Whew! LaVar Ball had fans expecting sneaker talk and his usual larger-than-life personality, but he instead dropped a personal revelation that completely shifted the conversation. During a casual mukbang interview, the Big Baller Brand founder opened up about a major life change involving his wife, Tina Ball—and let’s just say, many people never saw this coming.

LaVar Ball Drops Shocking Relationship Update

While appearing on streamer N3on’s YouTube channel, Ball revealed that he and his wife, Tina Ball, have officially ended their nearly 30-year marriage. According to LaVar, Tina decided to “go her own way,” and although he didn’t explain what led to the split, he said there’s no animosity between them. “We had our run,” he shared, before adding that he’s already found someone new. The announcement marks the end of one of basketball’s most well-known family partnerships, as the couple married in 1997 and built the Ball family’s empire while raising sons Lonzo, LiAngelo, and LaMelo.

LaVar Gets Real About Life After The Split

Ball also reflected on Tina’s 2017 stroke, saying her health never changed the way he viewed her and that she remained “beautiful” to him throughout her recovery. Despite the breakup, he spoke positively about the decades they spent together, saying he was grateful to have experienced that kind of love. The revelation comes after another challenging chapter for Ball, who underwent the amputation of his right leg in early 2025 following complications from diabetes and has largely stayed out of the spotlight during his recovery.

Ball also added, “Even though she had the stroke, and getting older, she would never be like, ‘Oh man.’ She was always beautiful in my eyes,” he shared. “Until you say, ‘I want to go do something else.’ Now you’re not as beautiful to me again.”

The Comment Section Has Plenty To Say

Roomies wasted no time flooding TSR’s Instagram comment section with their reactions, and opinions were all over the place. While some felt Tina left LaVar after he stood by her through her 2017 stroke and then faced his own health struggles, others pointed to his behavior on their former TV show, ‘Ball in the Family,’ and said they would’ve walked away too. Meanwhile, plenty of commenters weren’t buying the full explanation, saying they believe there’s much more to the story than what’s been shared.

This Instagram user @thebrittcaldwell said, “Haven’t heard her side but I believe her 😂”

Likewise, Instagram user @shaylaaaduran added, “Men don’t tell the full story tho🥴”

And, Instagram user @thetaramorgan commented, “So she’s beautiful only when she’s with you? Did I hear him right?“

Meanwhile, Instagram user @detroit_hairgoddess_____ wrote, “I don’t even got the sound on and he pissing me off😂😂😂”

While Instagram user @yooohypemommy joked, “She swerved right around that corner woooaahhh….yall will never learn 😩🤦🏽‍♀️”

Then Instagram user @nikkibthebrand claimed, “Imagine being married to him for 30 years! Their reality show showed everything there is to know!“

But, Instagram user @ladyrita86 shared, “‘I found somebody else’ told me everything I needed to know. 😂😂”

Lastly, Instagram user @ajahgotjays3.0 said, “She had a stroke and he stayed n built her back to health.. he lost his leg n she left… Fellas pay ATTENTION“

Brittany Mahomes is reflecting on how life has changed since becoming a mom of three to her and husband Patrick Mahomes’ children.

“Being a mom changed so many things in my life and changed how I looked at so many things,” Brittany, 30, told Yahoo Entertainment in an article published on Wednesday, June 24. “It really reshaped and redefined a lot of things in my life.”

She continued, “It’s made me more intentional, more purposeful and, honestly, more motivated to keep going and keep showing my kids that there are no boundaries in front of you. You can achieve anything. You can be a part of anything that you want to. You need to dream big and understand that you have to work hard and do the hard things to do the fun things.”

Brittany explained that she’s now striving to align herself with things that connect to her values and the example she wants to set for her three children.

Brittany Mahomes isn’t shy about sharing the realities of life with three young children. Brittany, the wife of Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, has used her social media platform and recent interviews to open up about postpartum recovery, breast-feeding, screen-time struggles and more. Brittany and Patrick, who married in Hawaii in March 2022, are […]

“I think when you become a mom, you learn to say no to things that aren’t as important and focus on what’s best for your life and your family,” she said.

Brittany and Patrick, 30, became parents when they welcomed daughter Sterling in 2021. The high school sweethearts have since welcomed son Bronze and daughter Golden in 2022 and 2025, respectively.

The pair have since given glimpses of parenthood — and how they balance work with raising their children.

“At the end of the day, my kids are watching me, and I want them to know that I’m working hard,” she told Yahoo!Life in February 2024. “I’m out here doing things as well, because they noticed their dad’s gone all the time. And he’s working hard and doing stuff that he loves. So, I want them to see both of us going out and conquering the world.”

“Everybody sees the game days. They don’t see the day-to-day grind. They don’t see how you have to manage playing football and being a dad and being a husband,” Patrick confessed during a 2023 episode of Netflix’s Quarterback docuseries, which documented the 2022 NFL season.

While reflecting on one of his team’s losses, Patrick shared that the game isn’t what’s paramount in his life.

“It’s football. You’re gonna have highs. You’re gonna have the lows,” he said at the time. “You put so much into this that you want to win, you want to succeed. And you want to win that Super Bowl at the end of the year. But I have to be a dad too. I have to be a husband.”

It’s cowboys and lovers, grifters and thieves. Lust, deceit, heartache, home.

Even though the movie hasn’t been released yet, the buzz around Supergirl is not positive. Part of this may be the behavior of Milly Alcock during the press tour for the movie, in which she has insulted almost every major demographic that would have been interested with outrageous comments and assertions. Part of it might also be that people who’ve seen advanced screenings claim it bears a lot of similarity in plot to Guardians of the Galaxy. Part of it might just be superhero movie fatigue after decades of being swamped by the X-Men, Avengers, and Justice League universes.

