Derek Fisher–Gloria Govan separation

Entities: Derek Fisher · Isaiah Govan · Gloria Govan · Matt Barnes · Carter Govan

Overview

Former NBA champion Derek Fisher and reality‑TV personality Gloria Govan announced in late July 2026 that they are living apart after five years of marriage. A spokesperson told TMZ that the couple remains in regular contact, is focused on their family, and has no immediate plans to file for divorce.

The pair married in a small Malibu ceremony in July 2021. They share twin sons, Carter Kelly and Isaiah Michael, who are 17 and attend Crespi Carmelite High School in Encino, where Fisher serves as their basketball coach. Both Fisher and Govan continue to pursue their professional activities—Fisher in basketball analysis and charitable work, and Govan in media production—while working through marital issues.

No further public comments have been made beyond the joint statement confirming their separation.
