Dwight Howard’s Wife, Amy Luciani, Files for Divorce Just Six Months After Wedding

In a surprising turn of events, Amy Luciani has filed for divorce from NBA star Dwight Howard, just six months after their January 2025 wedding.

Court documents filed on July 1 in Georgia describe the marriage as “irretrievably broken” with “no prospects for reconciliation.”

The couple had gotten engaged in December 2024 and tied the knot shortly after, but their whirlwind romance now appears to be over. According to reports by TMZ, Luciani is seeking alimony and a fair division of their marital assets.

Amy Luciani had previously stood by Howard during public controversies, including accusations regarding his parenting, showing her support and loyalty at the time.

In a related update, the U.S. government has warned green card holders, including Nigerians, about stricter enforcement of immigration laws. According to the U.S. embassy, individuals with criminal records may lose their permanent resident status and face deportation.

Offenses involving fraud, dishonesty, or extended time outside the U.S. without valid documentation could lead to the forfeiture of their residency. U.S. Customs and Border Protection also noted that returning residents with prior convictions might face detention.

These developments reflect an ongoing tightening of U.S. immigration and family law enforcement.
