Professional dancer and choreographer Hayden Hopkins has broken her silence after her pregnancy announcement and subsequent rumors that she was expecting a child with Las Vegas Raiders owner Mark Davis.
A report surfaced on X stating that Davis and dancer and choreographer Hayden Hopkins are expecting a child together after much internet chatter.
However, it wasn’t true.
Hopkins quickly dispelled the rumor.
“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.”

Hopkins was first spotted seated next to Davis in his luxury box during the Raiders’ game against the Los Angeles Chargers on Dec. 4, leading many to believe they were dating. On that occasion, Davis was caught on camera venting his frustration while Hopkins sat by his side wearing a black Raiders baseball cap.
Some assumed the Raiders owner was her child’s father after her revelation and the rumor that she and Mark Davis had been dating for two years.
The former Cirque Du Soleil dancer shared a photo from her seat on her Instagram stories.
“Haha, MD is a legend! He’s my neighbor/friend,” Hopkins told a fan about her neighbor and friend Mark Davis, or as she calls him, MD. “Fun game.”
Hopkins announced her pregnancy on Instagram last month.

During games over the years, Mark Davis could be seen showing his frustration at his team losing games.
According to NFL Network‘s Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero, last year, he was reportedly “increasingly impressed” with the job interim coach Antonio Pierce had done after he fired Josh McDaniels.
Rapoport and Pelissero noted that “Davis is a believer that you need a big name in Las Vegas.” Despite that, he would ultimately listen to his players and fans and hire Pierce as the new head coach.
Davis is hoping the team can one day return to greatness.
