Although Juan’s salary has changed since his NBA days, he and Robyn are in a much better place financially. In October 2022, the couple finished building the massive new home they built from scratch. Robyn told Bravo the house was the fresh start the couple needed after struggling financially for nearly a decade.

On RHOP, Robyn and Juan revealed that they were broke. In 2012, Juan’s former friend and teammate, Earl Badu, offered to invest his and Robyn’s money. Instead, Badu reportedly stole thousands of dollars from the couple before he died by suicide in September 2012.

After the financial fallout, Robyn filed for bankruptcy for their family. Thankfully, the couple got back on their feet and are planning their second wedding on RHOP Season 7.
