Model Kelly Kay, Spencer Webb family in messy paternity feud

The family of late former Oregon tight end Spencer Webb is questioning Instagram model Kelly Kay’s claim that he is the father of her newborn child.

Kay gave birth to a son, named Spider, in late March, naming him after Webb, who died in a diving accident last July.

Webb’s older brother, Cody, issued a statement to the Sacramento Bee saying that their family has hoped Kay would take a DNA test to confirm the baby’s fatherhood, but that she has been “unwilling to compromise.”

“Our family has tried to focus on our grieving process since the passing of our brother, son, and nephew. We grieve both individually and as a family, trying to cope with this tragedy. In the first hours after Spencer passed, and only a few days after they met, Kelly began talking about the possibility of being pregnant,” the Webb family said in a statement to the outlet.

“Since Spencer isn’t able to handle this situation himself, we have tried to navigate this sensitive space as a family. That being said, our family has doubts and concerns regarding the paternity of this child for a multitude of reasons. Until this point, we’ve remained silent in hopes that a DNA test would confirm Spencer as the father.

“Unfortunately, Kelly has been unwilling to compromise regarding the manner in which the DNA test is collected. Due to the inability to agree on a suitable DNA collection process, we wanted to put together a statement and timeline to help provide the family’s perspective on these circumstances.”

The statement included a timeline that claimed Kay’s first contact with Spencer Webb came 16 days before he died, and that the two first met in person less than a week before the accident.

The statement also said that they have been unable to come to an agreement on the parameters of the paternity test, including the Webb family’s desire to conduct it at a “neutral” site, with somebody from their side present.

Kay refuted the claims over several Instagram Stories posted Friday, saying she had indeed already gotten a test and that Spencer is definitively Spider’s father.

“There’s two sides to every story and there’s a lot of family drama that I shouldn’t even have to bring up, its nobody’s business,” Kay said in an Instagram story. “I’m not trying to put my dead baby daddy’s family drama out there like that.

“I have amazing relationships with Spencer’s mom and sisters. I worked with Spencer’s mom and an attorney to get a legal DNA test in order to get Spencer’s name on the birth certificate. … We did that, me and his mom, and Spider did the DNA test.

“Obviously its his kid, you can look at him and tell it’s his kid.”

Kay also noted that Cody, who is Webb’s stepbrother on his father’s side, is the one who held up the DNA testing, though Kay says she was able to get it through Webb’s mother.

“Spencer’s brother, who can’t even give a DNA test because its not his full brother is trying to come for me,” she said. “That side of the family has been awful to me throughout my pregnancy and throughout this whole process.

“His mom’s side has been amazing and supportive and wonderful. It’s his brother on his dad’s side, who Spencer knocked out when at age 18 when he left him and didn’t like and had issues with, is the one who’s coming for me.”

Kay also wrote that she would be suing for defamation and getting a protective order.
