Russell Wilson's Ex-wife Ashton Meem Living Under The Radar: Works At An Insurance company
The gorgeous 31-year-old Ashton Meem was living a fairy tale life when she married the handsome Seattle Seahawks football star Russell Wilson back in 2012.
But this happiness didn't last that long as Wilson filed for a divorce in 2014.
Wilson said,
"I have made the difficult decision to file for divorce. Clearly, decisions like these don't come easy. Ashton and I respectfully ask for prayers, understanding, and privacy during this difficult time. Moving forward, I will have no further comment on this matter."
Talking about their divorce, Meem told Seattle's Tom & Curley Show,
"Honestly, we just try to keep our home life as normal as possible. We just try and keep it real, realize what my husband does is a job, it can change at any minute, and what really matters is we don't change no matter what changes around our environment."
As per the sources, Meem was having an affair with former Seahawks wide receiver Golden Tate which was the sole reason for her divorce.
And now, her ex-husband has already moved on with singer, Ciara and it seems like she's not affected at all by this scenario.
Instead, she's creating a buzz around when Russell and Ciara got engaged, Ashton boldly changed her Twitter profile to her diamond engagement ring that Russell gave her which was a sparkling 8-carat rock!
Apparently, Ciara's diamond ring was a tad bit smaller than Ashton but with better detailing and quality. Although the tantrum thrown by footballer's ex-wife caused a stir, the news finally faded away.
Now, Meem's living under the radar and works as an Advertising Operations Assistant in an American Family Insurance Company. Russell, on the other hand, is happily married to singer Ciara. The couple who tied the knot on 6th July 2016 and welcomed their first child, daughter Sienna Princess Wilson on 28 April 2017.
