Alexandra Davis has come out to speak openly against Jerry Jones who is supposedly her father. According to the lawsuit, she claims that Jones paid her and her mother Cynthia Davis Spencer $375,000 to remain silent about their relationship that dated back to 1995. After the court’s order to Jones, this is what Davis’ lawyer Kris Hayer had to say-

Alex is in a position where she really no longer has to hide her truth or live under the thumb of fear and maybe she’s going to finally get some peace and we hope other families will have that same benefit from the judge following the law.”
