Finley Elaine Griffin is Blake Griffin’s youngest child- but the pro basketball player’s family life has become a bit of a hot topic in recent times.
After his relationship with his ex broke down, Blake has been dealing with the fallout.
So what exactly has been going on?
Finley Elaine Griffin
Finley Elaine Griffin was born in September 2016 to parents Blake Griffin and his then-fiancée Brynn Cameron.
Their daughter has been kept firmly out the limelight since her birth, but their son Ford Wilson has become much more used to the cameras.
The couple welcomed Ford into the world in August 2013, and at the time of his birth, it seemed that Blake and Brynn were happy.
They would often be snapped on days out together, and looked the absolute picture of happiness.

Relationship Breakdown
Blake and Brynn originally planned to marry on 28th July 2017.
While it seemed like the couple were busy making romantic wedding plans, the cracks started to show when an oral agreement between the pair went south.
Apparently Brynn and the sports star had agreed that she would quit her job to raise their kids so he could focus on getting a max NBA contract, which would be worth well over $170 million.
In exchange, Brynn says Blake had:
“promised explicitly that, whatever the future might hold, he would take care of [me] financially and provide a home for the rest of [my] life.”
About a month before they were due to get hitched, Blake Griffin had turned around and asked his partner to sign a prenup, which would protect his finances if they would ever split.
Brynn refused, and said this contradicted their initial agreement.
Blake Griffin then cancelled their wedding.

While the pair were still in couple’s therapy, the basketball star began partying and dating other women, and Brynn Cameron was understandably upset.
According to court documents, she said:
“What would have been his wedding day, he was partying in Las Vegas”.
According to sources, this is when they officially split, and Blake stopped paying financial support for his kids.
Dating Life
At this point, the basketball pro was beginning to get close to supermodel Kendall Jenner, which made matters a LOT worse.
Rumours started growing that the pair were dating after they were spotted on several cosy dates together. Kendall even went to watch Blake play during his matches, which Brynn was apparently furious about.
While Blake and Kendall never officially confirmed their relationship, Brynn Cameron was getting ready to launch into action.
She eventually sued Blake Griffin for child support after she claimed he violated his parental duties. Brynn also said that her ex had abandoned her and the kids in his effort to pursue Kendall.

In her court documents she said:
“[Blake has] cared more about the glamour of dating a Hollywood celebrity than the day-to-day responsibilities of being a father and a family man.”
Blake Griffin promised to respond to his ex in court, and things went quiet between the pair for a while. His relationship with Kendall also fizzled out.
Despite the speculation in the press that the former couple were still at loggerheads, they eventually released a joint statement:
“The recent reports of the financial details of the child support agreement between Blake Griffin and Brynn Cameron are inaccurate.
Both sides have settled amicably and are moving forward with co-parenting their two children.”
Blake Griffin and Brynn Cameron finally settled their lawsuit one year later, and requested that the court dismiss the “entire action of all parties and all cause of actions”.
The basketball player is now dating entrepreneur Francesca Aiello.
