This is a long and messy story.
Back in November 2016, then-Buffalo Bills running back Reggie Bush, who is married to Lilit Avagyan, took a major L by getting a side-chick pregnant, Monique Exposito, who was also married at the time.
Bush allegedly tried to keep it quiet when he gave her $3 million to get an abortion. She kept the money and had the baby anyway.
Fast forward to this week, and the baby mama is throwing shots at the father of her child.
The now-retired former NFL running back took to Instagram and posted about how he overcame not having a father in his life and how he plans on not doing that to his children.
This the love I never got from my real dad growing up and and I always wondered why? But instead of crying about it I suppressed it thinking it would go away, it didn’t. Football taught me to never show weakness, to always tough it out, to kill those emotions such as crying because that’s what it meant to be a man, or so I thought! The effects were rough and it left a lot of anger and resentment in my heart and it almost killed me. I never really learned from a man how to face my fears head on and overcome them. I never really learned how to be a man from a man. Much of who I am today, I learned through football and the men I watched in it. The issue with that is those men were just as broken as me so I picked up a lot of bad habits and lost a lot of my character within the sport! As I got older I realized my dad never had his dad in his life, in fact my dad just met his dad for the first time about 5 years ago. My dad is 53 years old and wouldn’t you know it my grandfather has lived in LA this whole time. They met once and my grandfather kept it moving! My dad is born and raised in south central LA and went to Crenshaw High School so LA has always been a big part of my life growing up! Me and that 405 freeway have a deep rooted history! Lol! So this message is to my biological grandfather Earl McGee who I’ve never met and is still alive: your absence as a father has lingered through generations but I will make sure that cycle stops with me. All my kids will have a beautiful relationship with me and none of them will experience the same pain my dad had that was in turn passed down to me! And to my pops I love you with all my heart and I’m glad we have this time to make up for lost time! The problem in America right now is this story is very common for a lot of young #BlackBoys I am just one of millions…I hope this message helps some kids out there you don’t have to allow your upbringing to hold you back! ✊?

Well, his former side-chick saw that post and decided to post on her own Instagram that seemed to take a shot at what he wrote by stating he isn’t doing anything for the child she had with him.
“Your upbringing is all my bringing papi lindooooo all mommy !!!!”
Despite their rocky past and how the child came about, this definitely needs to be something that is handled off of social media because this child did not ask to be here and embroiled in this mess.
Let’s take a look at Reggie’s former sidechick:
