Tyreek Hill's Divorce Turns Ugly With 5-Month Old Daughter In The Middle

Tyreek Hill has been accused of weaponizing his daughter amid his divorce from Keeta Hill.

The NFL star's ex claimed he is using their 5-month-old to control and manipulate their divorce process, especially custody and child support.

Tyreek Hill's former partner, Keeta Hill, moved to divorce the athlete last month, shortly after local authorities made an urgent stop at their home.

His estranged wife accused the NFL star of using their 5-month-old daughter as a means to manipulate her following their divorce filing.

Keeta has sought legal intervention, claiming that when Tyreek visited their marital home on May 1, he repeatedly altered his plans regarding where he intended to take their baby.

During his visit, Tyreek allegedly threatened to upset Keeta by taking their daughter to Los Angeles for the weekend, indicating that his intentions were more about intimidation than genuine parental interest.

Keeta described his behavior as coercive, aimed at deterring her from pursuing her marital and child support rights. She noted that Tyreek later texted her to say he would return the baby home instead, characterizing his actions as "impulsive" and "erratic."

Keeta also expressed concerns about Tyreek's involvement in their child's care. She claimed he is unaware of important details such as the child's sleep schedule, preferred foods, and daily routines. 

In her motion per In Touch, she stated that Tyreek prioritizes his needs above those of their child. Additionally, Keeta is seeking a court order to prevent Tyreek from leaving Florida with the child without prior notification or until a temporary custody ruling is made.

Keeta's divorce filing from her estranged husband marked the second attempt to dissolve their marriage since they wed in 2023. As shared by The Blast, Tyreek had initially filed for divorce just months after their wedding, later describing that decision as a mistake and claiming they were happy together. 

However, court documents show that Keeta submitted her filing on a Tuesday in April, following a domestic dispute incident at their Miami home the day before. According to a report from the Sunny Isles Beach Police, the situation escalated after Keeta's mother, Alesia Vaccaro, called emergency services.

Alesia alleged that Tyreek was throwing a computer and behaving aggressively with their daughter. When officers arrived, Keeta informed them that ongoing arguments between the couple had become frequent.

She disclosed that a recent disagreement, sparked by Tyreek's lack of involvement with their daughter, had led to increased tensions, ultimately culminating in the altercation. As the situation unfolded, Keeta's attorney emphasized the importance of privacy in family matters.

Tyreek provided his perspective on the minor altercation, revealing that a remark made by his estranged wife concerning their daughter deeply angered him. In response, he approached her, took the baby, and began walking around the apartment. The athlete reportedly declared:

"I have the same rights as a father as her mother, and I can take my baby whenever I want." 

Despite the dispute, police arrived but determined that the argument never escalated to a physical altercation. As a result, no arrests were made, and the officers closed the case without further investigation.

The Miami Dolphins also addressed the situation in a statement, confirming that they were aware of the police being called to Tyreek's home. They noted that after speaking with Tyreek and his family, the police left without incident, and the case was considered closed.

The team mentioned they have communicated with Tyreek and the NFL but will not provide any additional comments on the matter.

Tyreek is not new to accusations of altercations, one of which he pled guilty. The footballer's legal troubles began during his college years when he was arrested in December 2014 for assaulting his then-pregnant girlfriend, Crystal Espinal.

Reports indicated that he allegedly punched and choked her during an argument, leading to his dismissal from Oklahoma State University's football and track teams.

He ultimately pleaded guilty to domestic assault and battery by strangulation, resulting in a three-year probation sentence along with requirements to complete anger management classes and a domestic violence program.

Years later, in 2019, while playing for the Kansas City Chiefs, the wide receiver faced another serious allegation involving his young son, who suffered a broken arm. 

A child abuse investigation was launched, and both Tyreek and his then-partner temporarily lost custody of their child. During this period, an audio recording emerged in which the footballer allegedly threatened his ex, saying, "You need to be terrified of me too, b-tch."

Despite the serious nature of these allegations, prosecutors cited insufficient evidence and opted not to file charges against him. The NFL also chose not to suspend him, which drew criticism from fans and commentators.

Last year, The Blast shared that two women, namely Brittany Lackner and Kimberly Kaylee Baker, had filed separate child support cases against Tyreek Hill. Lackner claimed that a prenatal paternity test indicated over 99.9% probability that the footballer is the father of her child. 

Despite the first test, the footballer refused to pay the requested $2,500 monthly support unless a second DNA test was conducted. She criticized the monthly amount as "woefully inadequate," especially given Tyreek's impressive annual salary of $30 million. 

Baker also voiced similar concerns, stating that she receives the same child support amount while incurring nearly $10,000 in expenses for their daughter, Trae Love Hill. Interestingly, both women had their children with Hill in 2023, the same year he married his long-time fiancé, Keeta.

Will Tyreek Hill's estranged wife eventually get custody of their daughter based on her concerns?
