Los Angeles Chargers offensive lineman Ben Cleveland has agreed to pay his estranged wife, Kaitlyn Terrell Cleveland, more than half a million dollars to settle their divorce, according to documents obtained by the California Post.
According to the agreement, filed in late January, Ben, 27, has agreed to give Kaitlyn $550,000, with a portion of that money going to pay off a 2024 Land Rover he agreed to give her. In return, Kaitlyn has agreed to cede her rights to some of the real estate that the couple once owned.
The agreement also laid out who has the right to the couples’ belongings, with Ben taking back his gun and thermal scope and retaining their two properties in Georgia. Kaitlyn will receive a golf cart, rugs and pillows, bedroom furniture and kitchen dishes.
Both parties agreed to not make “any disparaging comments about the other party in any form” or “post anything about the other party on any social media platform.”
Ravens’ Ben Cleveland and Estranged Wife Kaitlyn’s Relationship Timeline
Ben first filed for divorce in February 2025, days after being arrested for DUI. He cited “adultery” in court documents, though Kaitlyn denied ever cheating on him.
His arrest occurred on February 12, 2025 when he registered a .178 blood alcohol content after a traffic stop. He was charged with DUI and failure to maintain lane before being released on bond.
Ben, a third-round draft pick by the Baltimore Ravens in 2021, met Kaitlyn when they were students at the University of Georgia from 2017 to 2020. He proposed in 2020 during a trip to Las Vegas.
“If I’m being honest, your first and my last name will just sound better together and probably always will,” Ben wrote via Instagram at the time, alongside a carousel in front of the Bellagio Hotel & Casino fountains. “Nobody I’d rather spend my forever with and now we get to try that out.”

That June, he shared another update, saying the wedding was still a couple years off.
“Two years and then some until you’re actually my wife,” he shared via Instagram with photos from a beach day. “Not sure, we haven’t really started wedding planning yet and we’ve been engaged 6 months so that’s on her. But she’s gonna be my wife so that’s kinda cool.”
The couple’s separation date was listed as December 29, 2024. Just three days earlier, Kaitlyn shared a post from the Ravens’ Christmas Day game, which featured photos of the couple together on the sideline.
All photos of the two together have since been deleted from Instagram.
