Basketball Wives is full of reporting on the underbelly of sports relationships, which makes Gloria Govan the show’s one true romantic. She’s happily engaged to Matt Barnes of the Orlando Magic, much to the chagrin of her cast mates, who think that Gloria’s relationship isn’t as rosy as she thinks it is (even the show’s detached narrator, Shaunie, referred to Gloria as “naive”). Below, Gloria talks to us about being the black sheep of Basketball Wives, her “sleeping with the enemy” comment regarding Royce Reed, her fiance’s negative opinion of the show, and why she isn’t a fan of it herself.
And how do you feel about the show? Do you feel like your portrayal is accurate?
To a certain extent. I didn’t know the women coming into the show, so I think sometimes I may come off a little naive. I may come off as the shy-girl-in-the-background type, which is not my personality at all. I’ve never had a problem telling anybody how I feel. On the show, though, I’m being me, 100 percent real the whole time so there’s no surprises. I haven’t seen any surprises.
Speaking of naive, that’s what Shaunie labels you as at one point, and she’s piggybacking off of Evelyn and Jennifer sentiments about your relationship. What do you think about that?
I think it’s unfortunate. I don’t think I’m naive whatsoever. For me to say that I’m the only person that Matt’s ever been with, that would be naive. But I know the man that I’m with. We have our ups and we have our downs just like everybody else does. We’ve made mistakes but we’ve grown from them and moved past them, but I definitely wouldn’t say I’m naive. I’m aware that Matt is surrounded by groupies, being away from home as often as he is, but I know the kind of man I’m with and I trust him. I think I’m very fortunate in an unlucky way — Matt having lost his mom, I think, has really opened his eyes to how important family really is. I don’t think he’s willing to jeopardize it for anything.
What did you think of the fact that Jennifer and Evelyn seem insistent on pushing the point that he’s not as faithful as you seem to think he is?
You have these grown women who have been in the game for so long, and you would think they would say, “Hey listen, Gloria, I’ve been there done that for the past 10 years and here are my stories, here is my advice, take it for what it’s worth and good luck.” Instead they have to be so persistent and try to taint our relationship. I look at it as being bitter and jealous. I’m 10 years younger than most of the cast members on the show, I’m 24-years-old, and I’m in a respectful, loving relationship, I’m getting married in August, I have two beautiful kids and a family who loves me, and a lot of them are missing a majority of those components. It’s natural for them to be envious of what I have.
They’ve gone as far as to suggest that they have, maybe secondhand evidence, that Matt has been unfaithful to you. Do you have any response to that?
No. I think that they’re just very scarred individuals who don’t have anything else better to do than try to create misery. They would be happy if I was where they are now, and that’s unfortunate. If you’re someone who thrives on someone else’s misery and you’re trying to break up a happy home, I just think it’s kind of sad.
On the show, regarding Matt’s personal business you said, “If you go digging for dirt, you’ll get your hands dirty.” Can you explain what you meant by that?
If someone is saying, “Matt is this and Matt is that,” and you break into e-mails and you look in phones and you find nothing, I think that satisfaction becomes overwhelming and you assume this role of being a detective and an investigator. You start to lose who you are. I’m definitely not going to say that Matt is perfect. Who is? But I don’t worry about Matt being on the road. I don’t.
What did you think about Matt saying the show “disgusted” him in a recent interview?
Matt is very opinionated. I just asked him to make sure that he pinpoints exactly what disgusts him next time. That’s just such a broad and vague comment that it could be interpreted in any way. It didn’t surprise me, though. Matt has told me several times that he doesn’t like the show. It’s not necessarily about my role, but just how bitter the other women are. Bitter and angry and just jealous. He’s just like, “That’s not a good look, that’s not who you are, that’s not who you represent.” I think he’s more concerned about people thinking that I run in this kind of circle, because I don’t. I can’t say that I was disgusted by the first episode, but you know, I wasn’t really a fan.
Oh, really? Has your attitude changed since then?
