Ayesha Curry Responds to Criticism Over On-Screen Kiss With Matthew Daddario

Stephen Curry’s family has another star, but in his wife Ayesha Curry’s case, it’s off the court rather than in a professional sport like Stephen. Ayesha is co-stars in a Hallmark-style romantic holiday movie, Second Chance Holiday, alongside actor Matthew Daddario, on The Roku Channel. And, although it could open the door to more roles of a similar nature, what people are really talking about is an on-screen kiss she shares with Matthew.

In a clip from the movie that was shared on Reddit, Ayesha and Matthew have some serious chemistry. Though to be fair, they are actors, and their role in the Roku movie is to act like they are attracted to each other. Still, people can’t help but bring Stephen into it as they struggle to separate the real Ayesha from her fictional character.

Steph Curry fans are calling out Ayesha Curry for her on-screen kiss.

@chriswilliamstwo I know it’s acting, but this possible kissing scene definitely had me questioning some things 😂 Was that a real kiss or just camera tricks? 👀 #AyeshaCurry #StephCurry #SecondChanceHoliday #Roku #NBA ♬ original sound – Chris Williams

In the clip on Reddit from Ayesha’s movie, she (spoiler alert) plants a pretty authentic-looking smooch on Matthew. But again, because apparently the internet needs to be reminded of this, they are playing fictional characters who fall in love with each other. There is no need for Stephen to throw hands because his wife branched out to explore a new career.

But in the comments on Reddit, some users suggested that Stephen pull up a chair to watch the show. Or, to be more exact, a cuck chair that many believe is placed in the corner of most hotel rooms. Another trouser commented to say that men in particular are upset about Ayesha kissing her scene partner.

“Can’t be real,” someone else commented on the post. “But if it is, she enjoyed that way too much.”

“Dang Curry constantly getting disrespected by her,” another Redditor added. “Any other man with the options he has would have bailed a long time ago.”

To his credit, Stephen did not enter the chat. But that hasn’t stopped people from bringing his name into this as they criticize Ayesha for kissing her co-star.

Someone also suggested in the Reddit thread, “She just wanted an excuse to kiss someone other than Steph. I feel bad for him, he seems like a good dude.”

Some people are confused that Ayesha Curry is an actor now.

In the same post, Reddit users questioned why Ayesha is pursuing acting at all.

“She just randomly decided to become an actor. What happened to that restaurant of hers?” Someone questioned on the Reddit post.

To that, a user responded, “Lol Buddy…She was trying to be an actor before Steph. They started dating because she was in LA trying to act, he was at the ESPYs, he hit her up and the rest is history. They knew each other before Steph was even known at Davidson.”

She is the co-owner of the San Francisco franchise International Smoke, she co-founded the organization Eat. Learn. Play. Foundation with Stephen, and she has a skincare brand. So clearly, the next thing for Ayesha to explore, possibly just for funsies, was a small screen acting career.

Ayesha Curry responded to the criticism about that kiss.

After the internet came for Ayesha and dragged her husband into it, she spoke out in response to the apparent backlash. In response to yet another shared clip of the kiss scene on X (formerly Twitter), Ayesha tweeted, “It’s not even real. You guys are annoying.” She didn’t take any further than that, though, and her response seemed to end there.

Who knew that doing your job as an actor would affect so many people?
