Ayesha and Stephen Curry allegedly cheated on each other
One of the biggest controversies surrounding the marriage of Ayesha and Steph is that the two are said to be cheating on each other. Despite being in a happy married life, from time to time, the two have to face infidelity allegations. Neither of the two addressed these, and the people claiming this don’t have any solid proof either.
Notably, one of the websites which goes by the name of ‘Media Takeout‘ was among the first ones to report that Steph cheated on Ayesha. As per them, he did so when his wife was pregnant with his youngest child, Canon Curry. Not only this, a Latina Instagram model reportedly reached out to numerous media channels, claiming that she has proof of her affair with Steph.
Furthermore, the word on the street is that Ayesha also cheats on Steph when he is away for his basketball matches. No one has been able to provide any kind of proof, therefore, this remains nothing but allegations. In addition to this, her cheating comment wherein she proceeded to remove her ring and then hid it after seeing a shirtless guy further made fans believe that she was cheating on Steph.
Ayesha Curry commenting that she has zero male attention
Whenever Ayesha Curry appears in interviews, more often than not, her comments turn into controversies. In 2019, she was featured in one of the episodes of ‘Red Table Talk‘ wherein she spoke about her famous husband, Steph. Ayesha candidly revealed how she felt about the kind of attention that Steph receives, especially from the women.
She proceeds to draw the comparison between the attention that she receives from men and the attention that Steph receives from women. Ayesha stated, “I have zero – this sounds weird – but, like, male attention.” In addition to this, she disclosed how she started internalizing this and thinking if something was wrong with her. These comments were taken in a different light and she was highly criticized for it.
Even at the time of the launch of her skincare brand in 2023, people brought back her comments. One of the fans stated that she should never disrespect the king, and many others commented on the same lines. Furthermore, Ayesha has responded that she took it personally that her words were twisted and taken out of context.
Ayesha and Stephen Curry allegedly have an open marriage
One of the biggest allegations about Ayesha and Steph Curry’s marriage is that they have an open marriage. This theory made up by the fans surfaced after Ayesha’s cheating and attention comments went viral. Ever since then, fans have been suspecting that the two have an open marriage with no commitments. Additionally, the allegations that the two are involved with other people outside of their marriage further strengthened this.
However, Ayesha did not remain silent about this allegation and gave somewhat of a warning to the fans. She stated, “Don’t believe everything you read. Do you know how ridiculous that is? Don’t disrespect my marriage like that. Please and thank you.” This did not successfully stop the fans from making comments and believing that the two have an open marriage. Notably, Steph has not commented about the open marriage allegation as of now.
Despite all the controversies that have surrounded Ayesha and Stephen‘s marriage, the two hold on to each other firmly. Their relationship has stood against the test of time and they continue to nourish their three children and achieve individual success as well. Fans await to see if and when more controversies form and what the response of either of them would be.
