"Crucify a woman for saying she had her own dreams": Anthony Edwards’ ex launches fierce defence of Ayesha Curry over honest marriage confession

Anthony Edwards’ ex-girlfriend, Ayesha Howard, has chimed in on the recent comments made by Stephen Curry’s wife, Ayesha Curry. During an interview on “Call Her Daddy” in August, Curry joined host Alex Cooper and discussed several topics, even shedding light on her personal life.

The host asked Curry if she always imagined being a wife and mother growing up. She answered, saying that she didn’t want to get married or have kids. Her reply is going viral on social media as fans continue to criticize her.

On Sunday, Instagram account @theneighborhoodtalk shared a TikTok video of an influencer’s reaction to Curry’s comments. The influencer suggested that she “can’t appreciate what she has.”

This prompted Anthony Edwards’ ex, Ayesha Howard, to come to Curry's defense. She wrote a lengthy message in the post's comments section, criticizing Ayesha's haters.

“All Ayesha Curry said was she had her own dreams, goals, and interests like most of us do. But once she became a wife and mom, her path shifted,” she said. “Y'all love asking, 'what do you bring to the table,' but crucify a woman for saying she had her own dreams before a table was set. DO BETTER PEOPLE!”
