Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill is at the center of controversy following domestic violence allegations made by his wife, Keeta Vacarro, in court documents related to their divorce.
Domestic Violence Accusations
Vacarro alleges eight separate incidents of domestic violence, according to documents obtained by TMZ. Hill’s lawyer has called the allegations an attempt at “blackmail” and a strategy to damage the player’s image.The first incident, according to Vacarro, occurred in January 2024, two months after his marriage to Hill.The accusations are part of a “blackmail” and an attempt to generate bad media coverage.So far, Hill has not been formally charged, and it is not clear if the authorities are investigating Vacarro’s allegations.The divorce petition was filed on April 8, one day after the police reported a domestic altercation between Hill and Vacarro.
Previous Incidents and Million Dollar Contract
Hill, who is in the second year of his restructured three-year, $90 million contract with the Dolphins, has been involved in several off-field incidents since joining the team in 2022.Among these incidents is his arrest for speeding and reckless driving last September, hours before the start of the 2024 season, and a fight with an employee of Haulover Marina in June 2023.Furthermore, he faces a lawsuit for allegedly breaking an influencer’s leg in the same month.