One thing that has been universally acclaimed, even by the naysayers, is the appearance of Jason Momoa as Lobo, the anti-hero mercenary bounty hunter from the planet Czarnia. Not only does the actor perfectly look the part, but his delivery reflects the comic book character extremely well. Momoa recently said in interviews that he and the heads of DC Studios, James Gunn and Peter Safran, have met to discuss the character’s future in the cinematic universe.

Three Cheers For Quality Control!!!

“I do not have any interest in making a Lobo PG-13 movie,” Momoa reportedly said. He added that he’d appear as a supporting role in any other DC movie, but a Lobo stand-alone film has to be rated R, according to the actor.

Given that Lobo was originally a villain, and then re-purposed in the 1990s to be a parody of ultra-violent, vigilante Marvel characters like Wolverine and The Punisher, it would be difficult to make a Lobo movie that is rated PG-13, anyway. Lobo bears a lot in common with his comic book mirror, Deadpool (who was likewise originally a villain in his original 1991 introduction), in that he is irreverent, destructive, and rebellious. He is full of sarcastic lines and crude humor that would be too much for a PG-13 movie and trying to tone him down to meet that rating would make the character bland and cartoonish, a pale shade of who he really is.

Momoa’s insistence on an R-rated stand-alone film is therefore a defense of the brand and shows a good understanding of the character he has taken on. It also doesn’t mean we’ll never see Lobo on-screen again. The actor is willing to play the character in any other movie, as long as it doesn’t center around Lobo. It’s understandable why studios may not have wanted Supergirl or other more family-oriented characters to have movies with an R rating, since they are meant as much for the kids as the adults. But Lobo’s appeal is strictly for those kids who grew up reading comics under the shadow of true crusaders like Superman and Batman and, as adults, want a little more flavor to their heroes.

Could Be DC’s Answer To Deadpool

Although Lobo was originally intended to be a parody of the rugged anti-hero, he wound up becoming embraced by fans after his redesign in the 1990s gave him a more biker-oriented look. He became so popular that he was competitor Stan Lee’s favorite DC hero, and while Marvel parodied the character a few times, the comic company never openly mocked him. A Lobo stand-alone film might seem a bit cliché in the wake of so many other characters of his type, but Lobo is the “OG” and Momoa seems ready to carry the character on-screen in a wide variety of projects.

The fact that Momoa seems so perfect for the role is what would elevate a potential Lobo movie into the same popularity as its Marvel rival, the Deadpool franchise. A Lobo movie has all the ingredients that made the Deadpool franchise such a success, offering audiences a welcome reprieve from the sanitized mainstream superhero movies Supergirl seems to be promising. Momoa has the same passion for Lobo that Ryan Reynolds has for Deadpool, and that is reflected in what he is willing to do with the character for the DCU.

If Momoa just tanked any possibility of a stand-alone Lobo movie by insisting that it be rated R, he also did a good thing for audiences. It’s better to not get anything at all than to get a version of Lobo that isn’t true to his wild, rebellious, and violent nature in his own movie. Let him do all that PG-13 stuff for PG-13 superheroes, but let Lobo be Lobo in his own film.

More couples are discovering that scent compatibility plays a bigger role in attraction and long-term connection than they realized, with researchers pointing to evolutionary, emotional and even genetic reasons why a partner’s smell can make or break a bond.

Why Does Scent Matter So Much in Romantic Relationships?

Scent matters because it can signal physical health, emotional safety and biological compatibility between partners, according to researchers writing for Psychology Today and Healthline.

In an article for Psychology Today, Ainsley Hawthorn, Ph.D., explained that humans may be wired to read smell as a clue about a potential mate’s well-being. “From an evolutionary perspective, we may be primed to respond to scent because of its role as an indicator of physical health,” she wrote. Hawthorn noted that poor diet and disease can produce foul smells, so being turned off by a partner’s body odor may help steer people away from an unhealthy match. “In the end, disliking a partner’s scent may signal a loss of compatibility and spell trouble for a relationship,” she added.

In 5th grade, we all got “the talk” about body odor. We learned that our underarms will start to smell — especially with physical activity — making deodorant a must, but that was the extent of the conversation. Nowadays, as adults, body odor is a bit of a taboo subject. But everyone gets it, everyone […]

Can a Partner’s Scent Change How You Feel About Them Over Time?

Yes. Researchers say a partner’s scent can shift from a source of comfort to a source of stress as the relationship itself changes.

In a separate Psychology Today piece, Julieta Zemla pointed to research showing that smelling a romantic partner’s worn clothing can reduce stress responses (Hofer et al., 2018). “Over time, a partner’s scent can become encoded as a signal of safety. But this encoding can change,” Zemla wrote. “If a partner becomes critical, distant, or unreliable, their scent may begin to cue tension rather than comfort.” In other words, the same smell that once felt soothing can start to feel off-putting once trust or closeness erodes.

If you have been loyal to […]

Is Scent Attraction Influenced by Genetics?

Yes. Genetics help shape how someone smells and how appealing that smell is to a potential partner, on top of personal hygiene.

Writing for Healthline, Dorian Smith-Garcia explained that “current research has shown that humans are influenced by their partner’s scent when determining attractiveness and compatibility.” Smith-Garcia noted that people with the ABCC11 gene, which controls underarm odor and ear wax, “produce chemicals that scent-producing bacteria can feed on.” The takeaway, she wrote, is that “learning that body odor, or the lack of it, is genetically influenced and can also tip the scales during partner selection is an intriguing thought.”

Personal hygiene still plays a major role, but biology may quietly sway who you find irresistible and who you do not.
