Overview

• On July 1, Amy Luciani filed for divorce in a Georgia court, describing her January marriage to Dwight Howard as ‘‘irretrievably broken’’ with no prospects for reconciliation.
• In her petition, Luciani asked judges to divide all marital assets equitably and award her alimony.
• A mutual restraining order that the couple first agreed to on January 2 was formally entered into the court record on July 2.
• Howard, who wed Luciani on January 11 following a secret December engagement, has not publicly addressed the filing and remains active in Ice Cube’s BIG3 League.
• The split caps a whirlwind personal arc that began with a private engagement announcement and an intimate wedding six months earlier, underscoring rising legal and financial stakes under Georgia’s rules.
