Anthony Edwards has allegedly filed a paternity test and child support petition against Ayesha Howard, who shares a child with Lil Baby. The NBA star hopes a genetic test will help determine if he has a child with her, according to a new report from Page Six. “Applicant requests an order establishing the paternity of the minor child if genetic testing reveals that applicant is the father,” the document filed in Georgia last month said.
When The Neighborhood Talk posted the rumor on Instagram, fans were heavily critical of both parties. One user wrote: “Why does he keep having babies on his girlfriend??? This is why everyone thinks men hate the women in their families.” Another added: “This is what little talk about on the internet is about It’s always been you Saddddd.”

Edwards is currently starring in Netflix’s “Starting 5” as he prepares for the start of his fifth season in the NBA. One episode of the show documented the 23-year-old’s reaction when his girlfriend Shannon went into labor during a match. He eventually left the game at halftime to be by her side. Earlier this year, Atlanta Black Star also reported that another woman named “Ally D” on social media allegedly gave birth to a son with Edwards. “Our son is 8 months old…the children were not born at the same time, just a few months apart. A little girl was born in September, and our son had another in October, and then he had another,” she claimed on Instagram at the time.
