Former University of Michigan head football coach Sherrone Moore loved to gush about his wife, Kelli Moore, before allegations of an "inappropriate relationship" with a staff member led to his downfall. Sherrone, 39, and Kelli got married in 2015 and share three daughters: Shiloh, born in 2019, Solei, born in 2022, and Sadie, born earlier this year. "Happy three year anniversary to my life partner and best friend," Sherrone wrote via Instagram in July 2018. "So proud of you and all your accomplishments. I am so happy and blessed beyond measure to call you my wife as the man upstairs leads us to live through him. Love you soo much and excited about what the future holds for us!" Months prior to that, Sherrone celebrated Kelli's birthday with a collage of photos from their life together. "Happy Birthday to the most beautiful, caring, intelligent, selfless woman in the world!" Sherrone shared via Instagram. "I am so blessed to be able to call her my wife and best friend! I am so proud of all you have done and can't wait for what the future holds! You motivate me to be the best I can be with a smile on my face everyday!" He continued, "Thank you and hope this birthday is the best one so far! I love you @klenzmoore ! Have a wonderful day!" Kelli responded in the comments, telling her husband, "I'll never know how I got so blessed to be your wife. But I thank God every day for you. I love you SO much!! Thank you for making my birthday/birthday weekend so amazing. You're the best." Courtesy of Sherrone Moore/Instagram Sherrone sent holiday wishes to his followers in December 2017, sharing a picture of himself, Kelli and their dog. "Merry Christmas from our family to yours!!" he wrote via Instagram. "Hope everyone has blessed holidays! 🎄🎄" Sherrone's first-ever Instagram post came two days before that, celebrating the anniversary of his proposal to Kelli. "3 years ago today I made the best decision of my life to ask this beautiful woman @klenzmoore to be my wife!" Sherrone shared. "She is my life partner, rock & my best friend! I love you!" He added the hashtag "#marriedanangel" to his post. Sherrone was fired from his job as the head football coach at the University of Michigan on Wednesday, December 10, after an investigation found "credible evidence" that Sherrone had engaged in an "inappropriate relationship" with a staff member. "U-M head football coach Sherrone Moore has been terminated, with cause, effective immediately," athletic director Warde Manuel said in a statement. "Following a University investigation, credible evidence was found that Coach Moore engaged in an inappropriate relationship with a staff member. This conduct constitutes a clear violation of University policy, and U-M maintains zero tolerance for such behavior." In 911 dispatch audio released by TMZ Sports on Thursday, December 11, Kelli told authorities Sherrone was "suicidal" after losing his job. Sherrone Moore Thought People Were 'Out to Get Him' Before His Shocking Arrest On Wednesday afternoon around 4:10 p.m., Sherrone was taken into custody after allegedly "attacking" a woman at the address of a Michigan football employee. The woman claimed Moore had been "stalking her for months." Moore was booked into the Washtenaw County Jail on Wednesday evening, where he currently remains. He is set to be arraigned on Friday, December 12. If you or someone you know is in emotional distress or considering suicide, call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-TALK (8255).
