Former Dallas Cowboy and NFL Hall of Famer Deion Sanders hosted a pregame show for his old Texas team Saturday. (Sanders also played for the San Francisco 49ers back in 1994.) On Saturday, as soon as he was cleared from the air he announced he’s getting a divorce via Facebook.

The post on Sanders’ official Facebook page reads:

To My Friends and Family,

Pilar and I have decided to end our marriage and move on to the next phase of our individual lives with mutual respect. We are friends and our top priority has and will continue to be the well-being of our children. We arrived at this decision prayerfully and carefully in order to be able to pursue what is in both of our best personal interests. Neither Pilar or I will be discussing this any further and thank you in advance for respecting the privacy of our family. Truth
