Alyssa Thomas has had to rely on the support of numerous teammates over the length of her career in the WNBA ... including her fiancée, DeWanna Bonner!

The professional basketball player and her partner have stuck together on and off the court, and the two have wedding bells planned for their future!

We're going to take a look at the background of Thomas' soon-to-be wife and see how they were brought together by their love for sports.

Bonner began receiving attention for her skills on the court in high school, and she continued with the sport, playing college basketball at Auburn University.

The athlete became the first player from Auburn to lead the SEC in scoring, which she accomplished in her 2008-2009 season.

Bonner also set a scoring record at her school, racking up a total of 2,162 points, according to her WNBA profile.

The WNBA star finished out her career with Auburn in 2009, graduating from the institution with a degree in psychology.

Bonner's WNBA career kicked off shortly after she finished college, when she was drafted by the Phoenix Mercury in 2009, where she played guard and forward.

She remained with the team until 2020, when she was traded and began a four-year stint with the Connecticut Sun.

The professional athlete concluded her time with the Sun in 2024, and she returned to the Mercury for the 2025 season.

In addition to her work in the WNBA, Bonner's played for various international teams over the length of her career.

The thing is, Thomas wasn't Bonner's first partner, as the athlete was briefly married to fellow WNBA player Candice Dupree.

Bonner, who played alongside Dupree on the Mercury, tied the knot in the fall of 2016, according to the WNBA's official website.

Bonner announced she was pregnant in March 2017, and she gave birth to a pair of twin girls that July.

The professional basketball players eventually split up, and Bonner moved on with another teammate.

Bonner and Thomas first met when they were both playing for the Sun in 2020, and their relationship developed when they were mandated to stay in what were described as "bubbles" for much of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Bonner told CBS News she "stalked" her now-fiancée by watching her Instagram Stories prior to the start of their relationship.

The pair eventually began dating, and the guard-forward asked Thomas to marry her following the 2023 WNBA All-Star Game in Las Vegas.

The wrestling world was left mourning in July 2025 when we reported former WWE Champion Hulk Hogan died at the age of 71.

Even more affected than his fans was the legendary wrestler's extended family, including his wife Sky Daily -- and two ex-wives, Linda Hogan and Jennifer McDaniel.

We're going to look back at the marital history of the late professional wrestler and see what happened in his personal life over the course of each of his marriages.

The first of the former WWE Champion's three marriages was to Linda ... the couple tied the knot in 1983.

Hulk and Linda started a family with the birth of their daughter Brooke in 1988, and they welcomed son Nick two years later.

The Hogan family's personal life became the subject of intense media attention with the premiere of the reality show "Hogan Knows Best" in 2005, and the show ran for four seasons, with the series finale airing in 2007.

The thing is, Hulk and Linda's marriage didn't last for long after the show ended, as Linda filed for divorce in 2007 ... and the pair's union was officially dissolved two years later.

The wrestler moved on shortly after the end of his marriage to Linda, and he began dating Jennifer McDaniel in 2008, according to E! News.

Hulk and McDaniel eventually decided to make things official, and they got married in a ceremony in Clearwater, Florida, in 2010.

The pair were together for 11 more years before the New World Order wrestler filed for divorce in 2021, the year their marriage was dissolved -- and he had to throw in a new car for McDaniel as part of their settlement.

Hulk didn't make an announcement about his divorce until February 2022 -- at which point he already had a new girlfriend.

So, it turns out that new girlfriend was Sky Daily, a mom-of-three who was working as a yoga instructor when she met Hogan.

We revealed the pair got engaged in July 2023 after the wrestler popped the question at a restaurant in Tampa, Florida, and they tied the knot that September.

The pair remained together until Hulk's death two years later ... she shared an emotional message on her Instagram account to let fans know she believed he would have "more time," despite going through health issues.

Savannah Chrisley looks like she's moved on from her ex of two years ... as she was seen canoodling with a mystery man in the Caribbean waters of the Cayman Islands.

