The divorce between Miami Dolphins star Tyreek Hill and Keeta Vaccaro has turned into a bitter courtroom feud that’s now being publicly aired in documents and legal filings, with accusations flying from both sides.

What began as a private split is rapidly becoming a high-profile legal spectacle, revealing not only strained personal dynamics but also an increasingly contentious battle over control, reputation, and custody.

Vaccaro’s legal team is pushing back hard against Hill’s recent motion for a gag order, labeling it a veiled attempt to silence her in court. The motion, originally filed by Hill’s lawyers on June 23, requested a Miami judge to bar Vaccaro from making statements in legal documents that could harm Hill’s public image.But Vaccaro’s attorneys argue that the move reeks of intimidation and hypocrisy. “In terms of purpose, the Husband’s motion is a clear attempt to silence and intimidate wife’s counsel and control the representation that she receives in this litigation,” they stated in the response, which was first obtained by Daily Mail. They also pointed out, “He wants to silence the wife’s lawyers while his own pleadings disparage and denigrate the wife.

The irony of Hill’s complaint wasn’t lost on Vaccaro’s lawyers, who referenced what they called “The Goose-Gander Rule,” pointing to what they see as double standards. They argue that while Hill wants to censor Vaccaro’s legal commentary, he himself has made damaging allegations. In one such filing, Hill accused Vaccaro of stealing from him and fraudulently accessing his financial accounts to benefit herself and her mother.

“Three days before he filed his motion to enjoin, he filed a pleading in which he alleged… that the wife ‘has a history of stealing,’” her lawyers noted, citing a headline that subsequently ran in media reports.Hill’s attorneys, Michael Gottlieb and Christi Bright, claim the gag order is necessary to prevent further reputational damage, suggesting that the NFL player is a public figure under greater scrutiny. Vaccaro’s response firmly counters that argument, claiming Hill simply doesn’t want to “look bad.”Beyond the battle over speech, the divorce has sparked disputes over finances and custody. Vaccaro, who shares an 8-month-old daughter named Capri with Hill, alleged that he has failed to pay temporary spousal or child support. She also accused him of withholding access to their shared home and a vehicle, denying her financial stability in the process. “The motion is another example of the Husband’s pattern of coercive control,” the response claimed.Tensions escalated further following a domestic dispute at the couple’s Miami apartment in April — the same month Vaccaro filed for divorce, citing the marriage as “irretrievably broken.” Police reports revealed that Hill had thrown a laptop and walked toward a balcony with their daughter. Though no arrests were made, officers noticed a bruise on Vaccaro’s chest.In an emergency filing, Vaccaro claimed Hill disappeared for two nights following the incident and later took their daughter without her consent.

She is now seeking exclusive use of the home and supervised visitation for Hill.The couple had married in November 2023 during the Dolphins’ bye week, after being engaged for over two years. This unraveling, however, has exposed a much deeper breakdown than what the public had previously known, with both sides now prepared for a long legal confrontation.Also Read: Brittany Mahomes gets surprise message from Baker Mayfield’s wife after sending unexpected gift package
