In a somber turn of events, Gonzaga Bulldogs head coach Mark Few has announced his separation from his wife, Julie Few, citing personal issues that have led to their decision to divorce. The announcement comes amidst a turbulent period for the coach, following recent controversies involving the program.
In a heartfelt statement released late yesterday, Few expressed his deep sadness over the situation. “It is with a heavy heart that Julie and I have decided to end our marriage. We have worked through many challenges over the years, but unfortunately, we’ve reached a point where we can no longer continue together,” Few said. “Our primary focus now is to handle this transition with respect and privacy for our family, especially for our children.”
The couple, who have been together for over 25 years, have been a fixture in the Gonzaga community. Their personal struggles have been kept largely private until now, but the pressures of Few’s high-profile role and recent controversies surrounding the Bulldogs have seemingly compounded their difficulties.
This announcement comes in the wake of a challenging period for Few and the Gonzaga basketball program. The team has been dealing with heightened scrutiny following an ongoing investigation into drug-related issues and recent performance controversies. The divorce announcement adds to the mounting stress surrounding Few, impacting both his personal and professional life.
Gonzaga University has issued a statement expressing support for Few during this difficult time. “We respect Coach Few’s privacy and are committed to providing him with the support he needs. Our thoughts are with him and his family as they navigate this challenging period,” the statement read.
As Coach Few steps into this new chapter of his life, the Gonzaga community remains hopeful for his well-being and the future of the Bulldogs. The focus now shifts to navigating these personal and professional challenges with sensitivity and understanding.
