Jania Said, “Play With Somebody Else”
The girls have been whispering, speculating, and doing the most in the comments — but Jania Meshell said she’s done playing with y’all! After nonstop rumors about who fathered her daughter Icelynn, sis finally put the speculation to rest by dropping the receipts: a paternity test confirming that her most recent ex, NBA player Dejounte Murray, is indeed the father — not boxer Devin Haney, as many incorrectly assumed.
If you’ve been keeping up, you know Jania previously addressed the rumors and clarified that Devin was not the father. However, she and Dejounte called it quits recently, and the internet wasted no time bringing back the old Devin Haney talk. But, with the DNA results now public, Jania’s making it clear: there’s no more room for confusion. Period.
