Cam Newton Comes Clean on Fathering Child Outside Of Previous Relationship

Cam Newton is coming clean.

The NFL Free Agent Quarterback dated Kia Proctor, the mother of four of his seven children, but at the time they were still together, he welcomed another child. Cam says talking about it is “embarrassing.” Newton addressed the gossip and confirmed that he did, indeed, rip apart his family due to his infidelity with a model named La Reina Shaw.

During his visit to The Pivot Podcast, Channing Crowder told Newton that the man he is today isn’t the same person from the 2015ish era.

Newton admitted:

“Honestly, it was a situation, a personal situation for me.”

“My longtime girlfriend at the time [Kia Proctor], you know, we had a family,” Newton continued. “And I made a mistake, I hurt her, and I jeopardized our family at that time and I had a child outside of our relationship. And, coming from where I come from, being the person who I am, nobody would ever speak on it because we got a lot of people who are in high powers still make humanistic mistakes, and I can honestly say I made a humanistic mistake.”

“When Ceaser Lorenzo Newton was born, I then stopped caring because I can only be the best person that I can be,” he added. “And painting this picture of a person that, ‘Aw man, I gotta act this type of way, aw man, I gotta be this type of person.’ I got so many kids now that, if I’m not Superman to them, I’ll be damned if I allow the world to call me Superman.”

“It’s just really putting certain things into perspective and, you know, it was embarrassing for me. And honestly, it is embarrassing to talk about but everybody don’t really wanna talk about real situations in life, and that molded me.”

Newton suggested that there are several others who have found themselves in his position, but he said:

“I would never have a hidden child.”

Newton and Proctor reportedly split due to the affair. They share four children together and she was reportedly pregnant when she found out about the other woman.
