Los Angeles Lakers executive Johnny Buss oldest son of deceased Lakers owner Jerry Buss has filed for divorce from his wife, who happens to be an ex-Clippers dancer. Read more after the jump.
Johnny who’s currently the V.P. of Strategic Development for the Lakers filed divorce docs in L.A. County Superior Court seeking to end his marriage to Christy Curtis Buss which began in 1991.
What’s odd is that in the court docs Buss states that he and Christy separated back in 2000, which would mean they’ve been split up 13 years but just now filing for divorce.
Apparently, Johnny finally felt like cutting the cord because he filed the docs himself on June 11, 2013. It’s unclear why he waited so long. They have no minor children.
In the docs, Buss blames the split on irreconcilable differences but checked the box that acknowledges he’ll have to pony up spousal support.
Christy is no slouch after she danced for the Clip squad, she went on to be a successful choreographer for the L.A. Sparks and various TV shows including “Days of Our Lives,” which she worked on for 19 years.
