I’ve heard the conspiracy theories about Kerry Washington’s personal life. I just don’t know if I believe them. Some say that her out-of-nowhere marriage to Nnamdi Asomugha was not for real, as in Kerry and Nnamdi barely knew each other and they got married for some nefarious reason. Some say Kerry was pregnant and just needed to marry anyone and maybe Nnamdi wasn’t even the father. Considering the timeline of her pregnancy, that theory doesn’t seem likely. Her daughter Isabelle was a honeymoon baby, the timing doesn’t make sense any other way. But still, the conspiracies persist, perhaps because Kerry is so guarded with her personal life, perhaps because Kerry and Nnamdi are rarely (if ever) seen together in public. So it’s no surprise that “sources” are saying that there are big problems in Kerry’s marriage.

Cutie Kerry Washington has yet to celebrate her second wedding anniversary, but she’s already facing a marriage “Scandal!” RadarOnline has learned that the 38-year-old beauty and husband, retired NFL player Nnamdi Asomugha, are in “couples therapy.”

A close source revealed: “The root of the problem is that Nnamdi feels threatened by Kerry’s success.”

Asomugha, 33, has been out of the spotlight since leaving the NFL, while Washington – who plays a Capitol Hill “fixer” on the hit ABC series Scandal – is one of the hottest names in Hollywood.

“Nnamdi’s bitter because he feels he should be the breadwinner,” added the source.

Now the Django Unchained actress is trying to save the marriage with professional help, and she’s getting reassurance from another Hollywood name, according to sources.

“Kerry’s close friends with Gwyneth Paltrow. She’s urged Kerry and Nnamdi to tackle their issues head on,” a pal said. “She’s hoping couples counseling can help them overcome their problems before things reach the point of no return.”

Eh. Don’t get me wrong, since we know absolutely ZERO about Kerry and Nnamdi’s marriage, of course there’s going to be room for these kinds of rumors. Plus, their coupling just seemed to come of nowhere – what do they have in common? How much time do they really spend together? Is Nnamdi really the kind of guy who would be “bitter” about Kerry’s success? We don’t know because no one knows anything about them. So, yes, I’ll believe that Kerry’s marriage is probably going through some tough times because from what I see, Kerry and Nnamdi barely even spend time together.
