‘Deuces’: Las Vegas Aces’ Kelsey Plum Divorce Filed

Author Shawn Tempesta
It lasted just over a year, but it's over. Kelsey Plum and Darren Waller are calling it quits.

The former Las Vegas royal sports family has called it quits with the Las Vegas Aces’ star Kelsey Plum divorce from her former Las Vegas Raiders hubby Darren Waller.

And from what it sounds like… it might not have been amicable and happy.

Kelsey Plum Divorce Teased On Her Social Media

If you are a divorcing celebrity, is it even official without a social media post? No. That is why she broke the news in a tweet on Tuesday morning.

“I’m devastated,” explains the 29-year-old Plum. “I walked through fire for that man, but now I see it’s time to go.” She continued, “One day I’ll share my story, today is not that day.” Somewhere, Darren Waller might be grinding his teeth if there is truly a story to tell.

At the end of the message, she references scripture. In particular, Philippians 1:6. The passage reads “I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ.” ScriptureType.com explains the scripture means to love more, not less, and be prepared to love who God sets in front of you.

So it sounds like she’s not swearing off men, but just this one. A petition for divorce on was filed on Tuesday in Clark County.

Remembering Better Times With Kelsey Plum And Darren Waller

It goes without saying that both Plum and Waller are striking. When the Las Vegas Aces guard wed the Las Vegas Raiders tight end, the photos from their wedding were absolutely beautiful!

But almost as soon as the wedding happened, Darren was gone. Traded away to the New York Giants for a draft pick, and almost immediately severing the geographically close relationship they had. Unfortunately, it appears the relationship was unable to withstand the challenge.

The only ring on Plum’s mind now? A third WNBA Championship ring for the three-peat. Training camp begins Sunday.

Scenes From The Las Vegas Aces Parade (PICTURES)

You’ll never forget your first.

The Las Vegas Aces won game 4 in the WNBA Finals on Sunday night in Connecticut, taking with them the WNBA Championship and Las Vegas‘ very first major league sports title. With the honor, comes the party! A short parade followed by a massive party in front of the Bellagio fountains.

Fans were rushing from (or playing hooky from) work to make it in time for the event, flocking to the area mostly from the Caesars Palace parking lot. In front of Caesars, a staging area for the parade with Raiderettes, classic cars, members of the Boys & Girls Club and Broadway In The Hood gearing up to take the route. Then, a horn was blasting out of nowhere. Travelling north on Las Vegas Boulevard, a chartered bus with the Las Vegas Aces was barreling down the street! The parade was coming soon!

Aces staff went up and down the parade route handing out signs, pom-poms, rally towels and more.

At 5:30 sharp, the parade began. Down the street came community members holding “CHAMPS” in balloon lettering. Motorcycle cops and the Nevada State Police‘s “Aces” cruisers, local community organizations and more.

Then, the “Big Bus” double-decker buses rolled through. A’ja Wilson, like Rose in Titanic planted at the front of the first bus with the WNBA Championship in her hand and a grin you couldn’t wipe off if you tried. Aces owner Mark Davis standing close by, almost undetectable wearing a hat. Finals MVP Chelsea Gray holding her MVP trophy precariously off the side of the bus.

They headed towards the stage in front of the Bellagio with thousands in attendance awaiting them. So many that they actually closed the other side of Las Vegas Boulevard – something officials weren’t expecting to do.

The famed Las Vegas Strip, playground to tourists from around the world, was for one rare moment taken over by locals. Local organizations, local fans, our local team. It was a special day! Congrats Aces! Here’s to next year!
