It looks like it’s SPLITSVILLE for RHOP alum’s Monique Samuels & former NFL star Chris Samuels!
Multiple sources confirmed to PEOPLE that the Real Housewives of Potomac alum, 39, and the former NFL player are splitting after 10 years of marriage.
The couple share three children, sons Christopher, 9, and Chase, 3, and daughter Milani, 7.
The Samuels’ relationship issues were well on display during the first season of Love & Marriage: D.C.. A second season for the OWN reality show has been announced, with Monique expected to be on the show.
Monique does not want the fans to think reality TV doomed her union:
“We had lost all of the dating in our marriage. Once we started filming reality TV, it actually helped us because it forced us to date,” she added. “So we were able to get out, just reignite that intimacy and be excited about each other. So I will not lie, season 2 of RHOP saved my marriage. And at the end of the day, sometimes you still have to come back to those moments. Because some of the things that I expressed on Love & Marriage: DC, people who watched Potomac saw I had those same concerns back then. So it’s not like this is something new.”
