Who is Brittney Griner's Wife? Brittney Griner, a two-time Olympic gold medalist, and seven-time WNBA All-Star was arrested at the Moscow airport in February 2022 after officials allegedly found vape cartridges with cannabis oil. During the WNBA offseason, she went to Russia to continue her basketball career there. After seven months behind bars, in August of 2022, Brittney was condemned to nine years in a Russian correctional colony.
The news that President Joe Biden had made arrangements with Russia to repatriate Brittney reached the public on December 8, 2022.
Thankfully, Cherelle, Brittney's wife, has been steadfast in keeping Brittney's narrative alive and has made numerous statements regarding Brittney's case since her arrest. Our current understanding of their bond is as follows.
Who is Brittney Griner's Wife Cherelle?
TMZ Sports reports that the Phoenix Mercury center proposed to his Baylor University sweetheart Cherelle in 2018. Brittney provided further context on Instagram: “My jaw dropped when you touched me on the shoulder and said, “You took my milkshake” (whether or not that's true, lol). I felt deep down inside that you were the one for me, and you had no idea.”

Although the two have not publicly confirmed their nuptials, it appears that Cherelle has changed her surname to Griner.
According to her Instagram account, Cherelle is a practicing attorney and a graduate of the North Carolina Central University of Law. She earned a degree in political science and government from Baylor University and worked as a teacher.

What Did Cherelle Griner Remark on the Predicament of Her Wife?
Years ago, when Cherelle's wife was still being held prisoner, she sat down with Gayle King for an interview on CBS. In her first interview since Griner's sentencing in August, Cherelle told King, “I'm like, in no world did I ever think, you know, our president and a foreign nation's president would be sitting together having to discuss the freedom of my wife.”
Since everyone has been giving me a different explanation of who or what BG is, I've come to the conclusion that she's a hostage. After their arrest in February 2022, Cherelle detailed her second phone conversation with Brittney.
“It was clear that she was in distress. If you consider the limits of a single person's pain, she reached those limits that day.”
Prior to this, Cherelle had voiced worry for her wife, Brittney, and indicated that she was having a hard time waiting to be released from prison. Cherelle expressed doubt that the young woman had “something left in her tank” to spend another day alone.
Charelle, all smiles, made an appearance at the White House with Vice President Joe Biden on the day after the WNBA star was freed.
“Today my family is whole, but as you all know, there is a whole lot of family who isn't,” she remarked.
Paul Whelan, a former Marine, and executive in corporate security for a US company, is currently imprisoned in Russia on what US officials have called bogus allegations. Charelle continued, “BG and I will remain committed to the effort of getting every American home, including Paul.
We are aware that other people are going through what I have had for the past nine months.
