Jean Muggli Michael Strahan
Jean was previously married to Michael Strahan, who is an American television personality and former professional football player. Before his marriage to Jean, Michael was married to Wanda Hutchins, an interior designer, decorator, and businesswoman. They had a son and daughter together but got divorced in 1996.
After his first marriage ended, Michael met Jean at a spa and they got married in 1999. They welcomed twin daughters named Isabella and Sophia in 2004. However, reports suggest that Michael and Jean separated a year after their twins were born.
When Michael filed for divorce, Jean publicly accused him of having a mistress and being an abusive husband. Michael denied these claims and released a statement saying that he loved his children and would continue to be a good father figure. He also stated that he would respect Jean’s privacy and not contribute to a public spectacle of their private matter.
Michael and Jean found themselves facing off in court yet again. This time around, Michael started the proceedings as the father of four was seeking sole custody of their twins even though they had co-parented for years. As a part of Michael’s petition for sole custody, he accused Jean of emotionally and physically abusing their twin daughters. On top of that, Michael
Despite the accusations that were being thrown around at that time, Michael and Jean agreed to continue sharing custody of their daughters. As a part of that deal, Jean agreed to move from her North Carolina home to a New York City apartment so the kids could be close to him. The kids were also court-ordered to therapy, per Michael’s request, but later accusations by his lawyers suggest that Jean failed to take the children to their appointments. For her part, Jean claimed Michael had not paid the court-ordered child support, while other sources suggest he never missed an $18K payment in 13 years.
Their relationship is certainly not in a good place following their split years ago, and it likely never will be.
Jean Muggli Marianne Ayer
In 2021, Muggli found herself in the headlines once again. Before that, Muggli had been involved with a woman named Marianne Ayer, but their relationship did not last long. Their break-up must have not sat well with Muggli, because her entire demeanor changed following the split.
According to Ayer, Muggli began harassing her following their breakup. The harassment was bad enough that Ayer felt the need to take legal action against Muggli, and she filed for protection to keep Muggli away from her. Even though Ayer got an order of protection against Muggli, that was not the end of things. In June 2021, Muggli was arrested for violating the order for protection that Ayer had against her. She had reportedly showed up at Ayer’s residence in New York City.
Recently, there haven’t been any updates about Muggli facing any serious criminal consequences of the arrest. However, according to TMZ, Ayer has accused Muggli of grand larceny, disorderly conduct, harassment, coercion, and forcible touching. The dispute is likely being handled quietly to keep the public out of Ayer and Muggli’s lives.
