After the separation of NBA star Carmelo Anthony and actress/television personality LaLa Anthony became public, rumors swirled that the split was the result of Carmelo impregnating an exotic dancer.
A source close to Melo’s camp told Page Six that the side baby rumors are not true.
“The stripper pregnancy rumor is not true. Yes he’s not been perfect, but the baby with a stripper isn’t true.” The source said. “Melo’s tagline was, ‘She’s married, I’m not.’ That’s how he would justify it. His attitude is that all professional athletes do it, and many of them do. La La has put up with a lot. She knew it was going on, but I guess this time she’s had enough.”
Meanwhile, multiple sources online claim there is a baby on the way but the mother is not a stripper.
