Now the term basketball wife actually means something for reality star Gloria Govan who snuck off to the historic Little Church Of The West in Las Vegas and married her long time boo and baby’s daddy Matt Barnes. About time. Details inside…
According to The Las Vegas Review Journal the two were spotted in the chapel exchanging vows and to further prove they actually got married you can see the pic of the actual marriage license over at Necole Bitchie.
Prior to getting married the couple did a cover story for Rolling Out magazine claiming that they weren’t ready for marriage but I guess that changed quickly. See some excerpts from their interview below:
Gloria Govan On Her 8-Month Break From Matt:
“I grew so much over those eight months. Now I have to be like, ‘Uh uh, I know I used to like that because you liked it but I said all that to be cute for you! I don’t like eggs mother—!’” “So now he’s really getting to now me. That’s fun.”
On Marrying Matt:
“It’s not that we’re not interested; it’s just not now,” says a pre-wedding Govan. “I don’t think it’ll be what people are expecting. I’ll probably be like ‘hey, I got married girl,’ wanna come to the party? I’ll probably send out a flyer for the party.”
On A Non Traditional Wedding:
“Matt’s a traditionalist so he’ll want a big wedding. Which I would do [for him], but it won’t be like a Kim Kardashian wedding. It’ll be like, ‘you want some barbecue?’ I’ll take cereal. Marriage is something I want to do it’s just not on my number one priority list.”
On The Possibility Of Another Baby:
“Maybe, don’t tell him I said this…maybe another baby. If it was up to him… (rolls eyes)…I get baby fever and then I see a baby and I’m like ‘awww’ and then they start crying and I’m like, ‘Yeah! I don’t have anymore!’”
On Previously Saying She’d Like To Slap Evelyn Lozada:
“Absolutely [I stick by that.] My feelings are what they are to Evelyn, I don’t like to kick anyone while they’re down but…I think they’re a cute couple I honestly do [Chad and Evelyn] and I know Chad really loves her. Mainly I hope they keep people out of their relationship. That’s what I’ve had to do.”
On Jackie Christie:
“Jackie Christie has a mouth piece on her, she’ll make a paraplegic feel bad for her. The way way she kind of suckers you in with her words; she’ll give you so many compliments to the point that you’re like ‘damn, okay!’ [extends arms] Give me a hug girl! She’s someone you have to accept, she’s like a beauty mark or a birthmark. It’s like ‘damn that sh— terrible, but it’s there. You work around it.”
Well congrats to the newlyweds.
