Ravens lineman's estranged wife denies adultery claims, calls allegations 'bad faith' in divorce battle
Ben Cleveland's estranged wife is firing back at adultery allegations made by the NFL lineman. Cleveland and his estranged wife, Kaityln Terrell Cleveland, are involved in a divorce, which was first filed in February. The Baltimore Ravens lineman made adultery claims against his wife, and she called them "knowingly false." Kaitlyn Cleveland "vehemently" denied the claims in a court filing on Thursday, which Fox News Digital obtained. Kaitlyn Cleveland goes on to say the claims were made "in bad faith." She hinted that the Baltimore Ravens lineman's claims were false in March, when she posted Kelsea Ballerini lyrics on her Instagram Stories that suggested she had much to say about the divorce but couldn't speak on it. A screenshot by TMZ showed one lyric from Ballerini's song titled "Interlude" that read, "The rumors goin' 'round, but the truth is kindas nuanced. I wanna set it straight, but my lawyer says I shouldn't." In her answer and counterclaim, Kaitlyn Cleveland also requested a judge equitably split their assets while granting her alimony if they are unable to reach an agreement. Ben and Kaitlyn Cleveland have been separated since December 2024 despite the divorce filing coming in February. The date of separation was noted in the first court filing. Cleveland was a third-round pick by the Ravens in 2021, and he re-signed with the team this offseason to remain a fixture on the offensive line. He could see a larger role in 2025 after being used sparingly over his first four seasons. Cleveland has seven starts under his belt in 54 games since joining the team, all of which coming at offensive guard.

UFC fans share what they think about Trump ahead of O'Malley-Dvalishvili showdown
UFC fans gathered in Newark, N.J., for the highly anticipated matchup between Merab Dvalishvili and Sean O'Malley. But the two fighters weren't the only special guests in the arena — President Donald Trump was also in attendance. Though there was no official announcement, fans were clearly anticipating Trump's arrival. Fox News Digital spoke to fans before the event about Trump's performance during the first six months of his second term. Some were eager to praise the president, while others were skeptical or outright disappointed. "He's doing an amazing job. He's shocking us all, but he's doing what everybody knows he's going to do. Wow," Erin Kerr said. "I believe that Trump is somebody to respect. He's always honest about things and at the end of the day, you know, it might be politics, but you know we should kind of respect what's going on, you know what I'm saying," Eric Ventura told Fox News Digital. "I'd much rather see the UFC than see two bloated billionaires fight each other," Paul Gordon said. "Probably Elon would be kind of funny, but I gotta go with what's happening tonight, it's gonna be better," Chris Wright said. "Trump — he's got that big a-- chin," Wright told Fox News Digital. "He took a bullet, right? I think if you just take a bullet, maybe you can take a punch," Gustavo Granados said. "If Elon, if Trump were to fight, I think Trump would get it done," Jimmy Malloy said. Several fans also chose Musk, noting the billionaire was several years younger than the president, which they thought would give him an advantage. In the end, Trump received a warm welcome from the roaring crowd as he entered the Prudential Center with UFC CEO Dana White, a longtime ally of the president who spoke at the 2024 Republican National Convention.
