Despite Discovering 18+ Truth After First Meeting, Timberwolves Legend Reveals Why He Married OnlyFans Model

The messiest drama social media is watching unfold right now is Joe Smith’s marriage. As the estranged spouses expose each other’s pasts, the retired NBA pro was sharing his side of the story on VladTV. Contrary to how they’re putting each other on blast, the former Minnesota Timberwolves star was reminiscing about the honeymoon phase in this interview.

The recent days have been turbulent for Smith and his estranged wife, Kisha Chavis. That didn’t stop him from reliving the nicer moments at the start of their relationship. This time, the former player was candid about what made him take the plunge.

Joe Smith reveals the origin of his relationship

Joe Smith’s 16-year-long NBA career was nothing to be scoffed at. But it’s his off-the-court and post-retirement life that’s kept him in the spotlight. In recent history, he’s been in a public spat with his wife, Kisha Chavis, regarding their explicit pasts.

Smith was apparently outraged after discovering Chavis had an OnlyFans page during their marriage. However, on VladTV, he would claim that her adult-content past was not a dealbreaker initially.

The former journeyman said he was aware Chavis was working in adult films when they first met. But that didn’t deter him from marrying her. “You know when I find someone I really feel I can trust, feel like I have a bond with, someone I feel like you know I can share things with, you know I feel like why not take it to the next level?” Smith disclosed.

They had met in 2012 at a BET Awards party and began dating shortly after. In this same interview, he said that he found out about his former career the same night they met. “I never looked at her any different,” he claimed. After that first meeting, they kept in touch and built a relationship from there.

He’d go on to reveal that he had discussed marriage and the future with Chavis from the get-go and both were on board with it. They have been married since 2018 in a wedding that featured on Say Yes to the Dress. Kisha Chavis went down the show’s history for taking a pregnancy test during her dress fittings.

Smith is a father of two children from a previous relationship. He also famously dated?Love & Hip-Hop?star, Moniece Slaughter and had other public relationships before Chavis.

This is the only the latest in the saga of Joe Smith and Kisha Chavis’ drama. While he’s saying he had no problem with her past, she claimed their current situation won’t end their marriage.
