“I’ve chosen to prioritize myself and my family, moving forward towards a future where I am valued, treated with honesty, and free to embrace the happiness and respect I deserve,” wrote Tracey Edmonds while announcing her breakup with Deion Sanders. ‘Neon Deion’ and Edmonds met in 2012 and were engaged in 2019, but their relationship ended abruptly last week. However, Edmonds isn’t moping around and is giving her all to bring in the festive cheer for the holidays.

On December 12, the 56-year-old businesswoman posted a video on her Instagram account that showed her hanging decorations on her Christmas tree. She was wearing a beautiful green dress that was indicative of the Christmas season.
