Anansa Sims Accuses Matt Barnes of Infidelity with Eight Women

Anansa Sims, fiancée of former NBA player Matt Barnes, has publicly accused him of infidelity with eight women in January alone. Sims took to social media to reveal the names of the women and the dates of the alleged encounters, intensifying the drama surrounding their relationship.

Engaged since December 2022, Sims and Barnes have faced many ups and downs, with this latest claim coming just months after the birth of their second child, Austin Matthew Barnes, in October. The couple, who first met in the 1990s and rekindled their romance in 2018, have navigated public breakups, including Sims filing a restraining order against Barnes in 2020.

They also star in the reality TV show The Barnes Bunch on WE tv.

Sims‘ social media posts included emotional captions and tagged Instagram handles of the alleged women, including reality TV star Masika Kalysha, who Sims claims was involved with Barnes since the summer of 2024.

The public allegations have sparked strong reactions on social media, with some expressing support for Sims and others questioning the disclosure’s public nature. Matt Barnes has yet to comment on the accusations.

The couple, who have seven children together, is now facing a scandal that could affect their relationship and have ramifications for their blended family and reality show.
