The outspoken father of NBA players Lonzo Ball, LaMelo Ball and LiAngelo Ball revealed during an appearance on N3on's podcast that he and his wife, Tina Ball, have separated after 30 years of marriage.
According to LaVar, the decision wasn't his.
"We had our run," Ball said, adding that Tina ultimately chose to end the relationship.
LaVar also reflected on Tina's health, noting that she suffered a stroke in 2017. Despite the challenges they faced, he spoke warmly about his longtime wife.
"She was always beautiful in my eyes," he said.
The Balls became one of basketball's most recognizable families as LaVar's bold personality helped launch the careers of his three sons. Lonzo currently plays in the NBA, LaMelo has developed into one of the league's brightest young stars, and LiAngelo has spent time in both the NBA G League and professional basketball.
While discussing the split, LaVar also revealed he is now dating someone else, though he declined to identify the woman.
The couple had largely remained out of the spotlight regarding their personal relationship in recent years, making LaVar's comments the first public confirmation that their marriage had ended.
