Five months after filing for divorce, Trevor Ariza’s wife is asking for the court’s help. Bree Anderson reportedly married the former Los Angeles Lakers star in 2018, but in September, she officially requested to end her marriage. TMZ stated Anderson listed the reason for the split as “irreconcilable differences,” but RadarOnline reports she wants a restraining order against her ex. The outlet stated they looked at court documents that revealed Anderson’s accusations of domestic abuse.
Anderson is said to have filed a petition requesting the courts order Ariza to not only stay away from her but to block him from contacting her, as well. The pair share two children, and in her initial divorce filing, Anderson said she wanted physical and legal custody of the kids. In her new paperwork, she claimed she “fears for her safety” and doesn’t want Ariza in or near her home.

Additionally, Anderson agreed to Ariza’s visitation with the children, but she asked for it to be supervised. She also noted that her ex “engaged in acts of extreme physical abuse towards me.” Anderson wrote, “He was verbally and emotionally abusive to me. Some of the abuse occurred in the presence of our children.”
Further, Anderson explained that she didn’t leave her husband in the past because she was finally dependent on Ariza. When she filed for divorce, Anderson hoped the alleged abuse would cease. However, she claimed it didn’t help her situation and said Ariza “threatens [her] on a regular basis.” The ex-Laker reportedly called her a “hoe” and “b*tch” with their kids nearby. Because he lives less than a mile from her residence, she is concerned for her safety.

Anderson also alleged that Ariza had gone into her home without permission. She also stated that Ariza won’t pay child support and has threatened to take their children from her. “He thinks he has the right to come and go from my residence as he pleases,” she said. Anderson accused her ex of throwing her onto a bed before choking her. In another incident, she claimed he repeatedly punched her. She referenced a text message where the baller allegedly admitted to being physically violent. Ariza has not answered his wife’s allegations publicly.