No. I mean, I’m still not a fan of the show. I joined the show after Shaunie approached me last year in Phoenix and she had been pretty persistent over the summer about it. She said, “Hey, listen, the show is not going to be about drama, it’s not going to be about groupies. It’s about independent women trying to come out of the shadows of their significant others.” I was all about that. I’m involved in several charities, I’m an entrepreneur myself. I’m a stay-at-home mom, so I was definitely willing to show people that we’re not gold diggers. We don’t shop and spend all day at the spa. We don’t have six butlers and four nannies and personal chef. That’s not what this life is about.
Even with the drama, I do get the sense that you all have your own stuff going on.
I think the show maybe touches on those things, but I don’t think it’s the main focus. It’s supposed to be about friendship and showing people we’re a support group for one another, and that definitely doesn’t come off in the show. That’s unfortunate, because we really are a support group for one another. We’re not catty, cliquey people. We’re all in the same boat together, so we’re all very respectful of people’s situations.
Are you referring to the people you’re on the show with?
No, no, no. My friends. And not just my immediate circle, but majority of the women in the NBA.
Your storyline isn’t exactly drama-free, though. When you talk about Royce you say to fraternize with her would be like sleeping with the enemy.
What I mean by that is Royce is Dwight Howard’s baby mother, and Matt is on the same team as Dwight Howard, so being friends with Royce is not worth messing up Matt’s team camaraderie. If Royce comes over here and we’re all buddy-buddy and Matt’s around, that could really end up messing up Matt and Dwight’s friendship.
Regardless of whether or not Royce is a nice person, this overrides that?
Yeah absolutely, yeah. You’re talking about something long term. You’re talking about a championship. You’re talking about my fiancé’s career, his friendships. That definitely precedes my friendship to Royce, absolutely.
Was this always your concern with Royce, or did you develop it after getting to know her?
It was a concern immediately with Royce. I feel Royce’s actions sort of justify why women, wives and girlfriends in general should be concerned with the proximity or the availability that cheerleaders have to basketball players.
Obviously the reason she was so aggressive in the boxing ring is because everyone had sort of informed her of your opinion of her. Did you feel betrayed by everyone at that point?
Not necessarily betrayed, I just think that they realize that I’m not going to conform to their little group, and so I think they try really hard to make me the black sheep or the outsider. Which is fine. I don’t have a problem with that, it was just kind of funny that they try to make it seem like I’m the only one who feels this way. They’re so quick to tell Royce, “Oh, well Gloria said this,” but in turn, they were agreeing with me or it may have been that they started the conversation and I just chimed in a little bit. I just think it was everybody’s opportunity to say, “Now we have a way to turn the tables.”
Was it disappointing or stressful at all for you that you were made out to be the black sheep?
I wouldn’t say disappointing, no. I actually like being the black sheep. I like representing who I am and letting people know that I just don’t conform to peer pressure and everything. Was it stressful? To a certain degree. That kind of stuff doesn’t bother me, though. I graduated high school obviously and graduated college, so those high school cliques don’t stress me out whatsoever.
I’m sure that you don’t want to get into it about your sister’s alleged affair with Shaq, but did that add any level of stress as well? The fact that you were coming in with people already whispering about your family?
No. Like I said, in the show, they already formed their opinions and they’re already friends with Shaunie. And although I’m friends with Shaunie, I can’t say that we talk on the phone or we text each other. We are cordial, but she’s not invited to my wedding. She’s not that type of friend, so it didn’t bother me. You guys have already formed your own opinions, and I’m not here to change that. I’m here to say you’re not going to talk about my sister in front of me and think that that’s OK.
This show kind of presents you as a minority. Certainly you’re the only person that isn’t jaded about your relationship. You seem to be the only person who believes in the possibility of monogamy. In the overall scheme of basketball-wifery that goes beyond this show, are you a minority?
No, not at all. That’s unfortunate, too, because I think that the cast members of the show stereotype all athletes and put them all under this one umbrella because they were scarred and they were disrespected and they were in a relationship that was unsuccessful. So it’s easy to point the finger and say, “Well he cheated on me, so because everybody plays basketball, they cheat on wives, too.” And that’s not the case. We all have to deal with the same stuff, the groupies, and we do all have to deal with the concerns of possible infidelity, but that’s not the case whatsoever. There are tons of relationships that are great and healthy and respectful and have been long term, so I am definitely not a minority on the league, but definitely on the show.
