NFL star Russell Wilson has discovered an unlikely ally in rapper Waka Flocka Flame. Wilson continues to get a bad rep from men who cannot get how his good guy persona helped him bag such a energetic woman.
While numerous clown Russell for being a “square” and “lame,” not so far divorced Wake Flocka has something to say about so many grown men speaking on Russell’s family.
Russell Wilson has really done no wrong on paper. After starting his NFL career in 2012 with his ex wife, Ashton Meem, Wilson quickly discovered success and status.
The 2 were only together for two years but divorced in 2014 for unknown reasons. He would eventually discover himself in the company of “Goodies” hitmaker Ciara and quickly swooped her off her feet.
Ciara had just got out of her connection with rapper Future, who had left her heartbroken and single with a kid.
Ciara’s history of dating rappers like Bow Wow and 50 Cent made Russell Wilson a curious choice for her, but the star has since talked about “praying” for clarity around the men she’s dated and re-accessing her choices around connections.
Russell immediately got clowned, considered by numerous to be a lame compared to Cici’s “usual type.” In contrast, the NFLer’s former-wife is nothing like Ciara either.
Russell has leaned into his good-boy reputation and has used it to become one of the most favourite players in the league.
In 2020 he was named Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year “in recognition of his COVID-19 relief donations and his founding of a charter school, among other charitable efforts.”
Him and his wife Ciara have become known for their charitable efforts and even started a foundation called Why Not You Foundation.
They were awarded $250,000 by the Walter Payton organization. Speaking on the honor he told, “In life, we’re granted the chancea to have an impact, no matter what sphere of influence we’re around.”
