Deion Sanders Having Trouble Praying for Issues With Ex-Wife Pilar Sanders?
Deion "Prime Time" Sanders, the NFL Hall-of-Famer, may be having a hard time praying for the turbulent situation with his ex-wife Pilar Sanders after she took to Twitter to accuse him of keeping their children from her and abuse.
Deion, 47, has moved on from Pilar with producer Tracey Edmonds, with whom he and his children star in the OWN Network show, "Deion's Family Playbook" on Saturdays. However, Deion got more attention than he may have bargained for when Pilar tweeted that her ex-husband called the police while she was trying to pick up her children for her court-appointed visitation.
Things seemed to take a turn for the worst, when Pilar continued to tweet about allegations concerning Deion abusing her. The former football star spoke up to Bossip.com about his issues with Pilar.

Last April, a domestic altercation took place at the former couple's $5.7 million home where each alleged that they were attacked by the other. However, a judge ruled that the hall of famer was only defending himself against Pilar's assault.
Deion accused Pilar of being "certified crazy" while defending himself against her recent claims.
"When a man walks away, that tells you a lot about the situation. When a man wins custody, that tells a lot about the situation," he told Bossip. " ... If you understood what transpired in court, the lies about the abuse. I mean when somebody says that you attempted to murder them, how can you kidnap your own kids and you got custody of them?"
During the custody battle last year, Sanders spoke about his estranged wife's issues.
"(Pilar) is still searching. She doesn't know what she wants to be," Sanders told DallasNews.com. "When someone tries to destroy everything you are and everything you stand for, that's kind of hard. It's hard to communicate when you know the fabric of that person."
While Deion has never shied away from speaking about his Christian faith, he admits that it may take some time to pray about the situation.
"God established me, not man nor woman. So, I ain't going nowhere," he told Bossip. "I'll pray on it; but no time soon."
