Joe Smith, a former NBA player and No. 1 overall pick, and his wife Kisha Chavis have opened up about their relationship struggles, acknowledging that their issues extend beyond Kisha's OnlyFans career. In an interview on "TMZ Live," Kisha discussed the viral video in which Joe learned about her NSFW side business and explained that it represents just a portion of their challenges.
The couple has been together for nearly 13 years, with Kisha having a successful singing career overseas before she met Joe. Initially, they thought they would become a power couple, but their journey took a different path. Joe faced difficulties as he left the NBA, leading to financial struggles. Kisha sought out various opportunities to generate income, but the COVID-19 pandemic also negatively impacted their financial stability.
Kisha believes that Joe fell into a state of depression after transitioning from being a top NBA draft pick to joblessness. Instead of proactively pursuing a new career, he became inactive. Consequently, Kisha decided to engage in her OnlyFans endeavor, explaining that it was a decision she made to improve their lives during a challenging period. She expressed her love for Joe and her hope that he would understand her perspective. While she acknowledged the possibility of being alone, she remained optimistic that their marriage would not end in divorce, stating, "I don't think we'll have a divorce, I don't think so. I think he'll come around."
