Damian Lillard’s ex-wife criticizes GloRilla after his DUI arrest and suggestive photo, revealing their rift
The user Kay’La Lillard has joined the conversation.
Two months after GloRilla’s DUI arrest in Gwinnett County, Georgia, on Tuesday—two months after the Memphis rapper professed interest in the Bucks’ star guard—Damian Lillard’s estranged wife made jokes about the incident.
GloRilla’s purported mugshot was re-shared by Kay’La on her Instagram Stories on Wednesday. The image included the comment “FreeGloLillard” along with an emoticon of a sobbing laughing person.
Along with an emoji of a shrugging shoulder, Kay’La included the phrase “#sisterwife.”
GloRilla, whose real name is Gloria Hallelujah Woods, was taken into custody early on Tuesday morning on suspicion of drinking or possessing an open container of an alcoholic beverage as well as another traffic offense.
During this year’s NBA All-Star festivities, the topic of GloRilla and Lillard—who filed for divorce on October 2, 2023, following two years of marriage—came up.

She shared a picture of herself with the 33-year-old Lillard at the time, expressing interest in becoming the MVP of the 2024 All-Star Game.
GloRilla wrote on X, “Whoever she is can’t whoop me so I really dgaf”
Lillard answered, “No comment,” when TMZ questioned him last month about whether he contacted GloRilla after receiving the message.
This month, GloRilla also played coy when Shannon Sharpe brought up a message she posted on X during an interview for the podcast “Club Shay Shay.”

The 24-year-old rapper declared, “At the end of the day, the day gon’ end.”
“OK I’ma leave it at that,” Sharpe replied. “Because he said no comment [and] you said, ‘Hey at the end of the day, it’s the end of the day.’”
After being college sweethearts, Lillard and Kay’La got married in September 2021.
