Career
Before becoming a famous ex-wife, Jean Muggli was employed as a manager at a cosmetic store. But when her divorce proceedings brought forth accusations of child abuse, her life became chaotic. Michael Strahan accused her of both physical and emotional abuse, which greatly affected the custody battle for their twin daughters.
The legal dispute was intensified by accusations in court documents that they prevented their children from participating in sports. However, despite these challenges, Michael Strahan went on to achieve great success in the media world, leaving a significant impact on both the worlds of football and television.

Following her tumultuous divorce from Michael Strahan, Jean Muggli has chosen to keep her romantic affairs private. She was the second spouse of the ex-NFL player, with his first marriage to Wanda Hutchins lasting from 1992 to 1996. Muggli has also maintained a low profile for an extended period.

The internet was abuzz with a video of her arrest. In an interview with The Sun, Marianne referred to Muggli as a sociopath and narcissist for trying to share her nude pictures.
