Drake has just filed a shocking lawsuit against a woman name Layla Lace who claims he got her pregnant, saying she’s hatched a baby scam and made false rape allegations against him. In April 2017, she posted on Instagram and for the first time claimed she was pregnant, saying, “So I guess still in this era this is the new thing that after you tell a dude you pregnant they stop answering they phone!!!”
According to the lawsuit, she then threatened to publicly leak messages from Drake. She made good on her threat and went on SiriusXM and announced Drake got her pregnant.
The suit goes on to allege in May 2017, Layla hired a lawyer and demanded money for her alleged baby and threatened him with defamation because TMZ posted a story saying Drake had never even met her. The suit claims Layla refused to take a paternity test and Layla and her lawyer went radio silent. Drake says the whole thing was a scam … “There is no credible evidence of pregnancy, nor any baby, which would have been born last Fall.”
According to the lawsuit, Layla switched tactics and went to authorities in New York and alleged Drake had raped her during their one-night stand. Drake says at that point Layla hired a new lawyer who demanded money or else they would make the rape complaint public. According to the suit, the case was referred to Manchester police, who interviewed Drake and ultimately cleared him. According to Drake it wasn’t over. He says in the suit Layla then demanded millions of dollars in exchange for silence. Drake is suing her for civil extortion, emotional distress, fraud, defamation, and abuse of process.
