Meet the "WAGS Miami" Cast:
Hencha Voigt fell in and out of love with an NBA star, previously of the Boston Celtics. With a long roster of pro-athletes she's dated, including former Miami Heat and Miami Marlins stars, Hencha is currently single and hitting the VIP party scene hard. As a fitness model and trainer, she's been featured in numerous music videos, the TV series "Ballers," several films, crushed many fashion runways and modeled commercially. Hencha and Metisha plan to launch a clothing line together.
Claudia Sampedro and Julius Peppers, outside linebacker of the Green Bay Packers are inseparable. They've merged their blended families with an 8-month-old son together, and a 7-year-old daughter and son from each of their previous relationships.

Vanessa Cole is a real estate and business investor who has spent seven years with a major player on the Baltimore Ravens.

Ashley Nicole Roberts met Philip Wheeler, a linebacker for the Atlanta Falcons over seven years ago when he was playing football for the Colts. A professional model, active in the ARMY Reserve and mother of their 2-year-old son, Ashley is no stranger to staying strong in the heat of the moment. After posting to Instagram a photo of her breastfeeding her son, she received national backlash and garnered major media attention.

Darnell Nicole and Reshad Jones, current safety of the Miami Dolphins have known each other for five years and have a 2-year-old daughter together.

Her roster of ex's feature pros from the Miami Dolphins, Detroit Lions and Pittsburgh Steelers.
Metisha Schaefer is a model fluent in not only five languages but also WAG, after dating former pro baseball and football players. Nicole Williams, fellow Los Angeles WAG is Metisha's ex's new girl.