Knowing what you know about the way the show turned out, would you do it all over again?
No. No, no.
Would you participate in a second season?
No.
Wow. I think you might be the first person on VH1 to have a taste of reality TV not to want more of it. You talked about Shaunie presenting the show as a way for you to break out and show your independence. Do you feel like you’re living in Matt’s shadow?
I think being married to somebody that casts such a big shadow is difficult and Matt has been in the limelight since he was 18. It’s difficult to stand on your own and say, “Well, wait a minute, I’m not just Matt’s fiancé, I’m Gloria.” If I had my own limelight coming in, then it would be a different story. But I think trying to create or establish some sort of individuality is always challenging.
You mentioned your charities and the fact that you’re an entrepreneur, can you talk about that a little bit?
I’m the executive director for Athletes vs. Cancer, which is Matt’s foundation, and we do a lot of events that’s not just cancer based, but we do a lot of events that help underprivileged children or for young women who had children who don’t have the supplies that they need. We’re also doing something with Hoop Connection, which helps provide scholarships to underprivileged children or children who maybe have the potential but don’t have the outlets or the networking skills to go out there and get a scholarship. I just got on board to do one of the Florida Children’s Hospital’s biggest events next year, also. My parents own night clubs in California and that’s something both my brother and I are looking to do in Orlando. I actually have a baby product out. It’s a mattress that should help prevent SIDS. There are a lot of things that the show doesn’t portray or doesn’t show, so that’s frustrating.

I do not understand the purpose of this show. I really do think they are setting a bad example for young ladies. Gloria is the only one that is a real woman. The other ladies have some issues that they need to work on.Gloria I would keep loving yourself,your children and than you man. Keep your head up and find some really friends. To all the women you really need to get Jesus in your life because you will never be happy with out him.
Evelyn,
I don’t like the fact that your always talking about class and being a mature women. First of all,just so you know,people who have class don’t go around talking about having it all the time! Like the song goes “Elegance is learned and not bought! So since your not will Antwoine Walker anymore,you cant even afford to buy it anymore. So that makes you a chicken head over 40 who needs to go back to the Bronx quickly. Oh, and stop hating on Royce, she’s a better woman than you, being a groupie and all! Shout out to Jen (whom I like now). I like the way you made friends with Royce, it keeps you grounded, and lose the cheating husband, you deserve much better than that, just stop being so snootie on T.V. you come off high post sometimes(in a bad way). Shout out to Royce, keeping doing your thing, I like the way you kicked !@^$$+_^!_$!(_$ in the ring!
Why do they called this show the basketball wives,Gloria is not married to her baby daddy, Royce have a child for a b-ball player,Evelyn is divorce, Jennifer is on her way to the divorce court and Shaunice not even with her husband.
As for Miss Suzie she is just a baby mama to her EX, so these ladies need to get the ~!_*#`+&__()%_)@ off there high horses and find a 9 to 5 and be independent.
Gloria is a sweet young lady .But a man was designed to wander.it’s a women right
to either accept or not.So if she feels that matt won’t that’s great.The best thing for a women and man is to like ,love past the sex.Even a strong willed man or women can be broken.We all have deep seeded issues.From childhood to adulthood.Sex is just that Sex.
it’s not love ( No Heart,.Sometimes Money)And it’s what makes lives messy.Go back the garden of eden,was it the tree of knowledge or sex?Couples don’t break up because of the tree of knowledge.They break up because of sex with other people.And most wives
no matter who they are married to,don’t want to have sex as much a man.Unless she’s a PORN star.or a battery pack
WHO in the real world stays engaged for TEN years?A real women in love would have made him committ.Haven’t heard one word about LOVE.THEY had the same hope and dream and most girls.Of either marrying rich and being rich.What is the back ground of those women.And how many of them were ceo’s or exec’s?Are they any college
degrees among them.If not MONEY AND FAME DIGGERS.
