Dwight Howard: 'Never Done Coke in My Life'
11 Mar
Summary
- Howard denied cocaine use allegations made by his estranged wife.
- Police responded to his mansion three times in two weeks.
- Howard filed for divorce on the same day his wife planned to file.
Former NBA player Dwight Howard has publicly refuted allegations of cocaine addiction, recently levied by his estranged wife, Amber Howard. In a Snapchat video message released on Wednesday, March 11, 2026, Howard declared, "Never done Coke in my life." He also expressed skepticism towards individuals who readily accept online gossip.
The couple's relationship has been marked by significant turmoil. Records indicate that the Gwinnett Police Department was dispatched to Howard's Suwanee, Georgia, residence on three separate occasions within the past two weeks. These calls included a response to a suicide threat and a domestic incident.
Dwight Howard initiated divorce proceedings on Monday, March 9, 2026. This action occurred on the same day Amber Howard had indicated her intention to file for divorce through her attorney. This latest filing follows Amber's initial divorce petition from eight months prior, which she later withdrew in August 2025, suggesting a previously "irretrievably broken" state of their marriage.
