richard-jefferson-six-figure-settlement-with-dumped-fiancee-kesha-nicol-nichols

As previously reported (yesterday), NBA baller Richard Jefferson got cold feet and left his bride to be before their wedding day…ummm via email! Yes, he told her that he couldn’t go through with the wedding thru an email. Anywho, he forgot to notify his guests who all showed up for the wedding.

According to Yahoo! and AOL Sports nearly 100 people showed up in New York City last Saturday to watch Jefferson wed former New Jersey Nets dancer Kesha Ni’Cole Nichols.

He never showed up at the hotel, but “all his boys were there,” says a friend. “He gave his best friend the Black Amex [credit card] for the night.”

Jefferson’s guests made good use of the credit card to party on their pal’s dime.

Jefferson and his former fiancée had planned an elaborate wedding ceremony, expected to cost more than $2 million. The couple also planned to honeymoon in London, complete with tickets to the Michael Jackson concert.

Jefferson has decided to smooth things over with his ex-fiancee by offering her a “six-figure” settlement…

“I’m not trying to buy her off. She has a lump sum to help her move on,” the former Nets star explained in an interview with The Chicago Sun-Times.

“There was a lot of stress and tension in the relationship. We’ve been through a lot — but we just couldn’t continue…”

WOW! Well at least she lucked out! Sheesh!
