Hayden Hopkins, 26, says Raiders owner, 69, is NOT the dad of her baby

• Hayden Hopkins has denied rumors Raiders owner Mark Davis is her baby’s dad
• Hopkins was seen sitting next to Davis at an NFL game in December 2022
• She said they were just friends yet rumors have continued to persist 

Cirque du Soleil dancer Hayden Hopkins has slammed rumors that Las Vegas Raiders owner Mark Davis is the father of her unborn child.

Hopkins, 26, was seen on camera sitting next to Davis, 69, in the VIP section of an NFL game at Allegiant Stadium in Vegas in December 2022, sparking romance rumors.

At the time, the performer posted a photo from her seat but later outlined she was simply friends with Davis, and nothing more. 

Hopkins took to social media on Sunday to lash out at those who are continuing to fuel rumors of a romance, accusing them of ruining what should be the happiest time in her life. 

‘Reports of Mark Davis being the father of my child are wildly untrue,’ Hopkins wrote. 

‘I was pictured sitting next to him at a game in 2022 and have endured false rumors of a romantic relationship since. 

‘I was just a guest sitting in the owner’s box with other friends. 

‘These continued media stories are negatively affecting what should be my happiest days. 

‘Joey and I are excited to welcome our baby in the fall xx’.

She previously addressed comments they were romantically involved. 

‘MD [Mark Davis] is a legend,’ she told a social media commenter. 

‘He’s my neighbor/friend. Fun game.’ 

The pair were also spotted last year when the Raiders took on the Green Bay Packers. 

On that occasion, David was caught on camera venting his frustration while Hopkins sat by his side wearing a black Raiders baseball cap.

But such appearances only served to further speculation the pair were dating. 

‘So kind of Mark Davis to take his granddaughter to the game today,’ one wrote.

‘Ayo who’s that girl Mark Davis is sitting with??? I see you, Mark,’ another commented.

Last month, Hopkins posted a black and white photo of herself standing on the sea shore with a small pregnancy bump clearly visible. 

She captioned the photo simply: ‘Baby’. 

The photo generated a host of comments suggesting the baby belonged to Davis.

‘The Heir to The Raiders Throne!’ wrote one poster. 

‘Setting up that kids future and your own. Cha-Ching,’ added a second. 

‘Future Raiders owner incoming’, wrote a third.

The Vegas dancer is originally from Seattle, Washington but has lived in Vegas since 2017 when she took on the role of ‘La Belle’ in the Treasure Island Cirque Du Soleil’s Mystere. 

Before settling down in Vegas, she won national dance titles and lived in New York City to get her bachelor’s degree in dance. 

By the age of 19, she had been on the cover of Dance Spirit and Dance Informa magazine. 

Hopkins has performed alongside singer Jason Derulo and appeared on Good Morning America. 

She also was seen as a dancer on Jimmy Kimmel Live. 

Hopkins celebrated her performance multiple times on social media and showed off her tiny blue outfit and flexibility. 

She is a social media influencer with about 221,000 followers on social media. 

When she is not posting about her latest dance moves or showing off her flexibility, she tends to show off her slim figure in bikini photos.
