filings as Amy Luciana Howard), after just over one year of marriage. The legal filing, submitted in Georgia, cites “irretrievable breakdown” as the cause for the split, signaling the end of one of the sports world’s most private high-profile unions.

The couple, who secretly wed in a private ceremony in late 2024, had largely kept their relationship out of the tabloid spotlight compared to Howard’s previous public associations. While fans initially celebrated the union between the three-time Defensive Player of the Year and the standout WNBA guard, rumors of a rift began to surface in early 2026 when the pair stopped appearing together at public events and deleted several photos of one another from their respective social media accounts.

According to the court documents, Howard, 40, and Cooper, 28, have been living “in a state of separation” for several months prior to the formal filing. The petition indicates that there are no minor children shared between the two, which is expected to simplify certain aspects of the legal proceedings. However, the division of assets remains a focal point, Howard, who earned over $245 million during his extensive NBA career with the Magic, Lakers, and Rockets, reportedly entered the marriage with a prenuptial agreement in place to protect his various business interests and real estate holdings.

Sources close to the center suggest that the pressures of their demanding athletic schedules played a significant role in the dissolution of the marriage. “Both Dwight and Te’a are incredibly driven individuals with massive careers,” a source told People. “Between his international commitments and her training, the distance simply became an insurmountable hurdle.”

As the news of the filing broke on Tuesday morning, neither Howard nor Cooper has issued a direct public statement. Howard’s legal team released a brief note asking for “privacy and respect for both parties during this personal transition.” The case is expected to move through the Fulton County Superior Court over the coming months. For Howard, this marks another chapter in a transitional year that has seen him move further away from his professional playing days and deeper into his role as a sports analyst and philanthropist.

ak Prescott and his fiancee, Sarah Jane Ramos, have called off their wedding roughly a month before it was scheduled to take place.

Things between Prescott and Ramos, who share two children together, had been rocky for a while. It all boiled over during a joint bachelor/bachelorette party in The Bahamas.

"We're told the relationship had been rocky behind the scenes for months .. but things came to a head with a blowup argument at their joint
bachelor and bachelorette parties in the Bahamas -- and Sarah Jane called it off," TMZ Sports reported.

"The reality is, we're told the relationship is beyond repair ... so the focus will be on coparenting their two kids — ages 2 and nearly 10 months — moving forward."

According to one report, it had to do with the prenuptial agreement. Prescott, 32, has made more than $296 million during his career. He's currently in the middle of a four-year, $240 million contract with the Dallas Cowboys.

Prescott's fiancee reportedly refused to sign the prenuptial agreement that had been proposed by the Cowboys quarterback's attorneys.

"Insiders say the issue came down to the prenuptial agreement," Media Takeout reports.

"Dak’s fiancée reportedly hired her own attorney to review the document, and after weeks of discussions the two sides could not come to terms. One person familiar with the situation told Media Take Out that Dak’s proposed prenup was not particularly aggressive.,” however his fiancée reportedly wanted some security.

“The prenup wasn’t very strict,” the source explained. “Everyone basically kept whatever they had before the marriage. It was pretty
straightforward.”

Days before the breakup was announced, Prescott's fiancee took to her Instagram page, to share a now-telling post.

"I truly believe you can get through anything in life as long as you have really great friends. I love these girls so much," she wrote.

The Cowboys quarterback and his ex-fiancee will now move forward, co-parenting their two children together, to the best of their abilities.
