R.C. Collins Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Chipper, wife separate after 12 years of marriage2:54 pm June 14, 2012, by Carroll RogersChipper Jones and his wife Sharon have separated, according to a person with knowledge of the situation.This would be a second divorce for Jones, who went through a very public split with his first wife Karin, beginning in 1998, after he had admitted to an extramarital affair and having a son out of wedlock. Jones, 40, has four sons, and it appears his intent is to handle this situation privately.When asked about it Thursday, Jones declined comment. Attempts to reach Sharon Jones for comment were unsuccessful.The couple has been married for 12 years and have three sons Trey, 11, Shea, 7, and Tristan, 6. Jones also has a fourth son Matthew, 14.The timing is particularly tough for Jones, who is playing his final season with the Braves. A seven-time All-Star and potential Hall of Fame third baseman, he announced at the end of spring training that this will be his last season in an 18-year career, entirely in Atlanta. He just returned from a disabled list stint on Sunday against Toronto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nobkowski Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Chipper played here in Macon for the Macon Braves before getting called up. He has been paying someone here in Macon a child support check all these years. This is a public forum so I ain't about to mention any names.

slamee101 Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 My understanding was Sharon was the woman he cheated with. I could be wrong though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R.C. Collins Posted June 26, 2012 Author Share Posted June 26, 2012 My understanding was Sharon was the woman he cheated with. I could be wrong though.Chipper's first wife was named Karin, he admittedly cheated on her multiple times and fathered an illegitimate son with a Hooters waitress 14 years ago while they were still married.Chipper met Sharon (his current wife) in Orlando a couple of months after being seperated from his first wife Karin. They were married four months after his divorce from Karin.Chipper and Sharon have three sons the eldest is 12 years old. His illegitimate son is named Matthew and he is 14 years old, so Sharon is not the Hooters waitress he cheated with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falconsfan567 Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 I was too young to remember when all that happened. I just remember the on-field action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
