The rumors started flying over the weekend when NFL blogger Dov Kleiman took to X (formerly Twitter) and posted a report that Hopkins was pregnant with Davis’ child.
“Congrats! 26-year-old Hayden Hopkins, girlfriend of #Raiders owner Mark Davis (70), is pregnant. Happy for the power couple,” the original post stated (Davis is notably 69 years old).
Hopkins and Davis were pictured sitting next to each other at the Raiders against Los Angeles Charges game in Dec. 2022. The picture still remains in Hopkins’ 2022 Instagram highlights.
Not long after gossip was making headlines, Hopkins took to X to dismiss the situation. “Reports of Mark Davis being the father of my child are wildly untrue,” she declared. “I was pictured sitting next to him at a game in 2022 and have endured false rumors of a romantic relationship since. I was just a guest sitting in the owner’s box with other friends.”
Hayden Hopkins then slammed the media for promoting the rumors. “These continued media stories are negatively affecting what should be my happiest days. Joey and I are excited to welcome our baby in the fall xx.”
Although she mentioned “Joey” in her tweet, Hayden Hopkins didn’t reveal him to be Gallo. Kleiman removed the post, but hasn’t publicly apologized for spreading the false information.
TMZ Sports has since learned and confirmed that Hopkins and Gallo are expecting the child together. Gallo is currently an outfielder, third baseman, and first baseman for the Washington Nationals.
Pat McAfee Walks Back His Remarks About Hayden Hopkins During ‘WWE Raw’
Without getting full confirmation that the gossip about Hayden Hopkins was factual, Pat McAfee decided to comment on the situation during his appearance on WWE Raw on Monday.
Speaking about the different sizes between Braun Strowman and JD McDonagh, McAfee decided to use the “news” about Davis and Hopkins for his fight analogy.
“A lot of people look at this size difference and think J.D. has no chance,” he said. “Mark Davis is 70 years old and is expecting a child with a 26-year-old. Anything is possible in this modern world!”
The former NFL player walked back his remark the next day by apologizing to Hayden Hopkins. “I apologize for perpetuating a lie,” he admitted. “I understand how happy you guys should be at this moment. It would suck to have a 70-year-old billionaire kind of looming over the entire — so I would like to apologize to Hayden and let the world know, hey, we’ve gotta get these things right.”
Hopkins hasn’t publicly addressed McAfee’s apology.
