Baltimore Ravens veteran offensive lineman Ben Cleveland filed for divorce from his wife, Kaitlyn, earlier this offseason and cited adultery as the reason in the filing. ...
And the battle is raging on in the courtroom.
Cleveland, a 26-year-old guard who has started seven games over four seasons, submitted documents in Baldwin County, Georgia, on Feb. 28. According to reports, Cleveland lists the official date of his formal separation from Kaitlyn as Dec. 29, 2024.
The couple was married in 2022.
The initially divorce filling came just two weeks after Cleveland was arrested for suspicion of drunk driving in Georgia. A police report indicates that Cleveland’s black pickup truck left the roadway at one point. The truck then turned “and entered the opposite lane of travel, nearly going into the ditch.”
Cleveland agreed to a blood-alcohol test, and reportedly blew a .178, which is over the legal limit in Georgia.
In her most recent filing, Kaitlin stated that she is hopeful the former couple can come to an agreement to solve the “matters and controversies” that surround the divorce and breakup.
She also requested that the judge equitably split the couple’s assets and grant her alimony in the event they are otherwise unable to reach an agreement.
The third-round draft pick from 2021 proposed to his wife in Las Vegas two years of dating. In 2022 he wrote on his social media, "2 years and then some until you’re actually my wife. Not sure, we haven’t really started wedding planning yet and we’ve been engaged 6 months so that’s on her. But she’s gonna be my wife so that’s kinda cool.”
According to US Weekly magazine, Kaitlyn shared a series of photos from the Virgin Islands on Feb. 7. She captioned the series, “A one-way flight has never sounded better.”
