Le’Veon Bell Has 7 Children With 6 Different Women and Can’t Remember All of His Kids’ Names

Former NFL running back Le’Veon Bell was arrested in Ohio for allegedly failing to pay child support.

The three-time Pro Bowler was taken into custody on July 19 by Jackson Township police at the Belden Village Mall following a meet-and-greet event. This arrest came after an outstanding warrant from Michigan was issued regarding unpaid child support. Bell reportedly owes more than $50,000 in child support.

This case is regarding one child, but Bell has seven children in all by six different women and can’t remember the names of all his kids.

During an appearance on Respectfully: The Justin LaBoy Show in late April, the host asked the ex-Pittsburgh Steeler to name all his kids, and that didn’t go so well. Commenters online then dragged Bell over it.

“Justin Laboy was shocked after learning Le’Veon Bell has 6 baby mamas in just 7 years. Justin was also in tears after he asked Le’Veon give him all the 7 names of his kids and he couldn’t remember all their names,” one person wrote.

Another added, “Couldn’t remember all the names in real time and Justin just had to sit there and process that.”

A third person fumed, “Something is seriously wrong with these fools … if I have 6 bm I will be hiding that s***, s*** ain’t something to be proud of. Your decision making is insane.”

Bell retired from the league in 2021 following an eight-year career with the Steelers, the New York Jets, the Kansas City Chiefs, the Baltimore Ravens, and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. His lawyer, Thomas Shaffer, told TMZ that the child support payments are based on his NFL salary, which he hasn’t earned in years.
