Back in 2010 retired NBA player Matt Barnes was arrested for assaulting his then wife Gloria Govan [click here if you missed that].
Apparently that wasn't the only time Matt attacked Gloria...
From The Blast
In documents filed by attorney Mark Gross, Govan also says Barnes took her 9-carat engagement ring and wedding band and hawked them to buy himself and their kids diamond necklaces. She wants the court to force Barnes to reimburse her for the value of the rings.
She claims Barnes is a danger to the children, and includes a deposition from August 2017 where under oath she claimed Barnes slapped her with the back of his hand while they were driving with the children in the car back in 2014. She also claims during a fight with fiancé Derek Fisher that Barnes became so enraged he spat on and tried to shove her.
To be clear, the 2014 allegation of assault is different than when Barnes was arrested for domestic violence in 2010 and Govan went on record saying he had never hit her.
Finally, she accuses Barnes of being a pothead, and said he would regularly smoke marijuana around their children. She notes that she does not believe his drug use is “out of control."Matt is currently suing Gloria for fraud and theft [click here if you missed that].
