The bitter war of words between former NFL star Matt Kalil and his ex-wife Haley is reportedly heading to the courts after he took exception to her very public comments about his manhood.
Kalil, who played for the Vikings and Panthers, married Haley in 2015 and the pair were together for seven years before their split, and she claimed recently that the breakdown in their marriage was in part due to intimacy issues.
On a podcast appearance that quickly went viral, she opened up about the size of his manhood, describing his penis as ‘two coke cans, maybe even a third’.
The suit filed against Haley includes a series of screenshots of messages purportedly sent to Keilani, which Kalil claims have become ‘increasingly frequent, disturbing and alarming in nature over time.’
In addition, the ex-NFL star alleges that Haley has ‘been able to financially benefit from this surge in traffic’, while he is left to deal with the consequences.
Kalil, now 36, is suing for invasion of privacy and unjust enrichment, requesting a jury trial and damages, with the amount exceeding $75,000.
The Daily Mail has reached out to both Matt and Haley with a request for comment.
Speaking to TMZ, though, Haley said in response to the lawsuit: ‘Litigation is a harrowing and emotionally draining experience, and I am heartbroken that he is choosing to subject us and our families to this ordeal.’
The media appearance in question came back in November, when Haley appeared on a Twitch livestream with internet personality Marlon, going on to reveal the ‘biggest factor’ in her split from Matt.
‘We were trying to do the damn thing and [put work into their marriage],’ Haley said before typing something on her phone that she did not wish to say out loud.
She then showed Marlon, before continuing to explain. It appears, from the context of the discussion, that she was suggesting Matt’s proportions were incompatible for her.
‘Deada**… for our whole marriage, deada**. But I was going to try it all. We tried it all: therapist, doctors. Not even lying… Looked up lipo-type s***… That’s why it’s kinda funny. It’s like my life is a comedy, and it kinda writes itself,’ she revealed.
‘That was the biggest factor… Love him, but he’s my homie… No, because he’s like .01 percent of the population. We’ve tried, impossible unless you’re going to be in tears type s***.’
Haley, who was featured as a rookie in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue in 2019, got backlash at the time from some on social media who felt that she was oversharing and violated her ex-husband’s privacy.
‘Darn, that’s a huge breach of trust. Disrespectful,’ wrote one user on X.

Kalil is seemingly furious with the public conversation about his private parts, and TMZ report he has filed a suit against his ex-wife, alleging that her ‘invasive commentary’ has spoiled his attempts to stay out of the public eye.
In the suit, Kalil – who was 6-foot-6 and 315lbs during his career – allegedly claims that he has been subjected to ‘unwanted attention and invasive commentary from the public,’ while his family have ‘been forced to endure the ongoing public circulation of these degrading and deeply personal statements.’
Kalil has since remarried, to model Keilani Asmus in the summer of 2024, and he claims she has received a barrage of disgusting messages on social media about her husband’s manhood.
Haley Kalil revealed back in November that intimacy issues led to her divorce from Matt Kalil
Another commented: ‘U were married to that person. Some things are private. I guess influencers don’t know the difference between private and public; their private lives are for public consumption.’
Haley filed for divorce in 2022, citing ‘irreconcilable differences’, according to TMZ. She says that he is a ‘really good person’ and made her want to be better.
Kalil was a fourth-overall pick in the 2012 NFL Draft for the Minnesota Vikings. After making the Pro Bowl in his rookie season, he’d spend five years with the team before playing for the Carolina Panthers and Houston Texans.
He retired following the 2019 season. Since then, he’s worked alongside his brother and fellow NFL offensive lineman, Ryan Kalil, and started a tequila company.
