LiAngelo Ball filed for divorce from Rashida Nicole one week after she announced she was pregnant with the couple’s child, according to court documents obtained by TMZ.
The “Tweaker” rapper listed “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the split, and June 15 is listed as their separation date.
Ball and Nicole married on March 24, 2025, as stated in the documents, which were filed at a Southern California courthouse on July 3.
The former NBA player is asking for joint custody and visitation, and to terminate spousal support for both parties.
Ball and Nicole, who did publicly reveal they tied the knot, have yet to address the divorce news.
It comes days after Nicole announced she’s pregnant with the couple’s first child.
“New beginnings,” she wrote on Instagram, including a series of snapshots of her gazing at her belly in a white dress. “Wish I had all the right words to describe this journey, but I guess if I had to define it, all I can truly say is: I’m grateful, terrified, anxious, nauseous, HANGRY 😂 all of thee above.
“As a teen mom, I was always hesitant about going thru pregnancy and parenthood again. (Iykyk) I want to thank my daughter for being here for me during this process, always demonstrating unconditional LOVE & reassuring me that, “Everything is alright!” And for now…I choose to protect my peace and this beautiful energy.”
Nicole has a daughter from a previous relationship.
Ball liked the post and left a heart emoji with a lock and key in the comments.
The pair previously attended the BET Awards and posed for photos together on the red carpet on June 9 in Los Angeles.
LiAngelo’s brother, Cavaliers guard Lonzo Ball, also attended the event.
LiAngelo has two kids with his ex, Nikki Mudarris, who claimed he left her shortly after she gave birth to their second child, LaNiyah Nicole Ball, in December.
The former NBA G League player and the “Love & Hip-Hop: Hollywood” star welcomed son LaVelo Anthony Ball in July 2023.
