Get to know the people behind the cast's "W.A.G." nicknames.

Netflix's series W.A.G.s to Riches follows nine powerhouse women who are the wives and girlfriends (or former wives and girlfriends) of high-profiled celebrities and athletes as they strive to redefine the traditional meaning of the phrase.

Throughout the show's eight episodes, which hit the streamer on Jan. 22, viewers get an intimate look at the glitz, the glam — and the oftentimes drama-filled — hustle displayed by the business-minded cast of fashion entrepreneurs, realtors and event producers.

Sharelle Rosado, who Netflix describes as the "queen bee of the W.A.G.s," is among the ladies in the series with bustling careers. She's the founder of Allure Realty, her own multimillion-dollar real estate agency that opened in 2019 and has since hired several of the women in the cast.

As the series unfolds, Rosado's relationship with retired NFL star Chad "Ochocinco" Johnson is put on full display as they work through their ups and downs after getting engaged in 2023. Although they separated in October 2024, the series gives context behind their breakup.

While the women are at the forefront of the show, Johnson — along with Tyreek Hill, Philip Wheeler and a few other cast partners — make appearances in the episodes. Many of the cast members have kids, too, some of whom are also briefly featured.

Read on to learn about the current and former partners of the W.A.G.s to Riches cast.

Johnson was born and raised in Miami, Florida. He played college football at Oregon State until he was selected by the Cincinnati Bengals in the second round of the 2001 NFL Draft.

The longtime Bengals star played for the Ohio-based team until 2010. He went on to play for the New England Patriots and Miami Dolphins over the course of his football career before announcing his retirement from the NFL in 2013.

Johnson pursued other avenues within the professional football field in retirement, working as a panelist on the CW's Inside the NFL and co-hosting the Nightcap podcast. He also had several pursuits outside of football, like competing on Dancing with the Stars in 2010.

In July 2012, Johnson married TV personality Evelyn Lozada. The former NFL player was arrested on a misdemeanor domestic violence charge against her on Aug. 11. He was released from jail on $2,500 bond on Aug. 12.

Lozada filed for divorce days later on Aug. 14 claiming their marriage was "irretrievably broken." The divorce was finalized on Sept. 19, 2012.

Rap phenom Drake posted a video dancing to Kodak Black's "Skrt" in October 2015, which helped boost the then-up-and-coming artist's popularity. Since signing with Atlantic Records, the Florida native has released a number of chart-topping songs and collaborations with hip-hop's biggest names.

In March 2017, Kodak Black released his debut studio album Painting Pictures, followed by Dying to Live in 2018 and Bill Israel in 2020. He dropped his fourth studio album, Back for Everything, in February 2022.

Alexis Welch was married to Amar’e Stoudemire, a retired basketball star and Olympian who had a standout career in the NBA.

The Florida native committed to the University of Memphis before he reversed his decision and declared for the NBA Draft, where he was selected as the ninth pick by the Phoenix Suns in the first round of the 2002 NBA Draft. He won the NBA Rookie of the Year Award in 2003.

Amar’e was with the Suns until 2010. He spent time with the New York Knicks, Dallas Mavericks and Miami Heat. In 2004, the basketball player won a bronze medal at the Athens Summer Olympics with the U.S. National Team.

In June 2016, Amar’e resigned from the Knicks to retire with the New York-based team after 14 seasons in the league. He went on to become a two-time Israeli Basketball Premier League champion in 2017 and 2020.

Porsha Berto's husband is Andre Berto, a professional boxer who is a two-time welterweight world champion and Olympian.

Andre was born in Florida and raised in a family of combat sports athletes. He was introduced to boxing by his father, a professional kickboxer, himself, who competed at UFC 10. Andre displayed his talents young and won a bronze medal as an amateur in the 2003 World Championships.

In 2011, Andre was at the height of his career: he held the WBC welterweight title since winning in 2008 and was ranked top three welterweight in the world behind top boxers Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Jr. at the time.

Andre's 2011 fight against Victor Ortiz was named Fight of the Year by The Ring magazine, however; it was the first professional defeat of his career that cost him his belt in a 12-round unanimous decision. His successes fluctuated between 2012 to 2015, and later beat Ortiz in a 2016 rematch.

Nicknamed "The Beast," Andre hasn't yet retired from professional boxing. According to his PBC bio, he's "hungrier than ever to reclaim his spot atop the division."

As for her personal life, Andre proposed to his wife Porsha at her baby shower in 2018, and they have been married for the past five years. "Thank you for being my hero, my best friend, my partner in all things, and my lover face," Porsha wrote on Instagram in honor of their fourth anniversary in January 2023.

The couple share two children together, daughter Legaci in February 2019 and son Levi Michael in 2020. In July 2024, Porsha revealed on Instagram that she is pregnant with their third baby.

Sadé Vanessa and Robbie Chosen Anderson

Sadé Vanessa's fiancé is Robbie Chosen Anderson, an NFL free agent who's played for several teams in the League as a wide receiver. Most recently, he was a member of the Miami Dolphins.

Anderson was born in New Jersey and raised in Florida before moving to Philadelphia upon committing to Temple University for football. He went undrafted in the 2016 NFL Draft despite his standout skills, however; he signed a three-year, $1.63 million contract with the New York Jets later that year.

