Steven Johnson may be the pivot for Stephen Curry's parents' divorce
Stephen Curry's mother, Sonya, has been accused of cheating by her estranged husband and former NBA player Dell Curry. According to court documents, Sonya has been accused of secretly dating Steven Johnson.
Dell claims that Sonya started her affair with Johnson during their marriage and before their separation and that she lied to him every time he asked her about an affair. He also claims that Sonya is currently living with Johnson in Tennessee and shouldn’t receive any alimony.
Sonya confirmed that she’s in a relationship with Johnson but denies cheating on Dell during their marriage. She stated that the relationship started months after they separated in March 2020. She added that she’s not living with Johnson in Tennessee, but she's living on her own now because Dell won’t allow her to enter their house.
Dell and Sonya got married in 1988 and became famous recently due to their appearances together at NBA games in the stands and courtside to support their sons, Stephen and Seth Curry. Stephen plays for the Golden State Warriors and is one of the best players in the league, while Seth is currently on the Philadelphia 76ers' roster and is one of the team's starting guards.
