Several fans resorted to trolling Darren Waller after Kelsey Plum’s latest Instagram post went viral. Plum, a celebrated WNBA star and two-time champion with the Las Vegas Aces, was previously married to Waller before their divorce earlier this year.
Plum’s Instagram post from Sunday showcased her recent appearance at the NASCAR Xfinity Series, where she promoted her partnership with Zip USA. However, the comment section under the post was filled with jabs aimed at Waller.
“Darren Waller dropped the ball big time,” one fan commented. “He really fumbled the bag,” echoed another, with a third fan simply stating, “Waller fumbled.”

The post featured Plum in various settings, including speaking on stage, granting interviews, posing with racer Hailie Deegan, and driving onto the track. Fans were also quick to praise her fashion sense, as she sported a stylish combination of a white skirt, black tank top, and a white and purple checkered jacket.
“Had a fantastic time yesterday as the Grand Marshal of the Zip Buy Now, Pay Later 250 NASCAR Xfinity Race at Sonoma Raceway, thanks to my new partnership with @zip_usa,” Plum wrote in the caption. “I also had the chance to meet @hailiedeegan! Check out my newest partner @zip_usa, who is giving away NASCAR tickets and a cash prize when you download their app. Let’s make it happen!”
Plum is set to take a break from the Aces’ pursuit of a third consecutive championship to represent the United States at the upcoming Paris Olympics, alongside her Las Vegas teammates A’ja Wilson, Jackie Young, and Chelsea Gray.

Plum and Waller kept their relationship relatively private before tying the knot on March 4, 2023. However, just over a year later, in April 2024, the couple filed for divorce, right before the start of the WNBA season.
On June 9, Waller announced his retirement from the NFL, citing a “very scary” health emergency in November 2023 as a turning point that made him reevaluate his life. While he hangs up his football cleats, Waller is expected to pursue a career in music. His song “Who Knew,” released in May and reportedly about his former partner Plum, received mixed reviews, with some critics commenting on its lack of quality.
