Ex-wife of former NFL star makes request to judge after being sued for 'invasive' manhood size comments
Haley Kalil, the ex-wife of NFL star Matt Kalil, has made a request to a judge after her former husband sued her over alleged remarks in which she indicated his penis was 'like two Coke cans on top of each other'.
Haley, who split from Matt in 2022, was believed to be referring to Matt's manhood when she appeared on a livestream with streamer Marlon Garcia last year and suggested that his anatomy was a factor in their decision to split up.
"I was going to try it all. We tried it all: therapist, doctors. Not even lying… Looked up lipo-type s**t…," she said.
"That’s why it’s kinda funny. It’s like my life is a comedy, and it kinda writes itself. That was the biggest factor... Love him, but he’s my homie. We’ve tried, impossible unless you’re going to be in tears type s**t."

In the wake of the comments, Matt filed a lawsuit against Haley claiming her remarks resulted in 'unwanted attention and invasive commentary from the public'.
However, Haley has now hit back with a plea to the judge asking for the lawsuit to be dismissed.
In legal documents obtained by TMZ Sports, Haley accused Matt of cherry-picking her comments and stood by the remarks she'd made about why the couple broke up.
Haley claimed Matt had a 'specific anatomical incompatibility that rendered a normal sexual relationship impossible', adding they'd had a 'loving union that was ultimately hindered by an unfortunate physical incompatibility'.
The request further accuses Matt of trying to 'hold a woman in the public eye civilly liable for providing a truthful, autobiographical account of sexual trauma she suffered and described as having led to the end of a highly publicized celebrity marriage with an NFL football star'.
In response to Haley's attempts to have the lawsuit dismissed, Matt's team responded to tell TMZ Sports: "Haley Kalil's motion to dismiss does not dispute the fact that she wantonly disclosed private and intimate details about Matt Kalil that resulted in widespread ridicule and unwanted attention."
Ryan Saba, of Rosen Saba LLP, added that a 'spouse does not have a right to expose private and confidential marital and sexual details for the purpose of profiting'.
"We expect that the motion will be completely denied," Saba said.
Haley's lawyer, Matthew Bialick, fired back with a statement of his own to TMZ Sports, saying: “We moved to dismiss the complaint because Minnesota has a longstanding commitment to free speech, which is important now more than ever.
"Allowing a lawsuit to proceed against a woman for sharing a truthful, autobiographical account of sexual trauma would directly undermine those core values.
"We believe the motion will be granted."
