As one of the greatest "uncrowned kings" in NBA history, Carl Malone left fans with the impression that his strong muscles and discolored iron elbows, as well as his decades of diligence, finally made him the second overall scorer in NBA history. On the sidelines, Malone had embraced the beauty, but his entanglement with several children born out of wedlock was more talked about.
On Christmas Eve, December 24, 1990, Malone married Kay Kinsey, a former 1988 Idaho pageant winner of a mix of Americans and Filipinos. Subsequently, the Marlons had a total of 4 children, three daughters (kadee, kylee, and karlee), and one son (Carl Jr., often referred to as "k.j."). ）。 Later, Carl was a member of the Louisiana LSU Varsity football team and was invited to the NFL joint trial in 2018.
In 1998, a tabloid, The Globe, broke the news that Malone had three illegitimate children, two of whom had been born to Bernita Ford, a woman of Marlon's hometown, Summerfield, Louisiana, and about the same age as Malone. The mother of the other child is Gloria Bell. It is worth mentioning that Gloria was only 13 years old when she and Malone's son, Demetress Bell, were underage.
Later, It is said that Marlon and the Ford sisters met, which was the first time they met their biological father after the Ford sisters were born. But Malone was reluctant to meet with Bale, and his lawyer stated that he could not be sure whether Bale was Malone's biological son. But after a paternity test, it was determined that 99% of Bale's son was likely to be Malone's own son, and the court ordered Malone to pay Bell $125 a week, but Malone was not satisfied.
In the fall of 1998, Malone officially recognized the Ford sisters as his daughter, and Kay Kinsey opened his arms and graciously declared the Ford sisters to be members of the Malone family. Of the two sisters, Cheryl Ford is the only "son of Marlon's children" to inherit the father's business. She was selected by the WNBA's Detroit Shock as a flower hunt in 2003, and later won the rookie king, 4 times selected for the WNBA All-Star and won the All-Star Game MVP in 2007, 2 times selected for the WNBA Best Second Team, 3 times won the WNBA championship, and 2 times won the WNBA Rebounding King.
Bell actually inherited Malone's athletic genes. He was drafted in the 2008 NFL Draft, playing for Buffalo Beale, Philadelphia Hawks and Dallas Cowboys. According to Bell, when he first met With Malone, he also said it was "too late" for the two of them to re-establish the father-son relationship. But in 2014, Malone finally accepted Bale, and by 2018 the two sides had begun to communicate frequently.
In 2018, Malone looked back and self-examined: "I didn't handle this matter well, I made a mistake." The old man of time took everything away, which is irretrievable. ”
Despite his mistakes, it is fortunate that Marlon still has a sage by his side, Kai Kinsey, who finally allows the Malone family to live a happy and harmonious life. (Supine Braces/Hairy)
