According to reports, Miles Bridges was granted a temporary restraining order against his ex, Mychelle Johnson, after claiming she showed up to one of his NBA games looking to harass him, because apparently courts now have to review scouting reports for relationship drama too.
A North Carolina judge signed off on the order, requiring Johnson to stay at least 500 yards away from Bridges, his home, and Charlotte Hornets facilities. That is a massive distance. At 500 yards, she basically has to wave at him from another zip code.
The order also ordered Johnson not to harass Bridges, his current girlfriend Shara, or cyberstalk the NBA forward online, which means somebody in court probably had to seriously discuss Instagram activity, screenshots, burner accounts, and subtweets like it was an FBI investigation.
The order comes after Miles made bombshell claims in court docs, saying his ex “abandoned” their four kids with a nanny, drove to the Spectrum Center while intoxicated, rented a room at a nearby hotel, stationed an accomplice in the lobby, and crouched behind Miles’ parked car at the facility’s garage to “tamper with its tires while he was on the court playing for the Charlotte Hornets.”
Miles said his girlfriend, Shara, and his kids with Shara were inside the center, claiming Mychelle “knew those children had ridden in that vehicle” and “did not care.”
The petition also claims Mychelle launched a cyberattack on him and his lawyer in the days following. He claimed she created a fake phone number to send him a text with his home address to scare him.Miles said Mychelle also contacted his lawyer, pretending to be another woman claiming to be pregnant by the NBA star. Miles said his team even set up a paternity test because they believed it to be real.
Modern romance is truly beautiful but mostly chaotic after breakup.
Miles also claimed Mychelle told their kids that they would never attend his NBA games “because his girlfriend will be there.” He said she tells their kids he is uninterested in seeing them, which he insists is false.
For now, the restraining order is temporary, and the situation could still develop further. But one thing is certain: Bridges probably wanted people talking about his basketball game, not courtroom paperwork.
Unfortunately for him, the internet loves drama more than defense, and judging by the reactions online, this story is nowhere near the final buzzer yet.
