A social media storm erupted this week after rumors surfaced linking boxing champion Devin Haney to the ex-girlfriend of NBA player Dejounte Murray, forcing her to go public with a DNA test revelation that has left fans stunned.

What began as a flurry of cryptic posts and gossip-page whispers quickly spiraled into a full-blown controversy. Anonymous accounts began claiming that Haney, known for his high-profile relationships and confident persona, could be the biological father of Murray’s ex’s child — a rumor that spread faster than either athlete could respond.

The woman at the center of it all — who has chosen to remain mostly private since her breakup with Murray — finally addressed the speculation after relentless pressure from followers and media outlets. In a now-viral Instagram Live session, she revealed the results of a paternity test to set the record straight.

“I didn’t want to do this publicly,” she said, visibly emotional. “But since people keep making up stories, here are the facts.” She then held up what appeared to be an official DNA report confirming that Dejounte Murray is indeed the father of her child — not Devin Haney.

The moment went viral instantly. Screenshots, clips, and commentary flooded X (formerly Twitter), TikTok, and Instagram, with fans dissecting every frame. Some praised her for finally putting the rumors to rest, while others questioned how the rumor gained such momentum in the first place.

Haney, for his part, has not commented publicly, but sources close to his camp reportedly dismissed the claims as “completely baseless.” Murray, meanwhile, liked a post defending his ex from online harassment — a subtle gesture that fans took as quiet support.

The situation highlights just how quickly private lives can spiral into public drama in the age of social media. Within hours, a few unverified claims turned into a trending topic that pulled two major sports stars and a private individual into a digital spotlight none of them seemed to want.

Observers say it’s another example of how celebrity relationships — especially those involving athletes — have become viral entertainment, with fan speculation often blurring the line between gossip and defamation.

While the DNA test revelation may have closed one chapter of this story, the emotional damage seems far from over. “It’s crazy that I had to prove something like this just to get peace,” the woman said before logging off. “People forget there are real lives behind their rumors.”

As of now, both Murray and Haney have stayed silent, but the incident has sparked wider discussions about privacy, public scrutiny, and how quickly misinformation can destroy reputations in the social media era.
