Tiki Barber needs a hug. At the moment he’s unlikely to get one from his fiancee, who is probably not thrilled with the fact that her wedding plans have been pushed back. Barber, who was supposed to marry Traci Lynn Johnson in May of 2012, is reportedly locked up in an unresolved divorce with his ex-wife, Ginny. According to the NY Post, Barber and Johnson’s wedding plans are on hold until a divorce settlement can be reached.
“Tiki and Traci cannot get married until the divorce with Ginny is settled, and it’s taking longer than they expected to reach a settlement,” the Post’s source explained. “Traci may have got a little too excited and ahead of herself with the wedding arrangements.”
Well, duh — the guy’s still married. Barber reportedly is unable to afford Ginny’s alimony demand and the case is currently help up in Manhattan Supreme Court. It’s only a matter of time before Tiki is living in his parents’ basement to prove to the court that he can’t afford to meet his ex-wife’s financial demands.
One thing we do know is that it can’t be easy being Tiki right now. After a summer in which he targeted an NFL return only to find out the hard way that absolutely no one was interested in his services, Barber is just looking to move on with his life. Maybe he was planning a comeback because he’s low on cash. Perhaps his new lady will lend him some money so she can get on with planning her special day? We’ll know in time.
