Who is Kelsey Plum's ex-husband, Darren Waller? The newly retired NFL star beat addiction and made a cringey music video about his ex-wife – but why did he risk incurring the wrath

Since Darren Waller cheated on his wife Kelsey Plum following her gorgeous Skims photo shoot, he is currently the target of vicious online trolling. Less than a year after getting married, the couple filed for divorce last month.

Just months after the firm was criticized for not including female athletes in the previous campaign, Kim Kardashian’s shapewear brand SKIMS has partnered with the Women’s National Basketball Association (WNBA), with basketball players Candace Parker, Cameron Brink, and Kelsey Plum stripping down to their underwear for a seductive new commercial.

Just in time for the start of the season, SKIMS declared on Monday morning that it has joined the Women’s National Basketball Association as its “official underwear partner.”

To celebrate the launch of the collaboration, a slew of basketball players showed off their toned physiques by posing in pieces from the clothing company’s Fits Everybody underwear collection.

Las Vegas Aces superstar Kelsey Plum made the most noise with her pictures, and in doing so, Darren Waller was brought up.

In addition to Kelsey Plum, the other athletes flaunted their washboard abs by donning strapless bandeaus in coordinating hues with matching underwear.

Kelsey Plum and Darren Waller File for Divorce After 1 Year of Marriage

WNBA champion Kelsey Plum and NFL tight end Darren Waller filed for divorce after one year of marriage. In April, the WNBA star and New York Giants tight end filed a joint petition for divorce in Clark County, Nevada.

Just after the filing, Plum shared a heartbreaking message on social media. “I’m devastated. I walked through fire for that man, but now I see it’s time to go,” she wrote on Instagram Stories.

“God has given me an incredible life, and I’m truly so grateful for the profound love from my family and friends,” the Las Vegas Aces star continued.

“One day, I’ll share my story; today is not that day. Thank you for the grace to process my pain, to forgive and move forward. Today and everyday I will continue to choose joy. Much love, KP.”

Waller, a former player for the Las Vegas Raiders, and Plum, a two-time WNBA champion with the Aces, started dating. It is said that they dated for almost a year prior to getting married on March 4, 2023.

The Las Vegas Review-Journal claims that on January 22, 2023, Plum and Waller submitted an application for a marriage license.

Waller was traded to the New York Giants shortly after their marriage. Many believed former head coach Josh McDaniels did this on purpose since he wasn’t invited to the wedding.
