"Say Things for Attention, Do Not Be Deceived": Jaden Ivey's Wife Caitlyn Ivey Accuses Ex-Bulls Star of Lying After Getting Bombarded with Hate

Caitlyn Ivey said the couple had been communicating and shared abusive messages she received after Jaden’s livestream comments.

  • On Tuesday, March 31, the Chicago Bulls waived guard Jaden Ivey, citing "conduct detrimental to the team" after he criticized the NBA's support of Pride Month during a livestream.
  • During a separate livestream on Tuesday, Ivey claimed his wife, Caitlyn Newton, had stopped communicating with him following his release from the team.
  • Newton refuted the allegations on Wednesday, April 1, via Instagram Story, stating, "I have never once abandoned that man through all the trials."
  • On the Pinpoint Podcast, Ivey discussed his mental health struggles, admitting, "I've almost committed suicide multiple times" while recovering from injuries throughout his young career.