In new footage obtained by TMZ, the reality star was spotted Sunday in Grand Cayman, laughing, sipping drinks and splashing around in the sea with friends.

Check out the video ... Savannah's being carried in the water, arms wrapped around the neck of a handsome man holding a pink pool noodle.

A'Ja Wilson's earned herself plenty of supporters over her time in professional basketball -- including her boyfriend, NBA star Bam Adebayo!

Wilson revealed the news about her romance in February 2025 ... although she claimed she'd been close with Bam for an extended period of time, prior to the start of their relationship.

We're going to take a look at the life and times of the WNBA star's partner and see how their love story unfolded.

Adebayo's career in the NBA kicked off in 2017, and he's played as both a center and a power forward over the length of his time in the league.

The athlete, who played college ball for the University of Kentucky, was drafted by the Miami Heat after only one season of collegiate sports.

He's earned a fair amount of accolades over the course of his career, and he's played in the NBA's All-Star Game on three separate occasions.

Adebayo earned two gold medals in his appearances at the 2020 and 2024 Summer Olympic Games, where he played on the USA's National Team.

Wilson and Adebayo were first linked when they were spotted together just prior to the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris, when the WNBA star was a member of the USA Women's National Basketball Team, according to People.

The two sparked rumors about a potential relationship when they began sharing cryptic social media posts that appeared to point to their connection after the Games concluded.

Oh yeah, and we caught them leaving a restaurant in Beverly Hills on what appeared to be a date night in January 2025.

The thing is, the athletes had been friends "for years" before they ever started officially dating, and the Las Vegas Aces star confirmed their relationship just after Valentine's Day in 2025 -- which they had to spend apart, as he needed "rest."

Adebayo and Wilson have been openly supportive of each other's efforts off the court, and Adebayo was pictured wearing the Nike A'One Basketball Shoes when the Heat played the Brooklyn Nets in January 2025.

The WNBA star told People her boyfriend was incredibly supportive of her collaboration with Nike and wanted to be at the "forefront of pushing my shoes."

Wilson said she was "thankful" Adebayo wanted to be the one to promote her shoes, and described him as "a good person all around."

Brooks Nader’s been very vocal about claiming ex-boyfriend Gleb Savchenko cheated on her – and now, the whole messy breakdown is getting the spotlight in a trailer for her new reality show.

The "Love Thy Nader" preview is packed with drama, with Brooks declaring Gleb cheated on her and insisting she has the proof to back it up -- before the clip cuts to one of her sisters frantically asking ChatGPT for advice after learning Brooks has been blindsided by betrayal.

Of course, it’s a heartbreaking situation that’s only drawn the sisters closer -- visible as they sit together, listening to Gleb’s interviews where he denies everything, declaring they’re spreading lies just to fuel their reality show drama.

Machine Gun Kelly’s been talking all things co-parenting with ex Megan Fox ... but fans are dying to know -- what’s the deal with him and Sydney Sweeney?!

The rapper popped up on "Watch What Happens Live" Sunday night, where Andy Cohen threw a fan question from Kyle P his way, asking if he and Sydney were more than just friends. MGK’s response? Pure comedy, as always!

MGK straight-up told Kyle P to "shut up, dude," and the entire audience lost it. And ... that was the end of that.

Halle Berry’s first ex-husband, David Justice, thinks therapy could have saved their marriage ... 30 years after they called it quits.

He made the admission during his recent appearance on Matt Barnes’ "All the Smoke" podcast while reminiscing on what went wrong with their love -- and didn't hold anything back, even revealing he didn't think the "Monster's Ball" star was "motherly" enough to bear his children.

Just listen to the clip -- he explained ... "At that time, as a young guy -- she don't cook, don't clean, don't really seem like motherly, and then we start having issues."

Emma Thompson says Donald Trump tried to see if there was any "Love Actually" between them ... though he did it in a way that sorta weirded her out.

