*Here’s an update on the messy situation between ex-NBAer Matt Barnes and his ex-wife Gloria Govan regarding his accusation that she forged his name to obtain funds to buy her parents a house and nightclub.
Barnes and Govan, who have twin sons together, are set to go at each other out in court over the matter. According to theJasmineBrand, Barnes filed court docs claiming that he learned about Govan using his signature without his permission, last year when he was sued over the home.
In the court papers, he provided bank statements during the divorce which show large amounts of funds deposited into her accounts on various dates. He believes the funds were either secretly diverted from him or earnings during their marriage that she never disclosed to him. Barnes also believes that since she omitted the funds, he should be entitled to half of the assets.
The legal documents state:
“On several occasions in the marriage, I found that respondent had diverted funds from me, without my knowledge or consent, such as when I was asleep in preparation for a basketball game, and woke up to find that she emailed my financial advisor at the time, from my email account, instructing him to transfer $50,000.”

Meanwhile, Govan has responded. She is alleging that Barnes was fully aware of the home for her parents and the nightclub in Oakland. She also notes that Barnes never listed his NBA money.
As far as buying a house for her parents, she says her father borrowed $100k from Barnes, but later reimbursed him. She also provides proof for the reimbursement. Govan also says that Barnes was aware of the lease for the club in Oakland, pointing out that the pair produced a comedy show together at the same venue.
Well, at least she’s got answers, but will the court believe her? We’ll see, because a hearing has been set for this month.
