Judge Dismisses Ex-NFL Player's Lawsuit Over Ex-Wife's Intimate Comments
A federal judge has dismissed a lawsuit filed by former NFL offensive lineman Matt Kalil against his ex-wife, model and social media personality Haley Kalil, over her public comments about their intimate life. The ruling, issued on September 18, 2026, found that Haley Kalil's remarks were protected speech on a matter of legitimate public concern. The lawsuit stemmed from comments Haley Kalil made during a Twitch livestream in November 2025. During the appearance, she discussed the physical difficulties she said the couple experienced during their marriage and made a graphic comparison regarding Matt Kalil's anatomy, describing it as "two Coke cans, maybe even a third." The comments quickly went viral, prompting Matt Kalil to file suit in January 2026. In his complaint, Matt Kalil sought a jury trial and damages exceeding $75,000. He argued that the public remarks exposed him to unwanted scrutiny and invasive commentary, and that the fallout extended to his family, including his current wife, who allegedly received disturbing messages. He also claimed Haley Kalil had benefited financially from the attention. U.S.
