Model Who 'Divorced NFL Star Over Penis Size' Asks Judge to Throw Out Lawsuit
Haley Kalil has demanded a judge throw out her ex-husband's lawsuit following her comments over the size of his penis.
Former NFL star Matt Kalil, who played for the Minnesota Vikings, Carolina Panthers and Houston Texans, married Haley in a Hawaii ceremony in 2015 before renewing their vows the following year.
They were together for seven years until their separation in 2022 when the model and influencer filed for divorce, citing 'irreconcilable differences', with Kalil later marrying Keilani Asmus in 2024.
Haley discussed private - quite literally - details of her relationship with Kalil, revealing the main reason behind their split - stating that his penis size was a key factor why their marriage came to an end.

She indicted that the 36-year-old's penis was so large, it made sex particularly difficult and that it was the 'biggest factor' in their divorce.
After her remark emerged online, their relationship attracted plenty of attention, forcing Haley to address her comments.
"I care deeply about respecting his privacy and the integrity of what we shared together," she said.
"During our livestream, we talked about so much more than what’s being highlighted - the love in our marriage, the growth we experienced, the depth of our connection.
"It’s unfortunate that only one fragment is being amplified, because it doesn’t capture the full story of how meaningful things were to me. I hope our hour-and-a-half-long conversation reflects more than a funny soundbite."
Haley's comments upset Kalil, who subsequently launched a lawsuit, seeking $75,000. He claimed she made 'degrading and deeply personal comments', which had resulted in 'unwanted attention and invasive commentary from the public'.
She was left 'shocked and incredibly hurt' after she was faced with a lawsuit.
Now, the 33-year-old has asked a judge for the lawsuit to be dismissed, arguing that she cannot be held civilly liable for sharing her own life experiences.
"Plaintiff’s complaint seeks to hold a woman in the public eye civilly liable for providing a truthful, autobiographical account of sexual trauma she suffered and described as having led to the end of a highly publicized celebrity marriage with an NFL football star," the court papers, which have been obtained by Page Six, read.
Attorneys for Kalil have rejected her defence, with Ryan Saba saying that Haley 'wantonly disclosed private and intimate details' for the purpose of 'profiting'.
A legal representative for Kalil said: "Haley Kalil’s motion to dismiss does not dispute the fact that she wantonly disclosed private and intimate details about Matt Kalil that resulted in widespread ridicule and unwanted attention.
"The motion completely misses the point that a spouse does not have a right to expose private and confidential marital and sexual details for the purpose of profiting.
"We expect that the motion will be completely denied."