The NFL player was with the Jets until 2019. He signed with the Carolina Panthers, Arizona Cardinals, Miami Dolphins, San Fransisco 49ers and again with the Dolphins over the course of his professional football career.

Anderson is engaged to Sadé and proposed to her in December 2021. "Better with you than I am without ya, Too solid to be labeled my girlfriend always knew you was meant to be my Wife.. Committed to being the Best I can be," he wrote on Instagram at the time.

The couple often post photos with each other on their respective social media pages, along with heartfelt tributes. In November 2024, they revealed on Instagram that they were expecting their first child together.

Lastonia Leviston and Rick Ross

Lastonia Leviston shares a child with Rick Ross, a rapper and music entrepreneur who rose to prominence in the hip-hop world with chart-topping tracks and Grammy nominations to his name.

A Mississippi native, Ross — born William Leonard Roberts II — moved to Florida and was raised in Carol City, an impoverished area north of Miami. He played football on scholarship at Albany State University in Georgia for one year before taking a job as a corrections officer for a couple of years.

All the while, Ross would write rap music. His lyrics stemmed from sights he saw in childhood, heavily revolving around drugs. He was featured on tracks from underground hip-hop groups before signing with Miami-based label Slip-N-Slide (under Def Jam since 2006).

Ross released his debut album Port of Miami in 2006, receiving acclaim upon its drop and featured his debut single "Hustin.'" While he continued to release music, he founded his own record label, Maybach Music Group, in 2009, signing Meek Mill and French Montana, to name a few.

Throughout the early 2010s, Ross saw many successes: he earned a BET nomination, signed a solo deal with Epic Records and released up to 10 studio records by 2019 (the tenth being Port of Miami 2). His single "Gold Roses" with Drake earned a Grammy Award the following year.

Ross has had several controversies and legal troubles over the years (including arrests on occasion for marijuana possession and assault, the latter which resulted in 5 years probation), in addition to an obligatory rap beef with 50 Cent (which is touched upon in a dramatic episode of W.A.G.s to Riches, involving a 2015 lawsuit about the release of Leviston's sex tape in which 50 Cent was ordered to $5 million).

The rapper is the father of five kids. He had daughter Toie in March 2002, son William III in September 2005, daughter Berkeley Hermès in September 2017, son Billion Leonard in November 2017 and son Bliss in August 2020.

Ross welcomed his children across different relationships. He shares his first child, Toie, with Leviston. He welcomed William III with Tia Kemp. He shares Berkeley Hermès, Billion and Bliss with Briana Camille.

Tyreek Hill and Keeta Vaccaro

Keeta Hill is the wife of Tyreek Hill, one of the highest-paid wide receivers in the NFL who recently wrapped his third season with the Miami Dolphins. He's known by his nickname, "Cheetah."

Tyreek was born and raised in Georgia before moving to Kansas upon committing to Garden City Community College. As a sought-after junior college recruit, the football star went on to play at Oklahoma State University and then West Alabama University.

At the 2016 NFL Draft, Tyreek was selected in the fifth round by the Kansas City Chiefs, where he played for six seasons until making his move to Miami. Tyreek won Super Bowl LIV with the Chiefs, plus several successes. He was selected to the Pro Bowl in each of his eight seasons in the NFL.

While Tyreek has made headlines for his performance on the field, he's also made headlines for his controversial off-field behavior as the subject of various police investigations prior to his time in the League and throughout his career.

Tyreek pleaded guilty to domestic assault and battery by strangulation in 2014 and received three years on probation as result of a plea agreement, reported The Oklahoman. He was also required to take an anger management course and a 52-week Batterer’s Intervention Program.

In March 2019, Tyreek was investigated by Kansas’ child welfare agency when his then three-year-old broke his arm in 2019. He did not face charges and the NFL declared he would not be suspended as a result of the leagues investigation.

In September 2024, Tyreek was arrested following a traffic stop ahead of his first game of the NFL season. He appeared in the Dolphins' home opener against the Jacksonville Jaguars, scored a touchdown and marked it with an unusual end-zone celebration: pretending to be handcuffed.

The Miami Dolphins player and Vaccaro got engaged in July 2021, wed in November 2023 and welcomed their first child together in November 2024. It is unclear how many children the athlete has in total, but it's been reported he's fathered eight across different relationships.

Julz Goddard (known as YesJulz online) is the ex-fiancée of Duke Riley, an NFL linebacker on the Miami Dolphins.

Riley was born and raised in Louisiana, where he ended up playing college upon committing to Louisiana State University from 2013 to 2016. He made his transition to the League the following year when the Atlanta Falcons selected him in the third round of the 2017 NFL Draft.

In 2019, Riley was traded to the Philadelphia Eagles and played for the Pennsylvania team until he signed with the Miami Dolphins in March 2021. He signed a two-year contract extension with the Florida team in 2023.

Riley taps into other passions outside of football. He's ventured into the music scene with several singles and an album (We All Have Bad Habits) released on Spotify, in addition to a style scene with fashion-focused photos shared on his Instagram.

The Dolphins player is the father of three kids, two sons and one daughter, with women from different relationships. He and Goddard welcomed their first child, daughter River, in March 2022.

In January 2024, the social media influencer hinted on Instagram that she had split from her fiancé (the date of their engagement is unclear). "Single ladies gather here," she captioned a slideshow of images. The last pic was a photo of WNBA star Angel Reese pointing to her ringless ring finger.
