Tyreek Hill's shocking family life: 7 kids with multiple women and the truth behind paternity drama
Tyreek Hill balances his demanding NFL career with the responsibilities of being a father to seven children from multiple relationships (Getty Images)
Tyreek Hill may be known to NFL fans as the explosive wide receiver for the Miami Dolphins, but off the field, the 31-year-old juggles an equally demanding role: being a father to seven children.
Known as "Cheetah" for his unmatched speed, Hill's family life has often sparked headlines—not just for the number of children he has, but also for the complexities that come with raising them while maintaining a high-profile sports career.
A complicated family dynamic with children from multiple relationships
Tyreek Hill reportedly shares his seven children with multiple women, including his now estranged wife, Keeta Vaccaro. Their youngest, Capri, was born in 2024. Before Vaccaro, Hill was in a long-term relationship with Crystal Espinal, with whom he shares three children: Zev (born in 2014), and twins Nakeem and Nyla (born in 2017).
The twins were born after the couple had split, which led Espinal to file a paternity suit to dispel rumors surrounding the timeline of their breakup and the children's birth.
Despite the legal complexities, Hill embraced fatherhood wholeheartedly. 'I just feel like I'm truly blessed,' he told USA Today in 2020. 'Each and every day I get up, I get a chance to play the game that I love, be around people who are loving, and then I get a chance to be around my kids and be in their lives.

I feel like I'm truly blessed."
Balancing NFL stardom with fatherhood isn't always easy
Managing life as a professional athlete and a father to seven kids is no small feat. Hill candidly discussed this during a 2023 appearance on the It Needed to be Said podcast. 'Earlier in my career, bro, I'd come home and my kids would be like, 'Dad, it's play time, let's play, let's play, let's run around.' I'm like, 'Bro, I'm tired. Your dad is tired.' Like I got to learn these plays and I gotta watch these films."
These struggles reveal a more human side to the NFL superstar—one that fans rarely see behind the game-day highlights and touchdowns. Over time, Hill has adjusted to the demands of being both a dedicated father and an elite athlete.

Fans speculate Rockstar might launch in-character social media for GTA 6
Source: Rockstar Games With anticipation mounting for Grand Theft Auto 6, enthusiasts are already speculating how Rockstar Games can push its promotions to new heights. One notion picking up steam on the web is the probability of in-game social media profiles for main characters Jason and Lucia. Taking a page from the high-profile wanted poster campaign for Niko Bellic from GTA IV, enthusiasts feel that a contemporary, virtual twist could spawn a viral marketing craze before launch. Fans envision viral posts and want posters for Jason and Lucia On social media and online discussion forums, GTA enthusiasts are abuzz with ideas on how Rockstar might market GTA 6 through contemporary platforms. Some have even asked to have the global wanted poster campaign return, this time featuring Jason and Lucia. — rockstationonx (@rockstationonx) One fan wrote, "I Hope That Jason and Lucia will have wanted posters in whole world it will be so cool" Another wrote, "The Niko Bellic wanted poster was such a cool promotional move, and seeing something similar for Jason and Lucia could really build more hype for GTA 6. Maybe they could even drop interactive social media pages with "wanted updates" or crime scene photos..." These theories propose Rockstar would leverage platforms such as Instagram or X to maintain in-character accounts, posting ambiguous updates or teaser material directly from Jason or Lucia's point of view. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo It's a notion that would integrate contemporary social interaction with Rockstar's knack for interactive narrative. Why fan-driven ideas could shape GTA 6's most immersive promotions yet Thus far, Rockstar has kept mum outside of its official trailer releases and the latest community-building initiatives such as the GTA 6 Discord launch. Although the developer hasn't intimated in-character social profiles, the past history of this creative marketing, such as Niko's posters and Red Dead Redemption 2 environmental teases, indicates that it's always scouting out new ways to engage with the community. Since social media is so deeply integrated into daily life, opening up fictional accounts for Lucia and Jason might give Rockstar an alternative method of building hype around character information, locations, or even storylines in the game, without revealing actual gameplay. While confirmation remains to be seen, the concept of wanted posters and in-game social media profiles keeps fan fervor for GTA 6 going. Should Rockstar run with this rumor, it might blur the lines between virtual and real life, just the kind of daring thing fans have grown accustomed to.

Manipur's Suman eager to cement her place in the Indian women's hockey team
As the Indian women's hockey team begins their European leg of FIH Pro League against Australia at Lee Valley Hockey & Tennis Centre in London on Saturday, one player who will be more than eager to showcase her skills is Manipur's Suman Devi Thoudam. After breaking into the senior team as a teenager way back in 2017 during a Test series against Belarus in Bhopal under the then coach Sjoerd Marijne, she went onto play 12 matches including the 2018 Asian Champions Trophy where India finished second behind South Korea. She played few more games after that but couldn't ever cement her place in the squad and last played during the 2022 Pro League against the Netherlands in Bhubaneswar. However, she has made a comeback into the squad after three years and made her presence felt during India's tour of Australia last month where the Harendra Singh-coached side played five matches and won one. Speaking about her return, Suman said, "During the first game, I felt a bit nervous. But I had played under Harendra sir earlier and he gave me a lot of confidence. Sushila Chanu has also supported me a lot at the camp." by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Buy Brass Idols - Handmade Brass Statues for Home & Gifting Luxeartisanship Buy Now Undo And the person who was the happiest seeing her return to the team was her father. A hockey player himself during his youth at the local club level, Thoudam Anand Singh used to wear his daughter's jersey and proudly stroll around the neighbourhood. "He stopped doing it though after I was dropped from the team. He had told me then that he would wear them after I made it to the team again," added Suman. A carpenter by profession till a few years back, Anand, hopefully, has started wearing them now and will be watching the Pro League games from Imphal home, where he resides along with his wife. However, this remarkable return wouldn't have been possible but for the coaches at National Centre of Excellence (NCOE) in Delhi, who gave Suman all the support she needed. "After I was dropped from the squad, I trained hard and worked a lot on my fitness but never did I feel that hockey was over for me. I obviously felt sad but I kept telling myself that I have enough time in my hands to make a comeback," added Suman, who also landed a job in Indian Oil Corporation (IOC) in 2022, much to the relief of her family. This struggle though wasn't anything compared to when she first came to Madhya Pradesh Hockey Academy in 2014 and struggled to get accustomed. "I couldn't understand Hindi even a bit, I used to feel nervous and scared, felt like crying and wanted to go back home," recollected the defender, who also led the U-21 side in two invitational meets in 2019. Luckily she persevered and today she has another chance to prove to everybody what she is capable of. And what better opponents to do it against than Australia.
