Disgraced NFL star Greg Hardy slams 'rumors' after shocking arrest for allegedly ᴀssaulting family member

Disgraced former NFL star and UFC fighter Greg Hardy is calling for privacy after his latest domestic violence arrest in Texas.

On Tuesday, the 36-year-old posted video of himself at a trampoline park with a woman and two young children, presumed to be Hardy’s partner, son and daughter. Hardy is seen kissing the woman in the video while the smiling children are playing on the trampolines.

‘Please stop spreading what these chaos machines post, they don’t know any facts then fuel the fire that effects (sic) my kids and my wife,’ he wrote. ‘Things get emotional but has never and will never be what you clowns are trying to spread. I ask with all my heart please, My family and I are all perfectly fine.’

Hardy ended the post: ‘Please stop spreading lies and rumors and give our family the time and space to work through it all in private.’

Although he refers to her as his ‘wife,’ it’s unclear if the woman is actually married to Hardy. An incident report provided to Daily Mail by the Richardson (Texas) Police Department described Hardy as the woman’s ‘boyfriend.’ 

According to that report, Hardy put his hands on his partner after she accused him of infidelity. The one-time Dallas Cowboys defensive end is accused of pushing the woman and putting his hands around her neck. The woman said she did not lose consciousness. 

Police also reported scratches and redness on her body they believed to be ‘consistent with a physical altercation,’ according to police.

Hardy admitted to police he was involved in a dispute with his partner, but claimed he simply moved her out of his way.

He was arrested on a charge of ‘ᴀssault causing bodily injury family member.’

Hardy was previously arrested on domestic violence allegations in May of 2014 when he was accused of ᴀssaulting his then-girlfriend in Charlotte during his time with the Carolina Panthers.

As the woman told Charlotte Mecklenburg Police, Hardy threw her down on a sofa that was covered in ‘ᴀssault rifles and/or sH๏τguns.’

Hardy was found guilty of ᴀssault and communicating threats. He sentenced him to 18 months’ probation, but appealed the decision, requesting a jury trial. When the accuser did not show in court, prosecutors dropped the charges. The prosecutors later claimed to have received ‘reliable information’ the two sides reached a settlement.

Hardy was ultimately suspended 10 games, but that ban was then reduced to four games.

He went on to sign with the Cowboys before embarking on a combat career in 2016. In total he has 13 MMA fights and four boxing bouts, although he’s failed to distinguish himself in either arena.
