Entertainment Movies

Actress Haley Baylee is speaking out after her ex-husband, former NFL player Matt Kalil, filed a lawsuit alleging she made “damaging personal remarks” about him.

In an exclusive statement to Page Six on Wednesday, Baylee, 33, said she was “shocked and incredibly hurt” by the legal action. She insisted that her comments had been taken out of context. “The truth is in the original livestream — which is still live on Marlon’s YouTube account,” Baylee explained. “I speak highly of [Kalil] in multiple ways throughout that conversation.”

Baylee described the lawsuit as “a harrowing and emotionally draining experience” and expressed heartbreak that her family and Kalil’s are now caught up in the legal dispute. She also highlighted six timestamps from her November 2025 interview in which she praised Kalil, calling him a “really good guy” and “the greatest guy in the world.”

Kalil, 36, filed the lawsuit on Wednesday, claiming Baylee’s remarks caused “unwanted attention and invasive commentary from the public.” Court documents indicate he also alleges that the comments negatively impacted his wife, Keilani Asmus, who received “disturbing” messages online. Kalil is seeking $75,000 in damages.

As the legal battle unfolds, fans are watching closely, while Baylee maintains that her statements were misrepresented and urges the public to review the original livestream for context.
