Former San Antonio Spurs star Tim Duncan and his wife, Amy Sherrill, separated in August 2013 amid allegations of Amy’s inappropriate relationship with her trainer.
Many believe that Tim Duncan and his long-time wife, Amy Sherrill, decided to end their marriage after being together for over a decade after the former NBA star found out that Amy was cheating on him with her personal trainer.
Furthermore, reports state that Tim Duncan hired a private investigator to track his wife Amy’s activities a year before their divorce after suspecting her inappropriate relationship with Gilbert R. Urbano Jr., a San Antonio-based personal trainer.

Adding to the allegations, court documents revealed that Tim Duncan’s lawyers attempted to obtain information about the personal trainer.
One document also showed Tim Duncan’s lawyers were even trying to get their hands on a recording from the trainer’s appearance on “Judge Judy” from 2010.
On the other hand, some reports state that Amy allegedly filed for divorce in early March 2013 after finding out Duncan’s sexual orientation and that he cheated on her with another man.
However, despite speculation, neither Tim Duncan nor Amy Sherrill shared the reasons for their divorce.
Similarly, the personal trainer told Express-News that he was unfamiliar with why his name repeatedly appeared in Duncan’s divorce proceedings.
According to each party’s divorce petitions:
“The marriage has become insupportable because of discord or conflict of personalities between petitioner and respondent that destroys the legitimate ends of the marriage relationship and prevents any reasonable expectation of reconciliation.”
Tim Duncan and Amy finalized their divorce in a secret hearing that didn’t take place in a courtroom, and the district judge granted the divorce on his lunch hour as they felt uncomfortable coming to court because of the media’s attention.
