Sheawna Weathersby has officially confirmed her separation from Kansas City Chiefs star Chris Jones. On Thursday, March 13th, Weathersby took to her Instagram Story to announce the breakup, accusing her now-former partner of infidelity during their nine-year relationship. "As I close this chapter of a nine-year relationship, I'm choosing to focus on the positives," she penned. "Regrettably, Chris's recent infidelity with the woman he was pictured with led to my decision to terminate our relationship months ago."
In her heartfelt and detailed post, Weathersby further expressed her sense of "disrespect" stemming from the "troubling" actions of others, yet emphasized her determination to look ahead, prioritizing her own well-being and growth. "I am proud to say that I chose to prioritize my own healing journey and wellbeing," she added. "As I embark on this fresh chapter, I am filled with excitement for the opportunities and growth that lie ahead. I trust in God's ability to transform my pain into something beautiful."
Multiple media outlets reported that Jones, aged 30, had posted a picture of himself with a woman licking his face on his Instagram account on Tuesday, March 11th, before deactivating his profile. Earlier in January, Jones insisted he was single, sharing a meme captioned "I'm like 106% single" and confirming his single status in the comments when questioned about the meme.
Weathersby and Jones, believed to have started dating in November 2015, share two sons together: Christopher Jones II, nicknamed "Deuce," born in 2018, and Carson Dakota Jones, born in 2022. Jones has remained tight-lipped about the split and the rumored new romance.
On Wednesday, March 13th, the athlete posted a cryptic message on his social media, stating, "It's okay to disappear to find yourself again," accompanied by the caption, "Sincerely," leaving much to the imagination.
Weathersby has been a steadfast supporter of Jones throughout his sporting career, often spotted alongside Taylor Swift and the wives and girlfriends of other Chiefs players, cheering from a private box during games. In September, she posed with Swift, who was cheering on her boyfriend Travis Kelce, and shared the moments on Instagram. Chariah Gordon, engaged to Chiefs wide receiver Mecole Hardman Jr., was also part of the joyous snapshots. "The score's never even. We're always up 1," Weathersby captioned an Instagram carousel featuring the women posing in the suite, backed by a poster for Swift's record-breaking Eras Tour, adding a vivid layer to their camaraderie and joy.
