Carmelo Anthony Daughter: Who Is Genesis?

May 2024 · 3 minute read

Carmelo faced criticism in 2019 for supposedly abandoning his marriage to LaLa Anthony. Mia Burks called him out for failing to step up but later praised him for fulfilling his duties.

Lala and Carmelo were married for 11 years before Lala filed for divorce in 2021, citing irreconcilable reasons. It was their second time separating.

They split up in 2017 due to an alleged affair, although they appeared to reunite in 2018. Kiyan Carmelo Anthony, their 14-year-old son, is a shared child. 

In related news, Carmelo spoke on the July 31 demise of NBA and Celtics legend Bill Russell, 88. “A champion who revolutionized the game for all of us,” Carmelo tweeted.

In so many ways, Bill Russell was an inspiration to me. He may now rest in peace. According to ESPN, Bill died quietly with his wife by his side. Bill, a member of the Hall of Fame, amassed a total of 11 championships during his career.

La La Anthony and Carmelo Anthony were regarded as a power couple in athletics. 

However, everything changed in 2017 when the NBA player’s cheating scandal broke. Carmelo and his wife La La already had a son at the time.

Genesis, allegedly the child of Carmelo’s lover Mia Burk, was born in August 2017. She just hosted a birthday party for herself, and the athlete was there.

Genesis is raised solely by Burk, a Saint Augustine’s University graduate. She has an Applied Sciences Bachelor’s degree in Biology and Public Health. 

Burk later attended the esteemed Northwestern University to earn a Master’s degree in Health Communication.

Burk works as the Director of Special Projects at six ReGeneration schools in Chicago to make ends meet. She also provides active parental care for her daughter, Genesis.
