Dwight Howard has a son, Braylon Howard born in 2007, with Royce Reed. She recently revealed that he’s not been a present father figure. During her appearance on VladTV, Reed stated that Howard has not listed himself as Braylon’s father on paper.
In her interview with Carlos King, she revealed that Howard never added his name to Braylon’s birth certificate. She elaborated on that on VladTV. “He still hasn’t signed Braylon’s birth certificate… his name is still not on there.”
Royce Reed had a lot to say about Dwight Howard during her interview with King. The mention of her son’s birth certificate is still a discussion in the NBA fan community. She said that Howard was not on board almost immediately after finding out she was pregnant. He allegedly tried to get her to sign an NDA and refused to add his name to the birth certificate and baby registry.

She was harsh about his opinion at that time. On VladTV, she had a slightly different stance. His child support payments to Reed went from $2,500 to $13,000, but she wanted him to be more present in Braylon’s life.
That’s not been the case though. He tried to provide with other means. He offered to buy her a house and car, but it would be in his name. Her parents cautioned her against it and she refused. Instead, Howard paid for the nanny, which also turned awry. Reed is however trying to maintain a stable co-parenting relationship.

Reed and Howard dated when he was playing with Orlando Magic and she was one of the dancers on the team.
Though they hung out a lot, their relationship began only when she broke up with her previous boyfriend. “I started enjoying being around him,” she said adding that his personality was the biggest attraction.
Their relationship fell apart after their son was born. Reed revealed that her legal team advised her to demand for child support. But she kept the demands to a minimum so she’d not be perceived as a gold-digger.
