Anthony Edwards Accuses Ex Ayesha Howard of Trapping Him with Pregnancy

Los Angeles, CA — NBA star Anthony Edwards is accusing his former girlfriend, Ayesha Howard, of “trapping” him after she became pregnant with their daughter, Aubri, born in October 2024. In recent legal documents, Edwards claims Howard’s actions were manipulative and deceptive.

According to InTouch, Edwards discovered documents indicating that Howard may have used an ovulation tracker to plan the pregnancy. His lawyer stated, “It is clear that the conception of the minor child was a planned-out scheme for Ayesha,” emphasizing that Howard’s sole connection to California involves her pursuit of a child support order.

Edwards’ legal team argues that Howard’s application for child support in California is a “bad-faith attempt to game the system.” They contend she has no legitimate ties to the state, alleging that she has failed to provide evidence of residency, such as a rental or mortgage contract.

“Ayesha has failed to provide any evidence demonstrating that she pays utilities in California, rents a home in California, has signed a lease in California or had any connection to California,” his lawyer claimed. The team asserts that Howard is seeking financial benefits rather than acting in the best interest of their child.

In response, Howard told InTouch, “My daughter Aubri deserves a future built on honesty and integrity not decisions clouded by errors or injustices.” A judge has yet to make a decision on whether Howard will face sanctions for her actions.
