Jean Muggli

Jean Muggli is widely known as the ex-wife of retired NFL player Michael Strahan -who spent his entire NFL career with the New York Giants.



Though, the ex’s took separate paths ages ago following an ugly divorce; they’re still making headlines together. Most recently last November when it was reported they settled a case where he claimed she abused the children they share together.

Strahan, a former NFL player turned TV personality, had accused Jean Muggli of demonstrating a ‘pattern of abusive conduct’ towards their teenage daughters. It was reported that he agreed to dismiss the claims ‘with prejudice’ after the parties reached a settlement agreement.

Their current situation regarding their kids is that they each get the children for a week at a time.
There’s no doubt that as much as they hate each other’s guts, both Strahan and ex, Jean Muggli, are still pretty much forced to deal with each other more often than we think.

Michael Strahan Divorce

After the fairytale ended for the second time for Strahan, he and Jean Muggli were the protagonists of one of the nastiest divorce battles.
In March 2005 everything came crashing down, Jean called police claiming Strahan had threatened to beat her. He countered by filing for divorce, claiming he had confronted her after she withdrew $3.3 million from their bank accounts.

In her testimony, Muggli claimed that their children’s preferences justified her spending $22,500 on photo shoots, $27,000 on clothing, and $1,700 for sign language classes. Strahan appealed. In March 2007, the court ordered the Montclair, New Jersey mansion to be auctioned and the sales money split evenly with Jean.

In court papers, she claimed he had cheated on her, refused to sleep with her and had secretly recorded her sister undressing while she stayed in their home. Jean also testified that Strahan wired her $30,000 to keep quiet about it.
Jean received $15.3 million in the divorce settlement, in addition to $18,000 monthly child support.

That amount was decreased to just under $13,000 in 2009, TMZ said. And their money battle is still ongoing over a decade later.
Now, Page Six reports Jean is seeking $18,378 a month, saying her ex’s monthly income is significantly higher thanks to his lucrative gigs on “Fox NFL Sunday” and “Good Morning America.” She also says Strahan owes her more than $500,000 in back child support.
