Haqq noted that she “did not come to this decision lightly.”
“For the most part, I have kept my relationship private for the benefit of our family,” she added. “I share this not because I believe it’s newsworthy ~ But so that we go about our lives with honesty and to begin the journey of co-parenting. I’m so grateful for my incredible support system!”

McCray, 42, has not yet addressed the breakup publicly.
Haqq once opened up about what attracted her to McCray — even though she initially attempted to set him with her friends before pursuing him herself.
“I was very attracted to his stature and the fact that he’s this 6'7” at the time, 260 [lbs.], large, Black, adorable man," she said onKin’sSide By Sideseries in 2019. “And he would put on tights every Sunday and cleats and crack quarterbacks for a living. I thought that was amazing.”
She added, “Nobody loved seeing him on turf as much as I did. The most joyous time of my life was watching my husband be the QB killer.”
Haqq also said it was “not my plan” to ever “fall in love and get married,” but McCray changed her perspective.
