Suspended New Orleans Saints coach Sean Payton filed for divorce from Beth Payton, his wife of nearly 20 years, according to The Times-Picayune. The petition was filed in Tarrant County, Texas on June 14, the Paytons' anniversary is July 11. The Times-Picayune cites court documents that seek to protect each person's identity by using initials – 'PSP' for Sean and 'BAP' for Beth. While the coach is seeking joint custody of their two children, Beth filed a counter-petition asking the court to schedule the his time with the children, "as necessary to protect the health and well-being of the children." The couple have long maintained a residence in Texas since Sean Payton was an assistant coach with the Dallas Cowboys. Source: USAToday
This was in the making for a long time. She moved to Texas a while back while he stayed here. He also had a coaches show with a young woman and suddenly the show is no longer being made. Perfect timing though. Get it over with now and not later when he is coaching. Might be a blessing. I mean. if they are going to get a divorce. Sucks for the kids though. Can tell it is going to be messy.
When it rains it pours...ouch. What are the chances Payton can get the child support based on his 2012 salary?!?
