“Substantial Disparity”: Brittney Griner’s Estranged Wife Reveals Thoughts Over Financial Support Following Divorce
Cherelle Griner says a large income gap leaves her unable to meet monthly needs as she asks for joint legal custody and support.
- Cherelle Griner responded to WNBA star Brittney Griner's divorce petition, requesting financial support due to a "substantial disparity" between their incomes as the case enters the money-and-custody phase following their July 24, 2026 separation.
- After eight years of marriage, Cherelle noted the relationship is "irretrievably broken with no hope for reconciliation," a development following her high-profile advocacy during Brittney's detention in Russia.
- Regarding the couple's child, Bash Griner, Cherelle is requesting joint legal custody while asking the court to determine physical custody and parenting time based on the child's best interests.
- Cherelle argues the income gap leaves her "unable to meet her reasonable financial needs on a monthly basis without continued support," positioning financial stability as central to the proceedings.
- The court must now determine the division of assets and custody arrangements as the legal process advances, following the couple's separation earlier this summer.
