*Break ups don’t have to be so terrible.
Reality show star Gloria Govan is a testament to that notion, as she recently split from Matt Barnes. Although the couple is no longer a couple, their relationship plays out on television every week on VH1’s “Basketball Wives: LA.”
But it’s not getting her down none. In fact, she says life is good.
“I’m happy with where I am now,” she told VH1.
Her announcement of the split came on Tuesday after the couple has been together for years, produced two children together, and making the move to Los Angeles.
“It hasn’t been an easy ride moving across the country twice, having kids at 21 when I just graduated college; it hasn’t been easy,” Gloria said, adding that the pressure of the NBA lockout has also been a huge stress on her former fiancé. “But we’re still friends and we’re still working things out and I wish him nothing but the best.”
All in all, the mother of two’s outlook is pretty optimistic and so is her sister’s.
Laura Govan is rooting for their reunion and thinks they’ll wind up together.
Gloria isn’t planning to date anyone any time soon. She’s just taking the time to refocus and get things back in order.




















After two kids, and no ring, you’re nothing but a jump off with benefits. Women let this be a lesson to you, even NBA players don’t consider you marriage material if they can bed you, impregnate you…several times and not have to marry you. By the way, if there isn’t a wedding date set, he isn’t/wasn’t your “fiance”.

Got to co-sign on that!! . . . can’t sympathize with a woman knowingly f*cking w/o protection . . . .saying how hard is lugging around her ankle-biters . . boo-hoo . . . what these “ladies” needs to do is either make a reality show of “how to land a baller”, or write a book, detailing on “How to be a (stfu)satisfied jump-off, like Kim Porter”
“How to be a (stfu)satisfied jump-off, like Kim Porter”
These women find themselves in a tricky situation.
They know that the guy is scared of getting married, knowing how much he could lose and end up paying in alimony. But knowing the length and uncertainty of a baller’s career, they have a limited time, so they opt to have the children, knowing that they will at least be covered through child support.
Yeah, seeing that she’s in that deep with two children, she would be better off just going with the flow like Kim.
Sad but true. The perilous life of a jump off.
THAT’S THE TITLE !!!!!!! “Perilous lif of a jump-off”
