This is such a sad and embarrassing situation. L.A. Lakers player, Matt Barnes was arrested yesterday for domestic violence. I'm sure you all remember these two from the first season of Shaunie O'Neal's
Basketball Wives. Matt and his fiance, Gloria Govan
played the only "happy" couple on the show. They were engaged to be married earlier this year but when it came close to the wedding date, Matt called a time out. Although the wedding was on hold, Gloria made sure to let everyone know that they were STILL happy and most importantly STILL together. While they may have still been together, I'm not sure about the happy part. Check out what
CNN said about the domestic incident that took place at the couples home in Sacramento.
“When deputies arrived, they made contact with 30-year-old Matt Kelly Barnes and the adult female who he lived with and with whom he had a dating relationship,” the sheriff’s department said in a statement. “While both parties had visible injuries, Barnes was determined to be the primary aggressor and taken into custody.”
He was booked on felony charges of domestic violence and maliciously obstructing the use of a telephone line. He posted a $50,000 bond and was released from jail Wednesday evening, the sheriff’s department said.
So, basically dude snatched out the phone lines so she couldn't call for help? That's mean, LOL! No word on if the woman in the incident was actually Gloria. During the show, they were living together so I can only guess that it may have been her. Anywho, I wonder what caused all of this? If it turns out it's because of another woman (or was another woman) I know PLENTY of folks that will probably get a kick out of that, SMH. I hope everything works out for the two of them. Even if they decide not to be together, they have children so they have to be able to communicate on some level (without throwing bows).