Gloria, )!*_*#)#@$@)@^@%# please you are not the %“*%_*!)!)%&#+# You are just another BABY MOMMA, I would be surprised if this wedding actually takes place. You think you are better than everybody else HOE please. All you done was some suck #_%`&%~%&$`**$%~ and balls just like the other groupie )!*_*#)#@$@)@^@%# es, and you and your sisters are groupie _@+(`$(_@^__^(& hoes. Funny you are both dating basketball players…can we say MEAL TICKET! Dirty _@+(`$(_@^__^(& welfare hoes!
Shawnee is obviously a very intelligent woman to start this show and stay away from it. All the girls are cool and down to earch EVELYN on the other hand….she looks like a man, she’s a hypocrite and gives herself way toooooooooooooo much credit.
Well I can see by reading these other comments I am not alone. Evelyn…get a life. You come off like a very bitter and unhappy person. You are always talking like you are above everyone else and holier then though. You bad mouth …either Gloria or Royce first chance you get or with some smirk.
I won’t even comment on the others except Gloria who is the only one with any smarts. She knows exactly who she married and his profession, but unlike these other women she doesn’t go looking for problems of mistrust while her man is away. Haven’t you heard of the old saying..”What you don’t know…won’t hurt ya”…well you should try it sometime and the rest of you stop looking for things to make your life more miserable.
As far as Royce…you will probably stab her in the back…soon. Look at this last episode…she was trying to do something good with the homeless and yet still you bad mouth her or become so critical of her.
Shawnee…try next time with some woman that have brains, heart and aren’t so shallow. I surely won’t watch next season…if they come back. That is for sure. But nice try Shawnee.

something about her…that does not click….
I don’t know why this show is called Basketball wives, with the exception of Jennifer who is on her way to a divorce and Gloria who is the only one with class, integrity and will be married soon they’re all just baby mama’s. And you really want me to feel bad for them becuase they were cheated on, they knew what they were getting in to, they did it for the money and sold their soul to the devil now they have to sleep in the bed they made while they try to buy some new Gucci shoes…….and Royce she was a groupie, why would they have her on the show, I’m so disappointed in Shaunie for even putting this show together, the truth needs no explanation. It’s casting a real bad light on these women.
I feel you.My man is dark skinned with CLEAR SKIN.Might not have millions still a good provider.I was gonna pick him over the lightskin guy i was dating with all those red pimples on his face.GROSS.Now that was trash.
She is truly beautiful and a class act. I hope all black women take a serious lesson from her on how not to let skanks break up your marriage
Gloria says she’s not naive but I beg to differ. In my opinion any woman who believes that her man will never succomb to cheating is being very naive. Any man can cheat, not saying all will or that all do, but it is good for a womans heart to leave room for that maybe he will do something. Her biggest mistake was having two kids with a man who hasn’t married her yet, so many people think it’s okay to just be a baby momma, and it’s not, it’s a disgrace. I do not know if Gloria is a real woman but I do know that there are a million and ten women out there with a tighter body than hers that would do Matt some serious damage so instead of her living in this lala world about him being faithful she need to tighten that +_`^$`~#`)`^&+# up, get some posture practice and show Matt that there isn’t anything out there better than what she’s got. I can’t even understand Evelyn or Jenifer or Susie for that matter. Evelyn isn’t much of anything, she was with a guy for ten years who she was only dating and he was cheating on her left and right, she had no children with this man, so in the end who was the dummy ? She looks like the fool for not putting it on him good enough for him to marry her +_`^$`~#`)`^&+# and he looks like the man for being able to string the broad along that damn long. These women are like rats who had a taste of money.
i think gloria should be replaced for next season. Shes a waste of space on the show and shes two faced.
Jens husband is not cute enough to treat her bad…really. Suzie is the bomb, a tru friend.
