Stephen Curry’s wife, Ayesha Curry, broke down in tears after Paris police stopped her from going to her car with her four-month-old as they cleared the road for President Emmanuel Macron’s motorcade.
Ayesha, carrying her infant son Caius on her chest and holding her six-year-old’s hand, spent three minutes trying to get back to her vehicle after the men’s basketball final on Saturday.
But police refused to let the family cross the road to a waiting vehicle or let their driver come pick them up, despite pleas from Ayesha’s mother-in-law onya who was heard yelling that someone had ‘touched the baby’.
A good Samaritan stepped in, acting as translator amid the chaos, informing the family that ‘the president’ was coming and ‘nobody’s allowed to cross the street right now until he’s passed’, video published online by Hollywood Fix revealed.
The tense encounter came as the Currys and Steph’s teammate, Draymond Green, were leaving the stadium after Team USA’s 98-87 Olympic win over host France.Golden State Warrior
Steph, who dominated during the final with a 24-point tirade, was labelled ‘the devil’ by French commentators during the match broadcast.
