Are Nacua and Aiono together?
Earlier this month, Aiono opened up on Instagram about going through “my darkest hour” amid breakup rumors. In her June paternity filing, she requested joint legal custody but sought full physical custody for herself, granting Nacua only visitation rights, according to TMZ.
In his response to the petition, the Rams WR acknowledged being the child's parent and requested genetic testing to confirm paternity. It is unclear if the two are still together.
