So move over Kim Kardashian, Evelyn Whoneedsanewlastname is claiming your title for the shortest amount of time from I do to I want a divorce. After Evelyn’s PR team released this statement
It is with great sadness and much trepidation that I release this statement addressing the domestic violence incident that happened this past Saturday. I am deeply disappointed that Chad has failed to take responsibility for his actions and made false accusations against me, it is my sincere hope that he seeks the help he needs to overcome his troubles. Domestic violence is not okay and hopefully my taking a stand will help encourage other women to break their silence as well. I’m grateful to my family, friends and fans for the outpouring of support during this difficult time.
Evelyn has apparently started the divorce proceedings. That is a record 42 days. Take that, Kim K! It seems clear that Evelyn is trying to be sure she is recognized, particularly by VH1, as the victim in this situation. And clearly, she is the victim in this situation. However, it is evident here and across the Internet that she is not getting a lot of sympathy due to her own nationally televised history of aggressive behavior. Whether that is fair or not, is irrelevant. What she and her PR team are trying to secure is that VH1 doesn’t finally throw in the towel Basketball Wives, a show that should have been cancelled well prior to this. There has been a growing wave of criticism for the show since the violence escalated. Much of that violence was due to the bullying behavior of Evelyn and her posse.
In addition to losing her meal ticket husband, having a facial wound and losing her VH1 spin-off , Evelyn’s brother-in-law who can be seen walking her down the aisle last month in the picture above. passed away yesterday. He was featured on the now defunct VH1 show about Chad and Evelyn’s fairytale marriage. We know this of course because Evelyn and her people have been in constant contact with TMZ over the last few days getting the appropriate spin on the story.
An overwhelming amount of the commentary I have read on all this seems to be that Karma is a real and active force in the world. What do y’all think?
clearly neither of these geniuses thought their little drama all the way through, cause i am certain this is not how either of them envisioned it would end. yes, karma is a b*tch, and i have a hard time working up any sympathy for either of them. anyone who watches the hard knocks series knew it was just a matter of time before the dolphins cut him, cause they appeared to be over his antics from week one. not all reality tv is the same, and not everyone saw them as *stars*. who knows, they may actually have to get real jobs, like you know, regular people. i am trying not to laugh.

I’m glad you said that. I don’t know who these people are, I just heard of them a few weeks ago for the first time when they got married. I too suspect these two have been on borrowed time. I’m sure there are lots of athletes who beat their wives and are still playing. So for this guy to get fired makes me think his team may have been looking to get rid of him for some time and used this as the reason. I’ve also heard crazy stuff about their reality show, and again, the show sounds like something that should have been cancelled a long time ago. I think a lot of people wanted these two to be gone and now they are.
Ev will be on every talking head show that will take her before the weekend comes. Bank on it. And some skeeve has already come forward to Radar Online claiming to be a mistress. There may be some good money in that. Hey, I should try that.
Why can’t she be classy like Katie Holmes was during her divorce? Katie kept her mouth shut and wouldn’t DARE do an interview.
Funny how her brother in law passes yet she’s making sure to comment to TMZ and any other outlet that contacts her…it’s hard to garner any sympathy because I have visions of her leaping across the table like she’s a member of so you think you can dance and throwing bottles cause someone called her ‘loose’ so suffice it to say I can believe she headbutted him
Im cynical…i think they used Vh1 to get a little money, got paid and got out. remember thats what flav did on the last flavor of love..he already was with his baby’s mother and clearly said he just did the show to get the check–so aired or not, Chad and Eve were already paid for their services. Now as far as what happened, who knows but its interesting that she filed for divorce so quickly..no consulting religous people, family, counselor, mediation lawyer, even chad himself? this is a media power play.
Karma, indeed. I feel zero sympathy for that ‘ho jump-off, especially after her disgraceful bullying behavior on the basketball wives show. Sick of both of them and their fame-ho’ing ways.
