Hyman accused Black of exposing himself and harassing women there, including her. Following her complaint, Gold’s Gym revoked her membership.
#goldsgym terminated my membership after the MAN was escorted out by police. Then had me escorted out by officers afterwards. I left but not before making sure everyone KNEW that they were allowing MEN in the locker room !!!!! — Tish Hyman (@listen2tish) November 3, 2025

After legally changing his name, Black adopted his ex-wife’s first name, Alexis. His criminal record also includes convictions for domestic violence, drug trafficking, and resisting arrest.