Wow…this is pretty funny. These women are all hot messes and it’s fun to watch- so true. But it is better to be real and know who you are dealing with than to be a complete phony like Gloria. Real? Classy? LMFAO. Gloria and her sister are KNOWN groupies. Not only was Gloria the jump off for NBA player Baron Davis PRIOR to bedding another player (Matt), but her sister is also a serial NBA gold digger. Back in 2007 Gloria MENDOZA Govan was arrested for taking money for altering grades. Her $+())#`&~*%*$_$&^ ish sister’s texts back and forth to Shaq (dirty, hotel rooms, you know) while he was married and while she was “engaged” to ball player Gilbert Arenas, were published for everyone to see…remember that this is Gloria’s “role model”. Yea- you two are just alike: Unwed baby mamas giving it up to whatever NBA player that will take you. And there most definitely has been rumblings about Matt’s fidelity. He’s a ball player…hardly a shocking revelation. Being a criminal, liar, serial athlete dating, unwed baby mama is FAR from admirable as so many others hysterically wrote on here. Worst of all those things is being a true hypocrite. Those women should be afraid to be seen with the likes of Gloria and her sister…not the other way around. I like my crazy nice and exposed- like Evelyn, Royce and Suzie…not hidden under a veil of straight up phony to strike when you least expect it. Jennifer and Shaunie AT LEAST got those UGLY ball players to put a ring on it. People are so gullible when it comes to falling for someone’s “good girl” act. Sheesh. I love reality TV drama…that’s why we “watch and discuss”. But trying to be holier than thou on a show like this is just setting yourself up to be exposed. You and your husband were not astute enough to realize what you were signing up for? Even when the wife of the man your sister cheated with is asking you to do said TV show? If they are that stupid then they have MUCH larger problems than this show.
Tisk… tisk… tisk…Gloria and her sister. Both low as low get’s and both REALLY KNOWN for what they are and do! Gloria, is Matt your first ball player, HA you are not fooling anybody no, no! You hate on Royce but you… oh my! The only difference between you and Royce is that you are not cute enough to be a dancer, you are just a “regular” groupie right? Audience, please dont be fooled by Gloria, see how ugly both she and her sister are. UGLY GIRLS inside and out!
Gloria please keep ur mouth shut ur an idiot on this show….u talk so much trash about the other ladies but ur worse because RODEL MODEL IS UR SISTER!!!!! are u for real…..the BIGGEST KNOWN `&*()(+#*!`_@!_^! IS UR ROLE MODEL!!!! like i said keep ur mouth shut cause ur an idiot!!!!! dont talk about other women when ur not married urself….ur just another BABY MAMA WITH DRAMA!!!! U AINT MATTS WIFE ….HAHAHAHHAHA…U TRY TO ACT LIKE UR BETTER THAN ROYCE Y BECAUSE U HAD 2 BABIES????

Gloria is a blind !(&@#~$`~#^^^*& `%@!%%#&#~%*$&(#* her man is a cheat!
The only difference between Gloria and the other women is time. I bet Suzie and Evelyn both thought the same things when they got with their men and were probably spouting the same nonsense. Check back in a year and see if she’s saying the same thing.
Gloria,
“Pride is before a crash.” I believe that your appearance of being happily in love with your babies father is a front. In addition, it is “okay” to have a relationship with another woman who’s baby father is a friend with your fiance. I think your fiance does not want you around Royce because he suspects there are some things that her baby father has shared with her. Additionally, I think that is a measure of control, when another person dictates to you who should ^@#`(&#%&$&`!%@ ociate with or with not. Gloria, stopped being a “know it all.” You are only twenty-four, you have life to experience. There are going to be situations where you have to “sleep with the enemy.” You can’t judge someone based on his or her decisions in life.
You say you are envolved with charity work, there are going to be situations where you interact with all types of people; ones that you dislike and like. You can not just push them away. Additionally, the woman on the show are not jealous of you, they have just been in the same position that you are in; engaged or married to a basketball player, and experiencing all the challenges that comes with that lifestyle.
Gloria stop being so judgemental! If you haven’t been to college, go and get a degree. If you have a degree, pursue another degree. Don’t think because you have children that your fiance is going to be faithful. Start focusing on “you” and not groupies or other woman. You say that you are secure in your relationship, but you are not not. When people like “Royce” comes around, you are threaten; which is contrary for a person that is so secure. You have to much pride Gloria, and the bible states that pride is before a crash, and that is the path that you will receive if you don’t open your eyes up and face reality. I hope your fiance or future husband is as happy as you say he is. But what going on in the dark shall come to light. I hope all work out with you Gloria, but thinking people are jealous of you is immature. Good luck.
UMMM, Gloria you’re sister would be indeed the WRONG circle. You think those woman are bad, but your sister slept with a married man. So that makes me wonder about you.
