Over the weekend, Steph Curry was caught in a heated confrontation with French photographers, just as his wife, Ayesha Curry, faced a tense situation with French police. The incident involving Curry, shared by @Vendett_Dailly, shows the basketball star leaving the L’Avenue venue with his family when he reacted strongly to the intrusive photographers. “Watch out!” Curry, 36, shouted. “Get that out of my momma face!” A Team USA representative also intervened, telling the crowd to “Make a hole!” to allow Curry and his party to move through.

This incident follows another video featuring Ayesha Curry, Curry’s mother Sonya, and Warriors teammate Draymond Green. Posted by The Hollywood Fix on YouTube, the footage shows the group struggling to access their car after Team USA’s gold medal win on Saturday. Sonya was heard telling French police, “They won’t let the driver come here, and they won’t let us go back over there,” while Ayesha, holding their baby Caius and accompanied by their 6-year-old son Canon, looked distressed.

The video also revealed that access was restricted due to a visit from “the president [Emmanuel Macron],” with streets closed until his convoy passed. Ayesha was seen visibly upset during the incident. Additionally, Green claimed that authorities had hit the baby, stating, “So even after you hit the baby in the head, there’s still nothing y’all can do to get them out of here?” The details of this alleged incident, including when it occurred and which officer was involved, remain unclear. Curry’s family and Green were in Paris to celebrate Team USA’s 98-87 victory over France at Bercy Arena.
