Dwight Howard’s ugly divorce drama caught on body cam

Bodycam footage captures the contentious split between NBA star Dwight Howard and his ex-wife, offering a rare glimpse into their tumultuous divorce proceedings.

Dwight Howard and his wife Amber Howard’s marriage had already been the subject of a 911 call obtained last week. Now, police body cam footage recorded on March 6 at the couple’s Gwinnett County, Georgia estate is adding new detail to a domestic situation that appears to have been building for some time. Howard filed for divorce three days after the incident, on March 9.

The footage, obtained by TMZ, captures the couple during a tense police visit and reveals a household in clear distress, with disputes over property access, a deceased dog, Howard’s 15-year-old daughter, and the NBA star’s decision to retire all surfacing in a single recorded encounter

Howard filed for divorce on March 9, three days after the body cam footage was recorded. Neither Howard nor Amber Howard has made a formal public statement beyond what was captured in the footage, and the divorce proceedings are in their early stages. Howard’s representative has pushed back on at least one claim made in the footage, specifically the suggestion that CPS was involved with his daughter.
