Ayesha Howard Accuses NBA Star Anthony Edwards of Hiding Assets to Evade Child Support
Ayesha Howard has leveled serious allegations against NBA player Anthony Edwards, claiming he “intentionally” concealed assets to evade his child support responsibilities for their daughter, Aubri’.
Child Support Filing in Los Angeles Superior Court
In documents exclusively obtained by Page Six, Howard filed a request for an order regarding child support in the Los Angeles Superior Court. This filing was made on Thursday and includes claims that she has “discovered evidence” showing that the Minnesota Timberwolves shooting guard has a “substantial and ongoing business and financial presence” in California.
Substantial Financial Presence
Howard’s court filing outlines several specific claims regarding Edwards’ financial activities in California. She points to the existence of a business LLC and several trademarks registered in the state. Furthermore, Howard asserts that Edwards has a bank account located in Beverly Hills and has previously engaged with sports agencies tied to California-based representatives.
“This newly discovered evidence demonstrates that [Edwards] maintained a business, financial, contractual, and economic presence in California for approximately six years,” the documents state.
Concealment of Assets
The Instagram model argues that Edwards, who is only 24 years old, “deliberately concealed and misrepresented his California connections” in a sworn testimony. He had previously claimed that the California court lacked personal jurisdiction over him due to the absence of personal ties or business connections within the state.
Howard is now petitioning the California court for a revision of her original child support order, asserting that Edwards’ alleged concealment of his assets invalidated the previous ruling regarding personal jurisdiction in the child support case.
Background on the Child Support Dispute
In October 2024, Page Six reported that Edwards filed a petition for paternity and child support in Georgia, just a month before Howard had given birth to their daughter, Aubri’. Howard is also the mother of a son, Jason, from her previous relationship with rapper Lil Baby.
In subsequent court documents, Howard revealed that she and Edwards had spent considerable time together in various cities while he played for the Minnesota Timberwolves. She noted that she discovered her pregnancy in January 2024 and that Edwards was allegedly displeased upon hearing the news, even urging her to consider an abortion.
Edwards’ Family Background
Anthony Edwards is a father to three children with different women. Alongside his daughter Aislynn, born in March 2024 with girlfriend Shannon Jackson, he has two other children: daughter Aris, who is 2, with Daja Carlyle, and son Amir, also 2, with Alexandria Desroches.
Conclusion
As this legal battle unfolds, the implications for both Howard and Edwards continue to garner public interest. Page Six has attempted to reach both Howard and Edwards’ legal representatives for comments but has yet to receive a response.
