Rockets player Jalen Green has reportedly fathered a child while his girlfriend is expecting. The report stated that a 23-year-old lady called Myah Lakopo gave birth on February 12, 2024.

According to TMZ, there is no ill will between the child’s mother and his pregnant girlfriend, Draya Michele. 

According to the sources, Myah doesn’t have an issue with Green spreading his seeds simultaneously and also hasn’t spoken to Draya. 

According to reports, Green and Myah, a college student, were never in a “serious” relationship when their daughter, Peace Moira Lakopo, was conceived.

Based on the baby’s last name, Myah may not want anything to do with Green other than co-parenting. 

Draya and Jalen celebrated their baby girl’s upcoming arrival last month with a cherry-themed baby shower. 

Guests caught footage of the pair celebrating with friends and family, while Draya wore a ruby-red three-piece ensemble with Green wearing a red and white pinstriped set.

Draya Michele is using her Instagram account as an open diary, giving her fans a new update on her pregnancy on May 1 with a post captioned:

“Some mornings I feel less pregnant than others. #35weeks #pregnant #thirdtrimester,” she wrote. Upon reaching eight months, the mother-of-two also shared how she’s staying “healthy” and “positive.”

“I am in such a renewing space right now. Doing all the things I can to stay healthy and positive during my pregnancy and listening to my elders and their superstitions because of the way evil is projected in this world right now against pregnant women, I can’t take any chances,” she wrote. “Love and light to everyone out there doing their best. #8months.”

The reality star and entrepreneur announced that she was expecting Jalen Green’s baby back in March. The announcement however sparked outrage over their 17-year age gap.

Draya Michele, who is also a former Basketball Wives LA star, already has two sons, aged 21 and seven, from two separate relationships.
