Anthony Edwards’ Ex Shuts Down Viral $1 Million Child Support Rumor

In the age of social media, rumors can spread like wildfire—and NBA star Anthony Edwards has just found himself at the center of one. Recently, a viral post claimed that the Minnesota Timberwolves guard paid over $1 million upfront to cover 18 years of child support for his newborn daughter. The twist? It never happened.

Ayesha Howard, Edwards’ ex and the mother of their daughter Aubri’ Summers (born October 2024), has come forward to shut down the false narrative. In a firm statement, Howard called the rumors “lies” and “fake news,” making it clear that no such agreement or legal proceedings have taken place.

“There are no court documents, motions, or proceedings that have occurred, nor have I been offered or agreed to such terms,” she stated.

The story took off on X (formerly known as Twitter), where users speculated wildly about Edwards allegedly requesting to handle child support in one large, upfront payment—an unusual and eyebrow-raising approach, to say the least. But as with many viral posts, it seems fiction got ahead of fact.

As of now, Anthony Edwards has remained silent on the matter, neither confirming nor denying the claims publicly. Howard’s response, however, puts the speculation to rest.

This incident is another reminder of how quickly misinformation can spread and the importance of going straight to the source. In the world of celebrities and pro athletes, public perception can change with a single tweet—but sometimes, the truth just isn’t that sensational.
