Pistons guard Malik Beasley has filed for divorce from Montana Yao in Wayne County Circuit Court in Michigan on Wednesday, his attorney Steve Haney Sr. confirmed to The Post.
Yao, 27, filed for separation from Beasley for a second time in Los Angeles on March 4, one day before their fifth wedding anniversary, and cited “irreconcilable differences,” according to People.
Beasley, 28, filed his legal documents in the state of Michigan, which is the proper forum and venue for the dissolution of their marriage, Haney said.
The former first-round draft pick is dating model and gamer Natalia Garibotto, who appeared to reveal their relationship on social media on Wednesday.
Garibotto posted a snapshot of the two holding hands while leaving the Kaseya Center in Miami after Detroit beat the Heat 116-113.
Beasley and Yao share two children, a son, Makai, 2, and a daughter, Mia born in November 2022.
Yao filed for divorce in December 2020, weeks after Beasley was seen holding hands with Larsa Pippen.
At the time, Yao said on social media that she was blindsided by the public images of the pair together in Miami.
In May 2021, Beasley, then with the Timberwolves, issued a public apology to Yao on Instagram, and they reconciled.
It’s unclear exactly when Beasley and Garibotto got together.
Yao attended one of Beasley’s games when he played for the Bucks in January 2024.
Back on the court, Beasley is averaging 16.2 points in 70 games for the Pistons this season.
The Pistons (39-31) visit the Mavericks (33-37) on Friday night in Dallas.
