‘Didn’t the dude have 2/3 kids this yr?’: Anthony Edwards’ alleged kids with two IG models go missing in Paris and fans have questions

Anthony Edwards has already made headlines at the 2024 Paris Olympics — but not for his performance with Team USA men’s basketball on the biggest stage in international sport.

On Friday, July 26, social media caused quite a stir when a photograph appeared of Edwards, his girlfriend Shannon, and his daughter Aislynn, all dressed in their official Ralph Lauren Olympic kits.

NBA Fashion Fits Instagram page was one among the social media pages fasting family movie. The platform captioned the photo: “Honestly, the best choice for a date! Family Man AE.”

The comments section was immediately flooded with questions from people asking him about his other children and the paternity battle he’ll soon face in family court.

“N—ga is acting like this is his only child,” one person wrote, accompanied by a series of laughing emojis and greater than 60 responses pondering whether he should acknowledge his alleged second child before a DNA test proves he’s “not the father.”

“If you put his baby next to Ally D’s other baby that he doesn’t claim yet…they REALLY look alike but I always say DNA doesn’t lie, just get a DNA test and do the right thing,” one other fan wrote.

A 3rd person wrote: “The guy has 30,000 mothers,” while one other commenter said: “I bet he doesn’t even think of himself as a family man… this guy ended up on the streets.”

“Didn’t this dude have 2/3 kids this year?” one fan asked, referring to the wave of rumors that Edwards fathered not less than 1-2 other children while with Shannon.

Earlier this month, a girl named Ally D posted on Instagram claiming that the 22-year-old fathered her son. According to Ally, their child was born three months before Shannon gave birth Aislynn’s birth in March. In a series of alleged text messages between Ally and Edwards, Ally asked what number of children they’d, to which she confirmed it was three (including hers).

Ally D also showed a redacted copy of the DNA test, alluding to the confirmation that the basketball star is the father of her child. However, she claims he didn’t react.

X users who got here across AE’s family photo were much more chaotic. One user wrote that the photo was “too cute,” but then asked, “Was that the child he tried to pay to have an abortion, or is this different?”

Last December, Instagram model Paige Jordae accused Edwards of offering her $100,000 to terminate her pregnancy.

According to alleged text messages exchanged between the two, someone, presumably Edwards, requested a video of Paige taking medication to terminate her pregnancy.

Edwards later issued a press release confirming the alleged request but didn’t provide details aside from to say the comment was made “in the spur of the moment.”

“I made comments in the heat of the moment that were not me and that are not aligned with what I believe in and who I want to be as a man,” Edwards said on Dec. 18. “All women should be supported and able to make their own decisions about their bodies and what is best for them. I am dealing with my personal matters privately and will not be commenting on them any further at this time.”

Edwards has not responded to the criticism on social media, as a substitute specializing in his game. Shannon, Aislynn and Shannon’s son Krue, whom she shares with rapper Chief Keef, were in Paris to observe Edwards’ Olympic debut.

On July 28, Team USA won a giant 110-84 victory over Serbia, with the Timberwolves star scoring 11 points. While the team was celebrating their dominance in the game, the 22-year-old made a “suck it” gesture at the opposing team, going viral and diverting attention from his personal life.

The U.S. men’s national basketball team will face South Sudan on July 31.