The actress was dishing about a few different topics at the Locarno Film Festival in Switzerland this week ... and, she told a story about the billionaire allegedly trying to hook up with her.

DJT called her back in 1998 out of the blue while she was on the set of the film "Primary Colors," Thompson told the crowd ... though she thought someone was messing with her at first.

Unless you've been living under a rock for the past few decades, it's pretty apparent to all that LeBron James has changed the face of basketball over his multi-year career.

And he's earned himself plenty of supporters over the length of his time in the NBA -- especially his wife Savannah, who's been with him since before he joined the league.

We're going to take a look at the background of the athlete's spouse and see how she's stayed with him throughout his run in professional sports.

Savannah's established a name for herself as a podcaster, as she launched the "Everybody's Crazy podcast" with her longtime friend April McDaniel in 2024.

Savannah spoke to People shortly before the podcast's launch and said the prospect of opening up in a public setting felt "freeing," as she had been a relatively private individual up to that point.

In addition to her podcasting interests, Savannah's been involved with various philanthropic efforts over the years, and she launched a mentorship program, Women Of Our Future, which operates in her hometown of Akron, Ohio, in 2017.

She's since helped launch a membership community, Let It Break, which offers networking opportunities for women dedicated to "personal growth and self-discovery," according to Harper's Bazaar.

Savannah and LeBron's love story began in their high school days, and although he'd initially asked for the number of one of her friends, the podcaster ended up getting the athlete's contact information ... but she later told Cleveland Magazine she briefly forgot she had his number. They had their first one-on-one date at an Outback Steakhouse.

The pair dated for more than a decade -- and attended high school prom together -- before the NBA star popped the big question in 2011.

Savannah and LeBron waited for two more years before tying the knot in a star-studded ceremony, which featured a performance by Beyoncé and Jay-Z.

Savannah gave birth to her eldest son, LeBron "Bronny" James Jr., in 2004, when she was still in high school and her husband was in his rookie NBA season.

The podcaster's second son, Bryce, was born in 2007, and she welcomed a daughter named Zhuri in 2014.

And ya gotta imagine Savannah's a proud mom, because Bronny followed in his father's footsteps into the NBA, while Bryce signed on to play college basketball for the University of Arizona Wildcats in January 2025.

"Love Island" star Pepe Garcia-Gonzalez is still basking in the love -- and it’s not just his fans sending him heart-eyes, Iris Kendall’s still got him feeling some type of way too!

We caught up with Pepe while cruising on the TMZ Tour bus, and one of our visitors threw the juiciest question about him and Iris. If his smile didn’t say it all, he confirmed -- they’re both doing great!

IYDK, these two paired up after their strongest connections -- Thomas "TJ" Palma and Hannah Fields -- got the boot on the latest season of "Love Island USA." And yep, they stuck together all the way to the finale!

Denise Richards and Aaron Phypers found some more mud to sling ... Denise says she caught her estranged husband red-handed stealing her laptop.

The estranged couple had their lawyers duke it out in court Friday as part of a hearing for the temporary restraining order Denise has against Aaron ... and Denise's camp claimed they have security footage of Aaron running away from her home with her computer in hand.

Denise has claimed Aaron stole a laptop containing her nude photos ... but Aaron's denied it. His lawyers said Friday he doesn't have the laptop -- but her attorneys shot back with their claim that they have him on video with the laptop.

While Hulk Hogan's death affected much of the wrestling world, it hit his family -- including his daughter Brooke -- especially hard.

The thing is, the late wrestler's eldest child wasn't present when the WWE champion was laid to rest, as she'd been estranged from her family for an extended period of time.

We're going to take a look at the background of the performer's daughter ... and examine what drove them apart.

Hogan shared his daughter Brooke and his son Nick with his first wife, Linda ... who he married in 1983 and divorced in 2009.

