Michael Jordan is widely known because of his remarkable basketball career which lasted for 15 years. His dominance on the hardwood still echoes, and a majority of the population knows the NBA by Jordan’s face. However, with this popularity, there have been numerous allegations against him of se*ual affairs, love children, gambling, etc.

One of them was by a Georgia woman named Pamela Smith who filed a paternity suit against His Airness. According to her, she and Jordan had s*x in the year 1995, which resulted in her being pregnant. Smith allegedly gave birth to Jordan’s son whom she named Grant Pierce Jay Jordan Reynolds in June 1996.

During this time, Jordan was married to his now ex-wife Juanita Vanoy. The two got married in 1989. Their 17-year-long marriage ended with the most expensive divorce settlement. If the allegations are true then Jordan was married when he got involved with Smith. She could potentially be among the six women that Vanoy allegedly caught Jordan with.

Furthermore, Smith demanded $5,000,000 from Jordan in her paternity suit for medical expenses and child support. Notably, this is not the first time someone has alleged that their child is Jordan’s. In 2003, Karla Knafel filed a case against Jordan stating that her child was a result of her se*ual relationship with Jordan. However, the DNA test stated that the child was not Jordan’s.

Who is Jay Jordan Reynolds?

One of the most intriguing aspects of Pamela Smith’s allegations is that she is not the only one who publicly says about this. Her son Jay Jordan Reynolds took to YouTube, to talk about how he is Michael Jordan’s son. In the video, he also mentions how MJ should be in his life among other things.  He stated, “I have some exclusive, exclusive information I feel like everybody should know”.

Jay continued, “If you’ve been hearing any rumors about Michael Jordan’s son on Twitter, Instagram . . . any of that — it’s true”. He also emphasized that Michael Jordan is aware of this and that Jay has also met him in real life. “He should be more in my life about it, too, ’cause if I was somebody’s dad, I would want to be in my kid’s life, ya feel me?”, he added. 

Michael’s alleged son also revealed that his intention behind making the video is that he doesn’t wish to remain in the dark. Additionally, Jay wanted everyone to know about this and stop behind secretive himself. In addition to Jay, April Love who is Smith’s friend spoke to ‘The Post‘ about their relationship. She revealed that Jordan and Smith met in 1987.

Furthermore, she stated that they were in a great relationship and loved each other. However, things ended between them and both married someone else. The two met again in 1995 when Smith made a visit to meet Jordan, and this is when she got pregnant. MJ has maintained his silence about this, and without any solid proof, these are just allegations.
