The Los Angeles Rams‘ star wide receiver, Puka Nacua, and his girlfriend, Hallie Aiono, started dating in 2021. Hallie, being more than 8 months pregnant and happily waiting for her unborn child to step into the world, a gloomy chapter unfolds in their life. Puka and Hallie celebrated the gender reveal ceremony in May. But things took a turn later when Hallie went to the Los Angeles County court for parental custody of her unborn child. It is still unclear if Puka and Hallie broke up after this, but the “pregnant content creator’s” Instagram gives us news time and again.

Just a few months back, both were spotted around Los Angeles. But now Hallie has completely scrubbed Puka from her Instagram. She even celebrated a baby shower on 21st September without Puka, and now she has made another amusing announcement, without Puka. This week, Hallie shared photos on Instagram, giving fans a peek into her second baby shower. She even dropped a subtle hint about the baby’s name.

Hallie celebrated “Baby K” with her “California family friends.” “Celebrated Baby K yesterday with my California family and friends. My sisters are THE BEST party throwers, I am so lucky they put yesterday together to shower us with so much love at CAFE BEBE. Sid and Tay have carried me and my son through this whole pregnancy and have showed up for me in my darkest, most vulnerable times consistently. My son is so lucky to have them as his aunties, and I can’t wait for him to experience their unconditional love forever,” she captioned the post.

“I am so grateful to have these opportunities to be reminded of how many people I have in my corner who have checked on and supported me and my son these past nine months. Thank you to everyone who showered us with love yesterday. I will never take for granted any opportunity to celebrate my son. I can’t wait to meet you, my sweet boy.” She further added.

For the Occasion, she adorned a lacy, all white outfit. She showed off her baby bump with a skirt and a matching top. She styled her hair in a sleek bun and posed, gently carding her bump.

Puka’s battles outside of the gridiron

According to TMZ Sports, Aiono has filed a petition in Los Angeles County to legally establish her unborn child’s father as Nacua. She is requesting joint legal custody but seeks full physical custody once the child is born, granting Nacua visitation rights only. Additionally, Aiono is pursuing financial support from Nacua to cover birth-related expenses and attorney fees.

Just a few months ago, the pair appeared inseparable, sharing posts about each other and even hosting a gender reveal party together. What caused the shift in their relationship remains unclear. Nacua, 23, has stayed publicly silent about the situation, while continuing to play a key role on the Rams’ field.

Puka and Hallie met first when he was still a student at Brigham Young University. Hallie, who grew up in Phoenix, Arizona, has three siblings, including Alex Aiono, the famous singer Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin actor who first to fame through his viral YouTube cover.

Hallie Aiono was by Puca’s side as he stepped into the NFL, cheering from the sidelines, dancing on TikTok, and celebrating their pregnancy announcement in May 2025. Yet, as quickly as Nacua rose to football fame, his personal life unraveled, and their relationship now appears fractured beyond repair.
