Divorces can get so ugly, esp. when it’s a celebrity or a lot of money is involved. Deion Sanders divorce from Pilar has made a ton of different headlines from abuse claims to the custody of the children. Now we have another angle. A witness has come forward alleging that Deion had helping hiding money so Pilar couldn’t take it during the divorce.
Details after the jump…
Via COT:
Enter Texas native Nikke Sanni. Nikke claims to have been in a relationship with gospel star Fred Hammond for 2-years, and is preparing to testify about a meeting she says took place in early 2011, during which Deion allegedly sought advice on what to do with his money to create the illusion that he’s not as well off as many believe. Her story is pretty shocking (particularly who’s involved), and we have our own opinions about her accusations, but read on so you can formulate your own.
Did you have a relationship with either Deion or Pilar Sanders prior to you coming forward?
NS: No.
You allege that you were dating Fred Hammond at the time of the incident you are about to speak of, correct?
NS: Absolutely.
How long had the two of you been dating?
NS: We were dating for approximately a year before this meeting, and we dated for another year after it happened, so it was a total of two years.
Now get into your story. Talk about the first time you allegedly met Deion Sanders.
NS: We were at Fred’s house. It was Fred, T.D. Jakes, Deion Sanders, and another man of whom I have no idea who he is. He came in with Deion, he left with Deion, I don’t know who he is. And that was my first time ever seeing Deion.
What was the subject of conversation?
NS: That he [Deion] was getting ready to file for a divorce, and there was something wrong with the prenuptial agreement, and he did not want her [Pilar] to take his money. He was like worried. It was one of those meetings where somebody is like, “Man you know, something is wrong with this prenup, and I need some help because I don’t want her to take everything.” And T.D. Jakes was there helping him, giving him advice, kind of guiding him rather, on what to do with his money so that it wouldn’t look like he had so much when the divorce happens. It was only T.D. Jakes and Deion talking. Fred wasn’t really saying anything, and the other guy wasn’t really saying anything. It was just a Deion and T.D. Jakes type situation.
Were they the least bit uncomfortable with you being in the room considering what they were discussing? It seems a little odd that Deion would be comfortable with talking about that with someone in the room he did not know.
NS: I wasn’t sitting directly in the room. I was eavesdropping in the room. I wasn’t like sitting on the couch with them…they were all sitting in the sitting area. I was eavesdropping on the meeting. I came down for a second to get a good look, and went back up, but I was not invited, nor was I sitting in the sitting room with them at the time, no.
