"Is this outrage like forever?": Jalen Green's baby mama Draya Michele poses rhetoric questions to fans amid scrutiny over new-born post
Draya Michele, Jalen Green's girlfriend and baby mama, is showing that she's gotten tired of all the comments made about her relationship with the Houston Rockets young star. Michele and Green were first spotted together in August 2023, which sparked plenty of negative reactions from fans. Things have evolved for the couple, who already welcomed their first baby together.
The model shared a series of pictures with the baby on Instagram yesterday and captioned it:
"I had a baby yall. Earth is wild."
After Instagram account @theshaderoom shared Michele's photos, the model chose to address fans who have been criticizing her for nearly a year. Michele has faced considerable negativity on social media, and in response, she used rhetorical questions to push back against her critics.
Many fans have disapproved of her relationship due to the age gap—Michele is 39, while Green is 22. The age difference was noticeable even when they were first seen together a year ago, prompting fans to voice their opinions.

"I don't know what people's problem's is. Two adults being in love, I don't know why that would rub people the wrong way. It's kind of weird. Love is love at the end of the day" she continued.
Draya Michele celebrated this year's Mother's Day in a big way, revealing that her father passed away three years ago, noting the big change she lived this year.
"In 2021 on Mother’s Day, my dad passed away. Since then, it’s been extremely hard to celebrate that day without remembering the earth shattering phone call I received that morning. Well, this Mother’s Day was different. My daughter was safely brought into this world and I’m forever grateful for the new memories we all get to experience moving forward. 🩶 Love + Light everyone," she wrote on Instagram.
The young guard and the model appear to be on good terms now, and they're doing everything to block the external noise.
