Connecticut Sun center Brittney Griner filed for divorce from her wife, Cherelle, in Fulton County on Thursday, court records show.
Brittney, 35, cited the marriage as “irretrievably broken” and listed the date of separation as July 24, per the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
They married in June 2019 after meeting as students at Baylor University — where Brittney helped the Bears win a NCAA national championship in 2012, completing a historic 40–0 undefeated season.
Cherelle, a lawyer, publicly fought for Brittney’s release after she was taken into custody by Russian officials for carrying a vape pen containing hash oil in 2022.
The pair share a 2-year-old son, Bash, born in July 2024.
Griner was previously married to former WNBA player Glory Johnson.
