We guess it’s just a matter of time – you can only push something so far before it breaks, even marriage.
Bam Margera has been spiraling out of control for the past few years now. In fact it was close to two years ago today that he posted his infamous drunken video in which he admitted to relapse. Even in the video, you can see his wife’s fear Nikki Boydhis face. And it had been two years since he had given them much reason to feel better. He escaped rehab several times, narrowly escaped death, and even went on a rampage Priscilla Presley of all people.

It’s no surprise that Nikki has reached her limit. TMZ it is the first to report that she filed for legal separation there, after over 9 years of marriage. Nikki listed “irreconcilable differences” as the reason, and boy is she not kidding.
In the statement to peopleher lawyer David Glass confirm the news, explain:
“Nikki Margera feels compelled to file for legal separation from her husband, Bam Margera, due to his continued drug and alcohol abuse, erratic behavior, and lack of support for her and their son. Nikki has done everything she can to keep Bam sane, and trying to keep his family together.
Nikki had clearly been trying for a long time, but now that the dam had broken, she wasn’t pulling any punches. He listed the date of separation from Jackass star September 2021, which means that he has not been his wife since then. It’s harsh but sadly all too fair.
September 2021 is also the time when he filed for full custody of the couple’s now 5-year-old son. Phoenix. At the time we considered divorce was around the corner, but Nikki held on a lot longer than most partners would. Little did I know that there was one thing, the straw that broke the camel’s back here. The only new behavior we know is the lie about Priscilla Presley – which is mortifying obviously, but not exactly personal. Maybe it’s just a matter of time. Maybe, like his friend Steve-Ohe just didn’t want to watch her fall all over…
Nikki is asking for spousal support and full legal and physical custody of Phoenix, although she has agreed to allow Bam visitation, as long as it is local, and all expenses are paid. It seems that he is worried that he is lying they, too. So ugly. These two make a great couple when Bam is clean.
