Pete Rose's estranged wife, Carol, insists the Hit King and former Big Red Machine great remains a "high stakes gambler" who has significant debts with casinos and the IRS and fails to pay support on time, according to documents reported Monday by TMZ and reviewed by USA TODAY Sports.
Carol Rose married Pete in 1984. A divorce case began in 2011, according to documents, and the two are still married despite their separation. Pete and girlfriend Kiana Kim got engaged in 2011.
Carol Rose claims the Reds Hall of Famer makes more than $1 million per year, mostly from endorsements and autograph signings.