The professional wrestler's daughter got engaged to former Dallas Cowboys center Nick Costa, although they broke things off in 2013 before saying their vows.

She eventually moved on with former professional ice hockey player Steven Oleksy, and they made things official between them, marrying in June 2022.

Brooke and Oleksy started a family in 2025, when they welcomed a pair of fraternal twins named Oliver and Molly.

Brooke began her singing career in 2006 when she released her debut album, "Undiscovered" ... followed up by a record titled "The Redemption," released three years later.

She's also released several EPs, a mixtape, and numerous singles over the course of her musical career.

In addition to her work as a singer, Brooke's appeared on various television shows, including starring in the reality series "Brooke Knows Best," which ran for two seasons.

The late wrestler's daughter has since begun a career in interior design, and she founded her own design company, BB Designs By Brooke, in 2018.

Brooke's family life hasn't exactly been the smoothest, however, and she was estranged from her father at the time of his death.

We revealed the two hadn't spoken since 2023 shortly after Hulk died, as their relationship had been affected by issues over the years.

And that's not all ... her mother shared a video on her Instagram account in March 2025, claiming Brooke had "cut me out" and hadn't spoken to her in "almost eight years."

Brooke responded with an Instagram post of her own, in which she stated there were "completely separate reasons" for the distance she'd created between herself and each of her parents.

Following Hogan's death at the age of 71, he was memorialized at a funeral service in Largo, Florida ... where celebs like Vince McMahon, Triple H, and Ric Flair gathered to pay their last respects to the wrestler.

But, Brooke was a no-show at the event -- she explained her decision to skip the event by sharing a post on her Instagram account, claiming her father "hated the morbidity of funerals."

She said she honored her late father by taking a trip to the beach with her husband and their children.

DeWanna Bonner and Alyssa Thomas are a pretty great team on the court, as they've helped the Phoenix Mercury become the second-highest-ranking team in the WNBA's Western Conference for the 2025 season.

The thing is, they're even closer off the court, as the pair got engaged in September 2023!

We're going to take a look into Thomas' background and see how her love story with her teammate and future wife unfolded.

Thomas began receiving attention for her basketball skills playing for Central Dauphin High School in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.

The athlete graduated in 2010, and she signed on to play basketball for the University of Maryland.

Thomas became the Terrapins' all-time leader in several categories, including points, rebounds and free throws made, according to the team's official website.

The basketball star graduated from the University of Maryland in 2014, and the school retired her jersey number on her Senior Day.

Thomas' career in the WNBA began in 2014, when she was drafted by the New York Liberty ... before being traded to the Connecticut Sun.

The athlete, who plays as a power forward, remained with the team for several seasons, and she ultimately left the Sun in 2024.

Thomas has also been associated with various international teams over the length of her career, which has seen her play in countries like South Korea and the Czech Republic.

Thomas' career with the Phoenix Mercury began in February 2025, when the team announced it had acquired the athlete as part of a trade.

In case it wasn't apparent already, Bonner and Thomas met through their involvement with the WNBA, and Bonner jokingly told CBS News she'd "stalked" her now-fiancée's Instagram account in the beginning stages of their relationship.

The pair's connection deepened further when they were required to remain in bubbles with the rest of their team for part of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The happy couple went public with their relationship in 2021, and the Mercury revealed their engagement in a post on its official X account two years later.

Kelly Clarkson's been through plenty of changes in her life, and a major one came in early August 2025, when it was revealed her ex-husband, Brandon Blackstock, died.

The talent manager privately fought a battle with cancer for three years, and he ultimately died at the age of 48.

We're going to take a look at the background of the singer's late partner and see how she cared for him in his final years.

Blackstock worked as a talent manager, and he was associated with Starstruck Entertainment, a company founded by his father Narvel.

Narvel was married to Reba McEntire from 1989 until 2015, and the country singer described her ex-stepson as her "blood" in an interview with Entertainment Tonight.

