Feldman’s report quotes the former Oakland Raiders, Tennessee Volunteers and USC Trojans head coach on the matter:
“After a lot of careful thought and consideration, Layla and I have mutually decided to divorce,” Lane Kiffin said. “We are fully committed to our kids’ future being our No. 1 priority. We will maintain an amicable relationship with respect for each other as we raise these three wonderful children. We will have no further comments and appreciate respect for our family’s privacy.”
This is certainly no joking matter. We wish the Kiffin family the best.
