Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase is one of the most promising young talents in the NFL. He was selected fifth overall by the Bengals in the 2021 NFL Draft, and he has already broken several rookie records for receiving yards. He was also named the NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year and a second-team All-Pro after helping his team reach Super Bowl LVI.
However, Chase’s stellar performance on the field has been overshadowed by a personal issue off the field. He is currently seeking court-ordered protection from a woman named Ambar Hunter, who he claims is harassing him and his mother after a one-night stand.
According to court documents obtained by TMZ, Chase claims that he met Hunter in July 2021, and they had a brief sexual encounter. He says that he decided to end their relationship after that night, but Hunter did not take it well. She allegedly reacted by making threats and acting in a disturbing manner.
Chase alleges that Hunter has engaged in a campaign of deliberate and persistent harassment intended to harm his reputation, brand, and business relationships. He says that Hunter uses social media as her main means of harassment, spreading rumors about him there and accusing him of being a bad father in an effort to rally her 18,000 followers against him and his mother.
One of the main allegations that Hunter has made against Chase is that they have a child together. She claims that she gave birth to their son in April 2022, and she has posted photos of the baby on her Instagram account.
However, Chase denies that he is the father of Hunter’s child. He says that she is using photos of another person’s child to make it seem like they are parents to the same child. He also says that she has refused to submit to a DNA test to determine any possible paternity.
Chase also claims that Hunter is making up stories about being a victim of domestic abuse. He says that no law enforcement agency has found her to be credible and that he has never harmed her in any way.
Chase filed for a temporary restraining order against Hunter on August 15, 2023, asking the judge to order her to stop contacting him and his mother, and to stop posting false statements about him on social media.
He says that Hunter’s harassment has caused him emotional distress, anxiety, and fear for his safety and the safety of his family. He also says that her actions have negatively impacted his NFL career and his corporate sponsorships.
He is seeking an injunction to prevent Hunter from continuing her harassment scheme, as well as damages for defamation, invasion of privacy, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and tortious interference with contractual relations.
Not much is known about Ambar Hunter’s background or personal life. She appears to be an Instagram model and influencer, who posts photos of herself in various outfits and locations. She has over 18,000 followers on her account, where she goes by the username @ambarhunter.
She has not publicly commented on the legal dispute with Chase, except for posting a cryptic message on her Instagram story on August 16, 2023, saying “God knows my truth.”
