HOW THEY HIT IT OFF
The couple, who reportedly went to college together, reconnected after Barnes finalized his divorce with his ex-wife, Gloria Govan, in 2018. They hit it off instantly and Sims got pregnant with their son.
Barnes and Sims parted ways in December 2018. The former NBA star wanted the split to be amicable and hoped they could remain friends because his divorce with Govan was pretty messy and public.

A BITTER PAST
When Sims was pregnant with his child, Barnes and his ex-wife had a pretty public spat again. Govan also wanted to reclaim custody of their twin sons.
In 2018, Govan was arrested for felony child endangerment after she had a fight with Barnes at their children's school. Barnes was then granted full custody of their twins.
