Brittney Griner and Glory Johnson

These two athletic stars of the WNBA, Brittney Griner and Glory Johnson, were married for a year until divorcing in 2016. Sometimes, people make bad decisions when they are dating, but you cannot really tell how a person is going to turn out in a relationship often until it is too late. Clearly, Girner and Johnson did not take the time to get to know one another deeply enough when they tied the knot.

Orlando Cruz and Jose Manuel Colon

This is definitely one for the books. Meet Orlando Cruz, thought to be the first openly gay professional boxer in the history of the sport. Cruz married his partner, Jose Manuel Colon, in Central Park in 2013. Can you imagine how much courage it must have taken to come out as the first homosexual boxer? Being in such a stuffy and closed-minded environment but still defying the expectations is inspiring.
