Darren Waller is currently facing vicious online trolling after his wife, Kelsey Plum, shared her stunning Skims photo shoot. Less than a year after their marriage, the couple filed for divorce last month.
This comes as Kim Kardashian’s shapewear brand SKIMS partnered with the Women’s National Basketball Association (WNBA), featuring basketball players Candace Parker, Cameron Brink, and Kelsey Plum in a seductive new commercial. This partnership follows criticism of the brand’s previous campaign for not including female athletes.
On Monday morning, SKIMS announced its partnership with the WNBA as its “official underwear partner,” just in time for the start of the season. To celebrate, several basketball players, including Las Vegas Aces star Kelsey Plum, posed in pieces from the brand’s Fits Everybody underwear collection.

Plum’s pictures gained significant attention, inevitably bringing up Darren Waller in the conversation.
Besides Plum, other athletes showcased their toned physiques, flaunting strapless bandeaus and matching underwear.
WNBA champion Kelsey Plum and NFL tight end Darren Waller filed for divorce after one year of marriage. In April, the couple filed a joint petition for divorce in Clark County, Nevada.
Following the filing, Plum shared a heartfelt message on social media: “I’m devastated. I walked through fire for that man, but now I see it’s time to go,” she wrote on Instagram Stories.
“God has given me an incredible life, and I’m truly so grateful for the profound love from my family and friends,” she continued. “One day, I’ll share my story; today is not that day. Thank you for the grace to process my pain, to forgive and move forward. Today and every day, I will continue to choose joy. Much love, KP.”
Waller, a former Las Vegas Raiders player, and Plum, a two-time WNBA champion with the Aces, began dating and were together for almost a year before marrying on March 4, 2023. The Las Vegas Review-Journal reported that Plum and Waller applied for a marriage license on January 22, 2023.
Shortly after their marriage, Waller was traded to the New York Giants. Many speculated that former head coach Josh McDaniels orchestrated the trade in retaliation for not being invited to the wedding.
