The family fallout the rapper tearfully described on social media has spiraled into divorce drama in one business day. According to TMZ<\/a>,<\/em> Howard petitioned to end the marriage on Monday morning, stating the marriage was \u201cirretrievably broken.\u201d<\/p>\n

The contentious couple are still newlyweds, with a marriage date of Jan. 11, 2025. However, it doesn\u2019t seem like the honeymoon phase lasted long. As BOSSIP previously reported, Luciani revealed in a bombshell Instagram Live that she called the police on Howard miltiple times in that short span amid his alleged drug addiction<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Amy Luciani\u2019s Allegations About Dwight Howard <\/h3>\n

The Love & Hip-Hop<\/em> alum claimed the issues run deeper than their rocky relationship to affect her stepchildren. She now claims that Child Protective Services took their daughter due to these ongoing issues. <\/p>\n

\u201cThis is not him. This is not Dwight. This is trauma, this is everything he been through but now the kids. I have to advocate for the kids. And I can\u2019t go down for what he\u2019s doing. So, they took our daughter and I\u2019m just sitting there like do I speak up or be quiet? What do I do?\u201d she asked, turning to social media as a last resort.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

\u201cI caught this man forcing our 12-year-old son to cover for him, he had him lying. I recorded it. He\u2019s coaching our son to lie on me and I had to record it. I try to tell everybody that he needs help and don\u2019t nobody want to listen because he got the money. Y\u2019all don\u2019t understand, I live with him. He needs some help,\u201d she continued. <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Luciani explained that these two alleged incidents were the last straws for her to come forward publicly. Throughout the video, she held up and poured out multiple containers of white powder, saying, \u201cThis is what I\u2019m losing my marriage to.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cNow look what I have to do to protect myself. My husband put himself in a position to where CPS was called to our house 3x in less than two months but three days ago, they were called again and this time they left with our daughter. I have personally had to call the police on him 3 times in a barely 14-month marriage,\u201d she added. <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Dwight Howard\u2019s Non-Reaction To Amy Luciani and Royce Reed<\/h3>\n

Dwight Howard didn\u2019t address Luciani\u2019s claims or his ex, Royce Reed, entering the chat to double down on abuse allegations<\/a> and Luciani\u2019s dismissive reaction. <\/p>\n

Instead, the NBA star was caught cheesing courtside on the Jumbotron at the Lakers vs. Knicks game the next day<\/a>. After playing it up to the camera, he stood up to wave and smile to the crowd. Hours later, he was filing divorce papers, which \u201cdemand exclusive use of his Georgia mansion\u201d that Luciani stated they shared.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not the first time the whirlwind couple split. Six months into the marriage, Luciani was the one to file for divorce.<\/a> Back in July, she requested fairly split marital assets \u201creal and personal property and alimony. Months later, they reconciled after she said close friends encouraged her to stay in the relationship. <\/p>\n

Reed moved even faster than her ex to seemingly react to the divorce news. On Instagram Story, she posted a Rocky<\/em> meme that said \u201cThrow the damn towel!\u201d with the caption, \u201cYikes!\u201d<\/p>\n
