Ayesha Curry and Steph Curry’s mother, Sonya Curry, were involved in a tense encounter with French police after the U.S. men’s basketball team won gold at the 2024 Paris Olympics.
In a video posted to X by The Hollywood Fix, Ayesha, 35, appears to wipe away tears while attempting to return to her car on Saturday, August 10. The altercation seems to have occurred right after her husband’s gold medal win against France.

With her 3-month-old son, Caius Chai, strapped to her chest and holding her 6-year-old son, Canon Jack, by the hand, Ayesha is seen speaking with police officers for approximately three minutes, alongside Sonya and Draymond Green, Steph’s Golden State Warriors teammate.
While it’s unclear what exactly transpired during the confrontation, Sonya can be heard yelling that someone “touched the baby” amid the chaos. Green echoes her concern, as he is also heard in the video asking the police, “So even after him hitting the baby in the head, there’s still nothing y’all can do to get them out of here?”
It’s unclear what Green is referring to, as no physical altercation is captured in the video.
