Ex-girlfriend of Rams receiver Puka Nacua alleges abuse amid ongoing civil lawsuit
Hallie Aiono posted a TikTok describing personal abuse and betrayal, while a civil assault suit filed by Madison Atiabi against Puka Nacua proceeds.
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua is facing a civil assault lawsuit filed by former teammate Madison Atiabi as the offseason continues. In a TikTok video that has gone viral, Hallie Aiono, who dated Nacua for four years, said she experienced "extreme betrayal, abuse, complete neglect" during their relationship, though she did not name the player. Aiono said the public aspects of the dispute affected her mental health, but private incidents were more damaging. The former couple remain linked through their son, Kingston, born in October 2025.
"I went from loving somebody so deeply for four years, I felt it in my bones, to experiencing extreme betrayal, abuse, complete neglect from them, in what felt like it happened almost overnight," Aiono said in the video.
The lawsuit and Aiono’s statements add personal dimensions to the legal case, which is still pending.