Starstruck primarily operates in the country music space, and Blackstock oversaw the careers of several high-profile artists, including Blake Shelton.

Blackstock eventually departed the music industry, and he began focusing on developing and running a cattle ranch in Montana.

The talent manager and the singer met in 2006, while he was still married to his first wife, Melissa Ashworth.

Blackstock and his Ashworth tied the knot in 2001 and welcomed a daughter and a son -- Savannah and Seth -- over the course of their marriage. They divorced in 2012.

The talent manager eventually reconnected with Clarkson -- whom he managed from 2017 to 2020 -- and they married in 2013.

The couple started a family with the birth of their daughter River in 2014, and their son Remington was born two years later.

Blackstock and Clarkson remained together until 2020, when the singer filed for divorce, and she was awarded primary custody of their children that November.

The pair's divorce proceedings stretched out for two years before their marriage was officially dissolved in March 2022. The singer had to provide her ex-husband with just over $1.3 million, according to court documents obtained by The Blast.

However, Blackstock was subsequently ordered to pay Clarkson more than $2.6 million for putting together business deals that should've been handled by a talent agent for her during his time as her manager, according to People.

The two later filed lawsuits against each other regarding commissions Blackstock paid himself while he was Clarkson's manager ... although they ended up dismissing their respective suits, according to Rolling Stone.

Clarkson began missing tapings for her talk show in March 2025, and various guest hosts filled her spot over the course of several episodes.

Although the singer didn't specify why she'd stepped away from the cameras, sources have since told People Clarkson skipped out on the tapings as a result of Blackstock's cancer battle.

The singer's commitment to Blackstock's well-being was later revealed to be the reason why she postponed several dates of her Las Vegas residency.

Machine Gun Kelly’s making it loud and clear -- Megan Fox is the real MVP when it comes to their newborn, Saga Blade Fox-Baker ... and he’s got a hilarious story to back it up.

MGK stopped by "Today with Jenna and Friends," sharing that Mama Fox was recently fuming when someone praised him as being a "good dad" for doing the bare minimum:  holding the baby.

MGK explained Megan was quick to shut down the dad applause -- and it's clearly something he agreed with... saying all he really does is play the guitar and hope the baby’s happy, while Megan’s the real MVP doing all the heavy lifting.

Chiney Ogwumike has earned herself plenty of supporters over her career as a professional basketball player and sports analyst -- including her husband, Raphael Akpejiori.

The athlete's husband went through plenty of changes in his life before he met the former Los Angeles Sparks team member, whom he married in 2023.

We're going to take a look into the boxer's background and see how his love story with the basketball star played out.

Ogwumike's not the only one with experience on the court, as her husband -- who was born and raised in Lagos, Nigeria -- played on the University of Miami basketball team.

Akpejiori served as a forward for the Hurricanes, and he spent a total of four seasons on the squad.

Oh, and in addition to his work on the court, the athlete spent a season as a tight end on the school football team ... and he was later added to the Miami Dolphins practice squad in 2015, according to the Miami Herald.

Akpejiori eventually earned a degree in mechanical engineering from the University of Miami, and he landed a position in the school's Energy Department.

The athlete's boxing career began while he was at the University of Miami, where he began training after a friend decided to start going to a boxing gym.

Akpejiori, who told the Miami Herald his interest in boxing "started for me as a workout," eventually began competing as an amateur, and he won 13 out of his first 14 bouts.

He became a professional in 2018, and he trained with former world light-heavyweight champion Glen Johnson, who said Raphael was "very raw" when they began working together.

However, the former champ said seeing Akpejiori's skills as a boxer develop over the years was "very gratifying."

Ogwumike and her husband initially matched on a dating app, according to People, and their first date took place at a Burna Boy concert.

The former Los Angeles Sparks star and the boxer got engaged on Christmas Eve in 2022.

The happy couple subsequently the knot over a four-day wedding ceremony in Houston, Texas the following November.