Oh man Gloria, I read your interveiw after my first statement and I think you just keep it all the way real and I love you for that. You don’t have to do anything to make those other women hate you and you can’t make them love you. They hate you because they want to be in your position. That is a circle I wouldn’t want to be a part of. I totally understand why Matt said he is digusted by the show. It shows how sick those women are to go to the extent to say they have evidence of Matt cheating and he’s not faithful. They need to look up life and get one. It keeps playing over and over in my head when they come to dinner at your house and Matt mentions to them not to corrupt Gloria. Little does he know that you’re smarter than all of them even with all of their years on you. They are dummies and very jealous women. Goodluck, Goodluck and Goodluck again with your wedding. Don’t invite those hating ugly chicken heads either, Suzie the vampire and Evelyn the transgender (lol).
Gloria’s a two-faced ****!
This youngin’ shows her immaturity simply be acting like she knows it ALL. I don’t understand why she is even on this show being that she is such a hater.

FYI: Just so you know your fiancee “Matt” was running the streets ALL over the East Bay a few years back when you were prego…he has been anything but faithful to you. Might want to ask him about latinas in California beauty pagents.
I think gloria is a sad case, she has too much pride to admit that she has fears and concerns where her fiance is concerned and i feel sorry for her. Every one including myself knows he has not always been faithful to her.
In the last episode watching her go off on royce was really pathetic. Putting her down and stating that she will never be in their shoes as a wife. Gloria please somebody check this broad she is not a wife she is a baby mama a live in babysitter so to speak should have gotten the ring and the wedding first silly girl, hollah at Royce in August when you really are a wifey and not just a another Oakland projects gone lottery case with a baby by a so called basketball star. Oh and FYI he isnt that good lol word is he wont be around long,
I just think she trys to play like she is so hard and those of us who know her baby daddy personally…..know that she is putting on a super front. Enough said!!!

I don’t see how gloria is not the bad person in this whole thing she is coming in with blinders judging royce for being a cheerleader so what? Gloria comes into this as im a good mom and wife damnit ya but your sister did or did not have an affair is that how your parents raised you? Then you say blood is blood but daym girl you know she was in the wrong…and you your man and royce’s man are on the same team you could like you say be cordial get off your high horse honey karma is a !#&^%`+~@**!+^!@* and you are a perfect candidate to be bit on the !+)_“#)~!&))$% And if you don’t want nobody to talk or boast opinions don’t put it out there.
It’s very sad but i have to agree with Caren. Although Gloria wants to believe that her man is faithful, i think she knows deep down that that is a hard pill to swallow and the REAL reason for her dislike toward Royce is because Royce knows her man is a cheat. (hell royce may have slept with him too…imjustsayin). No one is above cheating especially an attractive rich athelete who gets p***y tossed in his face on a daily basis. Just because you have his children doesnt make him faithful by any means. And yeah all these women are very bitter on the show, but guess what, this may be YOU in 10 years. You may be in Shaunie’s exact shoes, 5 kids later dealing with ~_!%$)_#(+*%()_$~ You are young so before you judge try and understand. P.S. I think you should find a new role model because your sister is a disgrace to women everywhere and should be absolutely ashamed of herself.
GLORIA, I BEG YOU TO LEAVE THIS SHOW.THE SEASON FINALE AS COME AND YOU NEED TO WATCH THIS SHOW. BECAUSE THIS SHOW IS SO GHETTO AND YOU LOOK OUT OF PLACE. ROYCE, I BEG YOU TO OPEN YOUR EYES BECAUSE YOU ARE SURROUNDED BY WOLVES IN SHEEP CLOTHING. JENNIFER, “DO NOT LEAVE YOUR HUSBAND BECAUSE WHEN A WOMAN IS TELLING YOU TO CHEAT ON YOUR HUSBAND OR TO LEAVE HIM THAT MEANS SHE WANT HIM OR SHE ENVY’S WHAT YOU GUYS HAVE AND THATS MARRIAGE. JENNIFER, WISE WORDS FROM WYCLEF JEAN TWO WRONGS DON’T MAKE IT RIGHTS!
