The Shade Room recently shared a video of NBA player Jalen Green and his partner, reality star Draya Michele, who were spotted in a heated dispute. According to the outlet, the incident happened after the pair had left a New York Fashion Week party. In the video, Green can be overheard referring to Michele as a “b*tch,” before later screaming at the top of his lungs that he “hates her.”
Michele can be seen running toward and attempting to lunge at Green several times before being stopped by someone from the pair’s crew. Another person was also spotted trying to hold the six-foot-four Phoenix Suns shooting guard back from the former Basketball Wives star. Being that there is no footage of what happened prior, it’s unclear what prompted the heated situation. The Shade Room reports the confrontation between the two would continue for several minutes as the group walked through the streets of New York.
The pair went public with their relationship in 2023, despite heavy criticism for their 17-year age gap; Green, who was 23 at the time, and Michele, 40. A year later, in May, the two welcomed a daughter, Lyght. My daughter was safely brought into this world, and I’m forever grateful for the new memories we all get to experience moving forward. [Silver heart emoji] Love + Light everyone,” she wrote in an Instagram post around that time.
Back in July, Draya clapped back at one critica TikToker named Boujeebrownskin, who stated that Green and she have more of a “mother/son” dynamic than a romantic one. The social media personality was reacting to an appearance the two made on Whistle’s “Home Team” relationship quiz.
Michele caught wind of the video and shared her sentiments: “One more thing … this is AGEIST !! No different from being homophobic — you can’t be woke about one thing, babe, and not the other. Discrimination is discrimination. Imagine if somebody told you couldn’t love who you wanted to because they felt like it was ‘wrong.’”
