Tyreek Hill has made clear he remains happily married despite filing for divorce

Miami Dolphins star Tyreek Hill is blaming people working on his behalf for filing a divorce petition from his wife, Keeta Vaccaro Hill.

Hill, 29, married his long-time fiancee last November midway through the NFL regular season. But two months later, he was shocked to see his and his wife's names in Broward County court records on Monday.

It is the latest episode in their tumultuous relationship after Hill had two paternity lawsuits for child support filed against him in December from two different women who allegedly gave birth to children fathered by him last year. Then, in early January, one of his children playing with a lighter caused a fire at his mansion in Florida that required extinguishing by emergency services.

Addressing the latest story on Thursday, he explained during a live stream on Twitch that it was all a mix-up. "Now, a lot of people been in my business lately, me and Kee's business," Hill said, referencing his wife.

"And I just gotta say that it sucks; a lot of our stuff is public record, but behind closed doors, a lot of people got fired too for just doing things without our yes. It sucks that me and my wife (have to) go through that.

"Like, yeah, public records say it, and right now, we're in a spot of fixing it. I fired the f****** bonehead that made that mistake. Now it sucks."

Hill had initially denied filing for divorce in reply to media reports about the court records. "Boy, no the heck we didn’t (file), so don’t put that in the air!!! We are happily married and (are) gon' stay that way," he posted on X, formerly known as Twitter.

Later that day, he shared a mirror selfie on Instagram of him and his wife, who had her hand holding his arm. Hill spoke openly about their wedding with local reporters when returning to the Dolphins locker room after the team's week off last November.

"It was about time, man," he said. "It's something that we wanted to do over the bye week, and we did it. We went through with it. I finally went through with it."

He recalled: "Kind of just me and her and our family members. With weddings, Cheetah (the nickname Hill received after his rookie season with the Kansas City Chiefs, referencing the receiver being one of the quickest players in the NFL) is the star of the show, and it's my job to allow her to do her thing. I just want to see her smile."

Hill added: "I feel like I'm at the stage in my career now where I've got to be more mature with anything I do outside of football. It's being a father, it's being a son, a husband now."

"I've got to stand in that role of being the man my grandparents raised me to be. I'm loving it."
