Their issues escalate.

Matt Barnes' relationship with his ex-wife, Gloria Barnes, took a dramatic turn over this weekend. A disagreement between the former couple led to Govan's being arrested and charged with a felony crime.

According to their custody agreement, Barnes' was scheduled to pick up their kids from school on Friday afternoon. Despite this legal arrangement, Govan decided to show up early and beat him to it. When Barnes' arrived, he told his children to get into his car. When he drove off with the children, Govan launched into a fit and chased after him. Eventually, she was able to block his car with her own vehicle which led to a 911 call.

When the police arrived, Barnes' was able to produce documentation about their custody agreement. The legal authorities allowed the father to leave with his children. Govan, on the other hand, was arrested and charged for child endangerment.

Govan was released from jail on Saturday after her $100 000 bail was posted.

During this same weekend, the Basketball Wives star posted a message about hardship and hope on her Instagram.

"There isn’t a person on this earth that isn’t struggling with something! I don’t care how much money, success, or followers anyone has. We all have problems[...] Trust in your purpose and don’t be afraid to ask for help."
