Tyreek Hill and his 5-month-old daughter are at the center of an ugly divorce

Tyreek Hill, who is divorcing Keeta Hill, has been charged with using his daughter as a weapon.

The NFL player’s former partner accused him of controlling and manipulating their divorce proceedings, particularly with regard to custody and child support, by using their 5-month-old.

Keeta Hill, Tyreek Hill’s ex-partner, filed for the athlete’s divorce last month, just after local police made an urgent visit to their residence.

Tyreek Hill was accused by his estranged wife of trying to pressure her into altering her case.

After filing for divorce, the NFL player’s estranged wife accused him of manipulating her with their 5-month-old kid.

Keeta has filed a lawsuit, alleging that Tyreek changed his plans on several occasions when he came to their marital residence on May 1 to take their child.

Tyreek reportedly threatened to upset Keeta by taking their daughter to Los Angeles for the weekend while he was there, suggesting that his motivations were more intimidatory than sincere parental concern.

In order to prevent her from asserting her rights to child support and marital status, Keeta characterized his actions as coercive. Tyreek later texted her to say he would take the infant back home instead, she said, calling his behavior “impulsive” and “erratic.”

Keeta was also worried about Tyreek’s role in looking after their child. Important information like the child’s sleep pattern, favorite foods, and daily habits, she said, are unknown to him. 

She said that Tyreek puts his needs ahead of their child’s in her move, as reported by In Touch. Keeta is also requesting a court order for Tyreek to be prohibited from leaving Florida with the child until a temporary custody decision is reached or without prior notice.

The NFL star’s estranged wife’s divorce filing inside

After getting married in 2023, Keeta filed for divorce from her estranged spouse for the second time. Tyreek had originally filed for divorce a few months after their wedding, according to information obtained by The Blast. Tyreek then called that decision a mistake and stated that they were content together. 

Nonetheless, according to court records, Keeta filed her case on a Tuesday in April after a domestic disturbance at their Miami residence the previous day. The scenario worsened after Keeta’s mother, Alesia Vaccaro, called emergency services, according to a Sunny Isles Beach Police report.

Alesia claimed Tyreek was acting aggressively toward their daughter and hurling a computer. When the police showed there, Keeta told them that the couple had started fighting frequently.

She revealed that tensions had escalated recently due to Tyreek’s lack of involvement with their daughter, which finally resulted in the confrontation. As events transpired, Keeta’s lawyer stressed how crucial privacy is in family affairs.

With regard to his daughter, the Miami Dolphins wide receiver affirmed his rights.

Tyreek commented on the small scuffle, saying that he was extremely offended by a comment his divorced wife made about their kid. He came up to her, took the infant, and started to move about the flat. The sportsman allegedly said: 

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

Even though police showed up, they concluded that the debate had never turned into a violent altercation. Consequently, no arrests were made, and the officers dropped the case without conducting any additional research.

The Miami Dolphins also responded to the matter in a statement, acknowledging that they were informed that Tyreek’s residence had been visited by police. They mentioned that the police left without incident after talking to Tyreek and his family, and the situation was deemed resolved.

The team said they have spoken with Tyreek and the NFL, but they won’t be saying anything more about it.

The 31-year-old had been arrested for multiple assault cases in the past.

Tyreek has been accused of altercations before, and he pled guilty to one of them. The football player’s legal issues started when he was a college student and was arrested in December 2014 for beating Crystal Espinal, his then-girlfriend who was pregnant.

He reportedly choked and punched her during a fight, which resulted in his expulsion from the football and track teams at Oklahoma State University.

Finally, he entered a guilty plea to domestic assault and battery by strangulation, which led to a three-year probationary period and the completion of a domestic violence program and anger management programs.

Years later, in 2019, the wide receiver was the target of another major accusation concerning his young son, who had a fractured arm while playing for the Kansas City Chiefs. 

Tyreek and his ex-partner were briefly denied custody of their child after a child abuse inquiry was opened. In an audio tape that surfaced at this time, the football player allegedly threatened his ex-girlfriend by saying, “You need to be terrified of me too, b-tch.”
