Hallie Aiono drops ‘6 Months' baby bump photo after slapping Puka Nacua with court papers
Just weeks ago, Puka Nacua and Hallie Aiono looked like the NFL's next power couple. After a heartfelt pregnancy announcement and gender reveal, fans expected nothing but joy ahead.
But the fairytale has taken a messy turn. Now, Hallie's baby bump update—captioned '6 months'—comes in the shadow of a paternity suit and custody demands filed against the Rams wide receiver.
A picture-perfect NFL romance takes a legal turn in Puka Nacua-Hallie Aiono's custody battle
Puka Nacua was supposed to be enjoying his hard-earned offseason after a stellar 2024 NFL season. The Los Angeles Rams wide receiver tallied 79 receptions for 990 yards despite missing five games. But instead of celebrating future plans, Nacua is now embroiled in a legal and personal storm with his ex-girlfriend, Hallie Aiono.
The drama escalated after Hallie filed court documents seeking to legally establish Nacua's paternity, full physical custody of their unborn son, and financial support for pregnancy-related expenses. The legal move came just weeks after the couple's heartfelt Mother's Day pregnancy reveal and gender announcement. Fans had been charmed by their relationship—until it came crashing down.
Adding more fuel to the fire, Hallie recently posted an Instagram story showing her baby bump with the caption '6 months,' confirming the timeline and the ongoing pregnancy.

While the post could've been an innocent update, the context surrounding it makes it impossible to ignore. The couple had been in the spotlight for months, and now, the silence from both sides is only intensifying speculation.

Puka, who once said on the Join the Lobby podcast that he hoped to retire at 30 and raise a 'starting five' of sons, now faces a future far different from the one he imagined. His dream of building a close-knit family, inspired by his own upbringing, appears to be slipping away amid public legal battles and rumors of betrayal.

While neither Puka nor Hallie has publicly commented since the filing, the situation has drawn reactions from fans and NFL personalities alike. ESPN analyst Ryan Clark remarked on how quickly the seemingly perfect relationship fell apart, noting how 'every NFL page was posting them' just months ago.

IND vs ENG 3rd Test: Six minutes of drama! Why a fired-up Shubman Gill lost his cool at Lord's
Zak Crawley and Shubman Gill in London: A hundred, two gritty half-centuries, an excellent run-out and a fiery spell with the ball was not enough as it was six minutes of unadulterated drama in the dying stages of Day 3 which brought the Lord's to life. A fired-up India captain Shubman Gill was in England opener Zak Crawley 's face and had almost every Indian player converging towards the pitch during that moment. The umpires intervened to cool things down but the damage had been done. Gill had enough of the theatrics and the call for the physio was the moment he exploded. After a round of applause, he charged towards Crawley and did an impact player signal, and also fired some not so pleasant statements with aggressive hand gestures. Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. SUBSCRIBE NOW! The stump mic was alert enough to pick up the four words which went viral on social media. "Show some fu*g b**s," yelled Gill as the right-hander did all he could to deny India an over from the pavilion end. He succeeded and Jasprit Bumrah , equally annoyed, stood on top of his run-up for the final delivery of the day's play. He bowled an absolute peach but Crawley survived. The opener immediately turned back and was brisk walking to the dressing room as the umpires flipped the bails to signal end of day's play. A good old fashioned Day 3 got a spicy finish and has now set-up the remaining two days, and the series very nicely. The series hasn't had any dramatic moment yet and the episode on the third day could well fire up proceedings, and lend some flavor and colour to action. Both camps were asked about the final over and KL Rahul understood why Crawley was doing what he did, and also explained why Gill was so fired in those few minutes. Poll Do you believe this incident will ignite more drama in the remaining matches? Definitely Maybe Unlikely "I am an opener so I can understand what he was doing but Shubman Gill was fired up because we wanted to bowl two overs in the six minutes before stumps. Lot of theatrics and everyone was fired up," said Rahul at post-day presser. From the hosts camp, Tim Southee, part of the coaching set-up, felt this is part and parcel of the game, and reiterated both sides have played in the right spirit in the series so far.

