Brittney and Cherelle first more than a decade ago while they both attended Baylor University from 2009 to 2013, though they didn’t start dating until years later. They married in June 2019 nearly a year after Brittney proposed.

Cherelle publicly fought for Brittney‘s release after she was taken into custody by Russian officials for carrying a vape pen containing hash oil in 2022.

The pair share 2-year-old son Bash.

Brittney was previously married to former WNBA star Glory Johnson.
