Baller Wives is an American reality television series that premiered August 14, 2017 on VH1. It chronicles the lives of a group of women who are the wives and girlfriends, or have been romantically linked to, professional football players in the National Football League, though the title of the series does not make this differentiation, solely referring to the women as "wives".

Cast[edit]

Main[edit]

  • Kijafa and Michael Vick-Have been married since 2012 and have two beautiful daughters and a new baby on the way. Kijafa is the Queen Bee of the ladies and knows everyone's secrets. Since being the self-proclaimed "Queen Bee" she clashes with some of the ladies within the group.
  • Stacey and Chris Chambers-Stacey and Chris Chambers, a retired wide receiver for Miami, are happily married and expecting their second child. Big believers on taking an unconventional approach, Stacey finds herself in a heated disagreement with Kijafa and has formed her own alliances within the circle.
  • Miko and Brent Grimes- Miko, wife of Tampa Bay cornerback Brent Grimes, is restarting her career after recently being let go from her long-running sports radio show. She and Brent have a son together and have been married for seven years. With his training schedule, Miko has to deal with Brent's absence leading up to the new season.
  • Jeniva and Asante Samuel-Jeniva finds her husband, two-time champion Asante Samuel, eager to start a new career as a boxer. With professional football behind him, Jeniva thought her years of worrying about Asante's safety were over until he decides to start a new career in a different sport.
  • Aja and Channing Crowder-Played as a linebacker for Miami and is now a sports radio host. This couple finds themselves in the middle of the drama with Miko after she is fired from the radio station where Channing works.
  • Kelly and Julius Jones-Have been married for eight years and have two sons together. A former Dallas running back, Julius is adamantly against his sons playing football, much to the boys' dismay.
