Popular radio personality Big Tigger announced over the weekend that he is stepping away from his V-103 show amidst legal drama. The decision comes after his arrest on charges of aggravated battery and cruelty to children, stemming from an argument with his wife. His wife, Alicia Brown, has filed a federal defamation lawsuit against a V-103 co-host, Francesca Amiker, alleging false statements on social media. Big Tigger, whose real name is Darian Morgan, cited the need to focus on his family and legal matters as the reason for his temporary departure from the spotlight.
