Allen Iverson’s soon to be ex-wife Tawana has accused the former NBA star of leaving her penniless. Tawana has filed court documents claiming she is unable to provide for their 5 kids while AI is dropping major cash on new diamonds. TMZ has the details:
Tawanna claims the account was $23,000 in the red at the time she filed the court docs — and she’s been unable to pay the bills … or provide for their 5 kids.
According to Tawanna — who says she gave up her career to be a stay-at-home mom — Allen is worth over $20 million … and refuses to help her out simply out of spite.
Ladies, I think it’s always important to have some sort of way to support yourself and your children in case of emergency. Not just because he might leave you, but also a day may come where you need to hold down the family (lost of employment, injury etc.) Hmph… this is why women are encouraged to keep a secret account.
