Telling Kin’s podcast Side by Side,
I was very attracted to his stature and the fact that he’s this 6’7″ at the time, 260 [lbs.], large, Black, adorable man. And he would put on tights every Sunday and cleats and crack quarterbacks for a living. I thought that was amazing.
Haqq-McCray divorce announcement
In a sad announcement on Instagram, Haqq let everyone know that she was separating from her husband, NFL star Bobby McCray.
Now more than ever I have been relying on prayer. Family is so important to me. Unfortunately, life has brought me to tremendous transition. After 13 years of marriage, 16 years together and 4 incredible children, I have come to the intensely difficult conclusion that while Bobby & I have a great deal of love for one another, it’s best we move forward separately. I did not come to this decision lightly. For the most part, I have kept my relationship private for the benefit of our family. I share this not because I believe it’s newsworthy – but so that we go about our lives with honesty at to begin the journey of co-parenting. I’m so grateful for my incredible support system.