NHL teams commit to decentralized draft format through 2026 despite mixed reactions
NHL votes to stick with decentralized draft model in 2026 (Getty Images) The NHL has reportedly decided to stick with its decentralized draft model for the 2026 season. The decision was made after two-thirds of the league's clubs voted in favor of continuing this new format, as confirmed by multiple sources, including Sportsnet and The Athletic's Pierre LeBrun. 2026 NHL Draft won't return to normal as teams back another year of the decentralized model This move marks a departure from the centralized draft approach that had long been a unique NHL hallmark. In the traditional setup, team executives, coaches, and scouts gathered together on the arena floor, creating a dynamic environment that was both TV-friendly and filled with real-time decision-making energy. However, those inside the league had grown weary of that format, citing issues around privacy, logistical challenges, and the compressed timeline between the draft and the start of free agency. — DarrenDreger (@DarrenDreger) The 2025 NHL Draft, held at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles, marked the league's first deliberate shift to decentralization, excluding the COVID-era virtual drafts. Teams remained in their respective home markets, while a representative—be it an alumni, current player, or celebrity—announced their selections on-site. A total of 93 prospects were in attendance, receiving their jerseys from Commissioner Gary Bettman and speaking with club officials via virtual interviews. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like One plan. Total peace of mind. ICICI Pru Life Insurance Plan Get Quote Undo While fans were treated to a TV broadcast with glitzy production and intriguing storylines, the execution wasn't flawless. The first round extended over four hours, and many viewers described the show as clunky and at times awkward, especially during the 'Draft House' segments where prospects communicated virtually with their new teams—sometimes through shaky connections. Despite the hiccups, deputy commissioner Bill Daly assured that production issues can be easily resolved before the next draft. Ratings for the 2025 event were solid, and by day two, the process felt smoother. That provided a silver lining for league officials aiming to refine the format. More importantly, the feedback from players themselves was largely positive. 'At the end of the day, all of the prospects were there,' said Flyers' second-round pick Shane Vansaghi. 'We were all getting picked, we were all walking up there and putting on our jerseys and we were all getting drafted into the NHL. That's the point of the draft in my opinion.' While some fans and critics lament the absence of a centralized, marquee event like the NFL's draft combine or the NBA Summer League, it appears the NHL is prioritizing operational efficiency and internal comfort. The decentralized model may lack spectacle, but for now, it's here to stay—perhaps signaling a permanent evolution in how hockey's future stars enter the league.

‘Metro... In Dino' Box Office collection day 9: Sara Ali Khan, Aditya Roy Kapur, Pankaj Tripathi's film sees BIG jump on second Saturday; earns over Rs 33 crore
Anurag Basu's new film 'Metro... In Dino' is taking moviegoers back into the lanes of love, heartbreak and hope, all set in the middle of a busy city. Released on 4th July, this film brings together a big bunch of actors we all know and love. From Sara Ali Khan and Aditya Roy Kapur to Neena Gupta, Pankaj Tripathi , Konkona Sen Sharma , Ali Fazal, Anupam Kher and Fatima Sana Shaikh. Many have called it a sort of spiritual sequel to Basu's popular 2007 film 'Life... In A Metro'. This time, too, he gives us a slice-of-life story that looks at different people and their tangled relationships. The film's box office run started off calm but picked up pace. On day 9, the film's collection saw a big jump. A decent start at the box office According to Sacnilk, 'Metro... Dino' got off to a decent start in cinemas. In its first seven days, the film collected an estimated Rs 26.85 crore in India. On its opening Friday, it made Rs 3.5 crore. Saturday brought in better numbers with Rs 6 crore, and by Sunday, it reached its first peak of Rs 7.25 crore. As the weekdays rolled in, the film's earnings dipped a little, which is common for most films. Monday saw Rs 2.5 crore, Tuesday grew slightly to Rs 3 crore, followed by Rs 2.35 crore on Wednesday and Rs 2.25 crore on Thursday. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Đây có thể là thời điểm tốt nhất để giao dịch vàng trong 5 năm qua IC Markets Tìm hiểu thêm Undo By the end of its first week, the film was close to Rs 27 crore. Big Saturday boost on day 9 Day 8, which was a Friday again, showed early estimates of Rs 2.25 crore. But on day 9, according to early estimates by Sacnilk, the film saw a surge in collection and minted around Rs 4.65 crore on Saturday. This took its total to an impressive Rs 33.85 crore. This jump on the second Saturday has come as a pleasant surprise and shows that audiences are warming up to the film more and more. Day 9 occupancy The occupancy in theatres on Saturday, 12th July, also showed how many people stepped out to watch the film. Overall, 'Metro... In Dino' had a 44.84% Hindi occupancy that day. The morning shows had around 18.63% seats filled. This went up sharply in the afternoon shows to 47.86%. By evening, it was even better at 56.28%, and night shows did the best with 56.59% occupancy. 'Metro... In Dino' review 'The Times of India' gave the film a fair review, pointing out both the good and the not-so-good bits. The review read, "Despite being largely pleasant, some tracks don't quite add up, feel uneven and don't know where to end. After an engaging build up, the second half feels a tad stretched. You also wish the story scratched the surface a little more, especially for Konkona-Neena Gupta track, where the actors have the potential and gravitas to dig deeper. " However, the review also praised the film for giving Bollywood something it's been missing lately. It said, "There has been a scarcity of love stories in Bollywood and Metro In Dino, elevated by some fine performances, fills that gap perfectly. It is a breezy, intimate watch tailor-made for a rainy day."