Gloria, i wish u & your marriage the best. But i must say you are a mess. The way you just off top had attitude with Royce shows that you are not as together as you claim. You started out talking to her but yet talking about her behind her back. You are a 2-faced chick. I can see you not talking about your sister to anyone, but at the end of the day wrong is wrong. Just know what your sister was suppose to have done could happen to you one day. Evelyn you are one bitter chick and there is no more to say about you. Jennifer & Shaunie i like you two the most and really yall are the only two that should be on the show.
I have to say that this show is very amusing, but Gloria…honey… seriously your attitude is aweful. To judge Royce so harshly as if she is beneath you because you have a ring on your finger is disgusting. That ring is a promise that he may marry you. Remember some people break their promises. With that being stated… Then you’ll just be a baby momma like the rest of them. Sleeping with a ball player doesn’t make you royal or give you any kind of class or a real rank in high society. As a matter of fact at the end of the day all of you “wives” are no bodies to the rest of society. Just pieces on the arms of sports players. Wow i hope that isn’t considered a milestone or an accomplishment. SMH. At 23 you should be discovering yourself and traveling the world, not worrying about all the other BS that comes with living in that world.
For someone to call someone a groupie and disrespect other women because of who they are is just out right disgusting, you may need to look at yourself, your not married, so you’re not even a basketball wife. And just like Royce you have a children by a basketball player. Your only a fiance’, come on give me a break. You’ve basically did the same thing except you weren’t a dancer. Then what are you? What do you do besides live with a basketball player? Stop putting your nose up so high, you may drown in bad rain storm….
To tell the truth Gloria you and jen was the only two that had any class on the show shanie always seem to want to about shaq and your sister ask her *@@^$+@()))_((( about her and her personal trainer she slept with during relationship with shaq
Why is this show called basketball wives only one of them are married Jennifer, who is a idiot for staying with that arrogant UGLY man Eric williams Jen take the $$$ you deserve for being able to stomach this Ugly man and go get yourself a man that deserves you, Gloria
do you honestly believe Matt is faithful on the road if so I have some swamp land to sell you.royce grow up and be a mother to your son not DANCER.
Gloria is no better than anyone else. If she was so much better and proper than the rest, why have two kids before getting married? It seems like there was some insecurity on her part to up and get pregnant without getting married. It’s just a sure way to get security (CASH) for herself/kids at least till the kids turn 18. …And how dare Matt bash the show. If he was so into Gloria, why hasn’t he married her already – why wait till August? If he was so proper himself and hold himself and Gloria in such high regards (better than the show), then why didn’t he marry her a while ago and why was she on the show? Seems like to me Gloria has a hidden agenda. Matt and Gloria are both judgmental and if Gloria really liked Royce, she would still be her friend, regardless. She wanted to lift herself up by talking down about Royce whom she is not better than. Matt and Gloria are nothing but hypocrites.
Oh my! Girlfriend PLLEASE!!! I believe u came on the show to prove to the world that u r better than the others. Sorry-mission not accomplished. All u showed me was a bitter, insecure, immature lil girl. I am not impressed. U need to b concerned with ur fam and not b so concerned with what everyone else is doing or not doing. At the end of the day u r responsible for urself not Suzie Q or Joe Bob. Remember that-u jus might get somewhere then. Time to put on the big girl panties!
Gloria, i think you just came off as a cold hearted `%_%`*)~$)**&#$#^ with the situation with Shaunie, i understand your loyalty to your sister, but her being a friend, you should have felt for her, and been able feel and understand her pain even though your loyalty was to your sister. If you think you were portrayed as being shy and in the background, and i saw you to be a `%_%`*)~$)**&#$#^ i would hate to see you at your full potential. Reflect of this, years back Shaunie and Shaq were right here you and Matt are now, so what happens when in 5 years or 10 years (since yours so pround to be 10 years younger and everyone is just jealous and bitter of your relationship with Matt) when you are in the exact same position that Shaunie is in now, and what if the other woman is indeed the sister of a friend? What would you say then? Just how its her today, it could be you tomorrow……..don’t be a `%_%`*)~$)**&#$#^ Learn how to be a “real” friend!
