Russell Wilson is often recognized as Mr. Ciara these days, but his football career began long before he met the “1,2 Step” hitmaker. Initially, Wilson was married to Ashton Meem, a relationship that only lasted two years. It appears that the former Mrs. Wilson has some lingering feelings about her ex-husband and his new partner.
Russell Wilson and Ashton Meem reportedly met in their late teens. Meem recalls their initial connection in high school and a subsequent encounter at a summer party a few months later. They began dating, and for a while, they maintained a long-distance relationship as they attended different colleges. Eventually, Ashton transferred to be closer to Russell. The couple got engaged in August 2010. Russell Wilson has shared details about the elaborate plans he arranged for his proposal, which included a quiet lobby full of people.
Their wedding took place in 2012, but they couldn’t go on a honeymoon due to Wilson’s NFL training at the IMG Academy in Bradenton, Florida. Three months later, he was selected by the Seattle Seahawks and signed a four-year, $2.99 million contract. Unfortunately, the couple decided to end their marriage in 2014, leading to a divorce shortly afterward. Russell released a statement, expressing the difficulty of the decision and requesting prayers, understanding, and privacy during that challenging time. He also indicated that he would refrain from further comments on the matter.
Subsequently, Russell found lasting love with Ciara, and they are now married and raising their three children. When Ashton learned of Russell and Ciara’s engagement, she changed her Twitter profile picture to display her own engagement ring from Wilson. Many people considered this action as petty. Ciara has her own experience with a former partner, rapper Future, who has not shied away from expressing his sentiments about Ciara moving on in his songs and videos.
Ashton appeared to enjoy Future’s content and was observed liking one of his pictures from several weeks ago. Although the like has since been removed, Meem certainly attracted attention, with fans acknowledging her interaction on Future’s post. Russell Wilson and Ciara have generally refrained from providing their exes with the satisfaction of public responses. They have occasionally addressed the situation, but for the most part, they focus on themselves and their children. However, this hasn’t prevented Future and Ashton from making headlines.
In a yet-to-be-released song from last year, Future alluded to having an ongoing situation with Ciara. Meanwhile, Ashton continues to go viral for other reasons. An old photo of her reacting to Russell Wilson’s draft night is brought up almost every year, with fans resurfacing it. They humorously mention, “In honor of the NFL Draft, may we never forget the night when Russell Wilson’s ex-wife thought she was set for life,” alongside the wide-mouthed expression in the photo.
Ciara has maintained a high road approach and has not responded publicly to Ashton’s posts or her liking of Future’s content on social media. The singer continues to focus on her own life and career.
