*Former NBA star Stephen Jackson, agreed to give his ex-wife Renata Jackson the divorce she wanted with a Georgia judge signing off on the settlement, according to theJasmineBRAND.com.
She filed for divorce last July 18 in a Georgia court after four years of marriage, but it turned messy when she claimed he sold off her Bentley without her knowledge.
She filed documents accusing her ex and ordered for him to be jailed. He said he needed the money to pay child support. He had no assets.
Stephen fired back claiming he did nothing wrong and demanded the motion for contempt be thrown out. Then on February 16th, Stephen filed docs demanding the divorce be dismissed due to him and his wife reconciling since her filing.
He explains that him and his wife have lived together for periods of time since she filed for divorce, had mutually consented sexual intercourse on multiple occasions and even gone on several vacations including a trip to the Bahamas.
Stephen says his wife filed for divorce strategically, since their pre-nup states her pay out would be correlated to his net worth at the time she filed, and she filed while he was playing with the NBA and at the moment he is no longer with a team. He says she filed as early as possible to lock in a higher settlement — despite continuing to have a relationship with him. He demanded the divorce be dismissed.
Bottom line: He said he did nothing wrong. He asked for the motion for contempt to be thrown out. Then on February 16, he asked for the divorce to be dismissed after reconciling. Eventually, he changed his mind, reaching a confidential settlement with his ex.
