Dwight Howard drops cryptic post with new fiancée after ex-girlfriend Royce Reed's public cheating outcry

Former NBA star Dwight Howard dropped a cryptic post with his fiancee, rapper Amy Luciani, following his ex-girlfriend Royce Reed's public cheating outcry. On Sunday, Howard shared an Instagram video of him and Luciani enjoying their vacation along with a loving message on the video that read, "POV YOU FOUND YOUR PERFECT PERSON❤️🤞🏽.”

Further, the caption of the post read, “Happy ❤️♾️❤️,” along with a long hashtag, "No weapon formed against us shall prosper," which was seemingly in response to Reed's cheating allegations.

This comes after Royce Reed took to Instagram on Saturday to share a series of videos detailing her relationship with Dwight Howard before alleging that the former LA Lakers star cheated on her with another NBA cheerleader.

"I had said a few times that I was thinking about going back to dance and he was against it... (but) I said I have made up my mind, I am doing this," Reed said.

"Next year I said I wanted to go to Miami. I said I wanted to dance for the (Miami) Heat. That was my dream team, either there or the Dallas Cowboys, and both of those he was completely against it, I had no idea why."

Reed further claimed that Howard suggested she audition for teams other than the Miami Heat or Dallas Cowboys, saying:

"I auditioned for the team, I make it and after a couple of weeks there were a group of girls that were treating me weird and I don't know why. Well, I had a finding out that he had cheated on me with one of my teammates, who used to live in Texas and now was coming to the Heat.

"Anyway, broke up with him and was trying to live my best life y'all. I ended up getting in argument with one of my best friends on the team... So I got suspended for two weeks."

Royce Reed started dating Dwight Howard in 2004 when he was a rookie with the Orlando Magic. They dated for around three years and also welcomed a child, their son, Braylon Howard, in 2007.

Imma post the texts and emails too if you keep playing with me and calling my bluff! I know about way more than you think I do so imma leave the initials R.E. to let you know it’s ON!"

"This is my HOF year. I’m getting married. God is amazing. And I’m so grateful and I wish Royce nothing but the best peace and (blessings)," Howard told TSR.
