Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill’s name has been in the headlines recently after he was pulled over by police and detained for allegedly speeding following the team’s first game of the NFL season.

“They said I was speeding, reckless driving or whatever,” Hill said per USA Today. “I wasn’t raised like that to name drop. If you said I did something, write me a ticket and do whatever you have to do. But don’t be disrespectful.”

Bodycam footage of the incident that took place on Sept. 8 was released days later and officer Danny Torres was placed on administrative duties.

But Hill has made the news for other reasons over the last few months and that has to do with how many children and baby mamas he has. Some media outlets reported that he has 10 children. However, Hill never confirmed that and was said to be joking when that number came up. There have also been reports that many of the athlete’s kids were born in the same year. That happens to be true.

Here’s more on that and who the mothers are of his seven children.

Hill has one child on the way with his wife Keeta Vaccaro

The rumors about Hill giving Nick Cannon some competition and fathering at least 10 children started swirling after the wideout did an interview on the Million Dollaz Worth of Game podcast. The host jokingly said that Hill is a family man with 10 kids. The Dolphins star didn’t respond and instead just lowered his head. However, it was thought to be a joke as everyone else present broke out into laughter.

And another time Hill made it a point not to reveal the number of children he has saying: “It don’t matter how many kids I have, a lot of people won’t be able to say ‘Tyreek don’t take care of his kids though.’”

In May, he and his wife, Keeta Vaccaro, announced that they are expecting their first child together. That will be baby No. 7 for Hill.

He has 3 other children with his ex-fiancee Crystal Espinal

The football player has three children with his ex-fiancee Crystal Espinal as well. Their eldest son, Zev, was born in 2015, followed by twins, Nakeem and Nyla, in 2019.

Hill’s off-the-field drama with Espinal made the news on a number of occasions as their relationship was marred by domestic violence allegations. They eventually split but continue to co-parent with Hill paying around $14,000 a month in child support.

The NFL star also has 1 child with Brittany Lackner

The NFL player also shares a child with Brittany Lackner, who filed a paternity suit to prove just that after she gave birth to Soul Corazon Hill in February 2023 while Hill was engaged to Vaccaro.

Lackner is an Instagram model and travel influencer.

Hill fathered another son with Camille Valmon

In addition, Hill shares a son with Camille Valmon who is a model and co-founder of a healthcare app.

Their little boy is named Tyreek D’Shaun Hill Jr., after his dad. He was born in March 2023 shortly after Lackner had her baby.

The wide receiver has a daughter with Kimberly Baker

Finally, Hill fathered another daughter, Trae Love Hill, with Kimberly Baker.

Like Lackner, Baker filed a paternity suit against Hill and DNA evidence proved he was the father. Trae was born in May 2023.
