“Basketball Wives” star Draya Michele revealed she has split with her fiancé Orlando Scandrick.
34-year-old Draya took to Instagram to drop the bombshell writing, “I have been single the entire month of December. So if anyone has anything to say about me or the guy I used to be engaged to, save, it. We don’t care” She ended, “Merry Christmas everyone.”
Draya and Orlando have dated each other for years. Their relationship has been rocky to say the least.
Back in May 2015, the two broke up after dating for around two years. A month later, Orlando proposed to Draya with a $400,000 engagement ring. Orlando proposed while on a date at the movies.

"He got down on one knee and as soon as he started to talk I got nervous and couldn't help but to laugh hysterically. I was laughing and crying at the same time," the reality star told People.
In January 2016, Draya announced she was expecting a child with Orlando. She has one kid from a previous relationship. The same month the couple announced they were calling off their engagement.
Draya was six months pregnant at the time. She talked about the split on social media, “I've been hurt, abandoned, lied on, and disrespected. I've realized you can't change people.. And the thing about rough times is, I've survived every single one."
SAVAGE X FENTY
She continued, "Today is a celebration for me .... I've made 6 months.... And I'm ok rejoicing alone. I have a son and another on the way, soon to be surrounded by 2 kings. Protectors." The couple reconciled a couple of months later.
The two were known for having massive fights before the pregnancy. During one fight, Orlando accused Draya of pepper-spraying him and throwing candles at him. In a restraining order petition, Orlando said Draya even threatened to throw bleach in his eyes.
Draya has remained unbothered by the split and posted a sultry shot of her in Rihanna's ad campaign.
