Just a few years after their troublesome marriage and the acrimonious divorce, Michael Strahan and his ex-wife Jean Muggli came into media’s attention again in 2014. The football mogul Strahan was accused of spying on his former wife and her younger sister, Denise.
Muggli also made a very serious accusation on Strahan stating that he fitted video equipment in her bedroom in 1999, just two years before their wedding. She said that Michael did so in order to film her younger sister undressing.
During their court battle for divorce in 2005, Muggli reported in the court that after the incident, the NFL star Strahan tried to bribe Denise $30,000 to hush her down. He sent the amount on her personal bank account after the alleged incident. But we still don’t know the true reason behind the exchange of the money.
After their separation, Muggli has not spoken publicly about their relationship and the hush money. Strahan had to give his former wife $15.3 million for the divorce settlement along with $ 18,000 a month for the child support for their daughters. They have twin daughters Sophia and Isabelle Strahan.
